ABOUT PROJECT 7-16

   

Project 7-16 stands for Sunday 16. Sunday is for the seventh day and also my nickname, and 16 stands for licenced driver. Sunday 16 is the way I live my life and my life philosophy.

   

When i was a kid in the 80's, one person in the house worked, there was one car (not more was needed cuz ppl did things locally, walked to school, the store, the park was down the street and used, your friends were your neighbours and those that were'nt lived just a few blocks over and not a few cities over, there was one TV and not much good on it (except Transformers, whats changed, lol) and almost everything was closed on SUNDAY. People had *TIME* to spend WITH other PEOPLE and not on stress or work (work sucks and most jobs/businesses are wastefull and pointless, jobs are the most in-efficient ways of getting something done, mass production makes things cheap - mainly in quality, labours of love are awesome), cartoons, people went camping, flew kites, went fishing in the non-polluted creek by the house, did recreational things, invited the street over for a pool party, people things, mainly on Sundays - even tho my life was'nt no where this good (but it was the vision).

   

So when I was about 12, I told myself right there and then that I want everyday of my life to be like a Sunday except that i would have wheels (a car to get around to all the neat places I could not otherwise get to but heard hype about, no one at home who would drive me around), even though I cycled far and wide, Misserysauga to Ajax, to Hamilton, up north, and everywhere else, I basically saw places by getting the odd ride to places like Blue Mountain with my friends family, I wanted to go ferther and to explore everything outside of my cycling zone. To be completely free to do what I wanted and have the ability and resources to accomplish it. 15 came and I had some cash, bought a wrecked car, restored it, drove it without insurance before even getting a licence, and spent great times with great people, done amazing things, seen places, have cherished memories and experiences.

   

So here I am, 20 years later and still living my life as though Im a tween. I loved being in school/camp/colledge/university/bunkers/etc.. cuz of the people and because of the way things are done together, and have always had a similar social life ideal. I went to lectures/classes even though I was'nt enrolled in them, I don't need a piece of paper dictating my value. Id hang out at different schools, party, meet freaky cool people from all over the world, party, play, have lil adventures in new places with people I did'nt know, party, etc.... try and remember how awsesome school camping trips/ retreats/ weekend field trips were. That's how I want my life to be - ALWAYS, and is how I lead and live it. Bottom line, my time is the MOST presious and valuable thing I have. I don't want to waste it on stupid useless shit like working for $$$$ or spending it in traffic. Thats not life, its being alive but not living. I want to spend my time with friends, making new ones, so I do it as much as I possibly can.

   

So Sunday16 is my life philosophy and lifestyle of a nice, simple, innocent life like that of the 50's, with lots of commradery, unity, and community like that of a villiage or tiny town, quality, craftsmanship, freedom, TIME to do what you want (so long as it does not directly or indirectly negativly affect anyone or anything), modern technology, considertness, courticy, doing things cuz you want to and not cuz its financially motivated, freethingking, being freespirted, being respectfull of everything, not worrying about pollitical correctness, use of technology to make things easier and not more complicated and, anything awesome you can think of, basically living life as though anything is possible (cuz it is), money does'nt exist type thing, knowledge is free, everything is free or everyones rich, you have endless potential and are able to do what you want how you want and when you want and not cuz you have to.

   

So PROJECT 7-16 is the place where I will put much of my practices at, and make it available to others, a bunch of my life activities/ ideas/ projects in one shpot. I just want everyone to know its possible (anyone can do it) and it's more than do-able, and I want to share it. Problem is:- people are way to dependant on other things, possesed by their possessions, have no time for what really matters, they are incorrectly conditioned, and worst of all - believe that no other way exists or that there's no way out of their current situations or are too afraid to make benifiting changes (people fear/ hate change, but, change is great when you are the one makeing it, fear is an illusion). If yer interested in learning or knowing more, let me know cuz I love sharing knowledge and experiences. Come join me, hang out, have fun, be free, be yourself, and ENJOY.
