How unique are you…??

Open your eye

-How unique are you…?? And what if our love wasn’t just a passing fad?? What if our devotion could be timeless, not held prisoner by mood swings, not held prisoner by overwhelming passions, not best suited for moments of joy and prosperity alone??

-Open your unique eye. Our past, present, and future are all the same, just as long as our hearts are one and our minds are freed from thoughts of misfortune and self-victimization. Can you love yourself even if the skies come down on you??

See the truth

-Allow the world to turn, people to be what they want, events to sway and collapse with the passing of time. Let your thoughts and feelings pass like the weather, which is unexpected and dramatic too often. You hold on to yourself beyond all that drama, and all over again know the deep, timeless love that is true.

-Can you let go of the illusion ?? People grow old and die. Flowers wither away. Prophets and news speak of the end of times in some aspect. And yet, everything is as it is meant to be. Nothing is fatal. Nothing is real.

-So, keep a mind alert and see the truth of our love, which does not grow old and die, which does not wither away, which does not end with the times. But, this ancient knowledge, this great understanding, this cosmic way of life, requires your courage to let the world go. How unique are you…??

Self-Analysis

A Little Tough Love

I guess it is easier and more convenient for many of us to complain, to victimize ourselves, to blame society for our troubles. But, to be straightforward, it is not the smart thing to do. You know me, guys. I don’t like to sugarcoat anything. I have suffered a lot in life, so I have learned much discipline for myself as a very happy consequence.

I am tough with myself, so I am the same way with my writing here. And this mental toughness led me to write uniquely my fantasy stories. (By the way, feel free to check out my books in this site, so you know what I’m talking about). And so, let’s see, we all have desires, passions, goals. Maybe we are decided. Maybe not so much. But the smart way is to start and never complain. To keep going.

There is no failure

How to keep going?? By getting out of your own head, by shaking yourself and changing your mental habits, and by blaming only yourself for your path in life. It might sound harsh, but it is required to be tough with ourselves to stop focusing on others and shift that focus onto ourselves. Anyone can do anything, with patience, with commitment, with love for what you want. This is an unwavering love that makes no excuses and that believes not in failure. Ever not in failure.

We don’t really fail, we learn and move on. So, remember that. It is all perspective. Loser believe in failure. Winners believe in lessons learned. We, winners, move on and keep creating, keep working, keep taking small steps towards our goals. It is about you, about commitment to yourself, about feeling good about you and your character. Self-victimization takes us nowhere. You want power?? Then keep going without complaining. It is what I do, so it is what I know works.

How You Become Stronger

If you are going to do it, do it with passion and perseverance. Make sure that is what you truly want. Envision obstacles and challenges first. Imagine yourself going through heartache and disappointment. Ready yourself for whatever the future may hold. For this, use your imagination and intuition.

In this way, you will become stronger and you will not give up easily. And so, you will go on because of you, because you are stronger of mind now; and you will also understand that the government, and all the people, and all the events around you do not matter in your unique story. Because only you matter.

Self-care 101

Take Responsibility

A little tough love, because the truth might hurt your ego now; but only this brings true freedom, which is increased capacity for love and happiness. The world around you does not understand what love and happiness is. They do not understand where it originates either. But why should you remain one more amongst the sheep and ignorant??

So, the way we show ourselves care, love, empathy, and commitment to our own well-being is not just by desiring it. It’s by taking action and getting out of our comfort zones. You research for food that is healthy for you. You avoid buying foods that are unhealthy for you. You commit to exercise and you make it your priority.

Stop with The Excuses

You must put yourself first and dedicate time for these activities. Ignore commercials trying to sell you what is not healthy. Ignore what your family and friends eat. Ignore what the world shoves in front of you as bad influence, because your health and happiness is only something you create by personal/individual action.

You cannot blame, or put the responsibility on others when it comes to this. This might sound harsh to you, but as long as you keep seeking excuses, or even postponing it, you will not become truly self-aware. Self-awareness begins inside you and it is about getting rid of your stubbornness, comfort, and ignorance. Accept and live the truth.

Get rid of all your bad habits. All of them. Study your actions and see what you have to change. Do not dwell on it. Do not overthink it. Because, if you do, then excuses will take over and kill the light of intelligence dawning in your mind. And, think about it, it is not just about you; but it is about giving the best example to the ones you love. Are you still making excuses??

My eBay store

I apologize. I usually schedule my blogs earlier on Fridays, but I was running late today. Ugh, so many things going on during the week. I like to keep busy. Still, I wanted to share with you a project close to my heart and that I’ve been working on for about a year now. I just added a special page on my website where I showcase my Dark Fantasy books, and now where I also display my eBay store.

