Scattered Ramblings…
Yesterday I met up with Dylan Murray for coffee, Dylan is a great local Roots Reggae musician that Kal introduced me too, we just totally vibed off each other and we have become pretty good friends. We try to get together a few times a month just to talk about life and share introspection, It’s people like this I am most grateful for having in my life. They keep me grounded in a way that literally eliminates all self doubt and reminds me that I AM part of something greater. Dylan has this ability, as do a few other close personal friends. The trick now is holding on to that feeling so that I can be more productive and accomplish the things I want to accomplish so badly.
The flip side here is the id, or ego that we all have, mine is particularly strong in some cases and I need to do some unlearning. Far too often I become consumed by the thinking self (as Eckhart Tolle explains it), and while I do have an increasing number of present moments in my life, they are still fleeting and do not last. I need to be more present and yet I need to get so many things sorted out for the future, the ducks are all there, some are in line, most are off having a keg party that I wasn’t invited too.
At any rate … check out Dylan Murray, he is such a deep soul, you are missing out by not giving him a listen.
