Myth MAGIC Blissful BOOST: Bohemian Rhapsody!






The band QUEEN is practicing for their 1985 Live Aid Performance:

FREDDIE: (Addressing his band members) Before you leave, can I have a second?

BRIAN: Yeah, what's up?

FREDDIE: I've got it.

JOHN: Got what?

FREDDIE: (softly) AIDS.

BRIAN: Fred, I'm so sorry.

FREDDIE: Don't! Right now it's between us. Just...us. So please, if any of you fuse about it or frown about it, or worst of all, if you bore me with your sympathy. It's just seconds wasted. Seconds that could be used making music. Which is all I want to do with the time I have left. I don't want to be their victim.  Their AIDS poster boy. Their cautionary tale. NO! I decide who I am! I'm going to be who I was born to be. A performer. Who gives the people what they want.   A touch of the heavens. 
I'm Freddie fucking Mercury!

ROGER: You're a legend Freddie!

FREDDIE:  You're bloody right I am! We are all Legends! 




Freddie Mercury left us such an outrageous and profoundly authentic template of what a Superhero's Journey can truly look like! By simply allowing yourSELF to BE courageously and unapologetically YOU

His life was NEVER easy.  He was born of Parsi Indian decent. With four extra incisors in his mouth which caused his upper jaw to jettison out from the front of his face. And, of course, he was gay. In a time period in which being labled as a gay man was akin to torturous persecution. His parents moved the entire family to London when Freddie was 18. Further complicating authentic ownership of his SELF image. London circa 1970 wasn't exactly a welcoming "heaven worthy haven" for outcasts.  Just sayin!

And, yet, Freddie Mercury persevered through all his challenges and turned himSELF into an iconoclast! A GOD amongst other rock 'n roll men and woman! His singular vision of the way music could transcend gender, religion, ethnicity, sexual preference, and sear LOVE through the hardest of hearts only grows 30 years after his passing from AIDS. 

He was a true New Age Nerd in every way imaginable! The loving musical "Nerd" in him saw and welcomed the "Nerd" in all others. As fully fleshed out in this small scene from the film:


John Reid: So, tell me, what makes Queen different from all the other want to be rockstars I meet?
Freddie Mercury: Tell you what it is, Mr. Reid. Now we’re four misfits who don’t belong together. We’re playing for other misfits. They’re the outcasts right at the back of the room. We’re pretty sure they don’t belong either. We belong to them.

And forever more, we have all belonged to him! And his story! For the fate of this world will depend on the stories that we LOVE and believe in! The stories that we tell ourSELVES about who we believe WE ARE

So let me ask all you frickinfrantastic New Age Nerds. What are the stories that you are telling yourSELVES about who you are? And equally important, how you believe the world works. Are they resonating in a place of victim consciousness? Where you still believe that "you are what happened to you." Because your father wasn't "always there" you are still playing out the need to feel lovable and worthy in all your adulthood relationships.
Or the cancer that brought you and your family to its proverbial knees was just "not fair."
Tell me how THAT story continues to serve you...............

Or, just like Freddie Mercury, have you transcended those stories and written a brand new Super Heroic Origin Story for yourSELF?! Straight from the Mind Making Script Machine! Where we all create "The Best Selling Book of Our Lives." One that ascends victim consciousness into VICTORIOUSLY HEROIC consciousness.  And instead sees your suffering as no thing less than opportunities to grow, learn, and expand further into KNOWINGNESS! And LOVE! Cause nobody wants to read a script about someone who continues to live in self pity, wallow and shame. BOO! 

Freddie chose to see his challenges as his biggest strengths. His true "Unfair Advantage." (Please read the post on creating a powerful Unfair Advantage if you have yet to do so) He learned to LOVE and embrace his quirks and eccentricities as amazing advantages.  He saw Soulful Strength in every mountain before him. And was ferocious in what he demanded of himSELF and the Universe. That's what all Superheroes do! And as kindred Spirits in this SOUL filled world, we are all so much the better for it! 

So, could it be time for you to refill you own Mind Making Script Machine with a new ink jet cartridge and fresh willowed paper?! And start to re-write your own best selling book. One that ends with you being a LEGEND! Just like Mr. Freddie Mercury.................

BE SUPER HEROIC!

  1. Jeff, thank you for honoring the spirit of this heroic soul. Truly he was. Overcoming the imbalances of his life...continuing to strive for others to hear, not only the pain...but the soul understanding of the Energy of the times, and his compassion for the pain of others. Thanks for hearing that, too. Our joint understanding of that soul, lets us (miles away in matter) honor him together.---Namaste, Brother. Fey
