Hmm ok so it’s the day I start to blog and write stuff. The Million dollar question is what, where, how, what… I’m not a writer or a author or a very good English person like some of my friends…
Asked my buddies group on suggestions for naming my blog and when I put the idea to them about Lifegasam I got a immediate ‘NO’ from one buddy and the rest kept quite as usual I guess they are bored about my idiotic views and opinions. But anyways I was convinced by a post I read on our answers machine for every question we have ya ya in coming to the name of it “Google” gave me a interesting post, will talk about it in a while.
OK lemme not bore you on day one by talking too much. Lemme tell you why did I choose my blog name as “Lifegasam”.
I found in a page by Sherry Fetzer. Below is the text about Lifegasam in her words. (small changes to the text here and there to match my understanding after reading it).
“If you’re thinking, “Really…what is a lifegasm?” Start by identifying a meaning for the word “Life”. It has many definitions; one I really like is: ‘The force that makes or keeps something alive’. Life is correlated to a capacity for growth. Other synonyms of life include spirit, effervescence, or sparkle.
The term “gasm” is, of course, derived from the word orgasm. The origin stems from the Greek word “orgasmos” meaning “to be excited”. I encourage you to look beyond the sexual connotation and focus on the aspect of channeling positive and exciting energy that requires being in the moment.
Think of “gasm” as an intensity of pleasurable feelings and excitement. When people are having fun and in touch with intense pleasurable feelings, it opens up channels of creativity and communication. People feel more confident and free to express themselves. Fun eliminates barriers.
I define “lifegasm” as the force of keeping intense pleasurable feelings alive with spirit and effervescence. Lifegasm is all about having fun and not taking ourselves too seriously (or anyone else for that matter). Lifegasm are those moments that we feel intense excitement for life. They are about living IN the moment and really appreciating everything the “now” has to offer. After all, our “nows” are what ultimately build our lives.
The truth is, lifegasm can be found almost anywhere if you are open to seeing them. You can find them in the moments when you just cannot hold back your laughter or when you feel bubbles of inspiration. It’s in those bursts of creativity to write a poem or even start a new business, as well as in those moments when you can’t hold back the tears of joy or appreciation; those exhilarating moments when you step into faith to play a bigger game in your life. Lifegasm is about tuning in to yourself and BEING who you are in your deepest and most authentic sense.”
And here I declare the grand opening of my Blog “Mylifegasam” and welcome to my world in my words.
