I've never done a post like this before. In fact I'd usually skip past most posts or articles that mention the divine, God, and the likes.
I'm not the easiest to convince when it comes to spirituality or religion.
My dad, was an Atheist; didn't believe in God or the church at all -- in fact when we were married in a church his words to me was the the walls would start to crumble when he walked in.
We both laughed, because we both knew my dads life path wasn't the most righteous.
He did me a favour when I was born. He stopped my mum from baptising me. I would have been a Catholic when I was born, because my mum was one, and my gran was a devout one.
She was even on first name terms with her Priest.
A life, I couldn't imagine nor understand.
But my dad did me a favour because I was able to choose my own path that so many others were not able to.
I was able to choose what I believe for myself, out of love, rather than out of fear.
As I have done for my son.
He believes we are all in a simulation -- it's the one that best describes his world, and I'm happy to let him have it.
Yet a higher purpose has come to me recently. All which I thought I knew to be true warped completely out of the window.
I've spoken recently about submission, following, the divine feminine all which leads me down a path of planning.
I would not be here in this position had I not had the specific experience and life skills in the past.
People have said to me before, with your intelligence and your mindset I am surprised you're not crushing it yet.
And they were right.
I see my friends and family, sometimes with a tenth of the life experience I have and they are winning at life -- yet I still struggle on by.
But I have always sought out adventure. @stickupboys has told me in the past that there is wildness in my eyes and he's not wrong.
As my friends seek the safety of knowing, I have always sought out the wildness of unknowing.
My friend Ben for example, a tree surgeon and landscape gardener is now cleaning houses and shaping gardens with his wife.
My other friend Steve, a car mechanic since he came out of college has his own tyre and exhaust centre locally.
Me? Someone that builds communities and gets people working together is in...
Crypto?
It doesn't make sense.
Until it does.
I'm not going to go into a long drawn out speech about how finance is better when we all co-operate because if you want that then you can check out my @brofund account for that.
But for now, it's making a lot of sense why I've followed this path.
But it's a wild one, and it's one of those instances that have made me stop and think -- was this preplanned for me?
Is my life laid out already?
One that I cannot answer but it is deeply invigorating.
And yet I think back to when we had the internet wars, when people lost their religion, lost their roots to belief.
I was there, I lost my belief in God wholly back then. It was horrible, it felt nasty -- and I grieved the loss.
But it all made sense at the time.
I mean God was in essence man made.
As I get older though I'm beginning to feel a truer force, perhaps not man made Gods but that which binds us all together.
A rhythm, a connection, a pulse, a beat.
Or God, if you must.
Call it what you want but it binds us and it connects us and we are all part of it.
And it feels like that is being stripped from us for a reason.
Because a man that moves with higher purpose is unstoppable. A higher force, a guiding spirit, knows no fear.
This is what you'll come to learn at our haven.
And I'll help guide you too, into being unstoppable.
As will others.
