Wake Up

“This is the real secret of life—to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.” Alan Watts

To be awake is to become more aware of how our life is influenced, the ways in which we are coerced into believing and living a particular kind of existence. The engineered design of our reality. The creation of the delusional state of being that slaves us to a conditioned life.

Not a life not of deep happiness, joy, peace and calmness but a life of suffering. A life characterized by confinement, conformity, craving, agitation, dissatisfaction, attachment, hollowness and loneliness.

We never know when death may arrive so to sleep away the time we have now, in hate, anger, addiction, sorrow, suffering, discontent, stagnation, or any other negative state of being, is pointless – fruitless. Don’t’ sleep it away. The time to wake up is now. Every day, week, month and year we get a new beginning. Don’t squander it asleep. Live life to the brink of your potential, dreams and desires. Wake up!
