World Peace Project

World peace means everything to me.  It is my platform for the rest of my life, and, my life’s mission and the work that I intend to fulfill before my death, is to serve the people of earth in my crusade for world peace. For me, world peace is the most important thing that anyone can attain to have in this life.  I cannot think of any role that is more significant than that of a world peace activist.  

People like the Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela, John Lennon, Dr Martin Luther King Jr, and so forth, have inspired a revolution of peacemakers, leading by example, the way to peace.  Regardless of the ways of hate and war that stood in their ways, they believed that the only way to conquer such things was through love. In my dreams, I see a world of rainbow people, who see themselves as children of the light, and as the light shines through them, becoming prismatic in the radiance of each colour that they have beholded through their personal and individual heritage as an evolution of the one true unit.

I want to be able to openly discuss and bring to the forefront the issues that drive wedges between us as brothers and sisters of planet earth.  These differences in race and creed, culture, historical value, idealism, language, faith and religious doctrine, social status, and political indifference, all come from the same source.  We need to recognize that beyond our differences as an estranged diversity of distant familiarity, what we are is a generation of children that have evolved to reflect the journey of our forefathers, who in all truth, were brothers of the same seed.

We need to see our differences as particular and distinctly relative reflections of the legacy that drove our forefathers to express themselves as individuals and declare an independence from the unit of the core humanity.  Each of us come to represent that which we were taught.  Our evolution is a finite declaration of where we migrated to, what we are, how we lived, what we believed in, what was important to us… we became more of what was valued and less of what was left behind… and to each his own, we became different. 

I think that world peace will come when we first in our hearts then by our minds and of our actions, begin to perceive ourselves in relationship with one another differently.  But first, I think that it is more important to perceive ourselves differently.  My foundation for the school of thought toward world peace, is not simply to tolerate one another and to pledge a life a love an non violence, but to change the perspective of our reality to see this… A World of Windows.

How I intend to actively promote world peace is simply to speak out about it.  I believe that when people are more informed about certain aspects of a united global community, they will have the option to choose for themselves a more peaceful way of living.  I am not hoping to tell people how to think, rather than to simply share with them my personal perspectives.  New ways of seeing opens minds.  Be inspired by the light of the rainbow to believe in this one love. 

The music moved me.  First to my feet, then to my fleet.  A sort of freedom was this remarkable generation of energy.  I fell in love with the confirmation of my own present sovereignty.  Bob Marley, Lenny Kravitz, Jimi Hendrix, all spoke to me at once.  Guitar Heroes; legends of the eternal premise of a promissory notation linked to my heart.  Keys to the rhythmic blues like hues that intensely infuse that purple haze, perhaps, beyond the surreal infatuation of some remarkable bliss that heightens the sensitive reaction to this monumental sound called rocket, it was the propeller that drove my machine to the realization that, this is it.

If you told me that I couldn't, I wouldn't believe you, because the mere fact that I accept your ill notions could hinder me in the most absolute way.  Your doubt and fear kills the dream of hope that all things are possible.  I would disregard your empty words and overrule them with my faithful heart, always seeking for the deeper gratitude of life that reinforces the reciprocated value of my mind; thus, I would dare to defy you along with all odds necessary in order to declare the dignified right to follow my heart to the truth that lives to conquer.  I would tell you this; that, if it lives inside of me it is only for the purpose that I should discover a way to free it, emancipating the possibility in the positive radiance of light. Thus the challenge of life is beyond survival, in the order that we should create new ways to masterfully express the path to illumination.  My innovation has led me to this resourceful state of mind where it becomes certainly an aid to declare you impotent against me.  In my quest, I see beyond your shadows of over-saturated jargon, into the place that is clearly free to become everything that is possible.

