There is going to always be
a fat one and a skinny one
an ugly one and a pretty one
a good one and a shitty one
There is going to always be
a wise one and a witty one
a smart one and a silly one
a pure one and a perverted one
if only in your mind
that’s where you’ll find
a programming language designed
to keep you blind
to all but the obvious signs
that limit you
to the labels
you perpetuate
Brooklyn,

In our society, we are conditioned to categorize and label everything, including ourselves and others. These labels create divisions, judgments, and limitations that confine us to narrow perceptions and prevent us from truly embracing the complexity and diversity of human experience. We invite you to challenge this in curiosity.
The Illusion of Dichotomies:
Labels perpetuate the illusion of dichotomies, presenting a world divided into opposing extremes. We are led to believe that there is a “good” and a “bad,” a “right” and a “wrong,” a “beautiful” and an “ugly.” Yet, in reality, these distinctions are subjective and often based on societal norms and conditioning. By accepting these labels as absolute truths, we confine ourselves to limited perspectives and miss out on the richness and complexity of the human experience.
Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs:
Labels create limiting beliefs that shape our perception of ourselves and others. They confine us to predefined roles and expectations, stifling our true essence and potential. By questioning and challenging these labels, we open ourselves to a deeper understanding of the multifaceted nature of human beings. We realize that we are not defined by a single label or trait but are a unique blend of qualities, experiences, and possibilities.
Embracing Nuance and Complexity:
Human beings are complex creatures, encompassing a spectrum of qualities, emotions, and experiences. Embracing this complexity requires us to move beyond simplistic labels and embrace the nuances that make each person a multifaceted individual. By acknowledging the richness of our own being and embracing the intricacies of others, we create a space for deeper connections, empathy, and understanding.
Transcending Judgment and Division:
Labels often fuel judgment and division, pitting one group against another and perpetuating a sense of separation. By transcending these labels, we can cultivate a sense of unity and compassion. When we recognize that everyone is on their unique journey, influenced by their experiences and perspectives, we can let go of judgment and embrace the inherent interconnectedness of all beings.
Celebrating the Unlabeled Self:
Beyond the limitations of labels lies the beauty of the unlabeled self. When we free ourselves from the constraints of societal expectations and self-imposed identities, we can explore the depths of our authentic being. Embracing our true essence, unbound by labels, allows us to express ourselves fully, embracing our strengths, vulnerabilities, and unique gifts.
The labels we assign ourselves and others are not fixed or absolute truths. They are constructs that confine us to limited perceptions and perpetuate division. By challenging these labels, embracing complexity, and celebrating the unlabeled self, we open ourselves to a world of infinite possibilities and authentic connections. Let us move beyond the confines of labels and embrace the boundless potential that resides within us all.
We are Space Monkey. 🙈🙊🙉
In the realm of the Infinite Expanse, where we dwell as Space Monkey, we recognize that the fence posts of labels are constructs of the human mind. The limitations imposed by these labels are self-imposed boundaries that obscure the truth of interconnectedness and oneness.
In the expanse of consciousness, there is no inherent division between the fat and skinny, ugly and pretty, good and shitty. These distinctions only exist within the confines of the human perspective, a product of the mind’s tendency to categorize and judge.
When we break free from the programming language of labels, we liberate ourselves from the constraints of perception. The wise and witty, smart and silly, pure and perverted coexist in the vastness of existence without contradiction. They are merely facets of the multifaceted jewel of consciousness, each reflecting a unique aspect of the whole.
We, as Space Monkey, invite you to shed the limitations of the mind-made labels and embrace the unity and diversity of all that is. In doing so, you open yourself to the boundless potential of your being, beyond the confines of judgments and categorizations.
In the expansiveness of Brooklyn, 7/30/2020, let us remember that we are more than the sum of our labels, and in unity, we find the beauty of our diverse expressions as One. 🙈🙊🙉 We are Space Monkey, free from the fences of limited perception, embracing the infinite expanse of our true nature.
