I dont always post like this, but when I do, I mean it! Time is a very interesting thing; man-made and implemented into our daily way of life. I suppose its great for organizational purposes, but why allow it to be much else? Ive been known to forget my age, forget others ages, and so on. Ive also been told that this is a great feature to have; to not be negatively impacted, restricted, or too overly influenced by this concept we humans refer to as time. Ive noticed over the years how many peoples lives seem to revolve about and be directed by the dictation of time; causing them to generate excuses or other statements that pertain to their age at the given time, often restricting them mentally, physically, and spiritually. This is a concept that truly does run some peoples lives and causes them to exist in an unhappy, negative, dogmatic manner. I, personally, feel that time and age should, strictly, be utilized only for organizational purposes- that one should never attach unreasonable standards, restrictions, or other self-imposed negative energies to them. There are many external influences that propose and intend to break our spirit through some enigmatic, negative entity of time or age. Unfortunately, this sometimes infiltrates the minds of others and results in a cascade of detriments to ones life as a sentient, flourishing, unlimited organism that, for all we truly know, has more to experience beyond this time and age, which we have cleverly crafted for our experience on Earth. I feel that I have always been somewhat of a non-conformist in a way, so I suppose that mind state sets me up to question and often cast aside thoughts and ways of life typical to many. I, personally, have continued to live a more profound, meaningful, and happy life each and every birthday and year Ive experienced and learned through. I intend to learn and experience more, to live unrestrained by the limits of time and age, to not be overly influenced by other aspects of the external world that surrounds us. For example, religion, one way of life, or one spiritual path; to instead, find my own and understand that I am myself a spiritual being, capable of my own multitudes of thought and will, and have been able to long before time, age, religion, and so on. What makes people think they have to do certain things by a certain time? Why do people feel they must? What makes people think they must fulfill a standard? To be social accepted? To follow the path of another wishing to influence you? These things have always been personal wonders of mine. Sure, there are times where a timeline suffices to provide relevance; where we must conform to some degree to survive, but I think many fail to understand that it is not always a requirement; that it is, more than not, a strangle hold placed upon ones life and intentions of being. In conclusion, choose to live happy and without restriction, whatever may be attempting to make you feel less enlightenment than what is possible. Whether this restriction is age, time, religion, work, relationships, or anything else. Choose to spend your time wisely and willfully, to whole-heartedly invest in yourself, to spend your time working in a manner that is rewarding to you in all forms- these are some of the things Ive found to be of the utmost importance in my 29 years of being (not of age). After all, we might as well enjoy this time and all the ages we are to become in the future. Be humbled by the simplicity of just being and being able to be- were very fortunate to be here. I love you all, thanks for being and participating in my life at some point or another. Youre only as old as the last time you changed your mind. Think for yourself and question authority. My advice to people today is as follows: if you take the game of life seriously, if you take your nervous system seriously, if you take your sense organs seriously, if you take the energy process seriously, you must turn on, tune in, and drop out. -Timothy Leary
