Going To Arizona And Drinking Its Spring Water

On April 26th, I left Albuquerque to go to Phoenix, Arizona. I’m still in Arizona, but was off the grid for most of the week; no phone, no computer.

I met up with Josh. This time last year we camped in Kauai for 5 days on different beaches around the island, but this time we took a cheaper approach.

I flew into Phoenix. The next day we drove north for about 2 hours, then hiked 4 miles into a mountain and set up camp next to a gushing spring pumping water out of the ground.

There’s a reason one feels amazing when drinking spring water. Not as in bottled “spring water”, but real, happy water where ecosystems flourish. This documentary talks about mysteries of water, how it is affected by states-of-consciousness, and possibly might make you think about the potential of life itself (cool).

• They said water has a memory of everything that happens around it.
• Even turning on lights can change the structure of water.
• It’s structure is like a nervous system, reacting to outside stimuli.
• Positive and negative human emotions are the strongest level of influence on water
• Love increases water energy levels
• Animals always choose to drink water that has been taken from a spring, no matter how purified tap water is. Purified water is dead, lacking natural energies.
• Fish were introduced to a batch of water that was exposed to very low energy electromagnetic waves. The breed of fish was highly unusual in appearance and behavior. They were all behaving exactly the same, operating by what seemed to be one single collective mind.

It goes to show that humans may act more like zombies under the influence of a low-energy water supply.

Preaching aside… I’ve seen 2 bald eagles since I’ve been out here, watched Kick-Ass, went down a river on a raft, and mountain-biked in amazing Arizona scenery I didn’t know existed.

I also found out that any American has the luxury buying automatic weapons (with proper licenses, of course).

You think too much.

Lots of contemplation happening these days. Life-long friends seem to be asking the same questions and running into similar confusions, experiencing similar epiphanies.

If there really is something dramatic happening in the collective, it’s not enough for anybody to freely talk about. I also doubt the importance of advertising it here. Then I often question whether I am a victim of my own subjectivity, taking my mental filter of reality too seriously.

TV and movies are talking about the similar subject matter… secrets revealed, the mayans exposed, what 2012 means, the paranormal, the unexplainable, doomsday.

Does nobody else think this is strange?

Does anybody else think this should have been on the news more than Tiger Woods?

It blows my mind what the media brushes aside, what they fixate on, and what the mass is okay with absorbing every single night on the tube.

It also blows my mind that we still play the game of following or voting for politicians, pastors, or school faculty who often make a valiant effort to hide anything human about themselves.

Why don’t we think rituals like church communion or even the opening ceremonies for the Olympics are a little strange (i.e., people in white robes zombie-flocking to the speech-master)? Do we ignore original ideas or questions in our mind relating to why we do things the way we do?

Why do priests wear conical hats and peculiar robes, and carry that staff around? Why does the clergy stick to the same structure that breeds child molesters? What is psychological reason for it, despite its self-declared connection to God? What if God doesn’t like religion? What if God doesn’t “like”?

Why does a graduating class wear a square hat at graduation, move the tassel to the side, and throw it up in the air? Why do we agree to participate in rituals without asking or knowing what it all means?

Why does the newspaper blatantly insist that we drink fluoridated water? Is it really good for us? If so, why did the Nazis immediately add fluoride to their prisoners’ water supply?

Why do so many relationships end with break-up lines from movies or t.v. shows? Why does anybody think “The Bachelor” is reality/real? Why are extremo-masculine and extremo-feminine themes in movies something enjoyed and sought after in real life? See: The Transporter or The Time Travelers Wife.

Why are we okay with repeating empty catch-phrases when giving somebody advice?

Why Bill O’Reilly? Why not Marilyn Manson?

Why are we okay with presidents hiring speech-writers instead of saying their own words?

Why do we try to find security or salvation in other people or things?

Why do sunsets make sense?
