sufficiency????

..."How much money do u really need to:
a)meet your basic obligations
b)do the things you want to do?" (KAYAK! bike, hammock, backpack...)

we've got to keep working! but only to the point of sufficiency. NOT abundance!
CHRIS!! :)

"Once you have that amount, you have the walk-away number. That's the 
number with which you can comfortably walk away from any commitment 
that is incompatible with who you are and what you really want. You can 
start to focus on building a life more than building a bank account. You 
learn to value experiences (things you do) more than possessions (things you 
own).  YESSSS!!!

***

One of the best feelings in the world comes from the awareness that 
everything will be okay. If you have that feeling, you know exactly what 
I mean.

If you don't have it, it's not that difficult to get to it. It just involves a shift 
in thinking, a desire for change, and the courage to be different. Like a lot 
of unconventional choices, not everyone will relate. Some people won't get 
it at all, others will get it but be unable to let go of deeply-held beliefs about 
scarcity,
and a few will embrace sufficiency and experience a life of purposeful 
adventure."

ADVENTUREEEE!! :)

keeping it real...

chris has a Twitter??

ahhhh I LOVE THIS GUY!

"For better or worse, what I do is 100% legit. I do fly First Class (sometimes) and I do sleep on the floor of the airport and in random guesthouses in poor countries. It's all part of the adventure.

Sometimes I'll fall behind with some things -- like when I can't take a real shower or am riding in buses for 13 hours through South America. But whether I'm online or not at any particular moment, you all are welcome to be a part of this in whichever way you want.

You've got email updatesRSS, Twitter, free manifestos, 108 countries, Store, etc. Take your pick."


legiiiiiit! one day we will meet him for sureeee!

keep rocking the universeeee

WHAT DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GET OUT OF LIFE?
WHAT CAN YOU OFFER THE WORLD THAT NO ONE ELSE CAN?

NOTHING CAN STOP YOUU!!!
get out there. 

GO! DO! BE!!
magging/packingggg
To be truly awesome, you have to go above and beyond the efforts of those around you, look for alternative solutions, and refuse to back down from the truth.

I'm a CAR CRASH!!!

Underwater I wrote drowning 
I use to be such good, good swimmer
But for now my head is in the clouds 
I'm a silly love song 
A twisted elbow crush song
I would go to jail with only boys
Just to prove I was as tough as you
And when I get out for good behavior 
I'll be writing love songs 
Silly banging knee songs
I'm a car crash 
But I have to get up
And every morning it's a clean up
All I need is time, time to love you
The forecast is grey
But we're staying inside
You must live close 
I've seen you drive by
I left signs on the lawn 
Where have they gone?
Did you take them to tease me?
To follow or lead me?
You're a silly love song
A verse chorus and such
Some silly love song 
A verse chorus and such 
I'm a car crash 
But I have to get up
And every morning it's a cleanup
All I need is time, time to love you
All I need is time 
All I need is time
All I need is time, time to love you
All I need is time 
All I need is time
All I need is time, time to love you
Baby all I need is time, time to love you
Time to love you

cheap and available??

idol=

Don't you dare speak for someone you don't know.
They'll feel it in the back of their throat. 
We know I can't construct a poem 
Cause words like girls get bored and run 
C'est la vie, I say "I've got so many better things" 
I've got nothing, you should see me, 
I smoke myself to sleep. 

And blame postmodern things I can't relate, 
Like summer camp and coastal states. 
Like alcohol and coffee beans. 
Dance floors and magazines. 
I think its safe to say I've only got myself to blame
But boys in swooping haircuts are bringing me down,       HAAAAAHAHAHA swooping haircuts. taking pics of themselvessss!!
Taking pictures of themselves. 

And so I walk the web in search of love, 
But always seem to end up stuck. 
I'm finding flaws in everyone.          (maybe??)
I've reached the point where all I want, 
Is to sleep around in hopes that I will catch back up. 
We are parallel lines we’re running in circles, 
We're never meant to cross. 

