I fill myself to the brim with love. Since it is love that I hold, it is love that I have to share with the world.
I don’t accept gifts of anger or hate. If someone is angry with me, I make the choice to let their anger pass through me. I do not internalize it or make it my own. Instead, I smile or laugh or offer up a gift of my energy. And then I go about my day.
How others treat me is their choice and their path. How I react is my choice and my path.
November 29, 2008 at 10:31 am
A path that is self determined and guided by love???
Such an amazing concept….wish there were more people like you Davey…world would be in great shape with love in our hearts.
Much love to you on a gorgeous Saturday!

Those who are loved, love. Love opens the door to things and people visible and invisible.
November 29, 2008 at 11:42 am
I think that is a wonderful path to follow. Hard to get walk through (at least for me).
Thank you for sharing =D
Have a good wekend! ;D
November 29, 2008 at 11:57 am
i agree %100!
and your underwear candle is nothing short of outstanding.
November 29, 2008 at 12:18 pm
Ummmm… okay
Its really hard to tale a sentiment like that with any credibility.
You have a f*ckin holiday candle sticking in your underwear!
Good lord
November 29, 2008 at 1:37 pm
You have to understand though, I do not think he is jusst walking around the house taking random half nude pics of himself with objects. He is trying to express something through this image. It is almost as if he is potraying that light is at the center of his being and light is love, and that everything not of love is passing through and its like his ideas and love is a light unto a dark room. One must look deeper to see past actuality to see true meaning; its like the difference between looking at a musical instrument and then hearing the music that it produces……listen not with your ears but with your heart, see not with your eyes but with your soul, look deeper:)
November 29, 2008 at 1:49 pm
Oooooooooorrrr he just got bored while decorating for the holidays? One of the two. (lol)
November 30, 2008 at 1:53 pm
lmao
think you have broke some illusion
November 29, 2008 at 12:21 pm
>_<
Your words are so inspiring, but hard to follow.
But… life is hard, is it not?
I’m happy to see you’re at peace with the world. It gives me hope.
November 29, 2008 at 10:47 pm
Is life hard? There are a lot of people living pretty easily – even people who are not all that smart or charming or wealthy so I can’t imagine it’s really that HARD to live. But I would agree that we make our lives complicated – needlessly so. The wonderful thing about that is we are in complete control of how complicated or uncomplicated our lives are. It’s just a matter of learning how to transform the context of our lives to empower rather than to constrain. You’ve likely seen the optical illusion drawing that when looked at from one perspective seems to be a vase but from another perspective seems to be two people facing one another. Neither answer is wrong, they are both there and valid depending on the beholder. Consider that when you see something as hard there is another perspective to it that you may be missing. Try to find that other perspective and anything that is hard or complicated can certainly be overcome.
December 1, 2008 at 9:54 pm
I pee in the pool also. If you were my brother I really would like to have sex with you and to love you. When can I see you and one of your handsome friends like Joey having sex???
November 29, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Let it go right through you…sounds good, they say you can also send back inappropriate feelings. Just like you should send back briefs for the square cut boxer briefs.
November 29, 2008 at 10:57 pm
What would make a feeling inappropriate? If someone feels something it seems to me that the feeling is valid and appropriate. It is as real and appropriate to them as any feeling you, as the recipient, would feel. Just because it doesn’t please us or fit into our perspective doesn’t make it inappropriate. Now as far as sending them back, how would that make anything better? You’d be miserable and so would the other person. When Davey says ‘let them go right through you’ it seems as though he is saying let them pass and have no effect on you. Whereas if you reflect them back at the originator you’re just amplifying whatever negative energy that person created. I heard it put brilliantly in the phrase ‘An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.” Let it pass and nobody has to suffer.
November 29, 2008 at 1:33 pm
Nice words.
And nice electric weiner.
November 29, 2008 at 1:51 pm
Nice image. thanks for it. You know, they have battery operated candles.
November 29, 2008 at 2:30 pm
yeaaaaaa rite!! this is really encouraging!! Love your thoughts! xox
November 29, 2008 at 4:06 pm
Hi Davey Wavey!
You are wise! Which is why I’m asking your help.
I want to break away from Catholicism, and not just because of their stand on gaiety.
I need help. YOUR help.
You seem to have developed a spirituality tailor-made for you. I wanna do the same thing.
Thank you!
Johnny D.
-smile-
November 29, 2008 at 11:31 pm
John,
I’m not Davey Wavey but I have some insight on the matter. Consider that there’s nothing to break away from. Church and religion are merely outward signs of a very inward thing – your faith. Consider your relationship with God, however you conceive Him to be, and go from there.
