Towards infinity

Begin.
Strings, winds, words.
Floating atop a Yellow leaf
a magic carpet of the orient
a wavy rhythm towards
the ocean.

A journey of never-ending
the early sun rising behind
the isles
a feeling of anticipation,
exploration; a voyage
until the light is Orange
and set.

Spread across
the wings of an Eagle
Soar! And fly
to greater distances.

Far into the horizon
only a dot; indistinct
Go! Godspeed! on your
journey towards infinity.

Northern chant

Listen to the chant
in the distance
where smoke escalates
from a clearing.

Follow through.

Towards it
you make your way
shoving branches aside
through pestilent vines
past snakes, webs and lairs.

Logic now is not needed.
Follow through
with heart.

The drumbeats are
louder now
Your hearbeat in synch.
Racing, resounding.

In the clearing
you enter.

Lo behold the stars have aligned!

A beauty in scathed clothing
Wind and water
in a smoky incantation.
The portal of civilization.

The End and A New Beginning

I guess its because of the disparity, the incongruence, the statistical infrequency.

Now it is the end.
A letter sealed in blood compact with contents of enlightenment, signals a pact of condonation.
What has been kept from the world in the innermost depths has emerged, bringing insight and knowledge. It is a thorny nugget burning away under the golden sun. In my realization by what has been sent by this rapid emissary, has brought liberalization to my mind. Soon after by my council brothers, who shall be able to decrypt my message, shall gleam away from ignorance. For in my end the war has officially ended, and that is good.

Comprehension.
One cannot be blamed for wanting to conquer new heights; new lands; to walk on foreign lands and mingle with the locals. Especially, when this one is faced with mounting pressures from his brothers and sisters in his territory. Not to mention, it has become an inherent condition.
One must also understand the complexity of a soldier - his personal ambitions, his long term goals, his family, his wife, his mind, his heart.
The politics of the capital, the senate and the councils may have seen blindheartedly for once. Blame cannot be burdened solely by the soldier.
Here is a council whose members are fully qualified, content, with a goal of greatness, a goal of unity, of values, of rules, of ambitions and civility.
Here is the soldier who shares the same goals of greatness, of unity, of rules and ambitions, but in his heart, in this season it is of conquest, of glory, of yearning for something more and different.
The soldier had voluntarily entered the august council, a newcomer, eager to learn to socialize, to experience a life of robes and earnestness.
But his territory and his innate nature makes him ask for more.
There is clearly a disparity.

Realizations.
Yet the soldier made a least-graceful exit from the august chamber.
Much speculation spread like wildfire. Judgments from here and there condemn his existence.
Soon after, the soldier was spotted in the edge of the council's hold, with the other tribesmen.
Eager to conquer, together they ventured away from the capital.

Stripped of his weapons and armor, the soldier is still human.
A mortal. Only a measly creature to the might of the Gods.
He is no perfect individual, nor one to be praised.
For he is only human, and with human beings
there is so much to be improved on,
there is so much to experience,
much to be learned of his existence.

A New Beginning.
Here is a soldier who ventures off to conquer.
Yet he returns to family, to his tribesmen to his territory.
Let this be a new beginning for the wanderer and for the council.
A new era of openness and enlightenment.

To humanity:
The Mahatma speaks,
Live as if you were to die tomorrow.
Learn as if you were to live forever.

Conclusion

When you really want people and things to be the way you want them - a perfect reality; you must first know that it is a futile attempt.

Understanding the person or event; the reasons for behaviors and occurences, you can transcend the perfection-frustration.

You will be satisfied by contentment; a reality that asks not what you can do to change it, but what you can do to live with it.

Finding a balance in life in the physical, mental and spiritual cornerstones, and developing a hollistic understanding of things is a transcenscion of the average; to a greater level of being.

Chi.

People are People

This is Life!

You will rarely meet a person
of the same substance.

Coping with diversity
is a true test of patience.

You are exposed
to a whole range of frequencies
who are unique in their own,
Amplitudes of behavior
and patterns of attitude.
Where one view is right
and wrong to another.
Much interference!
How much you want everyone to be the same.
A utopia and dream
of Perfection.

But, this is Life!
Freedom is at hand to dwell
at the right frequencies.
There is the will
to believe and hope.

The challenge must go beyond
dreams of the better.
It is in living and surviving.

Transcendence

To transcend is to go beyond.

Perfection cannot be established.
It can be attained.