I'm at a loss, you were my tangerine, 
My pussycat, my trampoline. 
Now alls I get are wincing cheeks, 
And dog problems, I signed a lease. 
Thinking my heart belonged at 93rd and park. 
Instead I broke a girl’s heart, 
And flew back to Phoenix to finish the year as it started. 

Can you hear me? 
Are you listening? 
This is the sound of my heart aching. 
And I hope it's entertaining, 
Cause for me it’s a bitch. 
Was it worth it? 
When you slept with him? 
Did you get it all out of your system? 

I am a man
Holding it all 
I couldn’t breath 
Coming across
I didn’t know 
I couldn’t give up 

B is for believing you'd always be here for me. 
E is for everything, even when we see it though. 
C, c is for seeing through you, you are a fake, which brings me to 
A because, because, you always run away.             (becca??!?!)

I never finish phrases, I misspell. 
Open arms are prison cells. 
When I said, "I hate what I've become" 
I lied, I hated who I was. 
So when you start to wonder 'bout the pain in my throat, 
Then don't you ever, no never, ever, speak for someone you don't know.

realist? idealist? OPTIMIST!!

...I LOVE CHRIS!!

"In the Rock-Paper-Scissors game of life, every day we have 
endless choices. Door A or B, blue or red pill, etc. Here are a few 
suggestions:
 
1. Hope beats fear
2. Abundance beats scarcity
3. Yes beats no
 
A few years ago, I started saying yes to things. It wasn't a 
gimmick like the movie, and I didn't say yes to everything - 
but I went from looking for reasons to say no and started looking 
for ways to say yes.
  • Round-the-World trip while I'm still in school? OK.
  • Climb Table Mountain in South Africa when I'm supposed 
    to be working? Alright.
  • Go running in the middle of the night in Sri Lanka? Sure.
Conventional living is all about being balanced, well-rounded, 
risk-adverse, and safe. The problem is that well-rounded people 
rarely do anything interesting. Balanced people don't usually 
change the world.
 
The alternative is to truly live, and come back tired - even if you're 
not traveling. Be better than you have been before. Give more than 
you take. Embrace the extremes. Say yes."

...SAYYYYY YESS!!

"Final Thoughts:
 That thing you're working on today - will it matter one year from 
now? If so, great. Keep doing that. If not, why are you doing it?"
thank youuuuu CHRIS!

off centered stuff for off centered people



War war war
Talking bout you is such a bore
I'd rather talk about moi

Like do you know that cost of A.K.'s
Up in Africa
20 dollars ain't shit to you
But that's how much they are
So they gonna use the shit just to get far

Is girls, diamonds
Helping you?
Don't you like my bandanna?
My stains hang low
On my shirts like ay yai ay
Monkey brains and banana
I'll hit you with my antenna
I put soap in my eye
Make it red so I look raa

Ra ra
So I woke up with my holy quran and found out I like Cadillac
So we shooting till the song is up
Little boys are acting up
Baby mothers are going crazy
And the leaders all round cracking up
We goat rich we fry
Price of living in a shanty town just seem very high
We still like T.I.
We still look fly
Dancing as we shooting up
And lootin just to get by.

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
"Where is my mind?"

War war war
Who made me like this
Was it me and god in co-production
My devil's on speed dial
Everytime I take the wrong direction

All I want is one thing and that is what you got
Sometimes I go lose my mind then I feel numb

There's 24 hours in a day
I used to spilt it 8, 8, 8
8 work
8 sleep
8 for play
Now I give it all it takes

People on the Internet
A new life for the intellect
People judge me so hard
'cause I don't floss my titty set
I was born out of dirt like I'm porn in a skirt
I was a little girl who made good with all that I blurt
I put people on the map that never seen a map
I show 'em something they ain't never seen
And hope they make it back!!!!

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head'll collapse when there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
"Where is my mind?"

it's sunday! were filthy

Perhaps you don't meet people in the course of your daily life, or you're not connecting with the right type of person. First of all decide what you have to offer to a future partner, by working out what sort of things interest you. No one is going to like all these options, but they are ways of widening your circle of friends.

