Remember when you were in school, and the bell would ring for recess? You would go outside, run around and play, meet up with others who you had common interest with-- laugh a lot, play hard, and conspire for even greater adventures.
It would be like that. =) Except I would run out my door, end up at an airport-- but everything else would stay the same as recess-- for the most part. ;)

I love the simple things in life that are so amazingly simple and deep at the same time. Now, I am sure some would laugh at me for thinking eating berries off a tree is deep in anyway.. But as I was walking my dog, I was looking for something to eat. No, no at a restaurant-- I live with a small wooded area with a path (useful for walking dogs of course). I am very into appreciating the abundance of food that naturally grows in nature. Before I understood it, world hunger amazed me. I couldn't believe with the abundance of food growing-- most of it is unharvested-- that people still managed to have experiences of going hungry.
So anyway, searching for breakfast, I found a giant tree branch looking thing growing out of the ground, extending 15 feet from where it seeded, out into the light. There were so many berries on this thing-- I am set on fruit for the next couple of weeks, easy. ;) Organic, locally grown, and I didn't have to pay 8.99/lb for them. ;)
The berry itself isnt quite a blackberry-- but a close relative, and taste pretty much the same, just not as sweet. I ate a couple, to make sure it was edible (i can easily tell at first taste)-- looked down at my dog eating tons of them off the ground lol-- and my taste buds, and my dog confirmed that they were delicious. I grabbed a bunch, and had quite a delicious breakfast.
I really appreciated the energy those berries give you when they are picked right off the tree. I feel full after a small bowl of berries. That's awesome. haha Even the best organic fruit from the supermarket doesn't give me that feeling.
Out in California it is different-- but fruit sitting on a shelf is fruit sitting on a shelf--so by the time it gets to NJ-- it def looses something.
Anyway, had me thinking too, about how abundant and incredible this world is, that a seed could drop, a plant could grow, berries and all-- and then i could be intrigued to look in that direction when I was seeking fresh fruit-- rendezvousing with that plant at that perfect moment. Life is great. =)

Oh man. As soon as I have a bigger place, I want to get a set of sweet electronic drums, a mac, and some sick software, and I will be making some really sweet electronic music. ;) That is the genre that excites me the most. And that is good for you guys, because then you will have some seriously sweet energetic music to listen to! ;)

"Physical man gets into an uncomfortable place when he concludes, "I and those like me have come to the right decisions, and everybody that's living outside of these right decisions is wrong." And then he spends his life pushing against all those "wrong" decisions and cutting himself off from the Life Force that would help him have joy in his, what he concludes to be, right decisions. There is no one right path. There are endless paths, and the differences in the paths are what make them more and more, and more, perfect. The same old path no longer serves." -Abraham-Hicks

"Your happiness is the most significant contribution that you could make. In your reaching for happiness, you are opening a vortex which makes you an avenue for the Well-being to flow through you. And anything that is your object of attention under those conditions, benefits by the infusion of your Well-being." Abraham-Hicks
