Today I read one of the most inspiring articles I've laid eyes upon in some time, possibly in my entire life. In this article I learned that Bolivia is set to pass a law that gives Pachamama (Mother Nature) the same rights as an individual. It's about effin time y'all. Corporations have been reaping the benefits of such recognition for years and the results, for the most part, have not been positive for anyone/anything else, especially the environment.
We've created the most powerful and egocentric forces on this planet from our own fears of scarcity and these Titans of egoic selfishness are pummeling the very surroundings that allow us to exist. I'll take full accountability for this as the majority of these corporations were created to fulfill desires that I fueled with my own thoughts of lack/craving. Now I choose differently.
I'm 100% ready to provide the source of all that we walk through, stand upon, swim in, dance amongst, sing along, play with, breathe in and consume the same rights (if not more)than any other entity recognized by international law and I'm grateful for Bolivia's choice to take this first vital step toward a viable future for all.
Spread the word Y'all,
Mama's been recognized and acknowledgment makes all the difference.
Blessings to all beings,

...Passing, Arising and Passing, Arising...
Freshly reintroduced to the deluge of verbal communication that is my life in Los Angeles, I'm seriously appreciative that I chose to attend the meditation course I mentioned in my previous post.
In the wordless company of my cosmic brothas and sistas I entered through a passage of breath into a rodeo of focus with the bucking horse of my own wild mind.
This may of been one of the best choices I've made yet this life.
As the horse became tame enough to guide along the path, the journey became a fiercely dynamic flow of sensations, ceaselessly changing and offering the rider a rare opportunity to reconstruct unconcious reactions at the root level.
Any words I arrange on here will not do the experience justice, so I leave it at that. Acknowledging the depth of it all and voicing gratitude for the new friends I made in silence these past 11 days as I proceed along the path with Love in my heart and a clearer head.
*On a side note*
the course was taught simultaneously in Khmer, the language of Cambodia, and my awesome sister whose birthday is today will be spending her honeymoon there next month. On the last day of the course I asked the Cambodian monk who took the course with us if he'd extend a blessing in Khmer to my sister and her equally awesome fiancee. He said yes and the video below is the blessing.
Love to all!
