Welcome to perhaps the scariest day in internet history: The day when I, a humble lyricist and mystic can make my private thoughts and philosophical inquiries/commentaries known to the world at large. "WWW" might as well stand for "Wild Wild West" from now on cuz its going down, and their ain't no laws, pretension or concern for political correctness governing this kid's heart and mind. Nothing stopping me from living the life I have chosen, one of adventure, love, dreaming, and the truest pursuit one can endeavor upon: that of awakening to the mystical reality of Tao. My personal chronicles of returning to the "un-carved block" the unadulterated, raw, logic defying, mystical reality of nature, and the music that it has inspired in me, and through me ;) A music of heart, a music of mind, a music of livelihood and living, a music that sings to destroy fear, the music of a brave man who is working tirelessly to become fearless!

Anyway That's the voice over for the trailer to a movie about this guy I know.....It just so happens that guy is me! By day Josh Sadek, by night....Josh Sadek.... in the street.....ehhh, also Josh Sadek, but other times when freestyling, or recording music I go by Skitzopoetic, a name given to me in a freestyling session by a friend who thought my delivery was schitzofrenic but poetic. The name represents a person I once was, a very confused teenager trying to piece together some semblance of sanity in a world that is just so damn confusing at times. But out of the ashes that was that person rose a more balanced, aware, and fearless individual who seeks to milk every drop of sweet sweet beauty out of life that he can possibly manage, as he sucks on his pineal gland like a newborn infant in meditation to wake up and smell the fragrant scent of life.
I was the biggest obstacle in living my life for so many years, and Skitzopoetic is a name i go by that reminds me that life is warfare! However I'm not fighting to win by overcoming others violently or otherwise. I'm fighting for peace, and that starts with me, The greater Jihad as they say in Islam. Perhaps that may sound selfish, however how can you offer to others what you have not even given yourself?

This blog is my first attempt to create a space where i can discuss ideas not only regarding writing my music, experiences meditating, but also the world! What a world we live in, and what a time to live in it. So beautiful, so exciting, as we sit on the brink of great changes. Change, as always, is something that people fear, however it is inescapable. We are so worried about protecting what we have, we often mislead ourselves into thinking that we will loose. So many people worrying about the end of the world these days. Its sad to think that we're already talking about the end of the world, when most people, including myself, have not even begun to live yet! I'm almost 25 and only in the last month have i really realized that I haven't even begun to live my life, in a real sense, not just in age but in actually living my life. Then one may look to the world around them and see how things have fallen apart in many ways, and maybe you fear that things are at the point of breaking. Yet that's the exciting part cuz that's when room opens up for growth! And it is the youth that have the most to be excited about. For so long people have made decisions as if we didn't count, or didn't matter, as if no one had to deal with the mess that is the international world these days. We've lived so long under the laws and ideas of structures that we had no say in and now I feel the changes of the world are prime for a rebirth of true romance, of true freedom and liberty, in the real sense. Having a vote doesn't mean you are free if your everyday life is caged in fear and confusion. If that is the case then you are trapped! The world we live in is not conducive to offering one a way out of that existential state either, however thankfully, we all have inside us the Power to find happiness in our lives, peace in ourselves, and that my friends is a wealth that cannot be robbed. No one can take the joy in your heart, or the vastness of your mind. A man who has found those things could live his entire life inside a cell, and still be the freest of all that walk the earth.

So this cite is about dreaming, enlightenment, Inspiration, adventure, observation, focused-ness, awareness, hard work, changing the world, hip hop, writing poetry, and making the most of what you have, and most importantly Love. Love is truly so sweet, and I would fight any battle to give it to myself or a friend. And one can only love with true efficiency through enlightenment, which comes through the realization of Tao! Love is what lead me to that pursuit, and it is my greatest tool for continuing the adventure!

So if you find yourself reading my blog, know that you are loved, and that there are those amongst us who are still venturing forth to Live with all the excitement of a newborn child and spread that through our beautiful world to make real changes as we unlock our true potentials.

Are You?