I was raised in a Catholic and Anglican (Church of England) family. I chose Catholicism at about 20 years of age and attended church faithfully. It occurred to me one day that I was approaching my faith from a place that wasn’t working. My relationship with God was one where I asked him for things and he either provided them or didn’t. I prayed for something and if God was pleased with me I’d get it. If he wasn’t pleased with me he’d withold things from me. Clearly this was a dysfunctional relationship but it came from a firm upbringing in the church. I was always taught if you want something pray for it.
The place from which I approach my faith today is a place of gratitude. I believe that God has bestowed on us everything that we will ever need from the time we are born until the time we die. It’s all within each of us. And it’s up to us to realize it and then to use it. Most people never realize it. I am blessed that I have realized it and knowing it has given me the courage and conviction to change the world in whatever small way I can. My prayer life is focused only on giving thanks. I keep a list with me at all times of the things I am grateful for. It’s a LONG list because ever since it started I keep writing things down. When I realize yet another thing I have to be grateful for I add it to the list. The more I have the more I seem to discover and recognize. My relationship with God is no longer like the relationship of young child to parent (i.e., “Can I PLEASE have that???”) but has blossomed into the relationship of an adult child to his parent (i.e., “Thank you for everything you’ve done for me.”)
I took 5 years off from church to sort a lot of things out in my mind – emotionally, spiritually, whatever. Over the past 2 years I’ve really got my s**t together and have this profound peace in my life. My faith has taken on a whole new flavour. And I actually started to go back to church. I don’t know exactly what’s real and what’s not. That is, I dont know what God would have intended our faith to become if anything at all beyond the personal. I have no idea what God really expects of us. But I do love the opportunity to outwardly express my faith in a loving and supportive community which I am fortunate to have. And I don’t believe that my salvation is dependent on my attendance there but rather on my adherence to those 2 greatest commandments that Christ suggests go before all others:
1) Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength;
2) Love your neighbour as yourself.
If you were to hold fast to these 2 commandments, disregarding all the rest of scripture, You’d be leading a life far more Christlike than many of the committed, identified Christians out there. That’s not to say you’d be any better than they are – Just that you’d have found the core of Christ’s message and truly followed it.
Forget what other people think, say, feel and believe. It’s all interpreted through their filters. What do you believe? Define your relationship with God, Live from that definition and know that you are living your faith the purest you can. Let anything that anyone else says or does go right through you. Nobody’s interpretation is any more right, valid or important than your own.
I’ve written a lot here and hopefully you can take something away that fits with where you’re at. If you ever want to chat about faith or spirituality feel free to message me at big_badass@hotmail.com.
November 30, 2008 at 6:21 am
So if it’s God’s Will, who are you to pray for something?
November 30, 2008 at 12:06 pm
I don’t believe God has a specific will for us beyond those 2 commandments. Those 2 encapsulate all of the 10 commandments and beatitudes. But he gives us the leeway to follow them or not. And as I stated above, for me prayer is all about gratitude now. I’ve come to that point where I believe that in the moment God created my essence, He gave me everything that I need to be extraordinary. He created each of us whole, complete and perfect (Not perfect meaning entirely without flaw or sin, but perfect meaning lacking in no essential detail and satisfying all the requirements for being). Believing all this, there is nothing I can ask ot pray for because He’s already given me the tools I need to achieve whatever it is I want to achieve. So for me it’s all about gratitude for what He’s given me. That’s it.
This is, of course, not the truth. I don’t know it as a certainty. And there’s nothing wrong if you agree or disagree. This is only where I’m at and I share it so that if someone sees something in it that they can use they can take it and make it their own. If there’s something they don’t like they can throw that bit away. It’s all about finding out what works for you.
November 29, 2008 at 4:14 pm
A touch of Eroticism greatly helps,
in selling the message.
November 30, 2008 at 2:01 pm

Yes, Jesus has great abs
November 29, 2008 at 6:04 pm
Hey its good to know some one can react to situations with out felling bad or getting angry and its the bestest how you let them know that
ILY DAVEY WAVEY
P.S give me ur email address
November 29, 2008 at 10:36 pm
SERIOUSLY MAN
Haven’t been to your blog in a few weeks, but goodness!
You know, the deepest most meaningful messages get diluted and lose their meaning when said by someone who’s promoting them through soft porn.
Was true when Ana Nicole was doing it, remains true when you’re doing it.
