Be happy with who you are!

 So, our thoughts create the reality!

When we think that God exists, then he really does, at least for the person who does the thinking. He doesn't have to exist for anyone else, just that person. As long as the benefits of God's existence for that person outweigh the disadvantages, it's practical and beneficial for God to exist. 

Now, the question of reality does not only grasp the existence of tangible proof of invisible objects like God. There are many other intangiable things that people have created the language for, as a result of which those things became part of the reality. Take for example the idea for anorexia. The concept probably did not exist until someone came up with the word to describe the phenomena that may have occurred to only one person. Possibly that person was just to sick and tired of life and didn't have strength or willingness to support life in his or her body. Maybe the reason that person was not eating was because of that, not because of the willingness to stay super skinny. However, the term became known to the general public and the phenomena became the reality of those who willing to embrace it. 

So, it seems like there is a reason to believe that our language creates the reality and shapes our views of ourselves and others in the society. I wonder if there is a way to become aware of the fact that sometimes the language that has been created does not do us any good. I mean, if there was no such thing as eating disorders, most people wouldn't have recognized that they are affected by them. And maybe that would save the women from a great deal of suffering. 

Maybe some terms are useful in the reality, but others can bring about a great deal of harm to the easily influenced society.

 

After reading Paulo Coelho's "The Alchemist" I was inspired. Actually, it wasn't only the alchemist that was inspiring. "Veronica Decides to Dye" was simply amazing. I loved it more than any of his other of his books. "11 minutes" was also higly inspirational and thought-provoking. 

However, the alchemist explained that everyone on this planet has a purpose, their Personal Legend, which is what that person wants to achieve the most, whether it is travelling or becoming an olympic champion. And when a person is trying to achieve his or her Personal Legend, the whole Universe conspires to help that person. Coelho called this principle "Beginner's luck". Also Coelho said that  right before your dream of achieving your personal legend comes true, you are put through a severe examination to test how badly you want to ahcieve your goal. Not surprisingly many of us fail at this last but not the least important step. People give up 2 feet away from their finishing line. Reasons? Maybe fear that the dream wouln't come true. Maybe realization that after this dream becomes reality, there won't be anything else to strive for. Whatever it is, I want to promise that I'll take my personal legend to the end and that I will go through the most severe tests this world has to offer. I will prove worthy of my dreams!

And now about my dream:

I am not a money person, but I want to have just enough. I want to be independent and be able to have choices. But I will never pursue a business for money. I find malls and sales discusitng and I disrespect those whose life revolves around money and sales.

What I want is to serve the society and myself. I want to bring spirituality back into our society. People are so driven by their work, their duties and responsibilities, as well as opinions of others, that they forget to calm down and relax and enjoy the peace of the present moment. Instead, they rush through their days because their is so much to be accopmlished. Therefore, I believe people are depressed and vulnerable to all kinds of diseases. Considering the fact that most diseases come from your mind, I want to encourage people to think positevely and use the Law of Attraction as extensively as possible. I want people to become appreciative of their life and realize that the problems they have are at times minute comparing to the hunger in Africa as well as to blindness, deafness or having a child with a down syndrome.

I want to surround myself with people who are willing to learn how to think positively and who see beyond looks, clothes, and money. I want to concentrate on the endless possibilities of a human mind and body. I want to bring out spirituality and religion. I don't want to tell people which God to believe in, instead, I want people simply to believe in higher forces. I want to teach people that being who they really are is going to make them happier than if they were to be a picture perfect with suppressed wished and desires. I want to teach people that it is perfectly healthy to be a bit crazy. After all, we are all unique. However, everyone is trying to supress that uniquness and be the same as the crowd. That way they don't feel like outcasts. However, I think, people will accept us as long as we ourselves accept us. What it is even better, when you don't hide your real you, people with similar interest get attracted to you instead of the people who simply follow the trends. This way you surround yourself with those who are similar to you, which in turn makes your life more complete and fulfilling. 

So I want to create a school, where people could come and take various classes on subjects such as spirituality, yoga, breathing, religion. I want to have workshops where people with similar interests could get together and practice various rituals like tantra. I want to organize trips to India, Africa, China, Japan, and other countries for people to experience the real culture of those highly culturistic places. 

I want to write books, stories, anything. I like writing out my thoughts. I want to have a book club in my school where people could discuss major themes and possibly make readjustments to their daily life when they learn some useful lessons. 

I want to teach people that life is possible without all these technological advancements. That we don't have to take an escalator. We can walk the stairs and that will keep us healthier and more physically fit. We don't have to drive our car everywhere. Walking is great exercise and it gives you time to think about your life and your dreams. Riding a bike takes away the need to go the machine-filled gym. The use of phones, blackberries, and other devices is incredibly destructive. You are reacheable anywhere, anyplace, anytime. Isn't it much lovelier, though, to meet up with your friend for a cup of authentic asian tea and have a face-to-face conversation where you can read the body language of your partner and their gesticulations. 

I want to teach people to be happy with who they are and appreciate what they have even when it is not a lot.

I want my school to be affordable so that young people could also join. I'm only 19 myself, but looking at today's young people, it scares me. Nothing interests them unless it's drinking, partying, or grabbing someone's ass. Everyone is deeply affected by the glamour of Hollywood and willingness to live the LA type of life. People have become so good at hiding their personalities that all you see now is a girl from a magazine cover with no other interests but clothes, guys, actors, and did I mention clothes? Same with young gentlemen. Personalites are hidden underneath those muscles that have accumulated after hours and hours spent in the gym so that girls find you "hot". 

What happened, people? Are we that superficial that we don't see beyong those bimbo blondes and muscular buffs? Are they more attractive than a person with a real personality and something interesting to say? Are they better in bed? I highly doubt it. 

This is a lot of writing. But what is important is that I don't agree with the today's society. And I want to find people that are willing to be my proponents. I know it is a hard task but I'll try my hardest.
