Vested Interests

This video gave me an idea for an interesting analogy. By reversing the analogies of the video, one can have some interesting insight to our society.

The compensations, cranes using fuel, and the armor caused an aha when the narrator (around 7:00) talks about how our vested interests and security will protest if we choose to feel and think . . . moving towards healing.

What does this say about society?

Spring Semester 2011

New semester is coming up fast! I am currently working on a masters application for the fall. Yep, that means I will have a Bachelors this spring. I am adding a fitness class to my already full schedule, because I need it. Maybe it will inspire me to get back into shape again. The past several years of school have really taken a toll on my physical well-being, kind of odd considering  that one of my majors was Exercise Science.

After a few weeks of break and slacking on Alexander, I began really missing it and needing it today. I had signed up for the same class again this semester, but they cut it. It is sad really, because it is very expensive otherwise. 'tis a shame that such a crucial, and potentially life changing technique is kept out of reach of the masses. I shall do what I can by reading, watching videos and applying what I learned last semester.

Now I will apply what I learned to everything else, now that this isn't my Alexander journal/blog. It will expand its horizon a bit. Everything I do and learn is interrelated, so . . .
