Welcome to
the chaotic and often strange life of Dan Abernathy. This is my
platform for random thoughts, often meandering and incomplete, rants,
praise, love, words of no meaning, and words of too much meaning. This
is my voice. It is my collection of oddities, fascinations,
photographs, desires, and obsessions – a road map of sorts, tracking a
vagabond who walks in dreams of a pure, hedonistic life. This is a
place to keep those interested informed not only of what's happening in
my life, but also what is igniting in the gray matter of my mind.
Hopefully, you will get a glimpse into the state of my chaos and
confusion. Here there are no rules! By entering and staying, you will
be opening doors to my mind and looking in. Some will find this venture
entertaining and filled with wonderment. The unknowing or unwilling to
know will find pure confusion, fear, and bewilderment.
This blog is a love letter to
everyone and anyone that may choose to
spend some time here. It is a love letter as true love is honest and
that is all you will find here, 98% honesty of who and what I am. The
other 2% is going to the beyond with me, so the scholars and naysayers
can figure the last bit out.

Happiness
Should Not Be Hard
Being happy
for the way someone else makes you feel
is not being happy
for the way you feel.
Be happy by yourself,
when you are alone
and no one else is beside you.
When all is calm and quiet
without the aid of wine and song.
This time is true happiness,
and should not be hard to obtain.-

Looking
For Myself
Looking for myself,
I went and knocked on a hidden door.
I was hoping to find me on the other
side.
I have been lonely for myself
for such a very long time.
I kept knocking.
I could even hear me on the other side.
I tried, but I could not open the door.
It would not budge.
I have been so lonely for myself,
for such a very long time. - dba

"The
Lord of Life is love. Never get sad.
Be happy and take care of your happiness.
Jump in joy without worrying for the
future.
Why remain serious?
Let you learn to jump in joy and smile
all the time."

Breaking Calmness
Sleep encompasses your body, soul and
mind for a time that could be forever, or for a moment. We do not know
until we wake and the nothingness is disturbed or gone. It is
disturbing that the same calmness cannot over take us in our waking
hours, to only be broken by the feeling of love and the insanity of
laughter. - dba

I met Sam Salwei as he came through in
his Peace Car. He is a member of Yoga
Slackers, Extreme Living With Awareness. This is cool and should be
looked at. I stored the mountain bikes of his and some friends as they
went into the Wind River range. It is these chance encounters in life
that polish who we are. Though I may never see him again, we shared
some human kindness.
