Go for greatness

Style & Uniqueness

The more I grow in personal wisdom and also in my writing craft, the more I think about what style and uniqueness mean in my life. And I like these following quotes, which made me think deeper about it:

-“Elegance is refusal.” ~ Coco Chanel.

-“Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn.” ~ Orson Welles.

–“One of the really bad things you can do to your writing is to dress up the vocabulary, looking for long words because you’re maybe a little bit ashamed of your short ones.” ~ Stephen King.

Creating your style

So, for style to be wholeness you must create yourself in all aspect. Whatever you do, the way to be different and stand out is the way of uniqueness. So, If you have a unique style and you want to create a new way to go about things, then practice to master it. Do not listen to others.

Most people are attached to the path society has already established for them. But in order for you to achieve greatness, you have to leave the close-minded masses and the way they choose to enslave themselves to the established thought.

Break the rules properly

A billion people may do the same you do, but if you are unique and bring your own style to your work then you’ll be recognized by your originality. See, no one is better or worse. That feeling of being more or being less, that is your own ego.

Achieve self-control over it, then you can create your own image and reach your uniqueness. I always say that rules are meant to be broken, but it’s only acceptable to break them when you master your own style–in your writing, in business, in fashion, in dating, in marriage, in everything.

Under The Moon

Effects of the full moon

I personally find interesting the effects the moon has on life, as the sun has. So, I wanted to share some facts that I already knew and some others that I’ve found doing some research:

1- Veterinarians say that animals are more restless and unruly during full moon.
2- Migratory birds follow the patterns of the full moon for timing and finding their path.
3- The full moon amplifies charges in living cells.
4- Emergency rooms see more patients on full moon.
5- Ovulation and sexual desire peak during full moon.
6- Some people tend to become more impulsive and emotional (angry, excited, lustful, stubborn, etc.) nearing and during a full moon.

These are just some ways in which the moon affects us and other living beings. But there are, of course, effects produced on the actual environment around us as well.

Increasing self-awareness

The thing that I wanted to bring to your attention is that the moon affects our brain functioning (electric circuits/signals) and our emotional bodies (the way we feel) too, especially in the ones with less self-control who ignore this.

So, it’s all about knowledge of self and self-discipline. Here are some tips that I use to ground myself:

1- Meditation: it expands your awareness and brings harmony to your mind and body.
2- Cleanse: it means to clean your space. It is teaching your mind self-discipline through the everyday living, to be more healthy and to keep your personal space without clutter and looking more ordered.
3- Self-care: create more quality time for yourself. Study your thoughts and feelings in depth. Don’t just react to things, even to small things. Take a bath or do something calming for yourself. I have found that journaling is very liberating. It’s all about expressing yourself and letting more harmony spread in your body.

Balance & Harmony within

The beginning of experience

So, the most important thing in life, and the base or origin of everything we experience, is our well-being, our health of body and mind. We must reach harmony and balance within ourselves in order to reach love and happiness in our lives.

First and foremost then is what we eat, how we eat, and the times we eat. What I put in my body becomes the energy that makes me–regarding the way I think, the way I feel, the way I treat myself and others, the habits and the actions in all other aspects of my life.

Strengthen your immune system

Here are 2 things I follow daily to eat right and to stregthen my immune system. Perhaps you can find some use in these as well:

1- Limiting greatly your intake of sugars: Our bodies make Insulin. And insulin stimulates your liver and muscle cells to store glucose (sugar). It also inhibits your liver and kidneys from making glucose. Needless to say, insulin must be kept in harmony. If levels are too high then large amounts of fat are stored, bacteria festers, illnesses and allergies, etc. So, in order to balance glucose and keep it in harmony, you have to lower the ingestion of sugars.

2- Do not snack between meals: When we snack between meals, insulin levels rise, which means the balance and harmony in our physiology is broken. Losing weight and having a strong immune system is almost impossible, especially for most people age 30+. Besides, snacking between meals, contrary to popular belief, makes you more hungry and it does not leave your stomach time to clean itself.

Upcoming Dark Fantasy novel – Jan. 2023

This an excerpt of my upcoming Fantasy Dark novel, “Shadow Ghouls of Nergus” – #4 in the epic series BENJAMIN JONES.

