Welcome back to the transmission, my friends, and one of the things that's been on my mind

as of late for I guess a multitude of reasons that I won't get into right now is when you cut out all

of the noise and the obligations and the ego what really in the simplest terms matters makes life

better life worth living and of course that is an incredibly nuanced question with endless answers

but there are a few things that immediately jump out for me one is of course the quality of our

mind since they are the aperture through which we view the world exist in the world interact with

the world I would also say feeling a sense of purpose in life I mean feeling like you're not just

here consuming filling up garbage cans smashing calories into your face buying Pokemon cards I mean

you got to feel like you're doing something that matters something that smooches your soul and

hopefully the souls of others at least some of the time and another one one of the biggest

elements of that answer is for sure the people in our lives and not just having people around us

who are nice and there but people who we feel a real kinship with a real sense of whoa this

friendship goes down to the god damn root system of reality like I think my soul might have been

cut from a similar soul cloth or something and that really is how I feel about my wonder brother

Colin frangicetto as many of you know by now he's a close friend but he's also I would say a

highly successful artist under both his own name and the pseudonym ADHD slash space case he's

also a hugely talented musician best known as the guitar player in the band circus survive and again

as many of you already know back in 2019 Colin and I went on a heroing wonderful and everything in

between Peruvian ayahuasca adventure in fact there's a whole series of pods on that look back

through the catalog at our ayahuasca adventure series if you want to hear the tale in all of its

I would also characterize Colin as just a real seeker and truly one of the nicest biggest

hearted humans I know to the like he buys random gifts for people he's thinking of other people
