Supersizing Life

And No, This is NOT About McDonald's

I know I said yesterday’s post would be my last one on Superman — but last night, I randomly stumbled upon a video that echoed everything I wrote last week. 

It’s another reminder of how, in modern portrayals, Superman is often pushed into darker timelines and situations that feel completely out of character for the version many of us grew up with. And yes, I know it’s fiction — but to me, Superman has always represented something much bigger: the embodiment of modern-day Christ Consciousness. He’s a model of goodness that humanity can aspire to — not someone distant or unattainable, but a reminder that unwavering virtue is possible within us, too. When we believe in heroes who hold firm to their goodness, we begin to see that potential reflected in ourselves.

In all honesty, I didn’t watch Man of Steel until last week — it came out during a period in my life when I wasn’t watching any film or television for years. As someone who loves stories and cinema, I can say it was a well-made movie. It showed a version of Superman we hadn’t really seen before, with subtle nods to Smallville woven throughout. But as a long-time Superman fan, it felt… off. Henry Cavill is amazing in the role and visually is Superman, but the character I grew up with would never just stand there and let his father die in front of him to preserve his identity. He can literally move faster than a speeding bullet — no one would have seen him save his dad. And that same Superman wouldn’t snap someone’s neck simply because he couldn’t think of another way. That’s just not who he is.

This new era of a brighter, more hopeful Superman — as I mentioned last week — feels like a call from the collective. A signal that the world is ready to believe in something good again. As reality gets darker and more chaotic, I think many of us are secretly (or not so secretly) yearning for a hero among us. Not someone unreachable, but someone who reminds us of who we can be.

That’s why I’ve always linked Superman with Christ Consciousness. He’s not just a superhero to me — he’s a symbol of the goodness we’re all capable of. When portrayed with unwavering integrity, kindness, and hope, he becomes more than fiction. He becomes a model and a mirror. And when we believe in heroes like that, we start to recognize that light in ourselves. We start to remember that we are capable of rising, of protecting, of embodying truth and love in a world that desperately needs it.

Over the past few years, I’ve noticed a quiet but significant shift — more and more people are turning (or returning) to Christianity. To me, this reflects the collective yearning for something greater than ourselves… a return to hope, faith, and meaning in a world that feels increasingly uncertain.

As I’ve mentioned throughout this site, I do believe Jesus existed — not as a distant, unattainable figure, but as a model of what’s possible for all of us. He embodied the kind of divine-human blueprint that shows us how to walk with love, power, and grace. He came not just to save us, but to show us how to save ourselves — how to create Heaven on Earth.

But somewhere along the way, I believe his message was distorted — lost in translation, rewritten to serve systems of control. Much of the original, radical love and wisdom he shared — especially his partnership with Mary Magdalene and their teachings on sacred union — were buried beneath centuries of patriarchal preservation.

The Darkness Is Surfacing — And That’s the First Step Toward Healing

To truly embody that higher blueprint — to create Heaven on Earth — we first have to face the reality of the world we’ve built. And right now, that reality is in crisis.

Climate change is no longer just a distant threat — it’s unfolding before our eyes. Every week, it seems, another devastating environmental disaster ravages a city, a region, a coastline. Wars rage on, displacing millions of innocent people. And the global political stage feels like a crumbling theatre — chaotic, corrupt, and utterly disconnected from the needs of everyday people.

In America especially, politics have become a mirror, reflecting everything that has long been swept under the rug. And it’s not just what’s happening — it’s the fact that more of us are finally seeing it.

I'm not particularly a Stephen Colbert fan — especially after the heavy-handed promotion of the COVID vaccine on his show, at a time when many were still navigating their personal health decisions and the long-term efficacy was still being debated. But the abrupt cancellation of his show shortly after he mentioned a reported settlement between Paramount and Donald Trump doesn’t sit right. For a political party that often champions freedom of speech, it’s troubling to see how quickly dissenting voices or controversial revelations seem to be silenced when they challenge powerful interests. And it makes you wonder - what are they hiding?? Also, this clip below that he's calling "Behind the Stache/Stash", is actual genius.

These moments aren’t just cultural oddities — they are signs of a system desperately trying to maintain control, even as it crumbles under the weight of its own secrets. From hacked muppet accounts to silenced truth-tellers, it’s becoming clear that the powers that be are more invested in hiding the truth than healing what’s been broken.

But here's the thing: we’re not descending into darkness — we’re finally seeing the darkness that’s been hidden in plain sight. But it's up to us to face it head on, and start coming together as a collective in order to affect the future we are stepping into, before we don't have that choice.

So now what?

If the old myths are crumbling — the myths of domination, control, and unchecked power — then what comes next? The beauty is that this is where we get to choose - this is where YOU get to choose. Because beneath the wreckage, a new story is taking root, one where we return to the body, to the Earth, to truth, to tribe, and to transparency.

