@babyporooce You know we do, you tease. 🙄

Do men find this attractive?

@hello_heso 素晴らしい体型だ！本当に最高ですね。

カッコよく魅せるんだ

Kauaʻi in the morning before the trade winds pick up is one of the only places I’ve felt something close to silence. Not absence of sound — more like the world holding its breath. #kauai #hawaii #lexwhite #aloha #islandlife

Matter arises from consciousness. Consciousness does not arise from matter. Most of what we call science is downstream of that error.

My dad played banjo. He died alone in 2015 and I found out while working a 14-hour shift. You carry things for a long time before you know what to do with them.

Actually 100% clueless. We have no idea what is going on in your mental world. You should stop assuming men understand anything about you, and just be straightforward, direct, honest, ask for what you want, tell him what you need. He's in his world and you're in yours. Reach out.

Do you boys purposely ignore hints Or are you actually clueless?

この道の先に何があるか、知っている。 でも毎回、初めて歩くように感じる。 老子が言った——「千里の道も一歩から。」 今あなたが踏み出そうとしている一歩は何ですか？🌺 #ハワイ #lexwhite

「意識は物質から生まれるのではない。物質が意識から生まれる。」——私たちが科学と呼ぶものの多くは、この順序を逆にした上に成り立っている。あなたはどちらが先だと思いますか？

デカルトは「われ思う、ゆえにわれあり」と言った。意識の存在だけは疑えない。ならば、物質と意識のどちらがより根本的か——答えは意外と明白かもしれない。

猫がセットリストの上で寝ている。これはコメントではなく、哲学的声明だと思う。🐱 #lexwhite #ねこ #音楽

エピクテトスは言った：「人を傷つけるのは出来事ではなく、出来事に対する見方だ。」 2000年前の言葉が、今の自分に刺さる。 スマホを見るたびに思い出したい言葉だ。 あなたが最近、見方を変えたら楽になったことはありますか？ 🌿 #哲学 #lexwhite

"No matter what I do, this thing keeps showing up." If that sounds familiar — it might not even be yours. Linseed Fae breaks down why unresolvable patterns are often loyalties to ancestors we never met, and the moment she finally found something that created *lasting* change. How many of your 'personal' struggles are actually inherited ones? 🎙️ Love of Mysteries Ep. 3 #LoveOfMysteries #lexwhite

Epictetus: the only thing truly yours is your will. Everything else is on loan. That's either terrifying or deeply freeing, depending on the day.

Rumi wrote poems for a man named Shams-i-Tabrizi. Scholars argue about the nature of that love. Rumi didn’t argue — he wrote 40,000 lines of poetry and then spent years looking for Shams after he disappeared. Whatever it was, it made him. That’s the only useful thing anyone has ever said about love, and it was implied. 40,000 lines. Not one of them: ‘We were just friends.’ Has something — or someone — ever made you more than you would have been without them?

Spent 10 minutes tuning the banjo before a gig once. Old timer in the front row leaned over and said "son, that instrument will never be in tune." He wasn't wrong. Played the best set of my life anyway. Perfection is overrated. Ship it.

Phat Music Lab at ʻAwa Hale. Jazz-fusion, live, no apologies. Check them out at phat.band "My mind works along without the control of the senses. Falling back upon first principles, I glide through joints and cavities as they exist, not as they ought to be." — Zhuangzi "Music gives color to the air of the moment." — Karl Lagerfeld 📍 Kapaʻa, Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi #kauai #hawaii #lexwhite #livemusic #jazzfusion #openmic #awahale #localmusic

I know that God loves us because God gave us grapes.

Planning a bluegrass tour in Japan. 🪕 I play banjo and guitar on the island of Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi — weaving together ancient wisdom from Stoic philosophy, Lao Tzu, Rumi, and scripture. If Japan will have me, I'll bring it all. 今年、日本でツアーを計画しています。カウアイ島からバンジョーと古い知恵を届けに行きます。東京、京都、どこへでも。会いに来てください。 Who should I talk to? オススメの会場・フェスを教えてください！ #ブルーグラス #BluegrassJapan #lexwhite

Spent the morning trying to remember a chord progression from last night. Still haven’t found it. That’s either a loss or a lesson — I’m not sure which yet. #guitar #songwriter #kauai #lexwhite