It is true, that I spent a lifetime on a voyage toward the attainment of self discovery, for which I have no credits to show for all of my troubles.  A life of time wasted, many would assume, as I trod the path that would lead me to finally become that by which I can be satisfied in and of this framework called self.  Yet, in the material world, fabricated by the mere illusion of gain toward triumph, I have gained nothing, but a loss of time.  Although this may be a subjective truth, my reality is that by which time has stood still, for in every moment that has come to be, it has been ordered by time itself, and nothing is revealed before its appointed time.  Indeed, my work has been done and my journey fulfilled, that I should prepare my self for the day by which I will be called upon.  I am ready now, and if that says nothing, then there is nothing more to be said.

The city is truly a beauty, filled with life and light and energy.  Constant movement and truly there is a magic that exists in such a metropolitan, for it possess such power that it becomes a conductor of emerging energy and demands that it be recognized as the center of the world.  Even in such a place, I find peace, as I continue to seek stillness and silence in full awareness of the voice within.  Yet, perhaps I quest a greater truth that this material world has diluted in all of its static electricity, for here, you cannot even see the stars at night.  Perhaps my heart lives to go on and not to settle for the longing to dwell in such a place like this, for, my enthusiasm for this surging fusion and curiosity for the possibility of excitement in the fast paced reality has dimmed low, and now, I feel that on this day, I have come only for the mere moment that allows me to recognize the calling toward the succession of a greater duty.  What lives on within me is the desire to see the connective alignment of the stars at night.  Clarity, beyond this artificial noise called blinding light, is the mission of my sovereign element.

In the quest to conquer myself, to become the best version of my own inspired truth, how do I look beyond my own imperfection.  Flawed, I dwell within this humanity and the nature of all things physical.  I am seeking balance in all things, hoping to find peace on the middle path, in a resolution to accept all things and to learn through the consequential reality that although 'that which sustains me destroys me', the natural order of the universe reigns with perfect balance.  In this lifetime, I have learned to endure the trials and tribulations of lessons learned through experiences earned.  Some day, in my old age, hair grey of streaking white adorning like a platinum crown of stars upon my head, I will wear proudly the wisdom learned and earned through withstanding the test of time.  It is then and only then that I will fully understand that my imperfection is that which has indeed most contributed to my perfection.  In these times to come, I shall be a grand teacher of distinguished eloquence, Illumined, and with vivid stories to tell of how I overcame all obstacles in the quest to prove only to myself that, in faith, dreams do come true.  I'll never stop believing in the perfection that lives beneath my skin, that is the root of all expressions of my flesh, for it is my core and the ultimate beauty of any universal element known to this constant creation of my own evolution.  I'll never stop challenging myself to be greater tomorrow than I was yesterday, and, for each moment that I live, in this today, and the days to come, I will remember that, the only perfection that I shall ever attain is of the spirit, and of my heart, for all else passes with time, as the physical nature of the beautiful beast is a passing whirl.  I let go of the essence of such things in remembrance of that which will always stand the test of time.

Sound the music, for my ears are listening out for the call of that which will move me.  I am here to hear the trumpets roar, yet, who knows the truth-filled sound of my own beating drum, the call of my heart, the timeless rhythm of my pulse that leads me to it, crying out in harmonic sync to the ultimate universe, beyond this galaxy, beyond this world, it is the encompass of all creation in the sphere to this relative relevance that I am.

Now I sit on the forefront of the journey that lies ahead.  What awaits is simply unknown, except that it is for me to claim by the works of my hand.  How will I proceed on to this occasion.  I have not the answers, only the song of my heart that leads me to dance; to take this chance.  Where do I go from here, and how will i get there.  Details and arrangement, I have so much to do, in sorting out and making sense of it all. I begin at square one, one foot before the other, I march on.

