End of the week it is, but thank God the sun rising again is enough motivation. Of course its not promised, but we can take our risks in life & momentarily chances. Why not, huh. I just wish it was not easy for your ego to hinder personal growth despite the despair that surrounds our environments. Grimly methods die too quickly before we know what it is that we're actually all doing. Friday nights, I had to sweet chat a few people in order to get righteous food. No shortcuts about it. Why on earth are we always on this bend of the 'me-order' & a flawed system it can be tirelessly? Seriously, don't you feel like things just feels like a waste of time? Huh, go find a club DJ, it could take the edge off & settle for a date over a glass of wine. Cheer up, this is primo design. All a puzzle growing up but I wouldn't ignore nurture meant for you. Trust the blind? Fun, but if you are still beating the air aimlessly, no matter how high of a regard, then its time to look for new dots to connect. This is not a new concept, the trail has always been there. You were just distracted by the hipsters of your league. Well, you would hope to wake up a lot sooner. Abstract. Half the times, pointless. Unless you supplement your days to what counts to why you are fuelled to wake up every morning doing what it is you do on a ten hour stretch up to the time you come home & get yourself a tucker for supper. What am I talking about in early hours shape the silence when I am at home facing another night. Sometimes, its a lot of brainwashing. At times, the food was delicious. A lot of the times, everything is still the same puzzle. At stubborn silliness, its a case you need to face because you can't avoid it. We are here, & we will be before we're gone. Its up to your digestion system to decide whether you are in the right space before the saints come home. The only thing that can save the show regardless of whether its football season or not. Peace.

Well, if I had to ask myself this question as a musician, you would probably be distressed. Why? Because I fall into just another category of prodigal nature. I admit to it. The first thing you can advice to hypocracy in your own life. Yet, if you dig deep enough, if you can swallow your pride, you will find all things ugly enough to make you believe without self-convincing. The moment you do this, you will welcome the first step to advancement in a godly-sense. You may even feel a little enlightened. Relax for a little while, bliss only lasts for a little while. Insight is the only thing that separates a gentle like person to an overbearing thief. You don't have to stay that way if you didn't want to but wisdom comes to people who take on & follow their convictions. We now live in such an impersonal age where true emotion is ignored & knowledge is no longer information. Governments are on peace treaties simply because they have no choice but to collaborate. Been happening for a while, but now more evident in local policies which means your local town/s are feeling the weight. A tired world it is, but as a member of community & a global society, don't you think its time to digress, look up to your heroes & re-asses & re-evaluate why we do our worst & expect the best. Its a tired road, yet what surprises me more are the old wheels are still in motion. I have heard a lot from people I look up to that you need to tread the path where there is none. If you were to knuckle down & think about it clearly, makes a lot more sense than being beat up all the time. Though this very concept could be the very thing that can cover your liberty. The very thing that can enable you to look past your careers & professions to a calling for internal change of outlook & perspective directing you to do things with a greater sense of true fulfilment. Gives you a new code of reference & ethics & that alone is enough & sold it for me to travel this path that is less travelled. What did the pauper do with HIS business? Nothing yet.

Fifth Dan Music are a stream of influences & inspirations I have took on board both the good & the bad & try to cast a bunch of compositions to portray the kicks & kinks I absorb through beat machines. I beg to differ for starting kind of late but the divine gut of all things gives me confidence that its not as late as it could've been. My resume varies from engineering school & university maths, as well as your telemarketer. Numerous attempts I have made & ventured through corporate settings, but the inner voice sparks all things victorious & submitted. A day at a time. I enjoy this space. The price of inward freedom does cost & can eat you if you're keeping a blind eye without knowing & noticing what makes it different. You don't have to be an artist that sells records to be happy. You can be a plant manager with high remarks but if you're not going to pursue the inner child, then all things you can only reflect where the mud starts. I have always been so musically involved missing an outlet. Do right, & see summer. The crux of it all follows but fear not, you are already one step ahead. Its a basketball game & the winning team is not yours. You can bicker all day about it but you are forgetting that man's days are like grass. Your best bet is to withhold your daily consumption of lost love & start a new motu. Something like saving up for a laptop, yet even more, think about why those things are around in the first place. Revisit your trains of thought & discover the happy punk who grew a clue about how you screwed up with your best friend. Then have a drink with him/her. Then you can start crying but this time hopefully for joy that you didn't get stood up. You get the picture? Drop the fascination to junk food. You know it'll always be there. At the best & worst of times. The crucial part is whether it all sparks or not & the resolution for every direction you choose to go. Better than a hallelujah. Amen.

