❝There is the path of joy and there is the path of pleasure. Both attract the soul. Pondering on them, the wise chooses the path of joy; the fool takes the path of pleasure.

-The Upanishads

❝ White anthropologists claim that Indians have “primitive” and therefore deficient minds, that we cannot think in the higher mode of consciousness - rationality. They are fascinated by what they call the “magical” mind, the “savage” mind, the “participation mystique” of the mind that says the world of the imagination - the world of the soul - and of the spirit is just as real as physical reality. In trying to become “objective”, Western culture made “objects” of things and people when it distanced itself from them, thereby losing “touch” with them. This dichotomy is the root of all violence.

I love it!

I started wearing headbands last summer. I thought, hmm I've always loved the hippie-bohemian look, why not try the headbands?


I bought all different kinds of beaded headbands because I was obsessed. It matched so good during the summer, especially with my tan. I came to the conclusion that you can't really be a hippie during the winter but this year you can because the sun has been shining throughout the whole winter. Although, the temperatures are low sometimes, the headband can be pulled off with some good moccasins.

Anyways, I loved the head jewelry Kim Kardashian was wearing back in October. I think she would be stunning as a hippie. She would be so much more alluring than let's say, hollywood controlled Vanessa Hudgens. She has that tan, the curves and the hair. Just take a look at this image above. I adore that sweater she's wearing and the head piece! But the following picture doesn't look so hot. To me, it looks like she's torn between her business woman appearance and her exotic look. The head jewelry is hot though.

Ehh

Don't get me wrong, she's very beautiful. And she definitely carries that exotic look, as can be seen in this picture:

This is how I feel sometimes. 

Carry me Caravan take me away 

Take me to Portugal, take me to Spain Andalusia with fields full of grain I have to see you again and again Take me, Spanish Caravan Yes, I know you can 

Trade winds find Galleons lost in the sea I know where treasure is waiting for me Silver and gold in the mountains of Spain I have to see you again and again Take me, Spanish Caravan Yes, I know you can

Here are some images of sunsets I love (the first two were taken by me):
