Where are we Fucking Going?!

6.2.13

I am sitting on a train, heading back to the assiduously pretentious rolling of the LA life, reading for my final sociology course and of course, begin to reflect. This weekend, while visiting home, my mom, her friend and myself went to a small shop dedicated to holistic health, and the ways of Eastern ideologies. We left after being consulted, and "chosen," by healing stones. A Lapis Lazuli wand, Prehnite ring, as well as a thin gold neck "choker," a tiger's eye bracelet for my beau, and description of the stones' properties, later we left. Before choosing my wand and ring, the owner of the shop did not allow anyone else to touch the items and insisted on me holding two crystals in opposite directions; facing up and facing down, while I allowed the stones to "speak to me." When I read their description, both were said to assist in with a path for self knowledge, reflection, inner peace and truthful communications. This was interesting because recently I began acknowledging particular behaviours that ultimately lead me in maintaining a pseudo presentation of myself emotionally and basically find ways to sabotage or not fully invest in relationships period. I wanted a change and have been working on it.

What I am realizing is that I am not the only one afraid to make real commitments to anything out of fear, fear of anythiing, take your pick; success, failure, embarrassment, happiness, disappointment etc. To credit  a "founding sociologist" who probably stole his ideologies from visionaries far removed from himself, C. Wright Mills, explained that when we probe into our own "personal" problems, we begin to see that they nearly always reflect a more broad PUBLIC pathology that requires change. 

How many people in our group of friends of acquaintances can we look to that is looking for themselves? Taking hiatus from technology, grinding atmospheres of the corporate world, or constant mundane job search through therapy, "new age" religious ideals etc? It seems today, we are ALL empty, and starved for any form of a shared connection to anyone or anything. Think about it. Our current US society is in a terrible state of "moral" decay. It seems even that term is antiquated since we collectively have none aside from the idolization of money. We are so tired, yet rather than changing the fact that we have to work 40+ hours at a minimum paying job to barely afford rent and food, we dismiss the idea of making change, grab a cup of starbucks and continue grinding ourselves back into the earth, dead, but I digress. 

The wand and the ring seem to be sending out incredible vibrations and when my sister held her hand over the wand, she felt a hot pulsating energy coming off of it, which I had previously felt. I can't say that diverging from "traditional" or conventional ideals and practices is a better way or the right way to seek the truth that we all seem to be chasing, or that it will purge me of the beckoning of our materialistic, consumer, individualistically focused, exploitative, unjust society that is The United States of America, but I do know that personally it feels way better than not trying, so I'm riding back to LA feel a little more prepared to handle the bullshit.