Trademark Lakers slowly being stripped right under their feet. Probably the yin & yang seeing they got rid of their championship players slowly & now the line-up is resolved with possible future championships one can hope. Straight shooting & all. But its sad when there is already speculation of amnesty, D. Howard leaving after this year, Metta on some differential play, & without Kobe, Steve Nash is the only few ones left with an insurmountable weight on his shoulders to do it on his own. Where did the year go of dynasty Lakers? Honestly, even if Phil Jackson came back, it is still a mechanics that he needs to cover with players of different sorts. & would he really want to. Maybe we all bit the bullet but LA can be pinned as a team who ran business more this year & missed all the good bits. We were expecting one this season. The next one is even more un-Laker like based on goodwill.

Has a thrift of a pursuit got over everyone's senses to be totally honest? What's wrong with not knowing all the answers. Really. If your scenario's are crucial, then a God so gracious would actually grace you with all & every answers you needed. For every single ones of your circumstances. Just believe in the music. & then, again, its subjective. Perhaps, this is the very thing that wiggles through our cores, like rotten apples, causing our own fantasy islands & disillusionment for whatever our daily purpose/s is & are. It is good to be punctual, it just is. Context is what gets us the most. It enables or corrupts. No two ways about. Much to the confusion of our own greyness. Ages ago, how we live was simple. Kids know everything really. Now everyone grows up just as confused. Religion, technology, lust, & greed for cabbages are whatever they make out to be. But the separation is what we shouldn't ever tolerate. But we do, hence, the despair for our enjoyment. Boils all the way down to a roll-over of be-alls & end-alls. To no resolution but more of the same. Again, just believe & trust the music. Then again, how many righteous really stopped questioning? You can say they never really saw the answers to their prayers & enjoyed it. But their fruit is forever engraved in us. Then, would you say that their work was a little self-less yet ridiculed by a God of curses? Well, outside this life I could not recommend anything brighter than the faith you have while here.
- Mar 29, 13Individualism and the fullness of its intent wasn’t meant for misdirection though an equal reason for this would be due to confusion and misinterpretation of key lessons that we just simply ignore valuable observances and a lack of a better judgment and divine wisdom. Creativity are in the senses and numbing out our moral core means the deterioration of our ability to see past the mistakes we make and how our choices and decisions we make is affected due to this blindness. Creativity exactly is what we need for an enabling of us to move and progress but when we are bitter about each other as much as we are bitter about our own lives due to a sentiment/s of regret due to our own inability to be as determined to look past our own agendas and the mud of our daily sustenance just so we can move forward and progress. An oxymoron, right? A metaphysical truth of a rigid human structure that we all have followed without realizing that we are actually and plainly just going round and round enjoying the thrills and spills and all things passé. Mistakes shape our thought patterns but whether we should continuously allow the same thought patterns to occur is no more distinct than trying to identify its root cause for starters. This could perhaps shape you into a better a understanding of how we are meant to function, both as individuals, and as society as a whole, though it may take you all of your life to attain such ‘oneness’, and all you have got to give. So be it, until judgment day. Just be weary of what concerns you take in and out and whether or not any of it is really relevant to what is truly crucial whatever and wherever stage you are at in your pursuit of what you would call your secret garden.

Well, 2013. Happy New Year. And congratulations for making it this far. No mysticism about how everything erupted in the last decade starting with the obvious technological advancements and a wider reach of accessibility for the privileged. Ha! On a positive note, if there is a time for positive outlooks and thinking, it is now. The world needs it. Most of all, YOUR WORLD needs it. I believe we still did a few things right, should you look back once more. Well, I must admit (its hard to notice), yet we pressed and kept on and served ourselves right. Form-wise, as people in a community and a broader sense of society, the guts was there. Process-wise, count your infirmities. It is this lack of understanding that our circumstances snowballs onto both extremes if you don't have a careful eye for detail. Hyundai and Kia Cars and their respective diligence would and should be esteemed for being (I believe) the new business model application and attitude for any business company venture in a generic sense (and style,right?!). How so? Well, Japan and Germany did it first with innovations both in corporate design and popular media standards after just under 50 years since WWII and their markets up to this day remains unbreakable due to 'ant-form' labour mentality. It is a breathe of fresh air for those who should apply this mindstate. Its the only precept of age-old that was never done right by most (due probably to not heeding any form of restraint) except a few who had no other choice. This is the last stride if we ever needed one. We know the world as it was, and now, as it is,
and eating our apples and the decisions we make after it is as much of a catch phrase without its application. The church is losing its appeal, governments are scattered, and the third world is overflowing with Apple products. The only solid basis and grounds we need and can only take are the basic definitions of simplicity and a genuine respect for where we are at as people and our basic society duties. We'll lose it all eventually if we fail to practice what we preach. The urgency has never been so great but it doesn't mean we won't (if not we can't) accept the little important things like eating breakfast first before a cigarette. You know what I mean??:) There are endless paths but understanding and wisdom is the only thing that can point us to our blindspots and how to deal with our weaknesses. After the process, it should be all in the land of milk and honey. Let us all pray for we are not immune to this.
