Hm. This weekend was excellent. I went out and spent time with my friends Derek and Ben. Had fun. Nothing useful or informative has happened in my life in that time.
I told a friend on Friday that I liked her and would be interested in pursuing something beyond friendship if she were interested. She didn't quite say no. It was more along the lines...

i'd point you towards tantrayana, but it's big on lineage and having a teacher, and i get the impression you're going this alone. you're bet bet is to start pilfering ideologies - check out hinduism, sufism, read some hakim bey (esp. TAZ), and maybe even delve a bit into Thelemic study and maybe more Gnostic texts (although if i recall you already probably know a great deal about gnosticism).
shachia:
heh. Gnosticism is the one thing I know anything about. besides maybe cats. My next journal entry was going to be a long one about silly gnostic crap. Maybe I'll still finish it when I'm actually awake someday.
This is a meaningless journal entry at heart.
Tonight I was thinking about passion while I was out driving. I mean, I'd say I'm passionate about cooking. Or i feel passion towards a woman I'm in love with, or old Passion Plays, or extreme emotion.

i may not know what im talking about..or just be plain full of shit... but my favorite use for the word passion is as such:
"poetry with me is not a PURPOSE, but a PASSION.." -EA Poe
to be passionate does not mean, that to have this thing or whatever is a goal in life...but it is the vehicle and the fuel that burns within you and drives you to and through whatever goals you have set for yourself.
Fuck balance, humans are the only creatures whose nature is not one of balance, otherwise we'd be living in bushes instead of cutting them down for houses.
we ARE the only ceatures on the planet that can truly be passionate about something. but then again, i may just be full of shit.
"never give yourself a reason to not continue...never give yourself and excuse for mediocrity and never, may i say never ever give up."
(actually that me quoting myself from one of my poems"

As for personal nonsense, I am enjoying an entire summer of laziness and vacation time. Thank god for suicidegirls boards I would be one bored monkey.
