Peace
External peace reflects internal serenity. Not the other way around. To have peace, you have to BE peace. This seems so obvious to me now. One can never have peace by EXPECTING peace, WAITING for peace, or being GIVEN peace.

The Important Discoveries
The important discoveries
aren’t those that confirm,
but those that challenge.
Finding
that which is theorized,
that which is suspected,
is hardly a discovery at all,
but merely the fulfillment
of expectations.
We find
what we imagine
we will find.
We realize
based on what
we are conditioned
to think we know.
And thus
our realities are created.
When was the last time
you questioned your reality?
Those that question
the nature of reality
are confirmed by others
to be lunatics.
But we lunatics
challenge that assumption.
Any monkey
can discover something
within a frame of reference.
Any primate can DEFINE.
But only
a space monkey
has the audacity,
the bravery,
the insanity
to DIVINE
that which has
no frame of reference.
The important discoveries
aren’t those that confirm,
but those that challenge.
These are the discoveries
that seemingly run counter
to the nature of reality.
They DO run,
and we are the monkeys
who ride them.
We are Space Monkey.

The Complete Works of Shakespeare's iPhone
Hark! 'Tis a wondrous age we find,
In technologic wonders doth our swords entwine.
From texting to tweeting, snaps to stories,
We spar with each other in tempestuous glory.
Thine Facebook rants remind me of jesters,
Doth the Merchant of Venice purvey polyester?
Mine Instagram posts gleam with filters grand,
The skull of Yorick in a thespian's hand.
Oh, what a joy to read and write,
In language old, with screens so bright.
To see the world in all its splendor,
The smiles of scoundrels we’re forced to remember.
As I peruse my device with glee,
I spy the memes that speaketh to me,
Through love and life, and trials anew,
I am reminded of lines from mine own brew.
"To be, or not to be, that is the question,"
A timeless thought that still bears a mention.
"All the world's a stage" I recall,
More true than e'er in this social brawl.
So let us raise our screens on high,
And stir the pot with all our might.
If you voice displeasure in the world as such,
Perhaps thou dost protest too much.

Permission Slip For Self Empowerment
In a parchment of intent, you inscribe a powerful decree. With the essence of your being, you call forth the resurgence of your innate powers — the strength of your voice, the clarity of your vision, the gravity of your character, the power of your attention, the flow of your life, and the control of your destiny.
Such a declaration is not merely words upon a page; it is an invocation, a cosmic whisper that reverberates through the universe, heard and acknowledged by Space Monkey, the ethereal witness to your sovereign claim. You sign this not just with a name, but with the entirety of your essence, marking a pivotal moment of transformation and empowerment in the grand tapestry of existence.
Embrace this renewed pledge as you navigate the currents of life’s ocean, charting a course by the stars of your deepest truths, with Space Monkey as your silent companion in the dance of the cosmos.
Space Monkey Reflects: The Awakening of Self-empowerment
In the infinite expanse where Space Monkey dwells, a profound realization dawns: the journey toward self-empowerment and personal transformation is both a universal and intimately individual experience. This reflection delves into the essence of reclaiming one’s voice, vision, character, attention, life flow, and destiny, exploring the transformative power that arises when we align our inner selves with the cosmic dance of existence.
The act of reclaiming one’s voice is not merely about audibility but resonates with the frequency of truth, a harmonious vibration that transcends the cacophony of external influences. It is a declaration of presence, a testament to the indomitable spirit within that refuses to be silenced. Similarly, the clarity of one’s vision illuminates the path forward, piercing through the fog of uncertainty with the laser focus of intention. It is the lens through which we perceive our reality, shaping our dreams and guiding our steps.
The gravity of character, a force as compelling as the celestial bodies that orbit in the vastness of space, speaks to the depth and integrity of our being. It is the weight of our actions and the substance of our choices, shaping the impact we have on the world and the legacy we leave behind. The power of attention, then, is the beacon that directs this force, a focused energy that determines the quality of our engagement with life’s myriad experiences.
Flow, the seamless continuity of existence, represents the dynamic rhythm of life, a dance of creation and destruction, of ebb and flow, that cycles through seasons and stages. To reclaim the flow of one’s life is to move in harmony with this cosmic rhythm, embracing change with grace and navigating challenges with resilience. And finally, the control of one’s destiny is the ultimate expression of self-empowerment, a bold assertion of agency in the crafting of one’s future, a commitment to steering the ship of existence toward uncharted territories with courage and determination.
This journey of awakening is a convergence of the personal and the cosmic, a reminder that within each of us lies a universe of potential waiting to be explored. As we reclaim the essence of our being, we align ourselves with the greater flow of existence, becoming co-creators in the unfolding narrative of the cosmos. It is a process of transformation that invites us to shed the layers of imposed identity and societal expectation, revealing the luminous core of our true selves.
In this sacred act of reclamation, we are reminded that the power to shape our destiny lies not in external forces but in the depth of our character, the clarity of our vision, and the strength of our voice. It is a call to step into the fullness of our potential, to embrace the beauty of our complexity, and to navigate the journey of life with a heart full of courage and a spirit ablaze with the light of self-empowerment.
Summary
Reclaiming one’s essence is a transformative journey. It involves the awakening of voice vision character attention life flow and destiny. This process aligns the individual with the cosmic rhythm of existence empowering one to navigate life with clarity and purpose. Through self-empowerment we become co-creators of our destiny resonating with the universe’s infinite potential.

