The Philosophy of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, Nontoxic Positivity, and More
To flow like water keeps you better able to handle any changes along your life’s path. Frequently, your path in life is spoken of as a road. But much more realistically it’s a river. The flow of a river can be made of many twists and turns. Obstacles like rocks, garbage, and trees can get in the way of the flow. Dams and other stoppages can be created. What’s more, the path of a river can be changed and diverted.
Choosing no path to travel is still a path – but it tends to be unsatisfactory. I have been writing about the philosophy of Pathwalking for over eight-and-a-half years now. In short, Pathwalking is choosing what paths you desire to take in your life. This is a matter of conscious reality creation via mindfulness to find and/or create the things you desire for your life. This is not a quick fix nor instant gratification philosophy. It takes patience, time, and
That can alter how you perceive life, the Universe, and everything. I have never in my life lived in the same place for more than 10 years. The same general area? Sure, more-or-less. But the same home? Never. Thinking back, in fact, I am pretty sure 9 years is the longest I ever lived in a single house. My wife lived in the same house for some 30 years or so. She has vivid, fond memories of her family home.
Even in the current world situation, you both can and should decide on your life choices. Every single day of your life you are faced with choices. The vast majority are pretty minor. When to get out of bed; what, where, and when to eat; what to wear; who to talk to; and so on. Small choices without which you would likely do nothing but turn into an unkempt lump barely recognizable as a human being. Frequently, when it comes
In the battle of acting with kindness and empathy versus hostility and ridicule – choosing a side matters. Every single day you face new choices and decisions. In these uncertain times, when tomorrow is more unknown than ever before, the line between self-care and selfishness is particularly blurry. We are in the middle of a pandemic. On top of that, we are seeing necessary social upheaval in the face of longtime systemic racism. Want more? There are truly bizarre politics
Taking responsibility and being accountable for your thoughts, feelings, and actions matters in all you do. Modern society hates to be accountable. But damn, do they love to blame. President Babygate blames everyone for all of his shortcomings and inadequacies. Nothing is ever his responsibility, his doing, his fault – unless it makes him look good to his base. From the top down it’s all about the “other” and placing blame while never being accountable or responsible. It’s easy for
Since the present is the only time that is truly real, now is the time to walk my path. But not without certain considerations. It feels like the world is going mad. There is a pandemic that has not disappeared, despite other stuff happening. The protests against injustice and police brutality are a valid reaction to the number of black people being killed over nothing – especially when white people never face the same threats for equal or greater crimes.
How can you recognize the state of your way and what can you do about it? There is no avoiding present circumstances. The world is in the midst of turmoil and change like nobody has ever encountered before. Between COVID-19, ludicrous politics, greed on levels never before imagined, and countless other negatives I could point out here – everything is uncertain. Not just a few things. EVERYTHING. Currently, life IS uncertainty. With a few exceptions, people are finding themselves coping
Sometimes it’s in your best interest not to speak, but just to observe. There is a particular topic I have been working with for many years now. I’ve had a great deal of time, practice, and experience, and I think I have developed some knowledge along the way. I know I am not the only one with knowledge and experience on this topic. However, because of the length of time I have been working with this, my age, and some
Understanding the pitfalls of attachment is a challenge – but will help you better relate to change. The first step is to understand what attachment is. According to Dictionary.com, attachment is: noun an act of attaching or the state of being attached. a feeling that binds one to a person, thing, cause, ideal, or the like; devotion; regard: a fond attachment to his cousin; a profound attachment to the cause of peace.
