God this monster we call food. It has hounded me throughout my entire life. Bad food, bad habits, overeating, sugar, and addiction. So, now I see that my universe reflects the fractal whole of my society. I am not alone in my food habits, we are fat, we make bad choices, we are being fed poison. How do I release my addictions to food? How do I let go of my judgement on myself and others for my and their food choices? How do I erase the slate?
I have done the research I know what I should be eating and what I should not be eating. I have experimented on my own body by going to a Raw Vegan diet for 6 weeks. This diet worked for me 100%, I lost weight and felt great. Yet, I have self-sabotaged that and continue to struggle to loose weight and change habits and addictions. The time for excuses needs to end for myself and everyone else.
(not sure where I am going with this post, will come back to it later.)

Post 3: Chaotic Stasis
I am currently experiencing a stasis in my life. I am fairly certain it is self-inflicted. I continue to make unhealthy decisions, simply because I fear to succeed at my goals. I have even stopped doing any sort of spiritual practice whatsoever. Everyday I wake up and tell myself,"Hey Self we should do our breathing meditation." In reply I say,"Hey Self, great idea, right after I get done here on the net and some other little things I'll get right to that...."
This particular situation has the feeling of fear niggling behind it. Fear of truly dedicating myself to something. Finally ending the search for spiritual fulfillment. If I just dedicated myself to one particular practice and philosophy everything I have lived my life for will be over, the quest might succeed. The fear is no longer over failure it is a fear of success. I have invested so much of myself in this quest for enlightenment, for spiritual fulfillment, for self-actualization. I do not know who I am without this quest, I want to keep digging for the grail even though I found it long ago.
If any of you have seen the movie "Memento" you might understand, my quest is the main character's John G. He has found and taken his vengeance on John G over and over yet he continues, choosing to delude himself that John G is still out there. Well there is no out there, no more endless quests seeking books and gurus and techniques. I have all the skills I need, all the information, it is all here. All that is left is to take the plunge to surmount my fear and laziness.
I do not know where my life is going, where the wind will blow. All I can do is be, and be prepared. To wait in ecstasy for the next shift in direction. While being who I am in each moment, each breath, and every heart beat. To truly dedicate myself to my own life with no fear, with no need to fulfill any viral programming in my mind.
If the conspiracies are true they will come out in the open at some point, the same with 2012 stuff it all has a point in time which they can be checked to see if any of it was true at all. I for one will not loose myself to the fear of all the stories of the Darkness nor will I get lost in the complacency of waiting for the universe to "fix" things in the next two years. I participate in this vile and evil system everyday I am not free of blame. I am not higher or better than anyone else. The truth is I've led an incredibly privileged life, its time for me to get off my ass.
