powder gods

Spiritual experiences don't just happen every day. I believe certain contributing factors lead to circumstances where you feel like you have just been transported into the clouds and felt the ropes to earthly pittances go slack. Basically your mind fucked when you realize real life will hit you in the face eventually. So what factors are needed to experience awesomeness? I believe it's about mind state- so anything that affects your mind state, wheather it be euphoria, sticky green or just plain old beer. So, you think- does getting high and watching a movie count. Maybe. If you're laughing so hard you lose all the blood from your brain and start thinking you're in the film. But the more likely venue? That would be travelling to a new spot, and seeing something from a new perspective, influenced by a picturesque or even horrifying vista.

This weekend, I kneeled at the altar of the powder gods and was rewarded with the ability to float across the earth, feeling weightless, free and perfectly in control. Completed by the backdrop of some amazing vistas, and inhuman heights- emphasizing how small we are in the big picture and making me feel just a little luckier to have this great feeling. And later? We were a drunk and rowdy crew, feeling invincible, just out for a good time in some amazing snow, playing games and having fun. Only one thing could have made the picture complete- a missing piece, but we'll anticipate her presence for next time. So, after a long day of board meetings, does any President call it a day? No, we continued on into the night, getting our work done and thanking the powder gods for blessing us with the spiritual experience.

Signing out as El Presidente, I will get on with the three things that have made me happy since my last post.
1. Powder.
2. Beer.
3. Good friends and family to party with. (Still missing you boo!)