It’s Rhode Island, It’s past Thanksgiving, IT CANNOT BE TOO HOT TO HAVE SOME CLOTHES ON.
I’m not doing this to criticize you, just to let you know that a lot of people would find your behavior just embarrassing. In the same sense that I would never buy self-help book with a naked boy on the cover.
There’s plenty of porn out there, much of it with boys equally hot showing more flesh. Just go put some clothes on.
November 29, 2008 at 11:42 pm
I would argue that the picture has no bearing on the message. If people are put off by a picture it’s their issue to sort out. There is wisdom in the words of the post. I think you’re probably doing this but I’ll say it anyway for the benefit of people out there who might not get it… You may not agree with all parts of a situation. Rather than throwing out the proverbial baby with the bath water, take with you what works for you and leave whatever doesn’t behind.
November 30, 2008 at 4:21 am
I am not arguing about the wisdom of the message, its originality or whether it’s deep or plain cliche.
All I am saying is that the deliverer of the message uses a delivery technique that I dont agree with.
Sometimes I find that gay people accept things that straight people just won’t. Imagine the same situation with a female. Stark naked but a pair of undies, a candle sticking out of them. Would you have the same feelings of respect?
Or do you need to have pecs of steel and a penis for that?
November 30, 2008 at 12:16 pm
Marshall McLuhan told us, way back when, that the media is the message. from that perspective, I can certainly see where you are coming from. But if you can separate the medium from the message – as I’m sure you can – then you get to the heart of it.
I respect that you don’t agree with the method. But I would counter that it’s unimportant what you agree with or don’t. It’s unimportant what I agree with or don’t. He’s not doing this to please anyone or to impress anyone. It’s just an expression of who he is. And I think we can both agree that he’s a pretty amazing person from the things he has written here, regardless of those things about him with which we may not agree.
November 30, 2008 at 2:00 pm
why so defensive of davey dave? Sam made a contribution and very valid perspective at that – what sam and others are DISCERNING here is that the source of daveys talk of love is not True unconditional soul love but is coming from a place of Desire and addiction – davey’s insatiable desire to speak of love is coming from a place of ego and separation; mixed with spiritual pride. That is the truth – this may well go right over your and daveys head here but im sure there are some visitors to this site will get the true essence and meaning of which i speak. Yes davey has an expressive ego which daily finds different ways to express – the delusion that most of you believe is that he speaks from heart and truth. If someone truly was speaking this message from heart and truth they would not be standing in their underpants in this way. Its fine for davey to express his Narcissism in this way – the problem i and others have is his mixture of this in the name of truth and love – davey’s attempt at AVOIDING comments he percieves as negative coming towards him is exactly that his ego’s cunning defense and avoidance mechanism. Sadly this is not the time in daveys life for him to look at this or face reality of his lurking shadow and its bannana cream pie coating. I allow him to do his thing – equally i allow myself to point out the massive misrepresentation of truth and love he parades on this site; misleading and distracting innocent minds too naive to know otherwise. So go on davey let this pass over your worked out body like teflon; in many ways it is easier to do this and continue in your delusions.
November 30, 2008 at 10:03 pm
If you’d read what I wrote, you’d see I never defended DW. I respect Sam’s perspective and I disagree with it. His is no more or less valid than mine and I was introducing a new possibility that he or others may not have considered. Neither one of our perspectives is the ‘truth’. It’s just how we see something.
You spoke a couple of times about truth. Consider that there is no hard-fast truth; that one person’s truth and another person’s truth can be completely different. It doesn’t make either right or wrong. It’s all in how each person perceives the issue.
One last thing… Consider why you come here if what you see is so off-putting to you. Why spend time and energy?
December 1, 2008 at 8:10 am
well the subtle yet profound difference in what i speak of is that Truth in context is absolute. Your reference of perception is that perception and opinion is truth; this speaks of relativism . Moreover i have respect for Truth not Belief systems. Why do i very occassionaly come here, hmm amusement and intrigue how someone so visibly narcissistic can continue to bastardize and play the game of believing they speak of truth and love when in reality they continue to speak from ego and separation. And watching how hook line and sinker most (not all) fall for it; distracted by a shirtless guy in his underpants; its quite funny really, it is what it is. Regarding truth and what it means in Reality i do Know what im talking of (and by the way that is not coming from some egoic position). Whether or not you believe or reject this is of no concern to me. In this day and age of fundamentalists in many walks of life; not just religious i can appreciate how perhaps fundamentalist that may sound to you, but i can assure you it is not. You are trying to give equal validity to illusion (falsity) with truth – that is relativism; Relativism denies the reality of the Absolute; sees only perception and is blind to essence. This site clearly lacks any context – wavering from soft porn semi-nakedness to references to some supposed guru and their ‘truths’ – its like a rudderless ship at sea with no compass & all over the place. It is what it is – indeed what does davey consider he stands for other than a random out there distraction promoting himself via ME tube of which there are millions in this world. If you are truly interested in Truth this is NOT the place to be; If you are pretending to want to know the truth but deep down dont really (lets face it the majority in life dont want to know and are not ready to hear truth) then this is probably an appropriate berth for your boat at this time.