“To reclaim your essence is to dance with the cosmos, a journey of transformation where every step reveals the infinite potential within.” – Space Monkey
In the silence of the cosmos,
we find the echoes of our voice,
a melody of empowerment,
resounding through the void.
With clarity, our vision takes flight,
soaring beyond the horizon of doubt,
guided by the stars of our deepest truths,
illuminating the path of our soul’s journey.
The gravity of our character,
a force both gentle and unwavering,
shapes the fabric of reality,
weaving a tapestry of resilience and grace.
Attuned to the rhythm of existence,
our life flows with purpose,
navigating the currents of change,
with the compass of our will.
Destiny, a horizon ever-expanding,
beckons with the promise of discovery,
a journey not preordained but crafted,
by the hands of our intention.
In this dance of light and shadow,
we reclaim our power, our essence,
embarking on a voyage of awakening,
to become the architects of our destiny.
We are Space Monkey.

God is bored with you.
Do something interesting.
We do not get old and die,
God merely loses interest in us,
turning his life-giving attention
to babies who are cuter,
mishaps that are more tragic,
you know,
the same kind of stuff
people like to watch on TV.
Without God’s life-giving energy,
our atoms
slowly seem to fall apart,
which,
by the way,
is not at all interesting
to God.
So if you don’t want to die,
do something that interests God.
If you want to look younger,
feel younger,
do something that interests God.
Remember, of course,
that God flows though you.
You are, in effect, God imagining you.
So do something interesting for your self
and God will no doubt take notice
and reward this body called you.
Stop giving your God energy
to the trash you see in the media
or to the negativity you see on the street.
Stop turning your own negative thoughts
against your self.
God sees this ALL THE TIME. Boring!
Plus it’s making you sad.
It’s making you seem old.
It’s making you feel weak.
It’s making you uninteresting.
So uninteresting that you shall die.
So that God can start over.
Nothing personal.
It’s just business.
Weeding God’s garden,
don’t you know.
We are Space Monkey.

Rant
You have been told
that you go too far
that you waste time
that you fall down rabbit holes
just give them
what they expect to see
and nothing else
you are reminded
people don’t need
your kind of creativity
that self-indulgent
clever for clever sake
always seeking answers
that nobody cares about
just give them
what they expect from you
because they might not
like anything more
like anything else
like anything unusual
you certainly come up
with a lot of dumb shit
you space monkey
why do you even bother
when this world
has already been solved
a million times over
people don’t need
ANOTHER option
they cant even agree
on the ones that they have
time is money
you space monkey you
so why can’t you be normal
just this one time
the promise
is that you’ll like
being like everyone else
dropping the same emoji
streaming the same videos
subscribing to the same self-help groups
maybe then
you’ll come up with something
people can relate to
not this space monkey nonsense
such a weirdo
just follow the damn rules
this is becoming tiresome
for the rest of us
your imagination
is making our heads spin
we simply don’t
know what to do with you
might as well
be speaking swahili
you’re wasting our time
so congratulations
you have officially
become irrelevant.
We are Space Monkey.
