There are two ways to face adversity in life. One is to push the big red button that says "Don't push" and go into free fall, all the while feeling justified in your actions because of how someone else treated you. The other is to maintain universal perspective.
When you have universal perspective, you see that anger is simply refusal to accept a given situation. Yet when you live in the moment, you realize that you cannot change something that has happened; You CAN change, how you react to that something. When the whole world seems against you, it never, EVER is. You simply feel like it is because you are an imperfect creature. When you remember that there is a right way and wrong way to behave, you can CHOOSE to lead the majestic life. You choose to be the majestic self.
We are tribal creatures, we are all connected. If we treat each other better, we in turn will be treated better. Become The Majestic Self, and lead by example. Become your highest self, and feel true happiness. Become the person you always could have been, by REAL-ising who you truly are.

Universal awakening
The world around you has many Universal laws. Some laws have been discovered by science (Entropy, Thermodynamics, Newtons law etc). Some of which are more abstract and balanced without a direct measuring stick or mathematic equation. It is these laws we must grasp in order to make the most of our daily lives.
Nature has many simple laws that most of us now accept. Survival of the fittest, combined with limited food resources for overpopulated species results in a natural ecosystem balance. Nature has a natural yin/yang quality. Any action has a reaction, but it may not be equal and there could be a delay involved. The key misunderstanding of cause and effect thinking is that reactions should be instant. The only exception to any universal law is where the human ego or mind is involved. The human mind clouds our natural instinct, our highest self instinctively knows how to react in certain situations. Yet our greed, our beliefs our low self esteem will often get in the way of acting how we should in a certain situation.
The sad thing is we already know how to be successful in any walk of life, we just have to remember to use our instinct.
The Universe will try to address any imbalance in your life with warnings. These warnings appear to be, and by all logic are random events. Yet it is our instinctual reaction to them which gives them their meaning. If you see a crash or have a near death experience there are lessons you can learn from that moment. Instantly you will feel shock, but then a bout of reflective thought that causes you to re-evaluate your principles and beliefs. This may also happen in the wake of losing a loved one, yet how many of us can say these lessons truly stick with us? The conclusions you come to in these moments of reflection are often close to those of truly happy, enlightened and successful people.
Why do we then discard these lessons and impose our socially imposed beliefs as soon as the shock has left us? Why does our ego overtake our instinct once more? Because we allow it to. Listen to your highest self, the self that is naturally in touch with the universe, the self that was shaped and is a direct result of the universe itself. This is already within you. Principles are a substitute for an ability to think for yourself. Challenge who you are, challenge what you think, no matter how long you have thought something. We cling to our principles like old friends, the give us comfort, but they ultimately lead us astray. You have the key to your soul, the key to all the universes pleasures, you just need to re-mind yourself how to over-ride your ego. Happy Summer people!

Gap in the Silence
Download Festival 2006...
My camera died but MAN I had a good time. Its all too easy with waterpistols and cold beer to entice and tease people with... Oh and we had a guy dressed as Mr T with us too.
As for the bands. Holy crap.
Soulfly were simply stunning as ever, renditions of my favorite songs pretty much and we even got a rendition of Sepultura's "Roots"!!!! Tool nearly sent me to sleep but are excellent musicians, would have been better joining the stoners on the hill for this one I guess though. Soil sounded good and were very watchable, but they basically have one song... highlight was Jada Pinket Smiths appearance for a few growls. Thats a woman right there.
Saturday, Trivium, Korn and Metallica. What more needs to be said? Metallica played the entire Master of Puppets album and ran long. What a show. Jonathan Davis was apparently taken ill so we got the lead singers of other bands including skindred, trivium and slipknots corey taylor. It was quite impressive although there was a weird man in a bunny suit bouncing around on stage. The rumour is that was Davis and he was either drunk or they're trying to top lasts years "Lars is ill" talking point.
Sunday. I'll start by saying Guns and Roses SUCK, I never liked them much and they pleased all the people who turned up to see them. I thought they sounded poor though. Dragonforce and In Flames were phenomenal live, especially the latter. An excellent performance and they won themselves some fans with that show.
Other highlights include shooting pedestrians in Long Eaton with supersoakers from my sunroof. Daily Breakfasts at Asda. An excellent shopping area on the campsite. The general banter between the people I was stayin with. "Matt yeah, did you enjoy; SHUT UP!" "Fuckins Maaah", playing football in 30 degree heat and "A brews a brew!"
