The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virgnia

Heard of them?

Neither have I.  My neighbor urged me to watch this documentary about a family from the mountains in good Ol West Virgina.

I have pretty strong opinions on the government "over looking" extreme poverty on US soil, while insisting on "helping" less fortunate peoples around the world. It is all a big spin. In the end, the important people do not give a *blank* about poor people, no matter their location.  Sure, they might get a check signed by the president himself, but that is not getting them anywhere but into more trouble, and possible expanding their hopeless DNA pool.

I am not being pessimistic, rather, open minded.

The people in the ghetto, the mountains, and the third world all have one thing in common... No incentive.

Why do you do what you do every single day? To get paid that cash money? To pay for that adrenaline rush? To eat food that is beyond your imagination good? To go on a fabulous vacation? Overall, these are all reachable goals because YOU have the tools to provide them for yourself. You have jobs, schools, a functioning police station... overall more tools for good than bad. When the only way to feed yourself is to get a government paycheck, get a dangerous, tiring, really hard job (ie. mining from this particular example) or flip drugs and weapons (barf don't get me started on small arms trade).

These people are literally cut off from our reality.  We walk different streets and have different thoughts fly out to the universe to mingle with the stars.

But, it doesn't have to stay that way.  Happiness is viral, and as the world awakens to globalization, more people  awaken to the blindness that the world has been offering. I know I wont stop trying to spread this smile that I carry, I need those smiles to carry me too.

That is all.

Current Reality

My Reality Is Bigger ThanYour Dreams Are


But why, Wayne?

The secret to life is to write your own story. Do it big. DO what makes you happy.  We live in a current reality, your current circumstance does not have to affect where you'll be in a year or any time frame.  I know this from experience.  Each year, each day, I create my reality.  I slip sometimes, I get weighed down by life's conditions, I am human.  But by visualizing what I want, and basing my decisions on how happy I am, I have been able to conquer feats like travel to the middle east and roller blade down a steep hill that runs into high street during rush hour.  


Today I took the day off from "reality" and toned into what makes me smile.  I succeeded.  I learned how to juggle.  I hit the fast pitch baseballs. I painted something colorful. I ate really good food. I created my reality, and damn was it enjoyable.  You see, I will never go hungry or be homeless because I will not let that happen.  My mind and my will are stronger than outside forces of my environment.  


That said, I will leave you with a quote by Albert Einstein,

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”
