Thoughts

Do you ever look at life and say 'damn, i don't know who i am or where i'm going?" Well, the common response would be "fuck that, i know exactly WHO i am and where I am going," but thats societal. See, it's expected in our society that those who are "strong" know where we are going and that we are firm in our beliefs and our individuality, which we manifest as a certain persona in interpersonal relations with others. This is the ego that is so studied and discussed and misunderstood, as it has taken over human kind. We feel like we need to behave and act and react in a certain ways so that others take note of how we are and learn to respect, and ultimately fear us in everyday life. We grow older and we stop evaluating life at its every turn because we recognize patterns and become conditioned by past experiences. We become lazy and develop beliefs, and its not that believing is lazy, its just that sticking to certain beliefs as they pertain to the 'alternating pictures in life' and behaving in accordance to outcomes of past experience is lazy and it leaves us unable to grasp the essence of life, (which seems to me to be the adventure as opposed to the experience, THINK ABOUT IT) as we're too busy developing a false sense of self that could be crushed any moment by the slightest change in the environment of our lives. This may all seem too deep and philosophical but get over it and attempt to understand what i'm kicking because i'm flowing right now and nowadays i dont have much chance to flow.

I just graduated college at hofstra and i"m on block island working my ass off for my father who is almost three times my age and working even harder than me to make ends meet and to keep the restaurant afloat. I know that this is something that i could do as a source of reliable income, but i also know that it is not what i want to do with my life. I'm a poet, or so i think, and working this much makes it almost impossible to sit down and think about life. However, if i wanted to, i could assume the role as a full time chef and do the damn thing wherever i so chose to do it.

And this brings me back to my original point: I grew up with my mother and sister and I'm a momma's boy who loves the women in his life more than anything else, we moved around somewhat and i adjusted wherever i went. I spent time with my father during the summers but have only recently begun to develop an authentic relationship with him as i have worked by his side for the past few years. Through all of this, i have learned to understand the truth about perceived identities and the impermanence of our concepts of self in the lives that we live. However firm we are in our beliefs or in our definitions of who we are and the lives we live, there are always different things that arise that can force us to change our definitions or perceptions. WE (our egos) are forced to change in accordance to those "alternating Pictures" and we develop new relationships and form new interests in response, and thus adopt new definitions for who we are and what life is meant to be. Certain people have had the priveledge, or should i say misfortune, to have grown up in the same, unchanging situation, and they might have a hard time understanding the impermanence of percieved identities because their perception of who they are has never truly changed. I am not trying to say that this is wrong, because in our society, like i have said, a strong self identity is valued, but i stress that identity is not the 'be all and end all' of our existence, and since it is so maleable according to what surrounds us and what influences us, we must be even more dilligent in finding what really calls us in life as opposed to what becomes expected of us.

I'm rambling, and it is hard to hammer home this point in writing, besides, i have to get to work in the morning, but what i am trying to say is: if you ever wonder to yourself: 'who am i and where am i going in life,' don't worry and don't be ashamed because society expects your definitive understanding of these questions. They take a great deal of learning and soul searching, but we4 must keep an open mind and not become lazy and hung up on our beliefs from past experiences. Evaluate every sutuation as it comes to you from a fresh perspective. let our conditioning be shampooed and cleansed and become truer to life than we ever believed we could be. Us humans have been granted the greatest gift in minds that are capable of deep thought, so please, learn to use it, but don't take yourself too seriously. Develop a method of understanding that works for your purpose and then recognize and respect the different ways of others. We can coexist on this earth, and we can ultimately learn what makes us individual but also what makes us the same, as life courses through our veins. Peace and Love to all
