Mission Statement

I chose the title "Transcendental Piracy" because at the moment one of the biggest quests in my life is to figure out who I really am and what the crap is going on out there. I find myself reading and meditating, meditating with others and talking, searching, perusing, playing, confusing, and all in the name of discovering what all this is about and just to find out that often I am trying too hard and that the more I let go, the more it lets me know. What an oxymoron! The more you you try to understand it, the more it will elude you. I feel that I get closer and closer to understanding life but everytime I begin to glipse what could be my ego starts to run rampid within and I feel as if I am now farther away then when I started. I keep feeling like a pirate, out there partaking and listening and conveying self awareness when I myself am not self aware. Maybe what I need to do is not care at all and just read for the sake of reading, meditate for the sake of meditating, and quit looking for anything. Maybe in that space of zero expectations I will find what it is that I'm not looking for ;-)