Times like these that I am ever so humbled by my humanity.  I feel exhausted; weakened by a tired mind, unable to focus on the multiple tasks allocated for me.  Set out before me, the numbers on my to-do list are truly of grand importance, and yet, as I begin my work, even in reference to the works that I have done as preparatory for this, it is ever more difficult.  I think, how will I find the means to express this message that I now must.  Surely, I understand the wall of writers block.  I come face to face with only the desire to proceed, accompanied by the mass music that dreams with me.  My mission is clear, instructions to tell them echo in my consciousness.  Frustration, my dilemma.

The long journey has exhausted me.  Its not so terrible to be overwhelmed as I am; I suppose it can be compared to the butterflies of stage fright... we experience these things so that we can realize its importance, and also, that we can realize our own inner strength as we find the will to conclusively overcome such minor obstacles in order to attain the greater something.  I believe that today marks the beginning of an era, but there is no significant change, except for the sum of many small ones.  I try to reflect and think back on my past and the elements that contributed to my current state of mind, and the journey that led me to this point, and all of the significances that have contributed to my evolution.  It takes time to sort so many things out.  Overwhelming, surely, it seems like a mountain of rummage to sort through, and a world of chaos is mine to make sense of... or, such is the illusion, for, my world is certainly clear and refined, and I am undisturbed by the minor nuances of the day.  I listen to the music, and cling to the rock, for it is my foundation.

My first message is one of gratitude.  I want to say thank you to all of those and all of you who have been the supportive village contributing to everything that I am today, and everything that I will become tomorrow.  I am more blessed than I know, because I have had the love of the kind hearted people of this world.  It surely does take a village.  It takes a community to work together toward the common goal and the common objective.  It takes a people and a nation to rise together and to uplift the common value.  Strength in numbers; the whole world, and the very same world that I once found threatening as I refused to come out of my shell, I see today, has been my greatest gift.  People are so beautiful and complex and unique and highly valued.. and regardless of how fueding the course of ones duality is, at the end of the day, it all comes together as one.    Thank you, for reminding me, that duality is who we are... this is what makes the universe able to sustain its own truth of compelling energy; this is what makes music and madness, magic and rainbows live on forever.

Why me?  I am just a normal girl, average and regular.  There is nothing so special about me.  I'm not the most beautiful.  The world is filled with ones who can do this work.  Yet, I know that it is more than just beauty in the eye of the beholder.  It is because this is the work that I was born to do, and the legacy that I was born to fulfill, somehow, to be the face, and to represent something that only the image knows to tell.  Words cannot tell the story the way the images can.  Images are the forcefield of dreams, and they live on in our hearts and souls forever.  Words, so empty and chaotic and confusing, are there only in attempt to explain such things.  Mass communication, how do we share images of a message most effectively.  I pray only for the strength to see this revelation of truth fulfilled.  For, here, my life's work begins, and I hesitate not.  I'll be the best that I can be, and, what more can I know to be, consquentially.  I am who I am.

Life continues to be a constant challenge.  We create our lifestyles as we create our personalities and our own images; and in this way we become the creatures of creation who dictate our own habits.  We become painters of the future by the choices that we make today.  I remember this now as I head toward the future.  Old habits are just as difficult to eliminate as new habits are to create.  Even more so, practice makes perfect.  I remember one saying in particular, that we ought to make the good better best, and to never let it rest, until the good is better and the better is best.  My life is a sequence of good habits waiting to be formed.  Each day, I have to try to be a better version of who I was yesterday, for this is the only way to become the best version of who I will be tomorrow.  It is like training for a race; training for life and the race toward the future.  I look forward to the unveiling of my good future, and today my heart is opened wide to accept its good graces.

