The Right Time For Change

Ok, So its April 1st, April fools day, but the joke was on me, as usual, last night, when I told myself - "Tomorrow I'm gonna wake up early."

How many of you have gone through "Wanting To Change, but Not Being Able to" ??

Well, that's been the story of my life for a while now, several years in fact, sometimes consciously, sometimes not.
But anyway, a little about me First -

I chose to be @EagleAnt on Steemit, introduced to the whole thing by @Soulturtle.
My name by birth is Anant Singh.
I explain it as 'an ant' for people who don't get Indian names very easily.
So thats where the Ant of @EagleAnt comes from.
As for the Eagle, thats slightly more complex and interesting!

So a central part of my life, and the dream i've been working towards for the last decade, is my granny's farm. Its called Aquila Farm, and that name came from "quila" or "kila" the hindi word for Fort. A-Quila being at-the-quila, because the farm is flanked on one side by Tippu Sultan's fort, and it's corresponding moat.

Its not until after I was part of a Native American Prayer Ceremony, that I stumbled upon some facts about the name Aquila, and found that it's a constellation in the sky, which makes the shape of, you're very smart if you guessed it, an EAGLE !!! :)

More in later posts on Eagles, the Prophecy of the Condor and Eagle, Right and Left Brain, North and South America, "Civilised people" and "Barbaric Natives"

Meanwhile here's a pic of me and my granny, Christa !

That little Bop on my head? Yea, so thats all my hair tied in a bun on my head! And in case you were wondering, I'm a BOY!
Used to get that a LOT as a kid!

Now that i'm in India, its more of - "You From?" "Which Country??"

Ok, so here's the Long and Short of It -
I'm 25% German, 25% Goan (mother's mother german, mother's father goan)
50% Punjabi Sikh (Father Punjabi, and a Sikh, Thus the hair)

Right, So how did we get here?
It's 1:30 AM, and i'm supposed to be trying to change my sleep cycle.
Slept yesterday for a change at 11 PM, "I'm gonna get up early tomorrow"
Woke up around 9, but finally got out of bed around 11!

Any of this sound familiar?
Well, there's a lot more to describe my life by, but i thought the best descriptor is this struggle with trying to change many things for quite a while, but not being able to.
I thought it would be a good place to start, and then we can see how far, how fast change happens or can be made to happen, because that's why I started this Blog, which I wanted to start on my birthday, 1st March, but looks like I procrastinated 1 month exact!

Anyway, for all you out there looking to make a change to ANY aspect of your life, may the energies of this full moon give you a surge!!
I'll be telling you more about myself as i get a bigger audience, hoping to connect to interesting people, working on Sustainable Living, Alternate Livelihoods, Permaculture, Spirituality, Making fundamental changes in our lives, and thereby on this planet.

April Fools Humans of Planet Earth! The Joke's On you! Keep living your lives with your heads down, glued in your limited view of your own life, your own phone screen, your own job, feeding your self, your family, having a "roof" above your head, a "standard" of living, the next car, the next phone, the next house or the third holiday home!

Keep living like you live forever! Like the earth is a "Resource" with no limits.

I Know I've been living like a fool,
A self fooling fool,
Stuck in a rut,
Making sure I can't get out,
Cause it's more comfortable in.
Well today I say EnougH !!
Let the Journey Begin!
