The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 242

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 242" on Spreaker. April 15, 2021 What’s your wakeup call? Have you experienced one yet? You know that moment that changes everything. The Covid 19 lockdown acted like a wakeup call. On this side of March 12, 2020 maybe not so sure. Even with the vaccine those numbers are headed up. During the morning of January 16th, 2021 I wrote inside the protection of the forest that which I live within. On that morning it was extremely damp from the winter’s storm the day before. The birds were extremely loud. Concert like. The forest was having a wakeup call. Which can easily be compared to the real world of our everyday. Everybody wants to be heard. We just can’t figure out if what’s being shared is wakeup or wake not. We’re human. Always strong with our thoughts but the attempt doesn’t guarantee the missing of the next storm. A darkened sky doesn’t always mean something’s moving through. Spiritually speaking there’s a huge hum in our everyday changes and challenges. Is it carrying your wakeup call? A forest can’t block the weather’s voice. Not so true for the human. We’re masters at blocking out what needs to be fixed. A clicking in the engine of your car is repaired by turning up the radio. When does worry become your fact? Even though it might not be true you’re convinced something’s changed. A wakeup call. On July 21, 2019 I experienced a huge one. A heart attack at the age of 47. Before that moment I was known for telling people, “I want to be in the right place at the right time.” I didn’t realize it meant being at a Doc in the Box getting checked out for possible Strep Throat. The initial wakeup call was the Saturday before. While preparing for my 3rd degree black belt I stopped remembering my forms, I couldn’t catch my breath. It didn’t send out the signal to get checked out. Not until three days later when I felt sharp pains in my throat. It wasn’t Strep. What’s been your wakeup call? How loud does it have to be for you to pay attention? It doesn’t have to be sickness but rather career changing. Or maybe your artist self is trying to be heard. Why are you ignoring the wakeup call? Listen to it before hanging up.

Stream Thinking Show Me Your Hunger

Listen to "Stream Thinking Show Me Your Hunger" on Spreaker. April 13, 2021 Stream thinking. Learning to utilize your personal strength by way of owning your presence of Now. A daily discipline. One page. Ten minutes to throw whatever’s in your head and heart down. You can’t erase or edit. Tapping into that source of energy that’s always present. It’s usually ignored by our addiction to plan. We are convinced that all things attempted must be perfect before we forget it. Today’s mental journey puts a lot of attention on you showing me your hunger. Show me how serious you are about becoming more that what you are. Show me your hunger. Show me the callus on your fingertips caused by endless amounts of scratching on the walls you claim to be blocking you. Show me your best laid out plans. Many can’t. The choice has been to sit here and never get started. What did you do during the Covid 19 lockdown that can be used as a brilliant tool today? If I were a business manager selected to build a brilliant working team that question would be a priority. What did you do during the lockdown? Show me your hunger. Not food. Your hunger. Your drive. Perseverance. Passion. Vision. Broken paths caused by the weight of chance and change. Show me your hunger. No matter how dark midnight comes across, your heart remains enlightened by the willingness to participate. Isn’t that what feeds hunger? Knowing there’s going to be a difference. Utilizing it as a tool by way of keeping free of all things indifferent. Stop just sitting around and standing in a motionless place waiting for life to heal itself. Show me your hunger. To feel the gnawing of your truth. To watch how each time you’re told no, it reignites the fires that can’t be contained. Hunger! You said you’ve got more today and it’s not just a dream. You’re being called. Let me inside to see your hunger.

Batters are retraining what they were taught. Swing Kings from Jared Diamond is out. 11am post https://www.spreaker.com/episode/44164140 The first weekend of April 2021 and one of the years biggest films has made its way into theater. Big as in Godzilla and King Kong. Ryan Jay reviews it. Lots of special effects and action but not worth leaving the house. Watch it on HBO Max. Which is pretty much how he feels about French Exit. A lot of hype but the twist in the middle dulls the fun. What about Olympia the documentary on the life of Miss Dukakis? Game changer this weekend. It's the must see!!! 1pm post https://www.spreaker.com/episode/44166096 Actor Peter Coyote and I have the most one on one personal conversation ever.

No More I Am

Listen to "No More I Am" on Spreaker. April 2, 2021 I am versus I will. I’m going straight to the end of the story. I am versus I will. Where do you find your energy source these days? My eyes are scanning the room like a Cyborg from Battlestar Galactica. Trying to feel the energy from the universe! Or I can bring out my inner poet and admit, “I’m seeking my muse.” I think one of the real reasons why I enjoy sharing conversations with people of fame is because of how they came into being. So many refuse to give themselves the credit. It’s not them! It was something beyond them that provided an opportunity. They moved with the flow of energy provided. I vividly remember my twenties and thirties in the way that I overdosed on dedication, loyalty, determination and passion. The mission was to be seen as well as heard. I tried very hard to be in the right place at the right time. You know, get into people’s faces. I am versus I will. Through daily awareness and being mindful of your present the need to be an “I am” keeps you further away from what “I will.” I refuse to believe the corporate world has changed due to Covid 19. It’s evolved. Have you? But I am! Change that to, “I will.” Amazing amounts of new energy begin to show up on your path. And like most humans walking through these days of uncertain methods of madness, anything that feels new sits on the edge of growth or tossed. But I am! Show me the hands of those who are no longer “I am” but rather once were. Millions of dollars are being forked out on overzealous life coaches and motivational books designed to make your new normal more acceptable. Stop saying, “I am.” The new goal is “I will.”

The Silent Sky

Listen to "The Silent Sky" on Spreaker. April 1, 2021 Very interesting 5am experience. The sky was silent. Jazzie and I walking through the forest. Normally we hear distant cars, see far off lights acting like beacons in homes and are usually accompanied by the hoots of the owl. Not this 5am walk. The sky was silent. An instant flashback of what it sounded like during the Covid 19 lockdown. I stopped several times as if to be checking my hearing. Had I gone deaf? The half lit moon offered direction through the forest but the silence was putting me in a place of wonder. What took place while we were sleeping? I usually don’t hook up with the news until the forest walk is over. It felt odd in a day and age where so many have returned to marching in corporate order. Then one big gust of wind. It quickly disappeared. We were standing in its way. I could feel it racing around me. The sky was silent. Then whoosh… The universe taking a big breath then setting it free.
