Road trip REAL Trip

On a great trip I saw a lot and learned a lot,
in more ways than one,

Shared space with a very intelligent, unique, refreshing beautiful soul,


checked out the local spots

And came across beauty in unexpected places
(this man was so sweet, he has been shining shoes for 20 yrs,
with those honest eyes and genuine smile
He clearly knows something I do not)

Treasure island

And it reminded me of somewhere I've been before
but I couldn't quite put my finger on it

the bay bridge and caught it, even on a gloomy day
Tasted new food

And enjoyed old food...

But overall the most amazing thing to come out of this trip


which is priceless...
Wish I had captured THAT

hmm

Im looking at the world and wondering what Im seeing,
a different thought,
a different kind of being

In a world of opposition called freedom,
Whats the alternative to WAR ON EARTH,
PEACE ON EARTH?

If we were meant to think,
When'd we stop thinking?
When'd we close our eyes,
and stop even seein,
Tell me what theres left if they can't SEE either,
through all the lies and hate
whats left to believe in?
If we can't change whats the point of reason
If we can't GROW
then why need seasons???


hmmmmmmmm

Outnumbered

WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU????

I dont mean some new shoes,
a car, shit... anything material,
I mean all of those around us,
As I look around I see so many suffering
So many people in emotional pain,
and why
in todays time and age
do none of us extend a hand...
an ear
a heart

entire lives are being lived in WAR ZONES
Children are being raped of their innocence around the world,
people, young and old are starving to death,
with no hope in sight....
people struggling to keep their families alive
and Woman, that center of human life, the carrier, the giver, the nurturer
living in a constant state of disrespect, objectification, perversion,
and in this world we are not worried about anyone but ourselves....
how
HOW CAN WE ALL BE SO Selfish?!

Maybe it is just easier to turn a blind eye,
live in ignorance,
maybe it is just easier to say " it is their own fault"
or pretend that this does not exist...
Maybe it disturbs your idea of a perfect life,
Maybe it shatters your facade
maybe it just doesnt fit into your little box that you call life

Why dont we care enough to do anything???
Is this the human race?
Death and destruction to all????

if enough of us are willing to be the EXCEPTION
it will soon become the RULE.
we set the standard
WE!

United we stand... divided we FAIL



When everyone in the city sleeps....


For me... when the people in the city sleep
the city itself comes alive


Late night walks,
self heard talks,


Colors so bright,
They come alive at night..


Thoughts so clear
The world could hear

If only you'd listen
you would see what your missin....

another utah sunset


Caught this out the car window,
cruisin down the freeway
something so beautiful
make you forget that time is flying by

inspired

Finding myself lost in my heart and consumed with thought,
you could be what you seem, or it could be that youre not
a beautiful mind, with conception of time,
reality and rawness wrapped up in your grind
passion and hope, with a mind for the future,
love for our people, and thoughts for a whole,
instead of in a world of "ME"
you're seeing a common goal... good for all
with each minute that passes I see something new,
something I wasnt sure even existed, I see in you
This whole situation has got me questioning
Trying to sort out what I really believe in
the core is the there, but the details arent clear
I gave up on this whole feeling and traded it for the world,
a hope for a better one, and nothin but love for the fuel,
Searching for answers and questions that never end,
when you speak... they start to make sense
you're more than a man, you're a friend of man
man kind, mother earth and father time
I LOVE YOUR MIND
