I’m a Canadian in my late 20’s. Nirvana rocked my life as a teenager, 9/11 rocked my life as an adult. I watched those planes hit and those towers fall, with a heavy heart and a troubled mind. I’ve known about America’s flawed foreign policy for many years, as I’ve traveled around the world and [...]

You’re a Spokesperson for Facebook Ads. You Didn’t Know?
July 24, 2009 – 4:34 pm
UPDATE: New link to edit Facebook ad settings (requires login, of course). Also, you may or may not see a blog post ‘debunking’ the rumors of Facebook using photos in advertising. They say it was third-party advertisers only and they have ‘fixed’ the problem. [Re: the blog post above - Big thanks to Barry, the [...]
I have a special skill set…

Don’t Miss the Point

Anyone interested in a reflective moment? No? Too bad it’s my site! Watch (and listen to) this short animation inspired by Alan Watts. Bet you can’t guess who produced it!
Band Names That Kick Ass
August 31, 2007 – 11:27 pm
My brother and I thought of some band names: reduced to clear 2wb absent intelligents priceless salvage silicon in the life across the sky end schumpfler laundry thieves uninvited thought magic rocks walk around workaround underlying disorders difficulty learning all in your mind/head lack of oxygen injury acquired unconsciousness that follows lost memories slips and [...]

My Guide to the Undiscovered Mind
August 6, 2007 – 10:33 pm
Sometimes it takes me days to snap out of it. One time, it even took a whole year. I wake in the morning, midmorning really, and find myself unsure of why I continue. Food is on my mind, hunger down below. I step outside my box, I breathe the air. The sun feels good, although [...]
So I Said to Her
August 5, 2007 – 3:57 am
Your positive growth will begin with this: believing in the fact that you can change, you can better yourself and that there is a better future ahead for you… …the future you want (or at least close to it)! You must believe that you can do better and you can fix things. If you do [...]
The Art of Understanding
August 5, 2007 – 3:30 am
I seek to understand. All my life I’ve been trying to understand. Everything. I’ve been trying to understand simple things like radios and walkmans and more complex things, like relationships and human behaviour in general. In most situations, I don’t follow the normal route of action or reaction, because I want to understand its insides [...]

I think the answer may lie in your inability to distinguish the true emotions from the false emotions. (I’m not accusing you of anything, merely speculating.) Of course, both are real responses, but the fundamentals of each are very different. For example: a basic emotion such as fear can exist, without prejudice. The emotion exists, [...]
Your Conscious Mind vs. Your Subconscious Mind
July 10, 2007 – 3:09 am
Your subconscious mind allows you to live freely. It allows you to feel like there is something wonderful going on. It is your unencumbered thought and imagination. Your conscious mind acts as your security, your monitor, your public relations person. Things you are good at, passionate about, they become harder to get to as your [...]
Imagination vs. Intelligence, and The Young Conscious Mind
July 4, 2007 – 1:20 pm
When we are children we have open minds. Our minds are impressionable and limitless. That magical feeling you got when you watched science fiction (believing it could be real) or Peter Pan, flying (knowing you could do it with some practice) is the young conscious mind at work. The young conscious mind is not-so set [...]
