BUT THIS IS JUST INSANE!

.......SURFING THE POWER OF MENTAL STRENGTH THROUGH ENLIGHTENMENT AND SPIRITUAL ENERGY

.
.
.

ITS PRETTY AMAZING SOMETIMES,
 WHEN WE FIND OURSELVES QUESTIONING AND STRESSING
 OVER THE PERILS OF LIFE, 
HOW WE LET IT EFFECT US NEGATIVELY,
 AND HOW WE TRY TO CONTROL TOO MUCH OF IT.

IVE RECENTLY RE-DISCOVERED THE POWER OF JUST 
LETTING GO, AND HOW IT FREE'S YOUR MIND AND SPIRIT.

THROUGH FORMS OF PRAYER, MEDITATION, QI GONG, 
FALUN DAFA, AND OF COURSE TAI CHI I HAVE OPENED UP NEW 
AVENUES OF MY BEING, AND DISCOVERED WHAT THE MIND
 IS ACTUALLY CAPABLE OF OVERCOMING.

SOMETIMES ITS EASY TO LET OUR EGO
 GET IN THE WAY OF OUR LIVES AND OUR DREAMS
AND EVEN OUR DAILY FUNCTIONS...

 FOR ME WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I FEEL AS IF
IM LOSING CONTROL, SO I TRY TO CONTROL IT MORE,
WHICH MAKES EVERYTHING WORSE.
(WITH EXCEPTION TO WHAT I AM INTENDED TO CONTROL)

 TO ME, THAT IS WHAT CREATES INNER TENSION, 
INSECURITIES, AND THE NEED TO NUMB OR PACIFY 
 WITH DEFENSIVE THOUGHTS AND ACTIONS OF 
THE MIND THAT ARE CLEARLY NOT POSITIVE.

FREEDOM OF THE MIND, AND A CLEAR MENTAL STATE
IS MORE POWERFUL THAN ANY PHYSICAL ABILITY.
 MORE EMPOWERING THAN ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD, 
AND THE PUREST FORM OF HAPPINESS.

IT HAS CHANGED THE WAY I VIEW SURFING AND WHAT IT MEANS TO ME.
WHETHER IT HAS IMPROVED MY SURFING, I DONT KNOW.
BUT I DO KNOW THAT I ACTUALLY ENJOY IT ALOT MORE!

I BELIEVE EVERYONE DESERVES TO FIND THERE OWN FORM OF 
FREEDOM FROM SOCIETY AND PRESSURES OF
OUR OWN INNER EGO.

.
.
.


SO TO THIS I GIVE THANKS TO ALL THE HIGHER FORMS OF BEING,
WHETHER IT BE SPIRITUAL, ALIGNMENT OF HUMAN ENERGIES,
 THE POWER OF THE UNIVERSE, OR ALL OF THE ABOVE.