And I hope your week went well. Things take time to work out. Sometimes specific things are harder than others. But in my experience, if you truly find value in what you do, whatever that is, then you must make the decision ever single day to continue pushing and not give up. You owe it to yourself. Commit and work hard. I live by that.

So, a little bit about my new project then: Asa’s Selections is my new store. More in my page (in this site). But it is simply a store dedicated to good clothing items at a discount or low prices. I buy from liquidators and big markets like Walmart and Target. I have some non-clothing items. But it is mostly about clothing. Check it out if are interested.

Just so you know, right now, and for a few more days, I’m running 10% discount on all items with code ASA2024SALE at checkout.

My AI Book Covers

-So, I want to get you up to speed on what I’ve been doing regarding my books. Just in case you don’t know: I’m a self-published author. I do other things, but I am a creator at heart. So whether is painting, drawing, graphic design, storytelling, editing, and now AI-generated work, I am all over it. It’s my passion. To be honest, I think my life would be terrible without creativity.

-But specially storytelling and creating fantastical characters and places. You know, something that can make you dream and think about the unusual, weird, and awesome. Okay, so let me tell you then. (And by the way, thanks for reading this; it means a lot to me that you are taking time just to read it. So, much appreciation, my friend.). About AI (Artificial Intelligence) then. I have to admit, I am sort of obsessed with it.

I like to try new things and find out those things I really want on my own. My biggest thing is Curiosity. After creativity, of course. Okay, so I have been learning how to create my book covers with AI. And I have found it a little challenging at first, but I really got the hang of it now. So, I want to show you the images and book covers I made for my BENJAMIN JONES series. I’m pretty excited and proud of my work. I hope you like them as well. The first images are for book #1- “The Call of The Shaman”:

These next ones are for “The Return of The Gods”:

And “The Book of 1st Witchcraft”:

And we get to the last ones. This is “Shadow Ghouls of Nergus”:

And so, I am currently working on #5, titled “Son of Darkness.” I am also working on other projects currently, but I am still eager and passionate to continue the dark fantasy BENJAMIN JONES series. This interesting fantasy story of chosen ones, gods, demons, aliens and other dimensions has yet a lot to explore. So, it’s going slowly but surely. Thanks again for your time.

The Doom & Gloom

Attached & Influenced

But are you willing to let it go and free yourself, even if it means cutting the chains to the system and to the society you made an important part of your life already?? Everybody, all the time, in all times cry doomsday. Religions with their prophets, heaven, hell.

Politics, what’s better or worse for the country. Economy, difficult times, better times, what to do in your life, what not to do in your life. Everything and everyone is attached and influenced by this.

Ideas & Illusions

Why?? Because it works. Because it has been established in this way a long, long time ago. It all began when man started to grow intellectual capacities and find out he could influence the mentality of others around him.

So, by doing this he created systems in his society. And then, he became attached to his own ideas. Throughout the years, he made himself and others believe these ideas as realities.

Ignorant & Scared

Realities that bring insecurity, and anxiety, and jealousy, and self-pity, and all kinds of fear. But every day is a miracle, if you can see society and its systems as just ideas. Nothing is truly doomed, not as long as you don’t believe in it.

Your belief makes it real to you. Your belief takes you to overwhelm yourself with fear, and then it takes you to create a different world inside your mind, and then this world makes you ignorant and scared of whatever could be coming next.

In love with Life and with Yourself

And what’s coming next is unknown–in relationships, in the economy, in politics, in your life. So, detach yourself from the doom and gloom, from what others say, and especially from your own anxiety and fears.

To fully detach yourself from all of it allows your mind to be free and uncluttered, and this leads you to be brave, confident, yourself entirely. Then, and only then, you become 100% in love with your life and with yourself; and, as a result, no one and nothing can shake your determination and bring you down.

To feel lonely…

The Pursuit of Happiness

Self-reflection: The natural ability to be patient and inquire into yourself. You might be aware of its process. You might not be aware of its process. Most people are not aware of it. So, in the same context, what really leads you to feel lonely?? Attaching yourself to whatever is outside you does.

Relying on people to feel happy, loved, satisfied and fulfilled in your life. Relying on the exterior, whatever or whomever it is, is the roller coaster, what society ignorantly calls The Pursuit of Happiness.

The Rat Race

They make it a chase, a hunt, something you have to daily struggle and fight to achieve. You might have to struggle to achieve a relationship, or money, or a position you want, or to be accepted by others; but you never should have to struggle or fight for love or happiness.

So, if you do struggle for it daily, then it means you really don’t know what it is, which means you do not know or even understand yourself beyond the petty desires of your own mind. But you are not alone. 98% of the world is in the rat race with you as well.

What Festers inside

Achieving your desires might be important. We all want to be successful at what we want. But living entirely for achievements makes you feel anxious, frustrated, insecure, lonely. So, learn how to separate the desires of your mind from the depth of your heart.

