Hello, my friends,

I’m writing this blog (which will be accompanied by a ‘vlog’) because yesterday I made a change. A change that was a long time coming. I deleted my Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter accounts.

Some might say, ‘so what’. Some might say ‘Why Dan?’. I’ll address the latter.

“I’M DONE!”

I can no longer take the rhetoric that’s simply disguised as hatred and divisiveness. Even though I used my platforms mostly for sharing my message of Oneness, I still made the decision to walk away from those sites. The only social media platform that I’ll continue to use is YouTube. That is where I’ll continue to share my music and message in many forms (music videos, podcasts, ‘LIVE’ episodes, and vlogs). So, that is where I’m hoping you’ll continue to follow ‘That Oneness Guy’ as we move forward. So, you know, here’s the link:

You’ve heard me say many times that Oneness coincides with The Law of Attraction. It does so by means of the energies and vibrations that we emanate. With our world, currently overflowing with negativity, hatred and divisiveness, it’s really hard to find positive energies, let alone enough to share back into the universe. That’s pretty much the reason why I stopped watching the news some time ago. There’s nothing good on it. And recently, that’s what spilled over into the world of social media. All I’m seeing and experiencing are lines being drawn. Lines between co-workers, between friends, and even between families.

The message I’ve been sharing since the start of the pandemic has remained the same as it is today. And that is,

‘How you process this will determine your outcome’

For no matter what position you take on the pandemic, or most recently the latest rash of racism, if your thoughts and opinions are causing you stress, anguish, hatred, or fear, you’re only damaging yourself. Oneness teaches us that we can only control our own thoughts. Those thoughts, no matter if they’re deemed good or bad in nature will be what we share with the universe. And since the universe is one with the Law of Attraction, it acts like a mirror and sends it right back to us. This is why I left those specific social media sites. 9 out of every 10 posts have something to do with the problems in the world that we’re all facing. There’s no escaping it. I started to feel like no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t emanate thoughts from a place of peace and Oneness. If you can, all the power to you. My spiritual journey is still an ongoing learning experience. But I know enough to realize when my thoughts and feelings don’t serve my higher good (or the collective consciousness). So, I move away from such energies. It’s not that I don’t care, it’s quite the opposite. I fully understand that if I don’t think and feel good, then I can’t change the collective narrative of fear that surrounds our world. Let me ask you something.

Do you think the events regarding racism just happened?

No, they did not. They’re a direct correlation to the collective consciousness of fear that has engulfed our world since the start of the pandemic. When you understand Oneness and the ways that our vibrations and energies affect our world, you see this with complete clarity. That’s why the riots were of no surprise to me. And let me tell you this. If our collective thoughts don’t change for the better, we’ll be in for more of the same.

This is why I’m saying ‘Sayonara, Social Media’. I know that to initiate change in our world, it has to start with each of us individually. Remember, it doesn’t matter what side of a debate that you’re on. If you let your thoughts of that topic affect you negatively, you’re only hurting yourself, and in turn our world collectively. CHOOSE WISELY.

In Oneness,

Danny

Are you as baffled as I am? I sure hope so. Because we just spent the last 3 months living in self-isolation, some in quarantine, most of us jobless and all of us dealing with the latest catchphrase ‘social distancing’ whenever we leave our homes. This was, and still is the way of life that has been forced upon us no matter what your beliefs regarding COVID-19 are.

Talk about change!

I know that there are a small minority of folks out there who are ‘fine’ with this (hopefully), temporary way of life, but I have to believe that most of us are still trying to find our way within it. I also have to believe that most of us can’t wait until it’s OVER! And by ‘over’, I don’t mean standing six feet away from the next person ordering a drink at the bar. And I don’t mean passing someone on the street who is still wearing a facemask.

I MEAN OVER!

So, it’s you that I want to address. Those who, like me are praying for the day when we get back to normal. The ‘real normal’. The Pre-COVID normal. These past months have been a strain on all of us. I’m not going to get into a debate on whether or not the pandemic was a hoax or not. Or if you believe that we should have reopened our country sooner. That’s not the intention of this blog. I just want us all to take a moment to reflect on the way our lives have changed because of this pandemic, no matter what your belief on the issue is.

We have all experienced a dramatic change in our lives!

So, then we witness an atrocity on the news. A murder in plain sight. A man pleading to a police officer who has his knee jammed into the man’s throat, and he cannot breathe. The man who subsequently died from this injury is black, and the police officer is white. We have seen this story play out far too many times in our recent history. So, as we are all trying to process yet another incident that takes our breath away. One that crushes our very soul. What do we do? How do we as a society respond? Can you blame those who scream out in rage over this? Absolutely not. Many of us say that it goes beyond being a ‘black lives matter’ issue, because all lives matter, and that is true. BUT. Not all lives have to deal with these issues ever, if at all.

I have never had a knee to my throat, literally or figuratively.

So, because of that, I don’t feel I have the right to say that ‘All Lives Matter’ in the context of this latest incident. So, how does society respond? What measures can we take that will finally put an end to such acts? My first response and the response of many I’m sure is to have what they call a ‘peaceful protest’. And when I entertain that notion, I laugh. I actually LOL! I’m 59 years old. I was very young when Dr. King walked the streets for racial equality and justice. He held peaceful protests, as have millions of others since then. But let’s be honest.

Have ‘Peaceful Protests’ changed anything at all over time?

ABSOLUTELY NOT! I believe that the plight for racial harmony and justice has fallen purposely on deaf ears. I don’t think that peaceful marches and protests do anything to help the bottom-line cause and as a human, that shames me. It’s a fucking embarrassment that in 2020 we still have to deal with such issues. It pains my very soul. But what pains me, even more, are the actions of those who choose to loot and destroy. These individuals take advantage of an atrocity like a man being murdered to create havoc. They don’t do it in honor of George Floyd. They’re vandalizing society and damaging this man’s legacy. AND FOR WHAT? To raise awareness? The only awareness acts like that raise shows that they are animals. What about the store owner who had a hard enough time getting through a COVID shutdown, only to have his store looted and demolished? Are they assuming that this owner had something to do with George Floyd’s death? That store owner most likely had as much sympathy over the situation as anyone. And now look at what he’s left with. Seriously, WHAT THE FUCK?

So, I guess the Pandemic wasn’t enough.

Dealing with all that the pandemic forced upon our way of life really wasn’t enough to be concerned with. Seeing and realizing the loss of a man for no reason wasn’t enough either. We now have to deal with chaos, mayhem, and fear in our cities and towns across America.

I really hated writing this blog. It tugs at my soul, and not in a good way. As much as I talk and preach about Oneness, this world of ours makes it more difficult with each passing day. To that I’d like to say ‘Fuck you very much’, but I won’t. Because for each and every asshole out there taking the law into his or her own hands and destroying personal property, there are millions of us out there who hold on to the fabric of humanity. For as Dr. King said:

“Hate cannot drive out darkness. Only love can”

Love is the fabric of humanity. And love stems from Oneness. The knowing that we are inherently connected at our very core as both physical and spiritual beings. We’re out there! You know who you are and I give thanks to you every single day. So, as agitated as I’ve just become, I’m over it. I can’t harbor the anger these cowardice incidents make me feel. It doesn’t serve me in any way, shape, or form. I know who I am. I know what I am, and I remain steadfast in the words that Dr. King bestowed upon us all. Because that remains our only solution.

In Oneness