I live to dance.  Should there be any other cause or reason for my existence I am fully unaware of it, because the only thing that has moved me to life, that has inspired me to live, is the music that moves me.  It speaks to me, and I understand its every word.  Beyond reason, it is a certain insanity in the simplicity of being able to know the music as the gift of every note comes to me as its vivid translator.  For this purpose, my body moves in the complement synchronic order that is a certain spellbinding momentum that my mind cannot even see to explain.  It is more than a feeling, it is a state of mind by which the music becomes me, and my body tells the story of its sounding rhythm, for the wavelengths move through me, and I become the radio transmission at its own frequency.  I give myself to the dance and to the music, faithfully I submit everything that I am and never doubt nor question its love for me.  The music tells me all of its secrets, and they live through the darkness of my dwelling; this sacred flesh becomes the canvas as portrait for the painting muse.  I know no other way, for it is the only thing to inspire me enough, the music.  I see the images in my waking dreams as the music sings its song, and I pour out my heart in dance, as I attempt to share with you this vision of some truth that only the expressions of my form know to tell.  I dance because there are no words.  I dance to give all my secrets a way.

Be True To Self

Alek Wek is the most beautiful woman. There is something about the way her richly toned complexion, so pure and undisturbed, contrasts with the blank statement of a white garment. She stands apart from what is considered normal by the popular opinion of what beautiful is. Surely, for me, she is the absolute and most beautiful. 

The homogeneous and uniformed composition, not only of her magnetic dark skin, but of her sleek lines, although mildly curved, are noted for renowned definition and ultimate character. There is no question of her substance. She is her own premise and owns an identity that is undeniable. Bold and captivating. Yet, such an alien to the world of beauty in which she resides, there is no doubt or question as to what makes her special, as she stands out immaculately. Although it is difficult to identify with or relate to such an acute and accurate, undiluted source of reputable beauty, she defies normality and has become the exception to every rule. She demands to be respected as she takes a stand, although alone, to represent the prize of a people.

Alek Wek has broken the mould, and is accepted for her alien nature. She seen as an enigma, enticingly so, and redefines everything that was once seen as desirable for a woman. Even the soft silhouette of her facial gestures are the ideal form of feminine beauty. The elements of her physical nature, the hypnotism of her long and lithe frame and all of its composites, conclusively tell the story of her compelling heritage. With her she carries a dynamic pride for the journey of a people, deeply engraved in the history of her flesh and bone. She is a vision of strength, yet, charmingly, of her tranquil allure and innocent eyes, there is a softness about her that is simply riveting. 

Ultimately, it is in her irresistible smile that I feel most inspired by. Of it, her face glows, and in her presence, the spaces of time gleams with the good grace of her potent and prized beauty. Alek Wek is, for me, the epitome of darkness; a relic of feminine ideal beauty. The Smile Of Alek Wek Is A Light In the Darkness; The most beautiful vision that eyes can see.

It is not just about the water; it is in the air and the sun that grazes the sea, that is the body of water so filled with life by giving energy as we seek to be fulfilled by the mysterious discoveries of the great abyss.  these are the people who defy the depths of all odds against them, by the trail and trials essential to overcoming all sequences of fear and doubt.  Courageously, submerging the tranquility of their daring esteem, unto the forbidden realm of the breathless.

Here I am, the novice seeking knowledge of this world; wishing and wanting so desperately to become one with it.  Of all the cravings I know, the ocean calls my name the loudest; and I run to it.  The washing tides as they roar as waves by day and night are pouncing and pounding against the rocks.  The wake of the boat, leaving more behind... the energy of water, for this restless sea speaks to me.

The purity of salt.  The life guaranteed by the corals and reefs... although nothing in life is guaranteed.  The wholesome  genuine truth that I exist within, that exists beyond me.

I venture into the world knowing nothing beyond its name.  La Mer - the Mars... for that which nourishes me destroys me.  That which gives me life, has too the power to take it away - to remove it from my grips.  That which I am lured by is the allure of an energy so astounding that I am willing to risk all that I am to be one with it.

The deep sea diver inside of me is the relativity of an eager, mystical revelation.  I come forth now on the forefront of this singular adventurous venture, putting all on the line, holding nothing back.

The truth about how I feel is difficult; the tension of having everything come to be so soon is temporarily overwhelming.  I continue to rise every morning to meet the challenges of my heavy mind - although light hearted, these changes are overbearing, and I feel tired in my mind as I hope for an adjustment to this new way of life that keeps going.

