Living Your Dream, Not Someone Else's

In the personal research I have done in writing this book, I lived and saw the effects of stress and loss and fear while learning the importance of self-control, self-awareness, and connectedness. The men I have lived among behind bars in prison have taught me lessons that they don’t realize they are teaching me. It’s what I most needed to know. Besides them, there are those few family members and friends who have supported me and have kept my hope alive for living my own dream come true. Yes, at this moment I am inking (with pen) these words into a composition journal from a prison cell, where the words will next find their way to typing and editing then to publication. I can see my work one day being in your hands. I’ll be honest in saying that I didn’t write this book as being an acclaimed spiritual guru, only as a man who has always been searching for what the world could not teach me. My expertise does not prevail from years of contentment and having things fall my way, but actually more so from being an individual who always sought for goodness of heart in myself and in others, while having my own share of errors. My thoughts extend to you in the form of these words from a man who talked himself down from many emotional ledges. In prison, every moment is a struggle just to keep the chains of oppression unlocked. Leo Tolstoy wrote that “Each time of life has its own kind of love.” At this time in my life those who are behind me are my true riches. Margaret Mead once suggested that the deepest dream coming true for humans is to have someone who cares that we make it home safe. I recall an old grocery store owner serving a sentence of thirty years to life, for a murder he says he did not commit. He’d already served thirty-three years when attending a parole board hearing. They gave him a definite release date of twelve more years, and he was elated. A dream come true just knowing he had a release date to look forward to. His toothless smile with gray whiskers told me his children will be pleased. He was now seventy-six. Those of you that know me understand how grateful I feel, in here, for only having to deal with the simple securities violation that landed me ten years by an “example-setting” judge, of which I’ve been told I will not fully serve. I cannot fathom an entire life in prison. Could you? These men mostly of who serve life sentences that I live among have given me high expectation of myself that I want to extend on to you. It is what A Course in Miracles calls “The power of turning any situation that is not of love back into love, by thinking differently.” Every day an urge inside me suggests what I need to do, which is to be fully present and to patiently not waste time. I want every moment of time while in here spent writing, studying, exercising, or being helpful. My time in prison is almost over and for that I am thankful. During this brief time—a pit stop, so to speak—the voice within me suggests I see things this way: Life goes on, so I’ve decided that as long as I am living I might as well live.
SON TO FATHER TO SON
Can an unkept promise with your son and his questions take you on a roller coaster, fun filled, yet a deep hitting ride? Rajeev is a typical husband, father and son in his personal life. In his professional life he is a typical office goer, a mediocre performer, working hard yet not moving ahead in career. He lives his life by the rules of the jungle, either hunting or dodging an attack. This is the journey of transformation of Rajeev from a hunter to a seeker. His partner in this journey is his father who had given up on him long back. As Rajeev implements the teachings from his father, he encounters very hilarious yet life changing moments. When challenged by his son, Rajeev makes a connection between his current mediocre life, his mediocre grades in school and everything in his life. He remembers that his father used to slap him every time he used to get average marks, urging him to study and be the best. The last that he remembers from his father are the words when he stopped slapping him, “Life does not exist in decimals, it exists as zero or one”. This is the story of Rajeev becoming what he was born to be- Rajeev, himself.