November 29, 2008 at 11:57 pm
All I could think of when I saw that picture was singing “This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine…”
Many times I read your blog and I agree completely. Sometimes I wonder WTF??? And sometimes I’m sideswiped by an idea that’s brilliant and that I’ve never even considered. But whether I agree or not your ideas are always thought provoking and create conversation that would otherwise not happen.
Keep your light shining.
November 30, 2008 at 12:15 am
Nice post Davey… but you might want to extinguish your underwear
November 30, 2008 at 1:34 am
I wonder what inspired this post. If someone is angry with you, do you think, “Have I given them cause to be angry with me?” Or, do you decide that no matter how appallingly you have behaved, it’s their problem and it doesn’t matter to you?
What’s it like to be always right?
November 30, 2008 at 3:06 pm
i suspect the latter – its easier to avoid blame and not truly feel what you feel on the inside – ie accountability and responsiblity are not qualities davey is really aligned with – striving to be a good little boy is davey presenting a persona he believes no one could possibly be angry with him with all his good deeds and charities (including his own to himself lol). Its a trick and trap within duality to align with goodness; doesnt fool me but more importantly does not fool God/divine/universe. His karmic stack is beginning to unwind and present itself to him but his ego continues to strategise and demonise that outside of him; sweet innocent no smoking drinking 9.30 to bed davey – couldnt possibly be harbouring evil thoughts; its him her them bush war there war here – oops i forgot to consider the war going on inside my mind and consciousness……
November 30, 2008 at 5:57 am
I wonder if his real penis is that big, and. . . I wonder if the head lights up when he looks at himself.
November 30, 2008 at 3:08 pm
funny
November 30, 2008 at 12:43 pm
I immediately got your message, light in you and in a dark world. I took it as an expression of love and sincerity coming directly from you. I know what you mean by choice and thank you for that. So few people have the ability to see past the physical appearance of things. Hopefully this will inspire all who read this to do so. Thanks for having the courage to share yourself with us, it is greatly appreciated and admired.
November 30, 2008 at 2:07 pm
“How others treat me is their choice and their path. How I react is my choice and my path.”
This is so true. The only thing I am responsible for is how I react to others. They choose to react how they will, and they choose to treat me how they will. *I* have the choice to react any way I choose. If I choose to react with anger then I am the only one responsible for that. Instead I choose to react with love, constantly giving energy and love to those around me. I find that if I do this, then I almost always get a steady supply in return from the universe.
Thanks Davey. I found you randomly on youtube, and I’m glad I have. I love what you have to say. It’s days like this that I wish I lived in Rhode Island too instead of western Canada.
Be well, my new friend.
November 30, 2008 at 5:43 pm
I think im in love with you.. and im straight.. something about ya man.. your beautiful
November 30, 2008 at 5:54 pm
hmm..
November 30, 2008 at 6:24 pm
This is a great post. I’m going to try and think like this when I’m confronted with people on a different path, one with anger and sadness, because everything for me is going awesome now, and I usually let other peoples moods bring me down. Not happening anymore!
December 1, 2008 at 1:54 am
” what others thing about me — is NONE of my business “

December 1, 2008 at 8:56 am
Yeah it’s right…but sometimes it’s hard not to absorb things like hate =/ Sometimes we just can’t let it pass…
December 4, 2008 at 5:40 pm
Hey Davey,
Hey Davey great blog have not been here for a few weeks but it was great to stop back and read this in deapth post and i hole hartedly agree with you sometimes though people may say hateful things and act a certin way we must just let it pass through us and let it not consume our being for we may begin to think like that and devert from our subsquent path.
Davey keppp up the grat work and way to go with the strike to get your blog buddies to donate i hope you and Scotty have a great Christmas take care.
LOVE ANTHONY (Pennsylvinia)