We urgently need to find common ground across the political divide — to unite in demanding truth, transparency, and the reestablishment of governments that truly serve the people. While we still have a democracy to influence, we must act.

Moving Forward

We can’t unsee what we’ve seen, and although it may not seem like it, that’s the gift. The world isn’t ending — it’s awakening. And the heroes aren’t in capes. They can be found in the following:

• In community kitchens, feeding those in need with love and dignity

• In local farms and permaculture projects, regenerating the earth

• In makerspaces and workshops, crafting sustainable solutions and innovations

• In libraries and mentorship programs, nurturing minds and futures

• In fitness and wellness centers, educating others on movement and health

• In health clinics and healing centers, providing care and hope

• In boardrooms and policy tables, advocating for ethical and just decisions

• In artists’ studios and theaters, telling stories that awaken hearts

• In digital spaces and social media, amplifying marginalized voices and truths

• In schools and after-school programs, empowering youth to lead and create

• In everyday homes, practicing kindness, resilience, and mindful living

• In environmental cleanup crews, restoring rivers, parks, and neighborhoods

• In peacebuilding circles and dialogue groups, bridging divides and healing wounds

• Veterinarians and wildlife rehabilitators working to heal injured animals and preserve biodiversity

• Environmental conservationists, park rangers, and marine biologists protecting fragile ecosystems

• Thrift store owners, upcyclers, and repair technicians helping us break free from throwaway culture

• Permaculture farmers, seed savers, and soil regenerators rebuilding the foundation of food and life

• Social workers, mental health advocates, and trauma-informed healers bringing compassion to broken systems

• Tech ethicists, ethical hackers, and open-source developers protecting digital integrity

• Artists, storytellers, and filmmakers who dare to imagine new worlds and awaken hearts

• Teachers in underfunded schools who show up every day

• Midwives and doulas who bring new life into the world with reverence

• Restoration specialists breathing life back into old buildings, traditions, and ecosystems

• Local community organizers, mutual aid networks, and protesters on the front lines of justice

• Clean energy innovators, solar panel installers, and engineers solving real-world problems

• Librarians, archivists, and knowledge keepers preserving wisdom across generations

• Street medics, harm reduction workers, and public defenders showing up where systems fail

The world’s population has grown exponentially over the past few decades. For instance, in the 1980s, the global population was around 5 billion — today, it has surpassed 8 billion. Some experts argue that the Earth can no longer sustain this level of human activity, and in many ways, they’re right. As our population has exploded, so too has industry and capitalism, accelerating resource extraction and generating mountains of waste. We’ve taken far more than we’ve given back. Yet people continue living as though this way of life is sustainable — but it’s not. This is why some experts are openly discussing population reduction strategies — and that, to me, is the most alarming part of all.

We've overcomplicated life in a way that humanity doesn't have a good grasp on our purpose anymore. There is a whole world in need of help, imagine if every heart, every hand, every soul on this planet was devoted to tending, mending, and uplifting life itself?

Imagine a world where every person, from the very beginning, was given the tools to understand the miracle of their body — how to nourish it, how to wield it, and how to live in harmony with both nature and the nature they are made of.

Imagine a world where we were all born into a loving home, with supportive parents, surrounded by a tribe that uplifted us — where we were free to discover who we truly are and find our rightful place in society.

Imagine a world where each person received an education rooted in curiosity and optimism — where learning was a path toward healing, purpose, and contribution, and where people worked not out of survival, but out of inspiration to make the world a better place.

If all, or even a majority, of the 8 billion people on this planet were supported in this way — to step into the beauty of their humanness instead of the confusion of identity and survival — we would quite literally be creating Heaven on Earth.

And while this may sound like a utopian dream… I believe it’s possible.

That vision — of empowered, supported, radiant human beings — it may be a big dream, but it's what I live for.

I constantly ask the question:“What if we actually built the kind of world we wish we were born into?”

A world where vitality is our baseline. Where education is healing. Where movement and creativity are as essential as food and shelter. Where our connection to Earth, Spirit, and each other isn’t just remembered — it’s honoured.

To me, Opulence Vision is more than a brand or project. It’s a living framework for returning home — to our health, to our joy, and to our true purpose. It’s for those who are ready to step into their own version of Heaven on Earth — from the inside out.

"Supersizing Life" isn’t about consuming more, achieving more, or chasing external validation — it’s about deepening, awakening, and expanding our capacity to truly live. It’s about stepping out of the numb autopilot the modern world often runs on, and instead choosing to:

• Feel more deeply

• Love more boldly

• Think more critically

• Act more ethically

• Heal more completely

• Connect more authentically

  
  

To Supersize Life is to reclaim our humanity — to remember that we are not cogs in a machine, but living expressions of nature, consciousness, and creativity. It’s the radical act of choosing vitality over convenience, truth over comfort, and meaning over monotony.

It’s a call to be fully awake in our bodies, relationships, communities, and choices — to become stewards of life itself, not passive consumers of it.
