    I posted this in the communal living area, but then I thought hey, really this is my first post, so I should do an introduction (sorry mr/miss moderator if you deem this spammage - I think its ok)

    so to add introwise, I am 29, and hippie style person, but I do kinda believe in trying to subtly and manipulatively try to sneakily make everyone else a hippie, by some mystical force of some such or another if that is possible

    Hey all,

    I am pretty crazy. But also completley with it. If you get my drift. I am very good to good and friendly people.

    Anyway, I have just come back from South America. I have left the 'system' over a couple of years ago. Now, I am really out there, when it comes to my vision and passion, but I never trample on anyone who has their own vision, or get in peoples' face.

    I am currently in Adelaide. I have finally got together a few hundred bucks or so, and well I hate money, but if a few hundred bucks helps me get a foot up to get out of the money pit and into the air of nothing, then so be it.

    This is the plan. I want to get away from everything that holds me to earth, and in doing so live with the earth side by side. And then some day change the world (but one at a time ok!). I am getting a free tent from my friend (probly a two man). And I am going to try and car pool up to Alice Springs. Why Alice? Cos I just like the name. Nah, that and I just feel drawn there.

    From there, I plan to try and learn various aboriginal techniques, not neccessarily from anyone but myself, but I will take any offer of advice I fall upon. I want to be able to survive in extreme what would be designated "uninhabitable" territory. I want to get in touch with my spirit as much as possible, and the nature, and the elements. I want to feel the cold, and feel the heat, and be one with it. I want to capture water dew off of plants and live by bare minimum, not forcibly. But just in a way that what comes to me, comes to me.

    Yes, some will say, a sarcastic good luck, you will die. Negativity to me. I am not stupid. I have done some tough hiking on bare needs before. I do not wish to hear doubt. Keep it to yourself please. I will always go at baby steps. Thought out. Wise considered. Start with the tent and small supplies. Keep within certain miles of township, and then slowly expand my way out, and adjust in gradual ease. Not so hard when you look at it that way is it?

    My whole mentality is to live in faith. Faith in everything working out right. And 9 billion people will try to pull me down, like as if they were the underlying force of gravity, but to fly, you just gotta fly.

    I envision, I will as much as like be doing this by myself. As not many are as crazy as me with this type of disconnect. I don't own mobile, have a small backpack, and well if I had anymore it would just be a weight. Even as my backpack as small as it is, is still a weight.

    But I put out a hand and say this: I aim to be in Alice springs in 22-25 september, will ground myself a little in hostel or so for a night or two, then camp, then just go wherever I am taken by the wind.

    I have a charango (small guitar) I plan to teach myself on the way... and if anyone wants to start a band...i can sing ok (shyness is my problem)...and well anyone else who can sing is ok too... I really like to sing fleet foxes, but only cos I know the lyrics so well... but any other song that I like I guess

    success is written all over the palms of my hands, and under my eyelids too, so if anyone wants to come along... and change the world through spirituality and love, and have fun in the process, and learn character through hardship, you are welcome to contact me..

    I do realise, that perhaps similiar has been done or said before, but I am not so similiar.

    All the best wishes to everyone on the forum.

    You take the harder road, but you know in your heart it is to be easy.

    Peace

    No travelling companions? It's been 11 minutes already?? Cmon!

    Just to reply to my own thread with random thought.

    I reckon the coolest age to be is 5. When I was 3 I was always thinkin, "man I wish i was 5"...and I reckon ever since 5, it's been downhill....but then I thought, Well if Ive gone downhill, perhaps if I walk back uphill pant pant pant, I can just rolllllllllll back down the other side of the hill on roller skates and be 5 again

    More thoughts:

    We as the globe, are on the cusp of a massive peace movement that will dwarf the seventies. History repeats, such as was said by Terrence Mckenna. We are coming out of a rat race dive, and into a bird flies high. That is how life works since the dawn of time, push and pull.

    But. You gotta get in the game. You have to get in people faces a little so they can see you, but not smell you. Do not be ashamed of yourself, as it is only the shame of the other person reflected on you. So yeah, don't go and annoy people, in the evangelical sense, but just show them you are not afraid to be peaceful when everyone else is rush rush rush.

    Ie. If you went and sat in the middle of a city park, got a rug and had a picnic, chill out as much as possible. You will feel like everyone is staring at you. That is paranoia, which is essentially feeling everyone elses fear of you, projected at you. It is their fear. Their fear of knowing their true selves, by seeing someone else true to their form. Their fear becomes your fear.

    So if you say, I wish I was young in the seventies. Bring the seventies to you. As John Lennon inspired that golden era, you can inspire this era, by not being ashamed of being real, being true, just being free. It was done, it can be done again. Better. For everyone in the world right now is looking for something. People are lost like never before. And all it takes will be a nudge and a movement that rises from ripple into wave into tsunami.
