Cause/Effect and your Destiny

Cause/Effect and your Destiny Speech, or vibrations emanated from one's Free-Will into sound, creates a bridge between the internal and external worlds. Those vibrations when uttered with self assurance will command neutral/stagnant energy into directed m

Is it that we are affected and thus have to discover the cause? or… Something is caused because we decree the effect? These are questions that will dictate your life. If given the proper time to reflect on them, they will also guide you into a completely new way of seeing your destiny. One of the saddest wastes of human potential, from my unique perspective, happens when someone speaks to…

people always told me to dream smaller, or maybe just not quite so big. they didnt expect much from me, and i expected everything from me. i am an independant person, i have learned that my parents nor anyone else will carry me through life. though i am grateful for the help that i recieve, ultimately i am my own responsobility. my actions and my path in life depend on me and my decisions. my reality is the only one i will ever know in this life, and what can be imagined can be achieved. my dreams can become reality if i so will them into existence. i am not giving up. i will manifest my future by the decisions i make in my present. i cannot be broken only transformed into a stained glass kaleidscope of wisdom, i am here to learn. i am here to evolve. to become. be better everyday than i was the last. and i will be the greatest version of myself. i am an artist, i will be a master.

Tomorrow, and the 365 days before it.

It's registration day 2012 at UCT tomorrow afternoon, but I pretty much decided on my courses for this semester a long time ago, because I didn't have much choice, due to having a psychology major which basically means that all my elective freedom has been eaten up by this beast of a speciality.

But what hit me like a ton of bricks is really the fact that it was roughly a year ago that I started earning my confused bachelor's degree at that institution. And I was so damn excited about it because I had wanted to go there since I knew that those vines along those walls on that road whose name I forgot lol was hiding a university which, in my very honest opinion, looked remarkably beautiful and thus became a major priority once the dream of going to Oxford University wilted and died. Not to mention that all my friends wanted to go there (that changed) and every boy I had ever showed remote interest in had ended up there, which meant that there must be something in the water in there and I wanted in! I don't want to be depressing and chuck in an unhappy ending because nobody likes a pessimist... But things didn't really go as planned, which is the major problem when you start something with expectations. I thought I could deal with my high school friends deciding to go to Stellenbosch instead of UCT by making new friends there, and I did, and for that I am really thankful, but I still missed the Maties quite a bit. I was hoping to have this personality revamp as I left the area I grew up in and moved onto a completely different part of Cape Town, but I was disappointed once more to find that I struggled to adjust to the way of life outside of the one I'm used to, and that ruined a lot of the new experience for me. And as for the water? Haha there's no such thing as boy producing water apparently... It was just a coincidence and nothing has come my way since the previous boys from the university on the mountain.

However, like I said, I don't want to turn this into a miserable ending because it isn't the end yet and I still have two years to go. And a good six months of those two years could well be spent in another country figuring out the world from another completely different angle... I guess what the whole reflecting period was about was acknowledging that 2011 didn't go as well as I had hoped when it came to making the transition from high school to university. But at the end it doesn't matter, because bad things happen so that we can grow from them, and without the bad things there would be no good things. And also, last year wasn't a total nightmare. I had some really good days and met some really really awesome people who I hope I will have the guts to speak to again this year. I guess tomorrow when I hit the registration queue I'm going to need to do it without letting disappointments and embarrassments from last year keep me from being open to new experiences that will inevitably come with 2012... my guess is that it's really time to kick the defeatist attitude and get shit happening when it comes to pursuing things... I'm gonna start being the badass that I know I was destined to be from the day I marched into this world way earlier than I should've.

Yup. Watch me go.

Power Speech - Charlie Chaplin 'The Great Dictator'

From the past, but timelessly relevant. 

Found while skimming the twitter feed today: 

@ABlakeley

Posting this again, because I think everyone should hear this powerful speech about freedom by Charlie Chaplin bit.ly/svYEOx

It was the first time I'd seen this clip or hear of this film for that matter. My age gives me away here doesn't it! It can't be helped. However I'm glad that I did come across it because I was really inspired and moved. More so that what he says here, is still exceptionally relevant today, almost 70 years after the film was made. 

"We think too much, feel too little."

“The Aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together, the very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood for the unity of us all.”

These were my two favourite quotes, but I was really spoilt for choice as he says so much that makes sense. 

I made a connection with how some view the digital world today. It reminded me of the 'London Riots' and how social media was used as a medium at first to arrange the chaos and then to attack it and then to mend the city. (see #riotcleanup on twitter). 

Gotta love a bit of Friday inspiration!
