Today i decided to train with physical intensity and maintain high levels of focus without the aid of water, something i have done many times before, for conditioning. this time was different though, i decided to reflect deeply on the tremendous thirst that dwelled from deep within.
I could nothelp but feel pain for those who do not have access to clean fresh revitalizing pure water, the smooth running liquid. When concentrated upon, especially when one is very thirsty, the water transmutes its natural form, and ideologically and physically becomes something far more powerful than simply a thirst quencher. It becomes life saving, but more to that it becomes life. if one focuse you can feeel a debt of gratitude to the life force that proceeds to enter ones domain, on a physical level this is soothing, on a spiritual level something truly amazing is occuring...
I feel a connectedness to something greater, I understand in greater depth what surrounds me, the poverty, the disadvantaged that have no access to this simplicity of living (or at least what should be) I feel their pain and become deeply humbled by something as simple as water.. well it's simple to us.
Reflect on the simplicities of life (or what appear to be, to the majority of the western world) and without fully travelling one can understand and know to some extent the world that surrounds them,, all that is needed is appreciation for one's position in life, and gratefullness to what one has, thought, consideration, reflection, and a little of one's time, it is that simple...
Namaste
welcome...
This site is designed to give you insight on the nature of my very own being, it has been constructed to allow the expression of all who are in search of something greater than what is simply apparently in front of them... I would like all to be able to express freely their opinions, their feelings, their thoughts and their understandings of this theatre we call life and inturn I would hope to learn much from others as hopefully some may learn something from me. I will document my thoughts and experiences for all to view, in essence I anticipate this to spark up discussion to why life is what it is, and what is it that exactly is...
I do not believe one can reach enlightenment through philosophical discussion, but I do believe, that thought like anything else when exercised grows and flourishes, and thought is an integral part of existance and growth as is spirit...
I wish all that visit this web site inner tranquility, inner freedom and clarity amongst life and living...
ABOUT ME...
My birth name is Stefanos, it is the name given to me by my parents. My culture is a mixture of Greek & Italian & that of a multicultrul Australia. I wont go to deeply in to my past, because I have 26 years of it & it could get lengthy, rather I would like to focus on where I am now, in this moment, in retrospect to that I am well aware that our past affects, shapes & somewhat creates who we are, what we are, how we feel and think, our characters, our personalities, & what action we take today, knowing this, I do not reject my past, it is me, I embrace it, So I continue...
Am in intrigued by life, I am curious by all that is. I love new experiences, I love and feel deeply connected to the mountains, to the ocean, & to nature, I feel a connectedness that at times superseeds any human relationship, this may be difficult to comprehend, but is an extrordinarily beautiful feeling. I am currently heavily involved in physical training, and I take it very seriously, I enjoy all training, and am currently martial arts fight training, in the form of boxing and jujitsu, along this I exert myself physically with cycling, hiking (when I can, as I love altitude), running, and all cross training. i train intensly because it takes me to a place within myself, that is deep and that is singular, it is connected to something higher. Along the benefits of performance on a physical level, this intense and focused training does something else for me, it assists me to find me, who I really am, what i am of, and how I am connected to what surrounds me... Although all that is here is finite, I will embrace this journey i am on for as long as I am meant to, all that I do, and all who cross my path, and bless my being I will acknowledge as a true gift, that is here to enhance my being, for me to learn, and perhaps for me to pass on something from my own being. This is part of the journey I am on, a journey through the maze and labrynth of life...
Namaste for now...
