I'm 20 from Melbourne. This blog is inspired by the great leaders of the past, present and future who stood against injustice and succeeded. All I wish to do if for you to see my vision, for a better future for not only our generation but also
for future generations to come.

HiiiPower is a concept from Kendrick Lamar which is simply all about standing above all the negativity that's happening in the world today and challenging everything that everybody has told us to believe in from the day we were born.

Simply, you become independent from the "system" and society. You essentially free yourself from the chains that we are mentally enslaved in. In order to succeed today, in order for a better tomorrow, we must all come together and learn from one another. We must question everything that plagues our society in a negative way, find solutions and together make a change. But we first be the change ourselves before we help change others and than slowly we can help change the world.

"If you do not stand for something, you will fall for anything." —Malcom X

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, concerned citizens can change world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has." —Margaret Mead

Journey of a Lost Soul

A life of confusion where finding yourself is like being stuck in the desert with no water and you're hoping that maybe sooner rather than later, you would find your oasis but to your dismay it is only a mirage.

The life you so wish to figure out has not only gone from finding yourself from within but finding your path to enlightenment in the real world. A world that was full of contradictions, ridiculous expectations and standards that people are made to believe in. But not me, I had set myself a task to find my own unique path. One that did not rely on the opinions of others or one that followed others. It was a journey for me to find the inner me.

But I didn't understand what society wanted from me. They wanted to ostracise somebody for following their own divine path. A society of nobodies wanting to keep you from being somebody. Like it was cool to be nobody, doing what nobodies do. But how could you stop the whispers from those who didn't know any better? Would it be wrong to doubt if you could do better? Or would you prove to the world that you could do it. That you had what it takes to keep your dreams alive.

These were the questions I would ask myself. Repeatedly. Daily. Like some kind of new
cult ritual.

See, what I found was a little bit of dreams were in my nightmares and a little bit of nightmares in my dreams. A little laughter in the screams and a little bit of screams in a little laughter. A little bit of love in a heart full of hate and a little heartbreak in a heart full of love. A little bit of you in a tiny bit of me and a little tiny bit I could find in you. A little bit of us in a little child and a little child you could find in us. A little bit of a failure in success and a little bit of success in our failure. Welcome to a life of contradictions.

You could be anywhere in the world trying to find yourself and you would find that sadness in the happiness and a little bit of tears in the corner of the eyes as they smiled. That was the journey we so destined ourselves to take. But could we complete it without the death of one another is still yet to be seen. A journey between you and me.

One that lead me across the world to find that the lost soul still had some travelling to do. That finding yourself wasn't as easy as seeing what life was like in Paris or what family you could find in Serbia. What history could be found in Germany, Berlin or Hungary. Thats just history. Everyone has a story that isn't yet over and still needs to be completed to see the end product.

We are all at our own point of development and discovery. We are evolving. We are changing and adapting to a new world. No day is the same as the last, yet we sometimes discover something old, new or rediscover what we once knew. We lose our ways trying to adapt to a crazy world because we lose who we truly are through the impact others have on us. But will we find ourselves again or will we be lost. Lost forever? Only God knows.

A journey to finding me right here lost in the eyes of the world but not lost in the hearts that truly mattered.  In which that would be mine.  One that lead me to know if I had to set quest to find the real me. The mountain had beckoned me to begin. Only I would know what i'd find when I eventually make it to the top.

The spiritual me.





Let the story continue..
