Having said that, one of the most interesting phenomenons in modern society is the way people&#8212;especially Americans&#8212;transfer or transpose their own egos into the mirrored [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a little political positivity for today. With all the vitriolic hatred between the right and left in American politics, I&#8217;m so thankful I am not affiliated with either the republican or democratic party. It&#8217;s really asinine to call yourself liberal, conservative, libertarian, progressive or whatever. I&#8217;m basically an anarchist who believes in rugged individualism [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In my own personal struggle for positivity, basically defeating a lifetime of harrowing depression and long being the tortured writer/musician, I reached a plateau where I felt a lack of inner growth&#8212;nothing serious, but still longing for progress. And I found something I&#8217;ve always known, but am just now implementing in a true way. One [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is the Law of Attraction a hoax? If I proclaimed to channel the god Bahghu Mahgufu from the seventh realm of consciousness, wrote a book about it and expected people to believe it&#8212;would that make me a prophet with millions of followers or some self-exalted idiot?

		<description><![CDATA[When you write a fiction story, compose poetry, paint a picture or simply create something great whilst in a fit of inspiration&#8211;do you get the feeling something otherworldly is going on? Do you force it out? Does it just magically appear in your mind?

I&#8217;ve become almost livid over blogging and all the popular themes so prevalent right now.

When considering the vastness of the universe, we believe we have an idea of how big it actually is, but we do not.