Most of the time, people confuses these two with one: This is what creates frustration and loneliness, which is the ignorance of not really knowing the two apart. You may think you love something, or someone; but it turns out, much later, that you made a mistake because you followed anxiety and loneliness.

And then you blame your exterior, others, the world, when things hurt you or do not go as you expected. This festers jealousy, hate, feelings of desperation, lack of self-worth in you. And it is all because you followed impulses, passions, and you never self-reflected.

Life

Vital Focus

Remind yourself: Living a better life is about appreciating what you have. And living a happy life is also about appreciating what you have. Society, and our individual intellectual mind, makes us lose focus of what really matters.

All true love is born in you when you are fully satisfied with your life as it is, which means focusing and appreciating what you have in this moment–whatever that is. There is no true joy without this vital focus.

And that is what life is; namely a moment of focus in what we call time, space, or evolution. But if you focus on the stress and the bad things that could happen, then you are not fully enjoying life.

As You Make It

Being alive without enjoying life brings all sorts of mental and physical distortions and illnesses. Accept yourself, your situation, others, as they are; but do not dwell on the negativity or in the unpleasantness, instead focus on your own well being and on moving on.

At the end of the day, life is as precious as you make it. The worst anyone can do is to wish this, that, or what others have. Wishing, and attaching yourself to this wish, inevitably brings feelings of suffering and self-victimization.

It leads to feelings of jealousy and regret, and these paralyse you while taking away your capacity for growth. Life becomes worthless if you feel no capacity for growth, which is lack of value and confidence to work on yourself and on what you want.

The Reason You Create

Nobody likes to feel like this, because it changes your mood, because it makes you see life as being unjust, and because it makes you feel like you do not matter in the world. This creates a void in your heart, which is the kind of loneliness that makes you suffer and even makes you question the reason for existing.

And, of course, existing in itself has no reason. The “burden”, or greatest challenge in our lives, is to give our existence, our life, meaning. But I am talking about the kind of meaning that rises from your own mental wellbeing.

“Being born again”. So, forget about your past, what you’ve suffered, what somebody else did to you, and be born again. This is done by training your mind to appreciate what you have now, by not comparing yourself or your life, and by patiently taking steps to build more of what you want/to bring more meaning into your life.

The True Gift

Strength & Health

Any true affection must be demonstrated by letting the other person be who they are. And when they are upset or anxious, be there for them; but also know when to give them space, and when to walk away.

It’s not just in the words or in the time together; but in the time apart and in the times of silence as well. Because what connection and all affection, if real, need to grow strong and be healthy is freedom.

The Only Gift

The gift of freedom. If there is no freedom to be who you are, then there is no space for growth, either as an individual and/or together as a family. Always seek to feel free.

And if you don’t feel free, ask for the respect of freedom to be given to you. Otherwise, don’t waste mental health and time, walk away and seek freedom as an individual. Make no excuses for this.

Your Life To Live

Excuses make the disease grow stronger, and in time having no freedom will seem normal; and your mind and heart will be affected, as your belief in yourself and self-respect will be damaged irreparably as well.

This is no life to live. Because life is about enjoying yourself, and about discovering yourself. If you are enslaved, if you have no freedom within you, then you cannot discover yourself and your worth.

The Only Constant

The Self That I Am

Who am I…?? I am not a man of many words really. I do like to write my thoughts and feelings, perceptions and discoveries; however, in person, I’m not really into chit-chatting or talking too much. Not even with my neighbors, friends, or even family. I like to be direct and blunt when I speak.

I like to observe and keep my personal, innermost discoveries or thoughts to myself, unless I feel a need to make myself heard by others, which it rarely happens because I don’t really concern myself with what others think or feel about my behavior or the way I am. And it is so because I value my mental freedom more than anything else in life.

What I Know For Certain

And I know that in society it is promoted and influenced in us to always be extremely friendly, and smile a lot, and to be very kind, and to be accepting of everything in terms of other people’s behaviors. But this is why most people, without knowing, fall into fakeness.

Not being yourself entirely, or adjusting yourself to your surroundings or to the feelings of others, is just very exhausting and damaging to your own mental wellbeing. This inevitably leads to physical illnesses and traumas, no matter your age or emotional strength. It is just not me, because it is not freedom.

The Heights of Self

What I am, what I seek, what I value the most above everything else is freedom. Freedom to tell it how it is. Freedom to control my failure and success. Freedom to control what I choose, what and how I feel, and what I want in my path and direction in life.

Not fitting into philosophies, and into groups, and into systems, and into romantic ideals. Because fitting into these, whether you understand it or not, means you are enslaved, which means you cannot be entirely yourself because somebody else controls you. Once you fully accept yourself, and put yourself above everything else, is simple really.
