			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My meditation practice has really ramped up in the past month. My goal was to integrate simple yet effective meditation into moments when I could. Walking meditation, biking meditation, even a simple five minutes on my knees at work in the back storage area. Suddenly, everything is different now.</p>
<p>Perceptions and beliefs have changed perpendicularly. Anxiety is now capable of being overcome with raw immediacy, although, this is a skill that I am still improving. My capability to string together experiences without tire has grown. I can work a ten hour day, bike home in high gear, and then sit down for an hour and a half and work on artwork. I can wake up, meditate, and immediately dive into the place where creativity is most fertile.</p>
<p>Social interactivity and short-radius perspective have transformed from facades and illusions into more representative examples of their truths. Stripping away, stripping away, stripping away&#8230;</p>
<p>My current art work and it&#8217;s process, which provides an intense amount of excitement in my life, is to what I owe the bulk of gratitude for this transformation. The past three months have really been about &#8220;getting it,&#8221; the simple epiphany, the burst of light that suddenly reveals. Coupled with a positive attitude about leaving my Twenties, as I worked through my process of making Art, I began to realize what I was doing. I began to interpret my own work, and I began to see the correlation between subconscious revelation and physical construction. I began to get my self, to understand a level of Who I Was I had not yet approached previously.</p>
<p>I cherish this dynamicism I now possess. I feel grateful that through my discipline and concentration I have honed focus. And as this excitement in my grows, so too does my work, both in it&#8217;s own concentration of composition as well in size.</p>

Cheaper iPhone will cost you more over time.
