Maui State of Mind


I bought a Maui necklace in of all places, Denver Colorado. I bought it because I had just returned from a trip to Maui, where I could not believe that a place like this actually existed. People get up, go surfing, hang out, maybe work a bartending job or at an art gallery and then head out for the night. I'm sure there are professionals there, but really it is all travel industry related. The island is an amazing place in general and in spirituality. There was one night when my friend BioBoy and I went to watch a sunset on 'Little Beach'... (in the picture above, Big Beach is on the right and Little Beach is the cove on the Left) ...it seriously was an enlightening experience and one that made me realize life is beautiful, magical and there is no reason to be so uptight and stressed out. Picture this...the sound of a drum circle, people dancing around and swimming, whales breeching in the ocean (seriously), the sun setting behind Lanai (another Hawaiian island) and realizing that you are sitting on a small island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean...amazing. Therefore when I get stressed or notice myself getting anxious about work or anything, I return myself to my 'Maui state of mind'. I think that you need to have experiences like this in life and thankfully I've had at least one and hope to have many more.
