Wilderness

I think the thing I love most about the wild is the fact that it is unapologetically persistent about who it is and who it wants to be, doesn't matter how many times you root out that grass u know it’s gonna grow right back.

I love the wild and untamed and yes that is after taking into consideration the fact that a “wild” animal will rip me apart in no time, but isn't that what it’s supposed to do? Isn't that how it ought to be?  I mean clearly in the case of leopard or a lion it’s better to admire it from a safe distance but let’s not forget the point which is this to be tamed is to be broken, and a broken person or animal is worse than a dead person or animal because it goes against everything that we strive to put down, with our preconceived notions and our expectations over things we have business in.

The wilderness is in my opinion the constant reminder that we are never broken, just really bent. That whatever is thrown at us that we can fight back and actually stand a chance of winning. As we continually pry and find ways to bend nature in its wildest form to fit our minds and believes it finds new ways to fight back and let us know who is in charge.

But really though, what does It really mean to be wild? No, really I wanna know I don’t just mean it in a rhetorical sense.  Like, I am actually asking a question here. You see because naturally when you think of wild, words like untamed and jungle come to mind. And most people don’t mean nice things when they use those words.

The wild is life’s greatest teacher in my opinion, if we will just pay attention.

At the risk of sounding like a hobo, everything in nature…..from the trees to the seas to the waterfalls are all just yearning to teach all they know, which is a lot if I might add. But our pride and unnecessary belief in the fact that we are supreme won’t let us pay attention.

Plus we aren’t really thought to live side by side so all we know is domination and annihilation and well we’d rather be the former than the later right? What am I saying? We can’t even live side by side fellow humans and now I’m talking about all of nature? Somebody smack me in the back of the head please, It’s really hilarious because we still wont accept how much we need it’s help. We will rather cut down all the flowers because plants are a nuisance then replace them with artificial plants.

That makes sense……

Passenger...

I honestly can say that I haven’t heard a passenger song that I didn't like, and it’s not just like the normal “hey! I like this song” it’s liking it, feeling it, relating to it,  understanding it, and I like everything about it, not just the words or his voice, EVERYTHING!  I even like the way he ends his songs. I think at this point considering the depth to which I have fallen hopelessly and completely in love with the dude the only thing that scares me now is that he’ll go mainstream and change his style. That’ll be the most heartbreaking thing that can possibly happen to me and I really don’t know if I can take it. He just has to go on making beautiful music for my listening pleasure.

Okay, moving on, this is by far a most frustrating time in my life, mostly because it involves a lot of sitting and waiting patiently and see that’s the problem, I’m not much of a sit and wait type of person, so I suppose you can say that the universe is trying to teach me a lesson in the act of waiting patiently, sad to say I am failing and horribly for that matter. I’m sure everyone around me can attest to the constant nagging and tinkering. Which is really quite frankly one of the major motivation behind this here blog, it has always been in my head but there has always been something to hinder it from becoming a reality, but now with all the time on my hands I see no reason why not to. Plus I figure constant yammering about my life is one way to help put everything into perspective.

There’s this very annoying thing about me (I’m sure it happens to everybody), sometimes I get a good idea and if I don’t write it down I forget it, and It’s very annoying because later on no matter how hard I  try I am never able to completely recreate it as it was. Which is the story of how this post was born, I was surfing the web and then this idea I have been toying with came together, this is the beginning stage so I’m still super excited about it, the  hard part is gonna be to keep the  blood flowing in that direction.

I’d really love to share it but it’s still too darn early plus I get really insecure about my ideas sometimes especially  this early  on, so….yeah, but here are some clues, it involves cardboard paper, pencils, a map and  power engineering (or google) knowledge…..

hello and welcome

My first post, it took me a whole day and three showers to come to this point. I have become this somewhat fearful and cautious person, not that there is anything wrong with caution but me from  a couple years ago will have absolutely no problem filling this page up with actual, readable gibberish. 

Anyways since we are here I might as well try to be impressive. For starters I have no idea what exactly this blog is/gonna be about which is part of the reason i have been having problems writing down anything, clearly it’s about the things I we love which is quite a few. A little about me, I am a graduate of electrical engineering about to go on and serve, I have a lot of sisters and brothers, biological and otherwise, I have a lover/best friend/foe/partner. I like to think am positive minded cheer giver, argue in your own space. I have the cutest little German Sheppard puppy I call ghost. I am in no particular order a travel/science/photography/fashion/arts/culture lover.

I believe in the ultimate unending triumph of good over evil, I also believe in good karma as well as bad, that every person has a specific and priceless purpose and that we are all connected somehow.

Uhmmm, I suppose this lays a steady enough foundation for anything else I might throw at you in the future.  I realize that it is short and disoriented but hey I studied electrical engineering not letter writing or something like that. Give it time everything will fall into place, it always does……
