Joshua Stokes

My name is Joshua and I come from a place that is void of life. The Nevada deserts are my home; hot and blistering during the day, and freezing during the night. Life is not linear in my eyes, you can shape and predict your own future as you wish. After all, there is the saying "your life is in your hands." The way the world bends to your will and then spits it back in your face amazes me. The mechanics of the universe in short terminology. In my opinion karma is what controls our lives. If we put out good energy, then we will receive good consequences. I believe that there needs to be a balance of everything in life, good and bad. Sometimes, you have to stop by and smell the roses... only to be pricked by the thorns in some situations. Thus allowing you to realize the limitations of yourself and society They say that the forbidden fruit is the sweetest, these past sages are not lying. I believe in taking risks beyond my limits to give myself new limits, in turn exceeding the potential and bearings of others. To become a journeyman of life is my goal. The inner teachings and the way the universe speaks to you can best be explained by the emotions that are created through your actions. If you plant seeds of destruction then you can pretty much guess what you're going to get later on down the road. If you sew a golden threaded sheet then I would hope your life turns out good for you. The way I view the world does not have to be the same as yours I don't care if it is or not cause I know what is accepted and right just as much as others do. Who are we to judge others, doing nothing but pointing out the specs in others eyes while forgetting about the 2x4 in yours. The world is full of so much oddities and unexplained phenomena that we are nothing but peons in the scheme of things.