1. GOLF

Golfing is a male activity, get lessons and join them on the course. Men network on the golf course all the time, take it further and progress to flirting. Even if you are not good at sports, the men will most often be encouraging of your efforts.

2. GO TO A SPORTS BAR ON GAME NIGHT

Why watch big sporting events at home when you can hang out a sports bar complete with big-screen TV, electronic sports games?

This is a particularly good way to meet people if you are sporty yourself, impress the guys with your knowledge. Sport is a participation event and it is a lot more fun watching in a group than alone.

3. VOLUNTEER TO WORK FOR A NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION

People who are prepared to give a little of their free time are often very caring people, capable of passion and commitment, there are loads of group activities, that mean you can widen your circle of friends, with the same interests. There is always the possibility of a relationship progressing to a date.

4. JOIN A POLITICAL CAMPAIGN

If you are politically inclined and have an interest in which you are prepared to give up some time, this is a good way to find a date. Not only that but you can be sure if you have both joined to fight for the same cause, then you have at least one thing in common. If it does not work to find a date than you have lost nothing, but will have at least widened your circle of friends.

5. EVENING CLASSES

You do not have to be academic here, it is not necessary to study Physics. Find out about something that you have always wanted to learn. Take the time to study another language, or do something "arty". Art classes depending where you live, cover a very wide base from sculptor, to water colors. Men can always be found in a class about car maintenance etc.

6. TAKE SOME CRITICISM FROM YOUR FRIENDS

Marketing yourself to find a mate is not always easy. Take some advice from friends who have embarked on a successful long term relationship. If you are always attracting the wrong sort of person, ask a friend why they think that is the case. If you have a healthy emotional life, you should spot fairly on in a relationship that someone is going to hurt you. Realize your own worth, some women do really believe that they are not worthy of being loved. Boost your self esteem. If low self esteem is a problem, then try and look at the tip below.

7. ENROLL IN A SELF-IMPROVEMENT WORKSHOP

Men sometimes tend to be more into self improvement than women. However, any body who has taken the steps to enroll and participate in this type of activity are probably sensitive, the chances are they are also looking to interact with other sensitive people. It's a great way for men to find out how women think. Be positive you may not meet the man of your dreams but will probably have boosted your self esteem.

8. JOIN A GYM

Even if you are fit and healthy you can always find men in a gym. If you are not fit, then getting fit is a great way to boosting you self esteem. Being fit gives you a better outlook on life and you feel much better. You are also more relaxed when you look your best.

9. READ "IF THE BUDDHA DATED," BY CHARLOTTE KASL

Buddha means the enlightened one, or one who is awake. Kasl gives you the best advice about how to make, but very significant changes in your life. Part of her advice is to literally make room for a partner in your life. If you have a single bed get a double, if you have only one pillow buy more. She also has some great tips for attracting new people in your life. This isn't mandatory by any means but it will appeal to you once you start reading.

10.STAND BACK AND TAKE STOCK

Men are not lost souls, they are not hiding away. You will have far more chance of connecting with someone if you are personally fulfilled. If you are into sports big time consider competing in a marathon. Take a creative writing course, change you career. Make yourself happy, and have some fun

11 JOIN A HISTORICAL SOCIETY

Even small towns have historical societies, which will search and record the local events in your area in the past. Most of the will probably be male.

12. GET COOKING

O. K. so you know how to cook, often men do not and they will join a cookery class. This is a good one - believe me.

13. LEARN HOW TO PLAY POKER

Most poker players are men, find out how to play, and then join a game.

14.GO TO A BOOK SIGNING

Here is were you can guarantee that you will find someone with similar interests and intellectual pursuits.

15. MAKE MEN FIND YOU

Since the earliest days of mankind, a woman can show a man she is interested in him, the smart one's let him think he is doing the chasing. This is the twenty first century and you can show a man you are interested in him. Catch his eye and then immediately look away, but then look back at him. If he finds you attractive, he will think he has fond you, and will most often make a move.
