As you all know I'm Christian, however I think the ten commandments are really fucking boring and bland. I mean honestly, every Christian out there has broken a commandment daily but it's not that big of a deal is it? I think it needs to be spiced up a little bit, so I have written a brand new set of ten commandments based upon how I feel they should be written! Enjoy!

The Ten Meade Commandments
1. Thou shalt not obey other jammers but Meade the almighty
2. Thou shalt not worship or idolise anything except Wayne Carey, Ollie Rayner, slutz, jodz and spanky
3. Thou shalt not take Meade’s name in vain, unless you are thy goat
4. Remember thy Sunday, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour except dirty mooches like Marnz; but the seventh day is for rest or schlamming after a big night at the gal or hush. On the seventh day water must be consumed in bulk proportion to ensure dehydration doesn’t set in
5. Honour thy goat (father) or he may rage; jam thy mary (mother) as they are weak. All sisters shalt be called sluts; all brothers shalt be called metros.
6. Thou shalt not get physical; fights will be resolved with words and logic.
7. Thou shalt not mooch ex-girlfriends or roots from thy fellow bro; regardless of the length of thy homogeneity   
8. Thou shalt not mooch working man’s hard earned tax dollars
9. Thou shalt not jam thy neighbour unless thy neighbour is of Japanese, Mexican or Korean descent.
10. Thou shalt not be envious of thy neighbour’s possessions. Unless thy neighbour is a dirty mooch in which case you can schlam thy neighbour’s wife, drive thy neighbour’s lambo and kidnap thy neighbour’s child as a personal slave. If thy neighbour possesses a 1972 kombi van then obtain a bus to jam thy neighbour



Realistically I see these as being more successful. Or as Jim Jefferies says maybe the bible should be a singular page document with four words written on it. (youtube it).

Friendship.

To everyone who's held me up and everyone who's brought me down
I will never forget your faces, your voices.
To everyone who's held me up and everyone who's brought me down
I will never forget your faces, your voices.
Wink and smile for a while behind a mask
In a room of double faces, you can never hide what's in your past.

Haven't updated this motherfuckaaaaaaaaaaa in while so may as well share my thoughts to the internet world yo! Lately the main thing that has been on my mind is friendships and lots of small things that all intertwine and come back to the topic of friendship. Now don't worry, I will not actually name anyone because that's not how I roll but let's give it a crack ayeeeee.

So about a week ago someone said to me something along the lines of 'Your friends are so seedy and weird" or some bullshit like that, which actually made me quite angry because the person doesn't really know my friends at all and it lead to me writing a nice little Facebook status about all of my friends. You see the thing is, I don't deny the fact that my mates are weird fucks, but I'm also a bit of a weird fuck, even though I'd assume I'm into normal shit as well. However, that's not the thing that bothers me. The thing that ultimately bothers me is the fact that I've been told the same thing numerous times ever since I began high school by multiple sources and the shit is starting to get a bit old. I choose who my friends are based upon whether we have similar interests and whether I believe deep down that the person is a good-hearted individual and has the potential to not only be a great person, but a great friend to me as well. Appearance for me has never mattered. I wake up daily and don't really give a fuck about what clothes are on my back, what car I drive, what my house looks like, because I just don't give a fuck about how people perceive me. Actually let me rephrase, I don't give a fuck about how people perceive me; except for those I consider important in my life. How does this apply to friendship? Well it's simple really, I don't particularly care what people think of my friends and whether they 'approve' of my friends' "appearance". I'm always going to defend the mates that I have because I value them a lot, which sadly a lot of humans don't know how to do; value their friendships. Now by all means I'm not perfect, I've made mistakes before both in my personal life and with regards to my friendships, but I think I've learned a lot over the course of my teenage life and can say that I believe I am now a good friend to everyone that truly deserves my friendship. 

Another thing that really annoys me is when people give up on friendships so easily. I have literally had a blew of some sort with every single friend that I currently have today, but that doesn't mean I just gave up on any of them because it's "hard" or "they don't do anything for me". Friendship is a two-way street, just because someone may not do a whole lot for me doesn't mean I don't a fair bit for them and therefore I value that friendship. I just think that some people (some friends included in this list) cut people off way too often because it's "too hard" or "doesn't benefit them". Doesn't benefit them? Really? Are we as humans so selfish and self absorbed that just because a person doesn't do much for them that we can't externally see that perhaps we as individuals do something for them? Perhaps we're a benefit of theirs even if they aren't for us? If everyone had that piss-poor, self absorbed attitude, then we wouldn't have gotten really far as a human race up until the present and would probably all despise each other!

