“The magical play of life goes on, and you may contribute a verse”

Love this Whitman quote, brought more attention by Robin Williams in the Dead Poet’s Society, a movie I habitually watch every October

Life will continue once your days have passed. What mark do you want to leave in this world? How will you give the world your true self with your time here? 

Some questions I continuously ponder

 A Saturday morning thought in bed

I believe that artisans and creators are going to become more and more prominent as we move into the future 

The AI revolution has the possibility of taking away many jobs. Couple that with a deflationary currency that creates more abundance over less scarcity

What do you get? A society of inherently creative creatures, not needing to run on the treadmill to make ends meet, but rather seeking refuge in work to find peace of mind and soul 

Maybe this is just me being an idealist and a craftsmen at heart

But I believe history moves in cycles, it burns previous ways of living to the ground and restores itself into something greater 

Just a #thought

 My grandmother passed away recently. She was an amazing woman and our relationship was something special

This grievance period has been interesting. I have found myself putting my emotional energy into areas of life which surprised me. While other areas of my life I haven’t bothered putting much energy into at all

I found that when you experience a period of such intense emotions, two things to pay attention to;

i. How, and what you choose to transmute your emotional energy towards

ii. What aspects of your feel of lesser importance and which aspects of higher 

Often these difficult periods can reveal hidden aspects of your true self coming out, as you are leading with emotion over logic

Think about a time that was difficult for you emotionally. What did you spend your time doing to feel better? How did you transfer that energy? What parts of your life could you care less about? 

Something to think about

 I would say I’m a spiritual person 

A wise woman once said to me;

‘When you not in alignment with who you are meant to be, it creates friction. The friction may be minuscule, but try to pay attention to see if your energy is out of sorts’ 

 ‘if your energy is out of sorts’, speaks to moments when you don’t quite feel like you

Perhaps it’s anger, perhaps exhaustion, perhaps cynicism coming to the surface 

When you look at things in the form of inputs and outputs and alignment of energy, it can sound complex, but can actually reduce complexity

It can subtly inform you if you’re spending your days here aligned with who you are meant to be 

What outputs/energy are you receiving from your inputs? Is this energy vibrating smoothly, or is there friction/ disruption? 

Quite spiritual, I know. But in a world where religion increasingly fades, we need certain perspectives to help us simplify the complexities of life and purpose

 I moved 2,500km from my partner, family and friends for a work project 

In that first week of moving, I was Orange Pilled, going down a deep rabbit hole

Since then, I’ve spent 6 months in partial solitude, away from those whose thoughts influence most, which has had its difficult moments

However, when you combine;
+ getting orange pilled 
+ a mind in solitude away from influence
+ a work project for a highly capital driven, Fortune10 company

You get 
= a realization of what truly matters to you in life

This temporary move has been quite difficult to navigate, dampening the relationship with my partner

However the mental, emotional, spiritual awakening that has been achieved, makes it feel like this was meant to be 

Just a little glimpse into my life

 A wise friend once told me;

‘Give the world the highest expression of you in the form of your energy’ 

That stuck with me. Our time here is so limited. We get extremely caught up in the rat race, that we are doing ourselves a disservice by holding back our true form of expression to the world

Our soul is 1 of 1. Made up of what our child-self enjoyed the most, mixed with a lifetime of learnings and experiences

How might we best give the world a look into that soul? 

How might we transmute that energy spent on things which parch our soul, towards things which satiate it?

Something to think about as each day goes by

 Are you doing the right thing for you? 

 If you’re holding your #bitcoin on an exchange or ETF, don’t. You’re helping the big dawgs suppress the real price 

It’s just the same as fractional banking at this point. They don’t have that amount of #btc, it’s just IOU’s that aren’t reflecting the true market price

Move your funds into your #selfcustody as soon as you can, and tell other people to do the same

 A bitcoin world can really make you rethink the path you are on in life

How do you individually give value to the world? How can you give more of that and evolve it even further into the future? 

When the money is deflationary, you organically put more thought into these questions - not just who you are as a way to make ends meet financially

 Been thinking a lot on ‘purity’. 

Purity, incorruptible

#bitcoin is pure digital money 
#nostr is pure digital connection

It fascinates me to think about what’s to come

‘Pure’ food? 
‘Pure’ education? 
‘Pure’ politics?

What will the world become when corruptible money can longer influence all aspects of our lives. 

Maybe this is naive, idealist of me. 

Or maybe it isn’t 

I wonder

 “On Identity”, Amin Maalouf,1998 

An almost 30-year old read which could easily be mistaken as published in 2024 due to its relevancy. 

Highlighted is this notion of a ‘global village’

A globalized, unified world. Currently unfolding before our eyes

What better way to fast track the inevitable ‘global village’ than a global currency built entirely on trust. Breaking through geography, religion and language. 

The foundation of one’s identity

 One day I want my own studio to physically create and hone my craft

No jumping on work meetings and plugging in digitally for hours on end 

One day

 Nostr feels like a breathe of fresh air 

A little more peace and quiet 

When you start meditating on values, you organically come across things in alignment

Where self realization continuously evolves

 I find it fascinating, we all have infinite creative potential

One may think they lack that creative, right brain 

But it’s just a matter of how and where we trasmute that finite energy each day

It would come to a shock how much is really there
