The Alchemist…

“That’s what alchemists do. They show that, when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.”
There’s not much to be said about this book that hasn’t already been mentioned by many before me. I’m providing a download link of the unabridged audio version, read by Jeremy Irons. Some folks like to listen to stories. Some just don’t have time to grab the book. However you ingest, then digest this piece of literature, enjoy it.

A rhyme inspired by ‘God’s Debrie’…
Posted by iAreConscious in Old Notes on May 8, 2010
I read a great story some time ago. One of those you can knock it out in one sitting deals. For the open mind I gather it would be quite the enjoyable read. I want to share it with you guys because I know all of your minds are not only open and curious, but always intrigued by new and interesting things.
Read the rhyme. Then click the link in the last line. Awaits you, a pdf file with the story I just mentioned. Enjoy.
chillen and illen, and willen to fly.
i, building wit pilgrim, plus villain spillin duh wine.
fillin in blanks, blanketed talk, chalk walk definitive lines..
sunshine and aqua replenish this unlimited mind
subliminal, crime – lab, line stab’em in eye
show’em the point, point blank mey siah arrive in the sky
i turn pages, rip stages, navigate life’s mazes…
at the same time ‘wondering why’?
what does it all mean, he fabricated a dream involving a spleen
and irene cryin over some cream
these sheep asleep, get herded 2day
she just missed the beast nourished by curds and some way…
marketed by the beast but that’s awful cliche…
thumb out and about hitchikin, a dj
serato to scratch, soundwaves over digital wax
poetic with vets, the religion war is over,
an avatar never forgets, dem properties of we
minuscule pieces of god’s debris
Drop me a line after you’ve read it and share your thoughts about it.

Death Note – TV Series
Posted by iAreConscious in Reviews on December 6, 2008
From Manga to Anime to two full length feature films and a third on the way dedicated to one of its main characters, the Death Note series has become a phenomenon in Japan and the folks from the Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim want to make sure a new audience in North America knows this as well. Tired and bored of the day to day occurrences in the shinigami world, Ryuk a shinigami(god of death) decides he’ll have a little bit of fun by dropping his ‘Death Note’ in the human world. The action soon begins once Light Yagami, a certified young super genius, discovers it on the campus of his highschool. Plainly put, the holder of this book is capable of ending the life of his/her victim by thinking of them and writing down their name. It’s the science of visualization gone terribly wrong. As Light’s quest to rid the world of evil proceeds he gains the title Kira. The question remains will he become the god he strives to be and turn his dreaded world into a crime less utopia. For that answer you’ll just have to tune in.
The Measure Of A Man by Sidney Poitier
Posted by iAreConscious in Reviews on December 6, 2008
‘The Measure Of A Man’ isn’t a self absorbed autobiography of an individual that’s accomplished much and chooses to assault us with his greatness. Sidney Poitier of course, is well aware of his contributions to the art of film, playing in a number of pieces with controversial topics that were far more then simply influential on life beyond the silver screen. Indeed, he’s modest to an extent. The most endearing segments of his story are the ones told about his early life as a child on ‘Cat Island’ in the Bahamas. A consistent theme in the book is how his training for survival as a youth on the island was revisited during various moments of significance throughout his seventy plus years. In my opinion the most important concept discussed is one of self analysis that ties directly into self responsibility along with the importance of family. Sidney Poitier covers so much to be considered in this ‘spiritual autobiography’. A great read written by an equally great man.
