Universal Life Energy

Recently, I have been bartering guitar lessons for Reiki Lessons with Reiki Master Rolando Rodreguez. I have noticed significant improvements in my life since he started showing me the ways of Universal Life Energy.

The results have been stunning. I have notices a large increase of overall energy as well as health. I survived living with three roommates who all had the flu for over a week without one shred of illness. I have noted major improvements in my sensitivity toward energy, and a closer connection with the world. It restored my senses that had been abandoned a long time ago in a dark chapter of my past...

A few years ago, I followed my hearts intuition and it left me alone with a broken heart. I began to not listen to my heart after that, and this was the worst thing I could have done.

My whole life I had answers to questions that many wondered. I could feel truth oozing out of people. I had the ability to know what the future holds and make an informed decision of which road I wish to walk.. My intuition was very strong for a man, and I just kept it as my little secret. There are many major events that I knew were coming, but I kept them to myself, the people I did tell, didn't believe me anyway, until these event occurred.

But after I turned my back on my heart, all of this wisdom seemed lost. Almost immediately, it was all gone. Life became incredibly uncertain, and my little secret had evaporated.

After a few months, I realized how wrong I was to treat myself this way. I had seen the wonderful opportunities that had presented themselves to me from this negative experience. I finally saw the reason my heart had led me to that dark place and i began to smile.

you can never question the grand scheme of life. I tried and tried to get back my abilities that had munsened me in this place, but they were not nearly as strong as they once were. I felt so foolish for turning my back on myself.

Years of meditation brought be back somewhat but not nearly close to what I had been. my powers had diminished significantly. It seemed there wasn't a damn thing i could do about it.

After two Reiki sessions, I was not only fully restored, I was miles ahead of where I was before. The Reiki had opened me up completely. I know more and see more than ever before. My connection to all is direct and I can feel the energy of each one of my chakras reaching out of my body. I am light and energy.
Tomorrow is my attunement. I will be passed the gift to tap into the Life Force Energy. i will then be able to practice Reiki on others. I am excited and blessed to have found this opportunity. I feel like a completely new person in the best way possible.

I love you all.

peace and love.

Celebrate Life

Every year, month, second, day, hour, minute, or second we get to discover our uniqueness is a blessing. Its easy to forget this when bills are flowing in like canoes down the Niagra Falls and the job economy is more competitive than The Berkley School of Music. This is just more the reason to celebrate life every day of our lives.

A simple smile, kind gesture, and open mind helps settle our world and remind us of the love and respect we have for one another. We need to slow down and not take things so seriously.

A simple act of kindness is an act of love. There is little risk to do nice things, but the reward is always bountiful and worth the investment.

Now is the only moment that exists, and we should seize that moment for everything its got. There are infinite opportunities to love, just take one and see where it takes you.


Goodnight all,

Be good to each other.

Chicago viewed by night

Chicago viewed by night resembles none other than a half completed death star at the fully operational state. Its dangerous, captivating, vibrant and phallic. I enjoy the city the most at night. This city in particular has a very strong energy flowing through it. Late at night, at just about the right time, the whole city seems to pause in a collaborative moment of silence. Peace comes over the city shortly before our sensitive anticipative ears are struck with the howl of a dozen cabs racing down lake shore chasing a train headed to Howard. I can feel this city.


It has been called the hour of meditation, I like to refer to it as the hour of awakening. Some of us rise to the challenge of a new day, others are just ending a night of late night drinking recklessness. At this time I feel the most awareness of my consciousness than any other time of day or night. Some times around this time I am able to be conscious of my astral body and fly to destinations far beyond the gaze of the Hubble telescope.

Shortly, the calm before the storm is over. A low rumble hum of engines, gears, turbines and valves sliced through a skinny cloud stream like the sears tower. The parking race has begun. It starts early and continues like blue line; every couples of minutes for the rest of the day. The silence was gaged and buried, but the city has birthed the morning commute.

Constructing a boat


Time steadily flows like an ice cap melting in the rays of summer. Each individual snowflake melts, loosing its original "one of a kind" structure and becomes a small part of a much larger stream. Working as a whole the water is able to flow effortlessly from the top of the Rockies, across the entire nation, and into the deepest depths of the darkest oceans. As we begin remember the water cycle in grade school, I cannot ignore the perfection of this metaphor when applied to life.

I was very young when I learned to swim. Its not easy to do at first, sometimes kicking, flailing, doggy paddling, and screaming aren't enough to keep you afloat, therefore we result in other means of emerging; life vests, floaty toys, and gripping the side of anything for dear life.

The water has the power to quickly drown us in its rapid swirling white bubbly gut. Water also has the guidance to take us downstream to a completely different element of experience. In order to let water carry us, we must let go and have faith that we will not drown.

Many of us are afraid to let go and be carried. We have no confidence in our swimming abilities although we are completely qualified at the palm paddling arts. For many of us, we prefer to stay dry in the confines of a homemade boat.

Constructing a boat is not as easy as it would seem. The bow and hull of the ship must be steamed and bent to form the curved red rover beetle, on his back shape. The sails must be very large to attract even the slightest whisper of wind. Constructing a boat is serious full time business.

Sailing allows us to reach our destination in much better physical and mental shape that otherwise. Those who never let go, many of which are oblivious in the first place, stagnate in there own pool of consciousness for their whole lives. Those that are aware will sometimes try and pirate your yacht and steer you upstream.

Having a boat puts you in complete control and grants you the ultimate gift; you.

peace and love in the new year.