CHAPTER 1

-13th century BC. North Eastern Mongolia-

-Burhan Khaldun (God Mountain)-

-Place of the mysterious blue-gray wolf-

“It was one of those cold winters that would enter your eyes, numb your skin and bones, and soon leave you unable to move at all. Snow was everywhere. Wwooossshhh… The merciless winds whispered alluring songs of death here. They also spoke of dark omens for the living…

“Bolormaa and Batu had climbed the steep mountain for almost an hour. Bolormaa was with child. Batu, her dear husband, had saved both by escaping their doomed village during the stormy night. The rocks around them were somewhat jagged. And they were exhausted, about to give up and fall rolling down to their horrible demise, to eternal rest from their many troubles…

“Their hands and feet numbed by the freezing cold. The terrain of the steep mountain unforgiving. Their clothes too thin to fight this winter. And, as Bolormaa felt the pregnancy contractions again, she clutched her stomach; for the pain was very acute now, and she couldn’t hold on any longer. She lost footing and fell backwards…

“But fortunately Batu caught her as best he could. “My love!”…

“It’s coming now!” she cried. “It’s coming now!”…

“He looked around him. His baby was coming. But what could he do?? There was only death here. And yet, the responsibility fell on him. So he held her tight and rested on a rock. And soon he saw a cave not far from where they were…

“He’d have to deliver the baby himself there. Then he looked at his wife in terrible pain. But he became even more concerned when he saw her losing blood. Was her womb bleeding?? Was she about to lose the baby?? He became petrified…

“Batu??” she called in between cries of agony. “Batu?!”…

“His reaction was swift. He looked around him again. And, as gentle as possible, he helped her up and held her through the complicated…”

The very few…

Acquiring freedom

The feeling of true love and happiness equals freedom. Freedom to think for yourself without influences or bias. Freedom to be yourself without being ashamed or self-conscious in front of others. Freedom to do whatever is healthy and moral without following what others say and do.

Freedom to walk your own path without feeling lonely or odd because you do not choose to walk in the path of others. These are just a few examples of what freedom truly is. Most people in the world do not have it, because true freedom requires courage and a strong personality. Only a very selected few among us actually have freedom.

Losing freedom

These are some examples of why groups, always without your awareness and inducing the illusion of ‘group identity’ in you, rob you of intelligence and moral values:

1- You must assimilate the group’s beliefs and moral values to belong to it, even if you tell yourself that you don’t have to. The programming happens subconsciously.

2- You must be “A Team Player”, which means accepting and following the ventures and commands the group has for you, even if it lacks rationality and intelligence, even if it’s biased and divisive with others outside the group.

3- As you belong to the group, your mind starts shifting from your individual identity to a ‘group identity’. And soon you start creating the way you are, your goals, your values, your way of thinking and feeling, and the truth based on the group.

4- Your attachment to the group’s mentality creates the illusion that you are whole only with the group. In this illusion, you become attached, fascinated, addicted to what the group offers you. Soon, your subconscious creates the program where you believe you are nothing without the group.

Meaning of ‘I love you’…

I love you…??

Just because I say ‘I love you’ does not mean it so. Sometimes it means ‘I admire you’. Sometimes it means ‘You intrigue me’. Sometimes it just means ‘I feel a connection to you and I want to explore it.’

Love, true and pure love, is extremely rare now-a-days; and it’s a long process that, through time and through patience, inspires me, and inspires you. I must get to know you well first. You must break down your walls and your pretentions with me.

But what is beyond it..??

And it is in the psychological and emotional safety we feel, because this must be total freedom from anxiety, freedom from fear to ever fail ourselves. Forget “falling in love”. Forget “trying to make it work”.

Mature love is such: ‘A sacred process of exploration of my Self through you, and through your openness with me.’ ‘A process of exploration of your Self through me, and through my openess with you.’ Nothing more. Nothing less.

From specter to human

Dark Fantasy/Coming of age/Paranormal & Occult

It is the 4th book in the series, and I wanted to share with you. Red is the woman, or girl, beside Benjamin Jones who is the main character in my story. And she is special, because she holds secrets of her own. Below is a little bit of what’s coming…

RED’S STORY

“Back then, a long, long time ago, The Mad Demon King had ruled over the whole land of Nergus. Before that, he’d been one of the 1st demon lords and scourge of the 7 galaxies. Needless to say, he ruled with violence and fear. He’d torture and kill if someone even looked at him directly into his eyes or complained about anything at all concerning his rule of madness…

“Even before this, in most of his reincarnations, he’d been the worst offender. Life after life, his chosen path had been crooked and his darkness had increased to the point of opaquing any glimmer of light left in him. After falling into black magic, evolution gave him what his corrupted mind wanted. He became physically grotesque. Mutated, cursed and alone he became a sadistic sorcerer…

“But this is about Arrdon, the one errant ghoul to be later known as Red. Arrdon was just an essence without gender, purpose and particular way in existence. It just roamed the land of Nergus, like many others did, in search of reason, excitement, and self-discovery perhaps; but, obviously, never finding anything, just remaining a mere shell without personality…

“It had, like the rest, been given birth or conjured into the world of the living by the absolute ruler, who was now The Mad Demon King. Taken out of The Dark’s Core, darkness was not given a personality of its own. Each new portion taken out of the cosmic pool was part of the collective, thus rendering each new ghoul or form unintelligent and submissive…