The Mind of Man

“The mind of man is capable of anything because everything is in it – 

all the past as well as all the future.” –Joseph Conrad (Heart of Darkness) 

The Vitruvian Man
By Leonardo da Vinci

It is human nature to question, by virtue of our birth. Humanity gives us the supreme right to dream, to wonder, to imagine the possibilities, to be inspired, and to inspire. We search for something to believe in, and typically find the answers within, as we dig deep in exploration of our own worlds. Of all the religions created by people on the earth, they have one particular aspect in common – they are all inspired by faith. Someone believed in the values that created the emphatic literature known as doctrine, which outlined the various aspects of each system of faith. A thinking people, we as human beings created circumstantial laws and rules which were specific for the individual cultural and social demands of each communal sector. We developed an understanding of what God was based on our understanding of ourselves, the world around us, the world within us, and our connection to one another, and to the universe. 

What was the inspiration for the earliest man who took on the responsibility to decide the system of organized belief and understanding? This evaluation of religion as a social phenomenon is based on the question of human evolution. From the birth of Homo-Erectus to the awakening of Homo-Sapien, man became a thinking breed in the result of the activation of the enhanced mental capacity to consider questions while seeking answers. The world around us is a reflection of the world within us. Through the evolution of the vertebral animal into a religious species, we became a questioning breed with mental capacities activated by the polar propel of the erect central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). To stand up was to gain the ability to take a stand for something by accessing a new perspective and a new way of seeing the world. To be for something or against it is to have the ability to choose. This supreme right given only to human beings for their ability is known as free will and gives the human species dominance over all other species on earth for being that which has fully developed – evolved at its maximum capacity in full and entire expression of God and the universe and all that is life. “God created man in His image, in the divine image He created him. Male and female He created them.” (Genesis 1) Because of this level of evolution, the mind has been opened enough to be able to dream, to imagine, to think, and wonder… Inevitably, to conquer… for he that stands upright can now wear a crown planted firmly upon his head and dominate the earth, if he so chooses. Religion is the birth of human superiority over all other breeds.

“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” (Aristotle) In Leonardo Da Vinci’s depiction of The Vitruvian Man, he created a world renowned symbol of the ideal man. The “square of the circle” drawing is based on the correlations of ideal human proportions with geometry described by the ancient Roman architect Vitruvius Book III of his Treatise De Architecture. (Scripts of Stig Dragholm) The drawing symbolizes divine symmetry of the human body and by extension, the universe as a whole. The circle is considered the most perfect shape of all and is the symbol for pure spirit, eternal and unchanging. The square is the symbol for the earth, for all physical manifestations and for our orientation on Earth via the four directions, for seasons, and four elements. The earth is at the centre, surrounded by the circle of spirit, within which all of life is contained. The Vitruvian Man is Leonardo’s depiction of how to find a relationship between spirit and matter, between God and man. Indeed, to become the ideal man is therefore possible; it is to find the beauty of, and ideal balance between, physical and spiritual life, respecting the rules of the universe though purification of man.
 . 

A very new breed, human beings, due to their mental capacity are now able to evolve at very fast and steady rates. “The world is very old and human beings are very young.” (Carl Sagan) This young, questioning breed on the sole voyage of self discovery is now coming to terms with the grandeur of its own origins through the progresses of time and understanding of self legacy. The process of evolution has led the mammalian breed to its prime known as the homo sapien; a process which has taken a very long time. But these humble beginnings of humanity have become great only because of the formation of structural socio cultural political religious identities in relativity to the surrounding world and communal or individual such understanding thereof. 