As I said, I have had some kind of argument or fight with every single person I consider a friend today, but I haven't cut them out of my life for one simple reason; I care. I've had friends who I have had to take a step back from and say wait a second, you're being a fucking douche change your attitude! However I haven't completely deserted them because I know they're good people. I have also had a friend who I wasn't friends with for a year and a half and we reconnected and are now great friends again (even though sometimes I feel he/she is a bit pessimistic and is probably reading this right now, to which I say eat a dick because it's true, stop focussing on things you can't control and focus on the things you can). I have a mate who moved away who calls me almost daily which puts a smile on my face because I know he misses home and cares, I also have another mate who moved away and for a while I was being an absolute dickhead too but we are finally starting to reconnect again and I have a friend who I didn't speak to for nearly 2 years and we (up until recently) reconnected until they, in my opinion, decided to cut me off for selfish reasons (read above, "doesn't benefit them"). However I am proud to call my mates my mates and not only am I stoked with the new and old friends I have, but am happy with the people in my life I consider 'acquaintances' as well. I feel there are a few friends/acquaintances that I have that will only talk to me when I talk to them and some whom blame me for a deteriorating friendship (once again, read above "Friendship is a two-way street) but ultimately I'm happy, I just hope I'm a good friend to my friends! Because if I'm not I'll go out the back and smack my head against a brick wall for a few hours (compliment me guyzzzzzzz I NEED ATTENTIONNNNNNNNN).

So yeah, short and sweet, a bit all over the place. That's my blog for ya!

Decided to update! Few topics, let us jump straight in (like Meade does with fat slutes).

Birthday: So my 21st was just recently and I had such a great night, it's the first time I've had all of my friends and family together in one location so I must say it was pretty sweet! Good to see my younger cousins and all that getting involved with my mates and stuff too, also really good to see people put their differences aside for the night and have fun! I was a bit disappointed that I didn't get to go around and talk to everyone for a while but that stuff always happens at birthdays if it's your own; so I'm sorry but I couldn't do much else! Also feel kinda bad for the people who I didn't get to invite, but you don't want my mother raging under any circumstance so yeah! A group of friends put together to get me a new Samsung Galaxy III 4G phone which is sick (considering I was rocking brick phones for so many years!) and I'm stoked they went to that effort! Also stoked out on the whole costume idea, it was a late idea and people went to crazy depths to pull off some outstanding looking costumes! Some made me laugh, others made me smile and some I was in pure awe of. But yeah, successful night, along with the special interviews we did (coming soon) and I'm glad everyone showed up, as I've said previously the presents were awesome but what's more important is that people showed up and had a positive attitude. Love you all (yes, in a completely homosexual way, oh how hell awaits the...)

Podcast: So we're into about our 12th week of the podcast (CNTS: Cudgee News Talk Show) and we've had plenty of special guests so far and some crazy fun challenge but I have a feeling it's just going to keep on getting better and better. Some people don't like the idea, some think it's a waste of time; but I am not concerned. I love being able to say shit yeah it's Wednesday night time to talk shit and have fun with my friends! We've got some mad updates coming really soon, some crazier ideas than we've ever had before and we want people to approach us and give us ideas and hopefully listen to the show! So if you haven't heard it, add us on Facebook or type in 'CNTS Episode 1' into Youtube and go from there, might not be your cup of tea but what's the harm in chucking a listen.

Alcohol/Cannabis: I have decided to cut back on my alcohol intake for a few reasons, firstly for health benefits, I'm currently trying to lose some fat and gain muscle (because I have put on so much weight since high school I'm a fat shit now) and alcohol will only inhabit my chances of doing so. Secondly I'm trying to base my decisions in life around logic, reason and my own personal faith in things; essentially alcohol does not allow you to make intelligent decisions. Thirdly I'm over the culture, I'm over people thinking it's ok to go and get fucked up each weekend and that's what life is all about. I see life as an adventure in which I want to make memories that I want to REMEMBER. Fucking sluts and making money means nothing, absolutely nothing it is nothing but hollow bullshit that people push across. Go and read more books, draw, travel, study and most importantly fucking think for yourself. Don't allow substances to control you. Now this is where I use my epic English skillz to transition into talking about cannabis (BY LITERALLY NAMING WHAT I'M GOING TO DO). OK so I just want to say something to all those people out there that think Cannabis is bad; do your own research. Don't listen to what you've been TOLD, don't listen to what you think could maybe be right, go out and research and you'll open your eyes. If you go and do this and still think negatively about that it's fine, I just find it a bit odd that people have negative opinions about things they know literally nothing about themselves, but I guess we have all fallen into that category in stages of our lives. So many misconceptions pushed across..... when realistically Cannabis will never kill you. Yet cigarettes and alcohol kill millions per year. It's just right there, the information is right in front of you.
TV Shows: Gotta start watching Justified and Friday Night Lights, gotta finish watching The Walking Dead and start watching Thrones. LOOOOOOOOOSE

