From the very beginning, I was fascinated by human beings. By their energy. By their power. And… by their deep abysses. As a child, I was awake in a way I can still feel in my bones. I remember the texture of it — sharp, alive, as if every sound and every glance had its own electricity. But even then, I could see something strange. Most of the adults around me weren’t fully there. My mother. My father. The neighbors and most adults. They moved through their days like their lights were half-dimmed, like someone had turned down the volume on life. One day, I told my mother, “When I’m grown up, I’m going to start a religion.” I know exactly what I meant — I wasn’t thinking about altars or hymns — but I knew I wanted to find the secret to living fully and spread it. To wake people up. Because half-assed living… is no way to live. In fact, it’s stupid. Losing the Aliveness Somewhere along the way, I lost mine. It happened quietly, over years. Fear and a lot of worry took root. Different shapes, different reasons, but the same heavy taste. I learned to shut up. Not because anyone forced me — but because I didn’t know how to respond to the world around me. My mother didn’t seem fine. My father was wrapped up in his own orbit. The adults I knew were circling themselves like planets that had forgotten the sun. And I wanted to live fearlessly, to find my mojo, to have fun — but I made it so hard for myself. I was stuck in a destructive loop of thought, trapped in a thinking circle that kept feeding me reasons why I couldn’t be who I wanted to be. I felt small. Like an ant in a colony, just doing my part for a queen I’d never met. I wasn’t creating anything that mattered to me. By the time I finally found my way into a media apprenticeship at 28, I’d already spent years inside that cage. And the bars weren’t made of steel. They were made of thought. The Realization: The funny thing is, when I “found” the Three Principles Understanding, I realized there was nothing to find. They had always been there — the physics of the human experience. We live from the inside out. Not from circumstances. Not from other people. Not from the world. We live in the feeling of our thinking. And feelings… are a feedback mechanism. That’s the part I’d missed most of my life. When I felt bad, I thought the world was wrong. When I felt small, I thought life was against me. But all along, it was my personal thinking creating those feelings — and thoughts are something I could let pass, change, or simply not take seriously. Now, I’m not awake all the time. But I know my way back. And that has changed everything. The good news: Everybody can! 😍
