Rough manuscript although I veer a little;)
To accept this gift of life to the fullest and to have an undying appreciation of the vessel you were given to enjoy it.
I’m saying love your body. Not just with supplements and exercise, but also how you let it feel. What thoughts you let in. What vibe you ride. I’ve tested it, and it’s %100 true, that you can control the thoughts you think, despite the surrounding world.
Sure it can be challenging. But you can morph mental challenges into a mental gym that forms mental blessings.
The road to heaven is heaven, because when that’s all you look for, that’s all you see.
Once in awhile you’ll notice contorted voices the folks who don’t realize they have a choice in every moment.
Tears are beautiful, tears are a release.
You must feel your emotions, but not dwell.
Let your lens to the world be purified through the windows of your soul. Crying is to release a bloating of good or bad energy.
A heavenly state is one that allows you to feel as good as you desire without any stipulations or stimulations.
Let go of clenching and buckling into fear wheels spinning endlessly down an unpleasant road.
There is as much evidence for the good as there is for the bad.
Just because something is real and intense and terrible, doesn’t mean you have to pay attention to it.
There’s simultaneously something beautiful, easy going, and joyous. Quite certainly feeling bad is a virus, it feels good neurologically and so we are addicted to it if we give into it enough.
Willfully feeling good is allowed. If someone shames you because of it, they have a mind virus. Somewhere along the line a belief attached to a strong emotion, and so now when you go against what they feel is genuinely possible for themselves; it triggers an automatic and usually negative response.
But they can’t find sustenance in you. Your mind is diamond coated when you realize you don’t have to let them make your feel bad. They could call you a psycho, “you have no remorse!”
But that’s not it if you didn’t do anything. They’ll say “you are passive”, and so you’re part of the problem. “Letting it happen!”
No..
If everyone choose to stop rolling down these hellish, mental conveyor belts. They could start pedaling in the way of heaven and like awaking from a bad dream instantly notice that even the road to heaven is heaven.
Once you consciously start choosing good thoughts over bad ones, you cannot consciously stop. You may think it’s conscious, but it’s like stepping off the path as an alcoholic reasons one more drink would be fine. Which categorizes negativity as an addictive state. It lacks presence to it’s real implications on your self respect and surrounding world.
When the jaded, un-jade. They become righteously crystalline.
...In knowing both sides of this coin;
Why would you ever choose a bad feeling?
...That’s rhetorical to this person.
Who’s purified from the needless tangles of shame and doubt.
I’m not a preacher. I’m a writer and a reporter; a seeker and a truth teller.
And things of this nature can be infinitely built up or torn down.
But that only goes to prove conversely the road to Hell, is Hell. Not one that’s taken, but floated down like a limp noodle with a mask on.
And the path to Heaven, is Heaven!

I met Gregory Hyde also at Potbellys sandwhich shop as a musician back when I was attending College of Dupage. He was a full time musician when I met him at 20 years of age. I interviewed Greg in a career development exercise way back when and we've been in touch ever since. Greg is an incredibly well rounded musician, producer, and business man. It was a pleasure having him on the podcast!
