Innocent children invest no capital or judgement in being wrong. They are simply wrong when they are wrong and 'OK' with that . . . no guilt, no shame, no capital, no judgement.

Innocence is one of the keys to learning . . . being wrong some of the time is a guaranteed event while learning. It indicates courage. Courage is a word that means  coming from the heart and at the heart of the game is the fulfilment point.

Remain a student throughout your life . . . be constantly willing to begin at a beginning as a beginner. Then be happily wrong to become happily right . . . invest your capital in the right of eventually discovering right. It is an adventurous and rewarding path and honours your highest self.

Where we are actually located right now in this life is what is referred to as our fate . . . the actual conditions and consciousness and emotions and thoughts of this very accurate — yet un-progressed and un-regressed — moment.

Our destination in this life . . . the reality of who we ultimately are — who we can become through all your activated options is referred to as our destiny.

The journey of a human life is to travel from where we are — our fate — to who we are — our destiny.

Most people consciously or unconsciously distract themselves from living in either of these locations. They are neither where they are, or who they are, but a chaotic mixture of being distracted from the actualities of fate and doubting the possibilities of destiny. All this while life patiently and dutifully waits on some parallel track . . . waiting for consciousness to awaken to at least one of these opportunities.

The process of destiny has forever . . . the awakening however, will take place in a single given moment . . . welcome its arrival with all our heart and with every breath.

Stranded in the Strait

One of the saddest videos I've seen in a long time about a group of Sikh youth stuck on the north tip of Africa desperately trying to make it to a new life in Europe. From a documentary entitled Stranded in the Strait by Alberto G. Ortiz:

In the densely forested hills above Ceuta, a Spanish enclave on the Moroccan coast, 57 young Indian immigrants await their fate in a shanty community they’ve built to avoid deportation. With lush visual style, the film accompanies them in their daily trials as they scramble to survive, waiting to cross the last 14 km that separate them from Europe. Will they make it there?
