YOU KNOW YOU GONNA RIDE ON A BLUE HIGHWAY

After a TREMENDOUSLY challenging (lets say BRUTAL) last 10 months, I can finally say with confidence that I see the light at the end of MY tunnel.
It’s happening DEEPAK. Recently among other visceral moments of gratitude and redemption songs, I have been reading some wonderful inspirational stuff by many authors, one being ROBIN SHARMA. (The greatness guide 1&2) Life changing IDEAS if applied. The key being “if applied”. My brain and maybe yours tends to want to react to emotions, as opposed to putting something positive out there every few minutes to oppose being a puppet for emotions engrained in the past. However it works.
One of the messages in one of the books is very irritating but valid.
“ The things that drive you crazy are actually giant opportunities”
(Reframing them very often for me is an epic tug of war from hell)

“The people that press your buttons are actually your greatest teachers”
(Depending on how hard buddy is pressing it, this process may takes weeks for me to get it)

“The issues that make you angry are actually your biggest gifts. Be grateful for them, love them”
(I may have to draw the line at this one. So the oil spill (with those poor birds) and the Israeli blockade and the hunger in Darfur are my greatest gifts? I suppose if I was out there physically on the frontlines making a difference, this one is a stretch, however I understand where it is going, I think)

I have basically found that with humility, responsibility, respecting other people’s boundaries and smiling more, it helps me tune in to the synchronicity and energy around me. That’s all I really know. I don’t know about saving the birds at this point.

I was watching a program on Discovery last night where STEPHEN HAWKING was talking about the REAL possibility of time travel in the future. After his case was concluded, that using WORMHOLES and ACCELERATED SPEED can achieve IT, I concluded in my mind that I really know very little. I truly live in the 1% reality and these notions are in the 99% realm where all the real miracles and indigestable patterns are taking place. I just have to tune in. That’s ok for now though he said sheepishly.
(Maybe it was watching Invictus and Alice In Wonderland on the plane that is helping)
I was recently given a book called the 5 Love Languages to read. This HOKIE title did little to make me want to open the cover, however within seconds of turning to the first page somewhere, I was learning something profound and understanding my girlfriends ways of expressing affection. (Why give me this book) Basically if your partners way of showing love is through touch....and you SELDOM touch her except when in selfish mode......GUESS WHAT? .......COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN. Simple but it resonated. Great messege that was true but I kind of hated it.
Perhaps I should have loved it, oh lord. (If time travel is possible I will be travelling back)
Anyway,my life is in positive flux shall we say. Thanks to the world of the 99% and my grand opportunity to SHUT MY MOUTH and LISTEN for a change, one day at a time. It’s all good today. Talk to me tomorrow.
