Music festivals are magical places. My freedom blossoms at these sorts of gatherings. Feeding off the energy of others is incredibly liberating when good energy is all around. I like to just let loose, dance like there's no tomorrow and feel a sense of closeness, of connection with everyone else there because they're having the same experience as i am. Everyone goes to music festivals for the same reason: to let the music flow through them, to move them, to aid them in reaching that level of expression words never can. It's wonderful to know it's ok to let loose, look crazy, get funky. Dance is one of the most theraputic forms of expression for me and to engage in this with hundreds or thousands of other people is estatic! My freedom is so much better, so much bigger and brighter when it's engaged with other people as opposed to being isolated from the world. My freedom is togetherness :)

Keeping faith in myself and the universe has proved to be trying many a-time. When things are seemingly going wrong or when i've got a case of the kundalini blues, it's difficult to reassure myself that this is a learning experience, just like everything else, and has a purpose, is productive. Often times, in these instances, i feel i have strayed from my path and i panic. But every experience is one with a lesson and in realizing, embracing and applying these lessons, we will never be lead astray. My destiny will always unfold just as it should :)

Restlessness has motivated me to leap out of my comfort zone. i feel i have been stagnant for far too long, i'm beginning to grow mold! there is so much the universe has to offer that i blinding myself to with limitations. 

i'm so torn about whether or not i am on the right path, living the right life, for me, right now. i am in college, a very expensive college, where i feel my money is being carelessly thrown away. i have to take out astronomical loans to sustain such an educational experience. i suppose all students my age, in the same place i am now, have this same panic mentality. when i'm finished with school, i will be greatly in debt and i feel this will hamper my true aspirations in life (to travel, to learn all that i can, to meet as many life-changing people as possible, to help and to give). why does money rule this so-called reality in which i feel i am forced to exist? in the wise words of Queen, I WANT TO BREAK FREE! 

My purpose in this life is to discover my own radiant energies, embrace and grow them and inspire others to do the same.

 

I love spreading good energy and will. Many people close to me in my life are or have been lost, lost to a life of sadness and depression. My most fulfilling moments have been inspiring them to find their true path, their true existence, to denounce the life they’ve seemingly been doomed to and show them there’s something more worth living for.

I am deeply connected to the Earth, as we all are, as she is our life-giving mother. I feel so many have lost touch with this crucial connection and thus, we have begun to destroy her and consequently ourselves. To resurrect this familial bond with this planet would be to give life to our as well as future generations. This revolution of belief is crucial, not only to the world as a whole (the Earth as well as the human race), but to each individual’s happiness and sense of fulfillment. 

I co-concentrate in Psychology and Philosophy and with this, I am pursuing a life dedicated to holistic healing/counseling. I believe many modern day ailments such as depression and drug abuse are caused by a lack of faith: faith in the world, in life and most importantly, in the self.

Any way I can connect with someone is an opportunity for inspiration. I love to make friends out of everyone I meet and to have as many people as possible truly touch my life. I’d like to have the chance to effect others in this same way.

My ideal is to save the world from itself. The so-called reality in which we live, the dog-eat-dog world many of us believe to be truth, is corrupt and misguided. We have turned ourselves into monsters by accepting this society which we have created as permanent and unchallengeable. We have accepted our own, self-inflicted death sentence. We turn a blind eye to that which is ugly and strive for what we are told is happiness. I want to show the world that happiness is not external. Happiness is constructed through self-exploration and discovery.

I aspire to heal others through faith and sharing the light which I have found to all who find themselves in darkness. The only way I can think to do this is through studying psychology, but psychology is too narrow-minded. I want to start my own branch of psychology because it is indeed a form of counseling which calls to me most. However, defining symptoms and looking up an illness is a book is not an accurate diagnosis. Many people in treatment today are not truly being helped because their “illness” is never really healed, only suppressed. I plan to spend my days, with or without pay, inspiring people, helping people. One cannot force another to “see the light” and no one will recognize their own inner light until they’re ready. One must live as brilliantly as one can, shining as bright as the sun, to show those in darkness how glorious and possible it is. 

If I could, I would spend my days traveling the world communicating and living with trees. Ha! I love trees even more than I love people because trees have never done the damage that the modern human is capable of or willing to do. I would like to live in a small community somewhere in the middle of nowhere, self-sufficient and full of love and kind heart. Anyone know of a place?