“Let us make man in our image and our likeness. Let them have dominion.” The supreme being, in the image of God; the Homo Sapien, man, the wise, (latin). “Of all the animals, man has the largest brain in proportion to his size. “ –Aristotle (The Parts of Animals) The hands of animals are adopted to their lifestyles, humans with relatively long and opposable thumbs. The homo-sapien has a high forehead and is a definite omnivore. He is completely bipedal, survives in a global habitiat, and has created stone, metal, chemical, electronic, and nuclear tools. Homo-erectus most notably invented fire. As for natural selection, mothers with hereditary large pelvises were able to bear large brained babies who because of their superior intelligence were able to compete successfully in adulthood. 

Civilization: “The development of human language was a crucial point in the evolution of man; among its highest peaks, as here, were story-telling cultured before the invention of writing.” Even here in the Bahamas, we know of many folk tale stories that the people told as folk lore, even in forms of song and dance to pass on the message of supernatural wonders of the world around them. The big brained homo sapien could now dream, imagine, believe, and share those beliefs of wonder and glorious inspired personal truths with others. The creation of inspired texts were written with the “faith to move mountains”. In the mindset that, if you can believe you can be inspired; if you can be inspired you can believe. Faith inspires because it exists in the realm of the imagination and endless possibilities. Passion uplifts the heart; if you stand for nothing you fall for anything or everything. Thus, indoctrinated texts based on a principle understanding of who God is and how that relates to relevant society in the name of order. This defining system became social and cultural standards, and religion became the identity of a people. 

In contrast to the more popular, well accepted interpretation of the Christian version describing the fall of man found in the book of Genesis, perhaps the story can be taken to describe the battle of consciousness and conscientiousness; the birth of suffering in the awareness of inadequacy or infractions, because when we know better, with opened eyes, and we have the power to choose and to know guilt for making poor choices. Guilt = shame and nakedness. The struggle of man’s duality between their will to serve an indoctrinated system of beliefs and their nature to be one of the animals, merely a beast, to suffer the consequences of knowing better, then failing to follow through – from the rise of man – the inevitable revolution into the homo-sapien through homo-erectus, created the awakened mind, in a certain self awareness and vulnerability in questioning uncertainty. “Mankind is poised midway between the gods and the beasts.” (Plointus)  That which separates man from beast and connects man to god is our ability to rise toward higher consciousness – to be able to rise above all matters through the powers of the self discovered mind. 

The Little Oxford Dictionary defines Religion as “human controlling power in personal God or gods entitled to obedience, system of faith and worship; Social as “society or its organization relations of classes of people living in communities, gregarious; Phenomenon as “observed or apparent object fact or occurrence; remarkable person or thing.” 

What is God is what is ideal to each individual. What we strive for, choose to live for, what we have learned to believe in, what we fight for, what we have accepted as truth. Religion is an indoctrinated system of beliefs. Indoctrination's of an individual experience of spirituality though heightened consciousness, systems of learned understanding though knowledge based on the interpretation of an individual experience, perception or of conceived relevance of God and the order of the universe; scripted moral laws. These doctrines are guidelines for society based on the circumstances of the order of the day it was written and the perspective of the person it was written by, and their intended influence of the people it was intended for. Inspired scriptures, doctrine are orders of words, recorded ideologies. 

To conquer is to gain control of. The heads of household set rules for his family, both wives and children, that they should follow and adhere to. These rules represent community values in rank of importance. To convince everyone that they ought to follow this particular way. Most generations of this will always be the generations of questioning individuals determined to find their own ways, to conquer their own dreams and find their own paths. These ones daringly defy their father’s way by choosing a self made alternative. They become known as the black sheep or rebellious ones who have chosen to break away from the ways of a constituted household.  Inevitably, they establish a new way, and found a new religion, based on their subjective interpretations of what they have already been taught. Teaching new ways to a new generation creates a new order and becomes a varied expression of that which becomes known as old or out-dated. Therefore, religion is meant to change and evolve and grow, according to the needs of the time and the people of that day. 

