Smallville

190 hours of TV watching the last year. Woahhh. I have told people many times that I don’t really watch tv. But this was watching TV for sure. 9 days in a year. Plus all the phone time, plus a bunch of movies. It was a big screen year for me.

Smallville is all about Clark Kent developing his powers and confronting challenges and tests to eventually become who we know as Man of Steel or Superman. It is a little comedic, dramatic, love story, coming-of-age adventurous, and full of great teachings and lessons. It has a heavy spiritual tie about balance between “good” and “bad”. It has mention of the deadly sins and the commandments and messages laid out throughout that get your brain stimulated in a uplifted was.

Superman symbol = Hope

Who doesn’t love hope. Who doesn’t want to be inspired by a man with powers who uses them for good, not his personal gain, not for anyone elses gain, and who is imperfect and makes many mistakes. It is an inspiring show.

It’s over, just like that. All that time watching and now I switch gears into training/studying for a Wilderness Emergency Medical Technician course this March.

It is having a lasting affect on me. Acceptance.Trust. Hope. Love. Insight.

I used to try to put down watching shows and tv. Mannn this was a good one. They are not all equal and balance is a good thing. Maybe there is always balance no matter what we do. Maybe as humans we go through phases, or get stuck in certain behaviors and its just part of the process. Its just the way it goes. Maybe what people talk about as “enlightenment” is really just awareness of awareness and the decisions one made in the past and direction they are looking towards in the future.

I speculate and theorize because I want to understand for myself. I don’t know. I am just a human trying to live my life the best I can. I believe most people are. Sometimes its just really hard. Sometimes from any other perspective what you did was bad but you had good intentions.

I AM RAMBLING ahaha. I am getting somewhere though..

I am right here now.

There is a ton of scenes that show Clark practicing presence.

Sure is nice to be present.

Ever stopped being present with something and stubbed a toe or injured yourself? I Have.

I practice a lof of presence. Im glad to have spent time watching a show with lots of good stories, ideas, yada yada.

Watch it or don’t.

Wherever there is evil, good will be there to balance it out.

Maybe you need to stimulate that force of good. Maybe you need to act and the way to act right is with presence.

Everyone has got a life to live and let unfold. I hope you enjoy watching yours.

Do you enjoy watching your life?

What could you do to enjoy it more?

You have the power to change things in your life. Don’t wait till your old for that thing you keep saying you want/will do.
