Hotel @nyware



Coming home to a place I've never been before. It's Fee-Gee (Fiji) Hiow did I end up in a place like this? Favoritism.

You can't get any further away before you start coming back.Imagine sailing across the blue waters of the South Pacific, passing by idylic islands, teeming with exotic fish and majestic coral reefs--Oh wait I don't have to use my imagination because what you see is what you get. Bula.
                                                                                                                                    OMG I'm a Country Boy

The Law of Diminishing Returns  

You know, addiction isn't the problem - it's the solution-  When all you care about is here, this is a good place to be

It is the theory that the more your experience something, the less effective it becomes. Think of the drug addict that needs more and more drugs, just to achieve the same high.

Fiji has over 300 islands- I have seen about 25 so far this trip. I'm concerned that "the wow factor" no longer applies. Yet if I take an imaginary a ride down Southern California's Carmageddon- Interstate 405, breath in some smog  while stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic. I still want to escape to  MY reality--being in the South Pacific! I love the  Free Parking for all boats, ships and anything that floats.

Hawaii was the experience that answered all my questions about time-it didn't exist. Everything is NOW on a ship, and the only easy day is YESterday. On The Pacific Ocean, I may not have been Mr Right, but I felt ok being Mr Right Now.

When we would dock off  Kona or  in Kauai,  I was in the MOment. It was only in the "Mainland"  where My Aloha Vibe got distracted with Caffeine and the Malls, and I was on default. just another Haole--- the other. not a true person from here.

In the South, they don't care how you do it Up North-in Hawaii, they just don't care- I met "adults" who never wore pants-just shorts, flip flops. Aloha Friday and Naked

Tuesdays-Oorah!

Aloha Time  Lets Things Happen When They're Ready to Happen, and I was ready to happen.

Aloha Time Is Divine Time, and, more than that,  you  "get paid" for who you are---on the Divine Payroll, -an energetic force that has your best interest at heart that you can tap into it any time you want...and things show up when you want them. It's more than liquid, it's a fluid life.

Next I got this gig on LOST

First thing I did was start teaching

In other words, What you focus on gets BIGGER, and Analysis is Paralysis. There is always a Mental time-travel , one of the greatest gifts of the mind. It makes us human, and it makes us special. It is the
clash between the "experiencing self" and the "remembering self". Just saying the word "Hawaii" is like talking about my youth, a time I remember so well because it was a place of "firsts". Novelty has such an impact on us.

I used to call it nostalgia--- the suffering caused by an unappeased yearning to return. On further consideration, I'd like to use what psychologists call, the “reminiscence bump”---that great feeling I

Then I bought this SAAB

have as I get older, where I  remember things more vividly that not only happened in my 20's and 30's but also in my 40's and 50's. Could it be because I am constantly adding to my life narrative, and remembering to remember?

Identity is the internalized life story we tell ourselves. Read More:  The Autobiographical Philosophy. In Fact, we favor recollections and stories, whatever their emotional charge, that reinforce who we think we are at any age. It's kinda weird that I am still becoming the person I am going to be.


Here is how it went in The Garden Island: The Monotony of the Mainland collapsed time; the novelty of Kauai unfolded it. Before all of the above took place. I had a:

I showed up In Hawaii and magical things began to happen.  It all started with the simple decision-to go.  I lived what  Campbell calls, "The Soul's High Adventure" I've been riding  (on) a/the wave ever since. I wrote on 8/27/2007

Being T/here in Hawaii has put me in a unique space ..

Veritus-You shall know it, but first it will piss you off:. Harvard Business School is the West Point of capitalism.The  rest is just Karaoke, cheap imitations.

 Ponzi Diploma Mill

We guys from The 80's  got in early reaped the rewards, spread the buzz that "You need a college degree". As more ppl went, tuition went up, student  loans soared.Pyramid schemes punish  those late to the party. The Bernie Madoff of investing in yourself scandal is a B.A. from a Liberal Arts, Technical, Beauty or Fashion School.

Khao San University in Bangkok-Get a US Degree for $20 Bucks!  I definitely over-paid for my diploma!You give them money.  They give you a degree. Just spell your name on this  piece of paper. They'll print you up a diploma  No tests.No Books .Nobody is turned down.

FADE IN: 

Glacier National Park-Of The Mountains

Marjorie Glacier is one of the most photogenic glaciers in Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska. I had the good fortune to be there today

None of these landscapes are ugly because they are natural and wild! 

I learn about geography by traveling by cruise ship; geology, the day after a  huge event-- They  take place  every day somewhere around the planet--- earthquakes, hurricanes, even glaciers move. 

When I attempt  to pick out anything by itself in Alaska , I find it connected to everything else in the Universe, yet I feel my smallness because of its vastness. The wilderness is therapy: Only by going alone in silence, without baggage and buffets,could I  truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other traveling, including on this ship, is Karaoke traveling-a cheap imitation. But it's still worth doing. I can hear the ice sheet-music of the glacier calving and  the music of the bay  written in ice river lines.

Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean-John MUir
