MAIM TIME hit 10,000 podcast downloads on March 1, 2026! Thank you!

March 31, 2026 marks 2 years since I moved back to the States, to San Diego, California. I have a very special important meaningful episode for you.

Recently, I’ve been going through a personal spiritual journey into the super existential rabbit hole that is Near Death Experiences.

What if I told you... it doesn’t matter what culture, race, ethnic group you identify as. It doesn’t matter what you even believe. Because when you die, your true ultimate identity is infinite pure Love. You are loved past present and future forever and ever beyond infinite time and space.

What would you do? How would you live your life? What would that mean to you?

The TL;DR, or the TL;DL for today is this: it doesn’t matter what your identity is or what your struggle is, what your past is, as long as you become a person who embraces the virtues of humility, gratitude, and kindness. So be humble, grateful, and kind. Kind to yourself, kind to others. When you’re kind to yourself, you can love yourself. You can be free to love yourself, free to love others. And live your best life.

All the wealth and power, grandest accomplishments and exploits, mean nothing if you don't have kindness to yourself and others.

If you want to hear more, just keep listening to the soothing sounds of this MAIM TIME monologue.

"That kindness is invincible, provided it's sincere--not ironic or an act. What can even the most vicious person do if you keep treating him with kindness and gently set him straight--if you get the chance--correcting him cheerfully at the exact moment that he's trying to do you harm. 'No, no, my friend. That isn't what we're here for. It isn't me who's harmed by that. It's you.' And show him, gently and without pointing fingers, that it's so. That bees don't behave like this--or any other animals with a sense of community. Don't do it sardonically or meanly, but affectionately--with no hatred in your heart. And not ex cathedra or to impress third parties, but speaking directly. Even if there are other people around." - Marcus Aurelius

HAPPY THANKSGIVING Y'ALL! I totally forgot to talk about the fundamental idea of Thanksgiving in this episode, what a missed opportunity! Be grateful for all that we have, in spite of all the f'd up origins and backstories of our past.

No matter what our life circumstances are. You have everything you need deep down inside! There's no other way to cheat and get away with it in life than to be grateful.

"For to the one who has, more will be given, and he will have an abundance, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away." - Matthew 13:12

Gratitude is the only way to win. It's what gives meaning to life and will help you in any situation! This combined with the ideals of Marcus Aurelius' Stoicism will make you impervious and unstoppable in mind and spirit.

Thank you!