Sport: GO BOMBERS NUF SAID #YOLO

Grudges/Hatred: Don't really know what other words to use to start this one or to sum it up but here goes ha! I won't name any names on this blog because I think it's not my place but I just wanted to write down some stuff about particular people. So recently over the past couple of weeks I was able to get on a 'neutral' state with someone who for a very long time I thought hated me, I was able to contact said person and apologised for my previous mistakes and all that jazz and it was accepted. After a short conversation there was no hatred, it truly was an amazing experience to be a part of and I'm extremely grateful. Since that date I have probably said a few things I shouldn't have, but the important thing is to learn from your mistakes and constantly better yourself as a person (well that's my belief anyway). I hope we can get back to a neutral state or perhaps one day a different state, who says I'm not allowed to dream! So anyway that person also gave me the hint that I should try to reconnect with another past friend of mine, to which I was also able to do. I guess over the past year I have really had to discover myself and who I am and I had to step back from many friendships, I'm trying to bridge that distance back again and I promised myself that I would never allow a good friendship to die. If you get given another chance you'd wanna bloody well make up for it! Hence why I have given out chances to particular friends who I feel can grow and develop into wonderful friends and I have also been given chances! I'm definitely at the right place in life now, I'm still trying to better myself daily and that but I definitely can say that for the first time in my life I'm always looking to put others ahead of myself (unless in an intoxicated state, alcohol really is poison). Thank-you to the person that gave me the opportunity to be at a neutral state and thank-you for not hating me (although I may have fucked that up, I hope not). Thank=you to the old friend of mine for understanding what I had to go through to become who I am today, I'll do everything in my power to ensure it doesn't happen again. Thank-you to the friend who took my advice on becoming a more positive person, it's going to be a hard ride but trust me you'll get through it and develop into an incredible person. Also thank-you to my bb for writing a blog piece about me, an entire piece about me I feel privileged to not only know you but be a part of your life.


I'm sorry I didn't write more, but Thrones and Walking Dead awaits me! Till next time,

INFINITE BLISS INFINITE LOVE. x

Keep your mind open.

So it has been a while since I have done a blog piece so I decided to do one! Just recently I had a very stimulating conversation with others on the topic of Christianity and God. I know I mention Religion alot, both on Facebook and I have mentioned it a fair few times on this blog so HOPEFULLY this will be the last time I mention it on here (although I probably won't stop mentioning it on Facebook) but today's piece will only be loosely based on religion; it will be based more on other topics that are associated with it. I quite enjoyed the debate, as I'm always up for a stimulating intellectual conversation provided I'm not tired!
I'll split the blog up into different sections to make it easier, might be a bit random but oh well. Basically I'm going to talk about my view on specific things, enjoy!

My view on God and 'faith': OK so first of all, I do not deny the possibility of a higher deity being the creator of the universe; whether that be "God" or whether it was a specific type of energy/anything else. I definitely believe that there was some form of creationist who intelligently designed the universe when it was first 'born' into existence and I think that the universe has some of 'brain' not that different to our own. I do not disagree with atheism and its practices, nor do I disagree with religion and its practices at their fundamental core (despite hating on Religion for a long time). What irritates me is when a person says that they are 100% conclusive in their belief that a God does or does not exist. How can a human being such as ourselves possess the ability to know the "absolute truth" about a topic such as whether or not there is a God? I was told by a few Christians that it is their 'faith' that allows them to be 100% conclusive; which still seems extremely illogical to me and my entire fibre. HOW can faith be considered fact? I believe that faith in anything is more 'hope' than 'truth' and will probably believe that statement until my last breath. I am fine with people having hope, I myself have hope in many things and if you don't have hope in something then you are probably an extremely pessimistic and negative person with negative thoughts and attitudes (which is once again fine, I would just prefer to personally not be around people like that as they bring you down). But I'm not going to sit around and pretend that faith is fact; I can't.

Sharing opinions vs. forcing opinions: I enjoy having conversations with someone who has a different view on an opinion than my own, I do not enjoy it however when they're forcing their own opinions without considering my own. That's the beauty of having an open-mind I think, the fact that you can still form your own opinions based off previous knowledge and current research, yet you're completely open to the possibility that you may be wrong or on the right path but just not quite there yet. That's where my main trouble with Christians are, because majority of the conversations I have had with them end up being extremely one-sided. I definitely have my own views and opinions but I will never ever disregard someone else's opinion as 'wrong' or 'unjustified'; something that some Christians are masters of. I did highlight the word 'some' for a reason, it would be a massive stereotype to say 'all' or even 'most' because I don't know that, there are some really good Christian people out there who enjoy having a philosophical debate and will consider my side of the story, something I very much respect in a person.