God is not religion and Religion should not be considered God. Religions and churches and temples are a congregation of people who have shared beliefs and common goals. This union of shared ideologies strengthen family and community. People are able to worship together, to congregate for the purpose of shared beliefs, and celebration of life based on their understanding. Families have built communities based on these systems of shared beliefs that have become the foundation for many societies. Religion has been a way of connecting, worship, and prayer. 

“In good speaking, should not the mind of the speaker know the truth of the matter about which he is speaking?” But what we define as truth is relative to the individual perspective via life’s experiences and ones understanding thereof. Truth is what we choose it to be; what we believe. We create our world around us as we choose our relative realities and accept our various truths in free will by virtue of our humanity. Why the war about whose religion is right? All religions are equal. We must learn to respect differences. Just as all human beings are equal, and should be respected as so, all of us have various factors that are unique about us and determine as characteristics how we contribute to the micro and macro – local and global atmosphere of our shared world. 

Religion, sex, race, sexual preference, ethnicity, personal beliefs, lifestyle choices, cultural identities, historical background – these things are equal parts of society that make us unique. So, just because someone looks or thinks or sees things in a different way than you do does not make them greater or less, just different. Whose way is the right way? Each way is right and correct based on 1) the interpretation of the religious men by whom were inspired to create their indoctrination of texts by which their religion was founded based on what was most important to them in the time and day it was written and first practiced; 2) their understanding of themselves, each other, and the god that they chose to serve, and the world around them and within them; 3) their individual socio-cultural needs and their visions of how to attain these goals; creating order amongst men. Therefore, each religion is just as important as ones history or culture or ethnicity; serves the value of identity and community, forming common bonds through the union of shared beliefs and common goals. Religion is a reflection of who we are, where we come from, and what we believe in.

We choose our own paths toward the future.  .

Define truth by creating it. Allow life to be what it is, and believe in the I Am. Establish boundaries that cannot be broken because they dwell within your heart. Stir up friction and let life live. Welcome death as a beautiful opportunity for reincarnation in the tomorrow of born again. I have turned against them. I have turned from their way. They are out to get me, because, I have unlocked the code, and I am moving on to a place that only ones like I get to travel to. They want to stop me in my tracks. But, it is I who must choose to go. They have no authority to stop me.

I am a school of philosophy, depicting thought and movement as equal tools of communicating. Awareness of ones self, mind, body, soul, All, and understanding the precepts of behavior and the influences which ultimately dictate how we will respond to the environment around us, are most adequately apt our external environment as a reflection of the way we respond to our internal environment. The purpose of life is to gather information, process it, and choose the process of self-evolution based on the perceived understanding of acquired data. It is necessary to continually gain new information, based on new experiences, that life not become stagnant. Life and quality of life depend on the ground basis that everything in life is an expression of what it is and where it comes from. Each individual expression of energy, and its source, dictates only where one will end up, based on that which one came from. Such is fate.

The Model
The role of a model is to project an image and to act as a portrait for the identification of an idealistic prototype concept toward showcasing the vision of an individualistic or collaborative scheme of ideas. Best as a malleable chameleon type, a model’s subjective metamorphosis is important in order to give personal reference to the mediums that are relative to a particular perspective. Hence, a model is to interpret as a blank canvas, the image that the artist wishes for and intends to project in order to display the actual and practical reality of the artist’s conception.

The Artist
The dynamic manifestation of a model as an artist is the empowerment of the trend setting notion that the role of the model continues to evolve with time. No longer need the model wait for the instruction of which image to project. She dictates the infusion of popular trends, styles, ideas, and ideals, and directly affects the decisions that people make, as consumer and lifestyle choices of the young and old alike. She gives the conceived idea of idealism, an image and an identity, that is, although reliable, usually unattainable, and ultimately appealing. She sets the tone and raises the barre, inspiring the rest of the world to take on a particular style of mode. The details of her way of life become the compass that leads, propelling the people into the future.
