Went to my brother’s grad with this beautiful girl next to me! Had the honor to have my girlfriend as my date tonight to my brother’s grad. Everyone has people around them that help keep them positive and take stress away. No one, and nothing does that more for me than her. Working 80+ hour weeks gets me moody and stressed and not only does she listen to me rant but she always manages to cheer me up. My advice to anyone who is stressed out is get an Andrea in your life, it will definitely change it for the better. Trust me.

Love and Compassion. The two most important things about you. What is compassion? It is not simply a warmth of heart toward the person before you, or a sharp clarity of recognition of their needs and pain, it is also a sustained and practical determination to do whatever is possible and necessary to help alleviate ones suffering. “If all the harms Fears and sufferings in the world Arise from self grasping, What need have I for such a great evil spirit?” And a resolution is born in us to destroy that evil spirit, our greatest enemy. With that evil spirit dead, the cause of all our suffering will be removed, and our true nature, in all it’s spaciousness and dynamic generosity, will shine out. You can have no greater ally in this war against your greatest enemy, your own self grasping and self cherishing, than the practice of compassion. It is compassion, dedicating ourselves to others, taking on their suffering instead of cherishing ourselves, that hand in hand with the wisdom that realizes egolessness destroys most effectively and most completely that ancient attachment to a false self that has been the cause of endless wandering in your own mind. That is why compassion is the source and essence of true enlightenment. We need to make a very clear destination between what is in our ego’s self interest and what is in out ultimate interest. It is from mistaking one for the other that all our suffering comes. What will you do tomorrow to eliminate the suffering in others life’s? In then in turn help eliminate suffering in your own life? Help others and help yourself and learn to be more compassionate. It is not something that can be done immediately. Compassion takes practice and determination. However, the decision to start practicing compassion is the first step to mastering it and truly benefiting yourself, others, and this world as a whole. I

Were humans really meant to die? One of many questions… This may come off as negative at first… But this is a train of thought that came to my head. A common thing for humans to try and figure out, and something often feared is death. How can we avoid dying? Can we live forever? Is there an afterlife? How can we prolong our life? Well I’m gonna propose a simple idea… What if we were never meant to die? What if from the moment we were born we were getting killed? Now what do I mean by that? From the polluted air to the polluted food… We all make unhealthy choices that could otherwise prolong our lives to live well over 100. What if we went further than that? What if I proposed that it was your environment and the people around who affected that the most? Imagine if everyone around you was always positive and encouraging? If there was no fighting and everyone was truly peaceful. What do you think would happen then? I say we test this out. Rethink what you say before you say it. Are your words gonna help or hurt who you’re directing them at? Are you encouraging or putting down someone? Are you treating them how you want to be treated? Sometimes you have to revaluate just what you’re simple life goals are and take the time to ensure you not only helping yourself be happy but others as well. I believe that maybe it is possible to live forever. Maybe our generation may not be able to. But by spreading true positivity and peace, may one day humans will be able to. And even if we may not be able to live forever… I bet we can not only prolong our lives, but truly make them that much more enjoyable.

Will be dropping my little brother’s newest track tonight at Stereo for the Halfway to Holiween Powder Party! He started to make music around a year ago and after dedicating every hour he was awake to perfecting his sound … He now has songs signed on recognizable labels world wide and he’s only 18. I’m excited to play this Gareth Emery remix as it is absolutely a huge banger. If you don’t know my brother Fahjah yet, I promise you that by the end of the year you will.