Positive and Negative energy: "If you have a positive mind-frame towards everything in life, the environment around you will change accordingly". That short quote pretty much sums up the way I feel about this topic perfectly. Think about it this way, have you ever had a day where you wake up in a terrible mood and no matter what happens during that day (if you continually have a negative frame of mind) then nothing good will happen? Or have you ever had a day where you wake up excited for the challenges of the day ahead (positive frame of mind) and that day seems like a great day and you do things you've always wanted to; you've 'knocked the ball out of the park' per se? I know that there are some days where you literally just hate the world, I have hated people at some stages of my life that I have compared human beings to a 'disease'. I can tell you right now that those days were dark and miserable, very lonely. On positive days I feel like I can achieve anything and on those days I get out there and I do as much as possible. Maybe there is a real truth behind the quote...


The "afterlife": This is a tricky topic because I am not solid on my own personal view of what I believe happens in the afterlife; but I do believe in it. You see the thing that I've found is that religious people are so hung up on the afterlife and how good it is going to be, whereas atheists don't believe in the afterlife and prefer to get hung up on the now. Who's right and who's wrong? I don't know. Personally I think they're both wrong and right with regards to specific aspects. I definitely believe that 'the journey' aka our life on this Earth, right now, is extremely important in determining our own afterlives. So I guess that sentence essentially means I agree with atheism with regards to living each day like it's your last, but I do agree with religious people that believe in some form of afterlife. I'll even add my own mix in there, I think that it is extremely important to have a good moral compass and be a good person in this short life that we know. 


I will try to explain what my own personal view of the afterlife is. So basically it all has to do with a little drug called "Dimethyltryptamine" or DMT. Simply put, DMT is a natural drug that is released from the pineal gland within our brains in large portions every night when we are asleep. The interesting thing that I have found is that when human beings are extremely close to death their brains explode with DMT (their is scientific evidence, read up for yourself) and the drug is said to psychedelically produce energy and 'spiritual interactions' with higher beings in a different dimension. 


It is extremely possible that with the release of this DMT our physical bodies are dying or dead but our 'spirits' could be sent into an eternal trance (also known as 'the afterlife) or an infinite dream. There is evidence to suggest that this is true, "The Light" has been described by many individuals who have had near death experiences as well as those who have smoked DMT recreationally, there is some form of correlation between the two. As for people who have actually smoked DMT (which is the most powerful psychedelic known to man by the way), a lot of them have stated that they seen extremely complex geographic patterns or sequences, have seen higher 'deities' (i.e "god", "aliens", "extra terrestrials") and almost all of them have said that they have felt 'reborn' and do not fear death nor do they want to waste any days that they have left on Earth.

Along with this, there is every chance that our own subconscious will facilitate and provide a 'heaven' or 'hell' based on the type of thoughts that we had as a human being. Essentially it means that if you were a good individual with positive thoughts, your afterlife will be an eternal dream of bliss (heaven), but if you were a bad person with negative thoughts then your afterlife will be the opposite (hell). It has been recorded that there is still a decent 5-10 minutes of time where brain activity still occurs after death; perhaps our mind goes into a timelessness state with a spiritual experience attached?

My view on society: OK lets face it, we as human beings are are a terrible race. Look around you, corruption, poverty, famine, lies, abuse, the list goes on... There are some of us that try to change that (to which I have the utmost respect for) and try to change the way that the human race thinks. My view is that we are too individual; there's too much 'me' and not enough 'us'. "We are one world, one mind, one heart. We are all this together, we breathe the same air we live on the same planet. You are the universe". That is the perfect quote to sum up my view on what society should be but isn't (thanks Adrian Fitipaldes). Despite how terrible some of society is today, we can make a change, but it does start at the individual level. Some days I do fall into that hole of 'hating everyone' but look at what the news spurts out each night at 6. Do they EVER talk about anything positive? No. It's always some crap about terrorists or a bad economy or talking negatively about somebody. It's pathetic.

There's a few more topics I could probably cover, my view on money, sex in today's society, friendship (to name a few) but I cannot be fucked, might leave them for another day. Or just sum it up now, money is one of the more purest form of evil, sex isn't something you do with someone you love any more and has lost all meaning as girls these days only want dick and guys only want pussy, friendship is awesome when you have a good group of positive friends at your disposal; hang onto that shit. And that's all from me folks, enjoy your day/night and please refrain from looking up my pictures on Facebook and masturbating furiously over the image of me naked in the shower.

I joke, go for it.

p.s here is a couple videos on DMT and one of Northlane live where Adrian says his magnificent quote (or part of it). I may have added on the "you are the universe" part at the end because I'm brilliant.
