Behind The Scenes Gratitude at SpiritSentient

Posted by on Aug 26, 2009 in Appreciation, Personal Growth, SpiritSentient.com | 3 comments

I’d like to take a moment to give some praise to some people who’ve been strongly instrumental and influential with SpiritSentient and whom I’d love for the world to be more aware of.

For awhile they’ve been tucked away in the People Behind SpiritSentient page, but I’d like to expand on that.

Adam Potts

– A brilliant creator, Adam’s extremely proficient in many disciplines and he’s often off at some course or another, expanding his horizons. He’s a key investor and huge reason SpiritSentient Evolved Clothing has debuted so strongly. Thanks so much Adam.

Arthur Hung

– Arthur is an amazing, wonderful, energetic soul with a pure heart. He helps everyone, all the time, and is vital in spreading the word and growth of SpiritSentient. He’s inspired heavily SpiritSentient’s site, blog, clothing, artwork, growth, development, and vision.

Bella Agronik

– Bella’s attention to detail is key, as she voraciously tackles every word/image/detail on SpiritSentient.com and makes sure it’s pristine, clear, and up to par. She also provides me with personal style upon personal style, as an awesome jeweler.

Mohamed Farah

– A powerful force in the community, particularly in Rexdale, Mohamed is all about helping the next generation, and all the time, input, ideas, and vision he’s contributed have been beautiful.

Greg Wheeler

– Hipness consultant. Greg’s designed a shirt or two, and helped with the soon-to-be released Evolved Clothing Packaging. He’s also featured in a rock-climbing video (and a soon-to-be sequel), and offers his chilled-out, laid-back, completely worry-free vibe at all times. Catch photos of him climbing and in Sunday Sports.

Frank Peluso

– Another man of many talents, Frank’s most visual (and impressive) contributions include his amazing photography. His eye for capturing beautiful moments is incredible and they can be seen in some SpiritSentient Inspirational Videos.

Jeremy/JD/The Gang at Astro

– OMG… the people at Astro Printing are like… the greatest printers ever. I love them. Jeremy runs a record label, that commissioned this artwork: Electric Blown and Blessed, and he may be releasing a brand new eco-friendly, unique-dyed fashion tee, and I for one, would love for that to happen. He’s also written a guest article, which you can see here.

Jay Lushington

– An unbelievably talented php/flash/c/html/java/etc coder, technology visionary, and all around amazing person, Jay’s been on-board ‘since the beginning’ and always makes time in his schedule for SpiritSentient. It’s wicked. Check him out at MassiveNuMedia.com

Tori Mongrain

- Tori, Tori, Tori :) A bundle of pure ecstatic happy blissful appreciative grateful energy. Whenever SpiritSentient does anything, in anyway, she’s all over it. She’s connected many, and brought all kinds of opportunity and joy. She may be helping expand Evolved Clothing into Evolved Lingerie (yes, I’ve always loved lingerie. A lot. And so does she!) – She’s featured in Tori Mongrain’s Fun Yoga video, and participated in Sunday Sports.

Rossana De Angelis

– A tremendous force in the culinary world, Rossana is a relatively new addition, resident chef at SpiritSentient, and we love her tons. Food is such a sublime experience and so integral to our society (and physical existence), and she pursues it with a passion. She aims at having everything eco-friendly, slow-food, delectable-variety, and she succeeds. She’s huuuuge on vegan/gluten-free stuff as well, and more of her can be seen at chiliandfennel.com (soon-to-be redone c/o yours truly :D ) or you can watch this awesome Chili And Fennel Video – Delicious Rabbit in Wine. Bam.

Whew…
Now, SpiritSentient touches many lives, and is touched by even more, and this next section is to thank and appreciate everyone else’s equally important contribution. Some of you have bought shirts, or come out to artshows, or treated us to meals, or sent love, or just briefly thought about us… and everyone of us has a part and a purpose to play, and I love expressing gratefulness for that. Thank you all so so much for your love and support, we all become better through each of you.

I feel so happy :)

Not So Random Appreciation

Posted by on Jul 23, 2009 in Appreciation, Awareness, Personal Growth, SpiritSentient.com | 4 comments

I’m grateful for life. I’m grateful for everyday I’m alive. I’m grateful for every breath, I’m grateful for all the beautiful people: family, friends, strangers, everyone. I’m grateful for all the connections I’ve made and the amazing people I’m blessed to associate with. I’m grateful for every piece of music, or work of art, or simple conversation that people share. I’m grateful for all the amazing ideas and visions from everyone around. I’m grateful for everywhere I”ve lived, for everywhere I will live. I’m grateful for everything I’ve created, and everything I will create. I’m grateful for compliments, and I’m grateful for criticisms (I generally prefer to hear compliments). I’m grateful for all the expansion and growth SpiritSentient has experienced and I’m grateful that there’s more on the horizen. I’m grateful that I can repeat the phrase “I’m grateful, over and over”. I’m grateful that you’re still reading it. I”m grateful for every opportunity to travel and meet new people and I’m grateful for every chance to stay home with familiar faces. I’m grateful for wonderful food, financial freedom and fun relationships. I’m grateful for the rapid evolution of technology, facebook, youtube, blackberries, etc. And I’m grateful that I can walk, cellphoneless through the forest and parks scattered throughout Toronto. I’m grateful that I learn so fast and I’m grateful that I’m able to help others do the same.

Thanks everyone :)
