Organic doughnuts anyone? Part 1

It's Illustrious, hypnotic, and seductive. The number one fantasy in America, above money and sex and Gucci.

Superstars live on it. The government hordes it. Lil Wayne and Young Jeezy pretty much own it.

We all want it, all the time. Walking down the hallway at school, or in the office. At home on the couch. In the shower, in the car, on the dance floor, or in the mall. We're in tune enough to know when someone gives it to us, but when we need it, we'll just take it. We feel superior, hot, fresh, and cool when we have it. A pompous freshman gets a nod from a blonde bombshell senior, and just like that, he's king for a moment.

The enchantment of Power helps us feel vital, energized and attractive. Like a drug, but better. And more addicting.

We each source power & energy in a number of ways and from tons of sources. We've been conditioned since birth to take it from our parents, then our siblings, then our friends, teachers, neighbors and eventually strangers. Basically, we steal it.

Not so fast, you're no Mother Teresa. We've all been this guy. Walking through a checkout line, the checker is slow finishing with the customer in front of you. You're in a hurry, it's the holidays after all and you have shit to do! C'mon, move it fatty, you think. By the time you get your chance to pay, you've got the evil eyes out on the moron Macy's employee who obviously eats at McDonalds on a daily. She WILL feel your wrath. You wait for the moment when her eyes meet yours, and then, you pounce! and take what little dignity she has left. She's polite, and you're rude. Nevermind the insignificance of it all. You walk away feeling pissed, but a little better than just moments before, having taken the teeny bit of good spirit she'd managed to keep, until you showed up. She feels worse, empty, ugly, and even powerless. Later that day, she supersizes her order to compensate for an emptiness that you played a roll in. Consequently, you get home, and the roles reverse when youre boyfriend is in his own cat-like moment. No matter tho, you'll get it back from the busdriver tomorrow.

We take it. From eachother. And it's ludicrous that we are taught how to do it side by side the commandments and church and thall shall nots. It's as oxymoronic as organic doughnuts.

Even more absurd is that the knowledge of this power remains oblivious to most. What we seek is totally available and guilt free, in copious amounts, like the air we breath everyday. Call it what you want, I call it chi.. short for chillin.

The good news is that it's accessible and still legal. It usually takes practice to develop the sensory. Like riding a bike or kissing well, it doesn't come on the first try. Unless you are the fortunate 5 year old vegetarian yogi, it takes some dedication and committment to get 'good' at accessing it. Why do you think amazing dancers are so attractive? They are filled with this stuff. They are honing it, and make it visible for you to see... something we poppers call riding the beat- natural, effortless.. chillin.

By merely being interested in the subject, you'll draw it to you. So, seek it out, if you wish, or don't be too alarmed when your roommate tries to drag you to yoga next week...

Learning to access it is different than learning to keep from giving it away or taking it from others. That be part 2 and 3. Peace ya'll, -C
