...........and then there was "On any Sunday"
Both are old movies today
Both classics
Both should be seen as they convey something special.
The one about bikes the other about surfing
And both about friendship
About sharing, helping each other
Experiencing that special rush of adrenaline when facing yourself
When facing danger
There are other films that also capture that special something
People doing their thing for the sheer pleasure, risk, danger and sometimes for a living too
Most people do not do what they truly care about
Let alone for a living
Notice those who do what they truly love get something out of life that others do not
Particularly when they share that special experience with others who do the same activity
The wonder of the perfect wave or storm
The amazing desert on your bike, that sunrise, sunset
.
The camaraderie of tiredness after a long day of doing your thing
Something that stays with you for life
Something that shapes your values
Takes you beyond greed and selfishness
Takes you to the edge
The point where you absolutely know yourself
Beyond any doubt or equivocation
You know yourself
Shame really how many never know or experience this
And you?
What are you doing to shape your life?
To take it to another level
To experience those things about yourself that stay with you for life
That can never be taken away
That define your self to yourself
That open the doors of perception about nature
That allow us to be truly part of nature
With respect and humility
Awe even for the wonder of seeing inside ourselves
Seeing our courage and learning how to respect this insight
The peace of mind it brings
The change to our lives
Becoming one with ourselves even if only in this one dimension
Many stay at this level content in the pleasure and satisfaction it brings
Others oh so few will push on to master their minds
So few we never or seldom read or hear about them
They walk amongst us radiating that unusual power
A sereneness
This is what life is truly about for those who have the courage and discipline to keep searching
To travel those paths trodden by the few throughout history, pre history
By those unusual ones seeking the truth
There is no barrier to entry
Only your own fears
What is your life about?
Male or female, black or white, young or old the journey is the same
Think twice before letting your life seep away
Unused, untested, cocooned in the fears of modern man
Take your life to another level
