Do you know what it means to be aware of yourself?

I'll go into further detail later.. this is just the introduction.

"You can lead a man to knowledge..."

This is how I've been feeling the whole week. Its time to change this up.

I'm gonna do my part to be more proactive. Perhaps I can give you some stuff to think about over the next series of posts.... hmmm..

I got this image from a friend's facebook page. Thanks Alioune :)

Become more AWARE: "The Madness of a Lost Society"

This is my way of getting people to become more aware. I thought I was just gonna be mad yesterday and get over it today because I've expressed this so many times in the past but I think I'll keep the momentum going for a while.

Think!

This morning, my friend came to me and sparked a conversation about the Illuminati. We then got into a deeper convo about the government, in general, and some of the malicious motives the US has. The part that got me hype was the fact that a lot of the stuff is SO OBVIOUS and people just don't take the time to THINK! It's so frustrating. Its enough to make me want to start a riot... seriously. When other countries have a problem with what they're government is doing, the citizens go NUTZ. Why don't the American people have that passion?? We're getting tricked and its not even like we're being blindly led!

Anyway... I put in the Lauryn Hill station on Pandora and heard this song. I know I blogged it before but its perfect for how I''m feeling. My favorite verse it the last verse. I highlighted some lyrics to pay attention to...

All I'm asking if for us to take time out to think about why it so difficult to survive in this society.... If you still don't see it, its no mistake. Its all part of the plan. Educate yourself.

Egg n Spoon logo by Graphic Designer, David Airey

My favorite logo this year. I always liked Typography in school because you can see a letter with an image from the same graphic. You can definitely see the egg and spoon as its own image. This is real design.

"Being successful means something different to each person...

My aesthetic, lately

I've been on the "earth tones" thing lately. I found these beads and watch while I was in China and the metal bracelet is from NY. I think they give off an energy that match how I've been feeling, lately... organic. Even my diet, while I was away, had me feeling more earthy. I ate a lot of vegetables, fruits, and fish. I also drank a lot of natural juices and water. I don't like the idea of genetically modified food and I've been trying to stay away from it. Who knows what kind of side effects you can get from them in the future, ya kno? On a side note: I've been doing a lot of prayer and meditation, as well, and I'm convinced that GRATITUDE and HUMILITY are absolutely necessary for success.

I LOVE HONG KONG!

I had some time to kill before my flight back to the US so I set out to explore HK again. I was by myself this time around tho. I'm not gonna lie... at first, I was a little nervous to walk around alone, but it was cool. I had this. I'm just so glad they speak English there.   

 Hong Kong is a lot like NYC... I would definitely live here if I had the chance.

 You can't even find 7-11's this easily in NYC... I was surprised

 You can't really see all that well what kinda food this is but up close it looks like octopus parts and smelled toooo crazy for me to consider trying. 

 I couldnt NOT take a pic of this store name .. lol. 

 I wish I knew what the writing meant. This is ART.
