3rd Eye Vision

3RD EYE VISION

Whoohoohoo yeah

I heard you saying it wont' make a difference

It's only you and it's just this once yeah

It's only this time

Don't you think that it all adds up

There's a reaction for each action many drips fill the cup

Where do you draw the line

Know thyself and to thine own self be true

Any other way is gonna make you feel blue yeah

Ya gotta reason to be here

Hey maybe if we focus and we get it together

We could raise the human consciousness and make things better yeah

I know you think I'm a dreamer

But I know that you're also seeking peace of mind

Wonderin' why you feel so tired why your third eye's blind

I know that you're also trying to find your place

Somewhere out in time and somewhere out in space

Get so exhausted from all the exhaust

From living in fear , from living in a box hey

How come we always have to drive

I keep wishing corporations, and the politicians

Would make tighter restrictions on our fossil fuel emissions and meanwhile

Why don't we walk

If we all did a little then a lot would be done

We could clean up the mess and try to have some fun yeah

I'm off to plant a tree now

Cause if everybody takes and nobody gives

There'll soon be no air to breathe and no where to live

But you can't stop mother nature

But I know that you're also seeking peace of mind

Wonderin why you feel so tired why your third eye's blind

I know that you're also trying to find your place

Somewhere out in time and somewhere out in space

Did you remember to give thanks for the food

The earth air the water and everything good

The fire's still burnin'

Talk to yourself cause no one knows you better

Even take the time to write yourself a letter

To know the wheels are still turnin'

There's no better time than now to stand up straight

Take a deep breath Lord it's never too late to

Exhale your confusion

They say its all been done and there's no sense trying

But they don't really know you and they're probably lying

You got to see for yourself yeah

But I know that you're also seeking peace of mind

Wonderin why you feel so tired why your third eye's blind

I know that you're also trying to find your place

Somewhere out in time and somewhere out in space

- Mishka

This is a song that I found by a great reggae artist named Mishka. The song is great, but I think the lyrics are truly inspiring and makes me want to fine tune my "3rd Eye Vision." I think that this vision is a great concept and think that it is through your 3rd eye vision that people need to live their lives. But where does this 3rd eye vision come from? This is all just my own perspective and thinking but I feel like your 3rd eye vision comes from your heart, and God can use this to help you live out the plan that he has for you and your life. I think that the most difficult part to gain this vision is staying open and becoming foolish in the world's eye's. Just like it says in Bible:

"Don't fool yourself. Don't think that you can be wise merely by being

up-to-date with the times.

Be God's fool - that's the path to true wisdom.

What the world calls smart, God calls stupid. "

- 1 Corinthians 3:18 (message)

Not sure if Mishka meant all of this when he wrote this song above, but his lyrics really resonated with my heart and mind and I truly listen to this song with a different perspective. Check out the rest of his album it is all great!

Brittle Existence

Recently I have been so amazed by life and different paths that are available everyday! You can tell that our existence here on the Earth was so carefully and thoughtfully put together and yet it is so brittle in our own eyes that the slightest change we believe could be fatal. But I don't think that any more I feel invigorated, excited, and almost impatient for the next slightest change hoping to break the daily routine and force me out comfort zone where you know you are suppose to be! It is so easy to get caught up with life and before you know it days, weeks, and months go by before you know it.

Earlier during my drives around today from Houston to Pearland to Lake Jackson and back home I was listening to a book by Marcus Buckingham in which he stated that you should find out what you don't want to do in life and stop doing it as quick as you can. Cut it out of your life and never look back in order to obtain sustained success in your life... (paraphrased of course) How profound but yet so simple! I am trying to take this to heart and really try to work on this on a daily basis to ensure that I stay the course that was set out for me and my life. Of course this sounds so straightforward but every day is challenge to continue to attempt to bring everything in focus and clarity, but yet it is so easily blurred, distorted, forgotten, and almost suppressed until that AhHA moment which everything is clear and you want to attack whatever it is with all that is in you before you just to see it crumble and disintegrate right in front of your eyes!

Patience is a virtue that I learn everyday... learning to know that I am being prepared for more than I can imagine! I will have VICTORY and choose to live my life and pray everyday that GOD will reveal to me what that is suppose to look like.

AhHA Moments...

Since it has been so long I am all to new to this blogging thing so for that I am going back to the basics. And my return can only be attributed to my AhHA moment. Have you ever had an AhHA moment? For me this moment is something that I have know forever and for some reason had forgotten or been distracted from and yet when you rediscover it in that moment it clarifies and confuses you all over again? The details to my AhHA moment will continue to come in future posts....

However right now as I was updating my profile which was two years plus old good old Albert seemed to have transcend time to confirm parts of my AhHA moment.. in the quote that I used all to long ago. "Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile."
-Albert Einstein.

I am back and will update more as time goes on but I have a lot on my mind!
