Mirages On The Journey

"The illusions of our journey are only seen within the minds eye.....
our perceptions are what we believe them to be."  - OJO


Living in the wind.....what bliss it brings!  

On so many occasions I find myself completely absorbed in the moment of time and space while riding -  the sound of roaring pipes, the heat of the pavement and motor, the smells in the air, the feel of the wind on my skin, all put me into a trance of some sort. What is seen is unseen and what is unseen is seen in these moments of illusion.

Keeping my ass on the seat is not always easy and it takes a skillful rider to accommodate a passenger like me...my eyes are always looking for that perfect vision to capture and if it means standing up while on the highway so be it!  I want to be one with the wind and the birds and the earth that surrounds me, the feeling of this exhilaration often creates a madness in me...good madness of course...haha.  As the camera clicks shots of an unknown reality in the wind the most amazing sights are revealed later on and the mirages of the scenery come to life.

And just as the mirage of the road comes to form a tangible reality caught as an image, the mirage of what we live becomes a real force of our journey as seen from within the imagination.  At times all we need to do is think the thought and the reality jumps out in our face, like, Holy Shit Batman!!!! POW - BAM - WHACK, there it is for all to see!!! The illusion we thought we saw was just that, an apparition of the mind and as it turns out, it's exactly what we were seeing all along as a real concept.  Whether we saw it in the mind or in our sight it is truth to the soul. We created it's essence from within.

So, to believe what we see is not relevant, to see what we believe is!!!

Live your beliefs, live it in the wind and love your illusions....ride on!!!
