The Northern 📍

Chaos.      Art does not become born, under perfect conditions. Sailors do not become seamen, sitting in a harbour. The necessity of absolute madness, surrounded by the very uncertainty of death, is required to birth something which has not yet been seen. The secret recipe, towards creation and all which it holds within.      These are the ingredients we must learn to embrace within our lives. These are the forces which we must learn to conquer. The very powers which seek to destroy us, must be turned within. The very energy which was meant to kill us, must be harnessed and released back again The never-ending cycle of coming and going, highs and lows. The waves within the tide, as the water rises, before returning to its new norm. The back-and-forth flow of the Universe, pulling and pushing us apart until there is no more.      Life is a strange journey. No matter what route we take, we all end up the same. Death waits for no man, and with i...

  Church.      One thing about church that always stood out to me was the community it formed. Not the sermons, not the worship. Not even the tall, incredible building and its amazing art within (Alright, I admit, that part did stand out to me a little bit).

Most individuals do not make time for anything close to such tasks, yet for church, they always seem to find a way.      Worship has been a primal human factor since we began recording history. Every single man in the world has a desire to give thanks to something or someone above them, to ...

  The Time Has Come.      Now more than ever, speed is essential. The wait is over. The efforts we have laid are finally about to turn into the fruits of labour. It is time to collect our rewards, and begin a new adventure.      Moving forward, the inability to act must no longer be an option. The stoic nature of the warrior, although necessary in battle, must no longer seep into our everyday life. The traction and movement of life, where one is able to produce results at an astonishing pace, is a must.      Speed kills, or so I’ve heard. That sounds like a cope for the average individual. Speed can be your greatest ally, if you choose to use it correctly. The ability to fully immerse yourself into the present, and take advantage of whatever tools or weapons you’ve been delivered, is a skill. A skill, which is now more important than ever. The ability to stand up and execute your will, as quickly as possible. Make no mistake, my friends-...