There is no perfection to be mentioned
for no effort of transcension.

You cannot help but be saddened.
A pitiful sentiment towards
and you ask yourself?
This is hypocrisy!

Live true - transcend
Put forward and strive.
Give that effort to attain
What can not be attained.

A futile attempt?
On Earth it is a struggle
to be human:
With unity of self
Oneness with nature
Peace in spirit.

The actions of mortality
transcension to Tomorrow.

This is Hypocrisy!

There is no problem when one wants to gain new ground.
The problem lies as in all actions
that are generally good,
in the process.
Also, I must thank you
for the past, because it
has generally been good
Until Then
that the past can be
forgotten
For Good
acts will always be more beautiful.
I have no regrets for I have tried
and have tried to help
another's Life
is no longer my concern.

Like the snap of the fingers
oh how quickly Persons Change
because of myths and legends
they have forgotten
reality: men and women.
That is a utopia.
This is Hypocrisy!

"Oh how poor you are
the little baby."
That once determined to loose
a belly full of shortcomings.
On your pretense
how we are labeled: evil
by the hypo crittters in your midst
that talk and talk
and point and point
make fun of people and things.
Laugh all you want,
Wallow in your gluttons,
and Use all objects and people.
Then you shall Receive
after Taking from others.
And the town will laugh back
in humble silence
witnessed by themselves
the contemplative mind
that harms no neighbor.

Then you speak of the Lord.
You speak of the Lord
in a tone of vengeance and
negative didacticity.

One day, you shall Receive
and it is not I that shall Take.

Report on Sleep

Did you know, 1/3 of our life is devoted to a simple act of sleep?

What is sleep?
Sleep is a natural and periodic state of rest.

Everybody needs sleep! It is just the way of things! You wake up in the morning from sleep; you shut down in the evening and sleep. As simple as that!

How to sleep?
Follow any of these procedural sets to experience sleep.

Criteria A - Natural Sleep
1. You may attain a natural course of sleep through any of the following ways:
a.) Wake up early in the morning, having less than 8 hours of sleep the night before.
b.) Do so much things in a day; physical activities.
c.) Get a prolonged and substantial headache within the day:
i. Soak yourself under the sun
ii. Talk to an annoying person.
iii. Go to class late and in a rush.
iv. Fill your planner with so much things to do.
v. Drink a really cold drink.
vi. or by some other form (SOF)
d.) Eat a really heavy meal - become a happy piggy.
e.) or by some other form (SOF)

2. After these activities, you may proceed with any of the following:
(Do not attempt any stretching activity before or during sleep as this may hamper sleeping efforts. A sleeping apparatus may be required and is highly encouraged to prevent personal injury.)
a.) Prepare your horizontal apparatus or bed and lie down accordingly.
b.) Fluff up your pillows and make yourself comfortable.
c.) Play relaxing music, and position yourself in the bed.
d.) [Literally] Surrender yourself to your sleeping apparatus.
e.) SOF

After a few minutes, a natural course for sleeping shall occur.

Criteria B: Substance Induced Sleep
1. You may attain a course of sleep through any of the following substance induced procedures:
a.) Intake of depressant drugs.
b.) Intake of antihistamine drugs.
c.) Intake of alcoholic beverages.
d.) SOF

2. After conducting the aforementioned, you may proceed with the same procedure as stated in Criteria A-2. It is recommended that procedures in Criteria B-1 be executed in the close proximity of a sleeping apparatus; it may have differing drug onsets.

Differential Diagnosis
The act of sleeping is technically different from being unconscious or in a coma, that's just that.
It is also different from a state of no breathing, or death. To see if someone is sleeping, make sure he/she is breathing, eyes may not necessarily be closed, a hissing sound may emanate from the mouth or nose though not necessarily, and the person wakes up after a few shrugs or by any unpleasant and shocking noise.

What are the benefits of sleep?
Sleep allows the body to regain its energy and strength. One should sleep if he/she is tired; if their mind is going crazy, or if they have nothing else to do. It is not only a good way to pass the time, but also a perfect way to defragment the neural datapaths, so that data stored can be processed and organized for efficient access and data performance.

How do you know if one needs to sleep?
Simply by asking, Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep? How many hours have you slept? or When was the last time you slept? Simple common sense can help you to understand the answers to those questions. If logic, speech and organization fails and common sense becomes uncommon perhaps sleep may be prescribed for both questioner and answeree. It is best if there is a third party so a diagnosis can be properly achieved.