“This made each spectral form roaming the land easy to enslave and mold to the king’s very whim. Terribly cruel and a crime against evolution itself. But, as time went by, nature carried its powerful secrets; for nature wanted to know itself, and so it sought the miracle of unique experience even against the established rule of the tyrant…

“There was a cosmic collision, a violent but necessary miracle from the darkest corners of space. The shower of rocks, energy and fire crashed into most of the necro-world, thus affecting its very core, spreading throughout. Nergus and its abyss suffered great alterations regarding structure and life, which included the spectral forms roaming the wretched lands…

“Like a nuclear aftermath, the lasting effects pushed evolution to change its course. The skies changed, the landscape changed, and the consciousness in existence changed as well. Now the gift of self-awareness was born, at a slow but steady pace; however, just a few gained higher self-awareness, most gained just a smidge of it…

“And the ones with higher self-awareness then came to understand themselves more in existence, and so they grew hope and the capacity to visualize a better future. But the ones with lower self-awareness did not come to this realization, and so they just saw themselves, their wretched past, and their self-pity as their forever fate…

“And the ones with higher awareness became rebels against the system of tyranny, because they wanted to be free and choose their own path. And this was so because their higher awareness brought the experience of joy, the birth of self-love, and all true intelligence in them. But The Mad Demon King hated this, obviously; and so, he found a way to torture and kill many Free Thinkers….

“This meant to send them back to the pool known as The Dark’s Core, where they would come back to the collective mind and so The Self would just disappear. But a few escaped from this terrible fate. Arrdon was one of them. It travelled to The Sitchin’s planet, as this planet was well-known for its acceptance of all creatures. In time, the specter recognized the 2 genders within its own self…

“First, the consciousness filled itself with greater empathy for all nature. Then the consciousness grew special wishes and desires based on the new experiences gained with the people around it. And then the female essence overpowered the male’s and Gaimíah, or Red, was born. She now lived with…”

~ ‘Shadow Ghouls of Nergus’.

An amazing journey into the abyss of deception.

Just do your best

With faith & passion

No one is perfect. We all go through something. One day is a good day. Another day is a bad day. Life is a roller coaster, so don’t be too hard on yourself. As I see it, I just do the best I can; and, in time, things get better. You should see it like that too, it’ll help you in this life of unknowns.

I feel that punishing yourself for mistakes or failures in life is pointless. Learning and moving on with faith and passion onto better progress. This is something that I think most of us should focus on, instead of remaing stuck on what didn’t work or didn’t come out as expected.

Transmutation

Energy to transform

I think very strongly about why each one of us can achieve what we want. And, even though I do not know you, I know you can too. We all have a past. We all have learned from it–whether learned a little or a lot. So, this past, which was probably very difficult at times, may bring us pain or strength in our minds.

And what this pain and strength mean, in all honesty, is the same energy. Energy that, through self-awareness, you can use to your advantage, to better your overall thinking, feeling, behaving. This is why we have experiences in life.

Into good fuel

Experiences in life are like fuel. You can create good fuel or bad fuel from them. So, let’s realize that we must create good fuel out of our experiences to achieve what we want. Nothing can be really achieved with bad fuel.

You cannot feel love, happiness, success, if you run on bad fuel–if you are depressed, if you feel victimized, if you are angry or frustrated in life. And even other people and better opportunities in life won’t come near you if you allow yourself to run on this bad fuel. So, for a better you, for a better life, the best fuel out of your experiences.

Unique Dark Fantasy

The magic of storytelling

I set out to professionally write as an author to share my thoughts and experiences with the world, with whomever feels that insights into a better self, a better life are important. I always value the higher self, inner transformation to better my relationships, my creativity, in general my life, the most.

And I feel my journey, my thoughts, my wisdom can inspire or motivate people to find their way as well. So, I started writing non-fiction. But soon I found a way to share all that I wanted to share through the magic of storytelling. So I started my Dark Fantasy series “BENJAMIN JONES”.

A unique story

The story of an indigenous orphan boy who seeks to discover what really happened to his parents, also to discover his magic and the mysterious connection he has to ancient Sumerian gods; and all while he meets with unknown forces of evil. And so, I would like to share with you a very special review I received on the 2nd book in the series.

Because my style is different. And because I seek to bring also a little awareness to the reader in a time when the world needs it the most. Please check out the following review. Once in a while, a reader truly gets me 😃🤩🔥❤️✌️

“A supernatural-type novel that could be considered for adults or young adults. If you like the unique way the author writes, it’s an engaging read. Besides being fictionally entertaining, there are many correlations to the current situation in our world today, but only a small percentage of aware-enough people… (Read Full Review here)
