I was born November 1961 in a small town in New Mexico called Silver
City. I was moved at age five to California where my father was seeking new
employment. This was do to the
media distortions of the California gold rush and the good life. Of course
that was a grand elusion. The pay was better but the cost of living was much higher.
We found the act of
being Californian a difficult one to play. I have come to find most people to be living
on the surface of reality in order to support a automatonic image. By age ten I
had already achieved becoming a total sociological outcast just by being myself.
Little did I realize at the time, that being an outcast would play to my advantage.
This is because of the incredible insight and observations made possible by non-
conformity. By age sixteen my insights became further broadened through my
introduction into the shamanic world of Entheogens. As time passed I became even
more independent towards observing all creation from both outer and inner perspectives.
I found myself obsessed with learning all I could about the small and the big
picture. However the more knowledge I obtained and spoke of concerning the big
picture, the more of an outcast I became. I eventually discovered that most people
are living on the surface of life. I feel it is this way because humans have extreme
difficulty seeing beyond the grandeur of their worlds. Their worlds seem to be
based on the comforts of their dreams. Seeing only what comforts them. The
question comes to mind, is the human race living a elusion. Could this be the
reason that we are unconsciously destroying our selves and the future of the earth.
The truths suppressed deep within our existence are not for those who desire
the comfortable and passive life styles. The truth can be unwilling and harsh to
the casual observer. In these regions no human domains can comfort you, not even
religion. All though being an outcast of the norm may separate me from the many
pleasures of the ignorant, the truth is what I seek and live for.
