- Find your meaning of life, create your meaning of life, then go all the way
Tom O'Bedlam Spoken Verse: / spokenverse
Poet: Charles Bukowski
The Laughing Heart; Roll the Dice
Narrated by: Tom O'Bedlam
if you're going to try, go all the
way.
otherwise, don't even start.
if you're going to try, go all the
way.
this could mean losing girlfriends,
wives, relatives, jobs and
maybe your mind.
go all the way.
it could mean not eating for 3 or 4 days.
it could mean freezing on a
park bench.
it could mean jail,
it could mean derision,
mockery,
isolation.
isolation is the gift,
all the others are a test of your
endurance, of
how much you really want to
do it.
and you'll do it
despite rejection and the worst odds
and it will be better than
anything else
you can imagine.
if you're going to try,
go all the way.
there is no other feeling like
that.
you will be alone with the gods
and the nights will flame with
fire.
do it, do it, do it.
do it.
all the way
all the way.
you will ride life straight to
perfect laughter, it's
the only good fight
there is - Krátké a kreslené filmy
"The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time." Mark Twain
Love this quote
All my life I have been in bondage,deep fear of living fear of dying fear of self who am I? Why am I?
This comes from Taoism/Daoism. As Confucius said, ”A man who understands the Tao in the morning can die contentedly in the evening. “ Meaning if you have ever lived one complete moment, you can be ready to die.
I feel that
But in my reality i am nothing
I AM Jesus Christ in the flesh
I AM the way the truth and the life
"Isolation is a gift and all the others are just a test" so true
Yess!
@Ligeia D.Aurevilly all really depends on your perspective.

@Ligeia D.Aurevilly you're missing the point

“Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think,
I'm not going to make it,
but you laugh inside,
remembering all the times you've felt that way.”

"You will be alone with the gods" this part really hit me. Studying late into the night as others party and go on and do things without me or when im just tired and my determination begins to falter I really feel the lonliness start to set in. I used to have a lot of friends before I gave my main life goals more attention but now I often spend days alone working in the hope itll all pay off. It makes the journey more bearable knowing that Im on the same road as those heroes in history.
you got it champ, I feel the same way. Keep pushing hard.
It does not matter in the end , all we can do is try
Very same this side. :)
Beautifully said . It's hard when I got serious about my goals I lost everything and everyone . Had to start over . But we got this just keep going one day at a time .
This, is gold.
Please, how do i connect with you on Facebook or Twitter?
We don't have to walk this lonely path alone.
Let's journey together, sir/ma
I never thought a poem would sum up exactly how I felt in life. Being the bottom 1% in wealth in the USA and still going for my physics PhD over the many years of starving and fighting depression this poem perfectly sums up my thoughts. I didn't want to be just another graduate I wanted to be the best and in order to do that I had to sacrifice everything even sanity, health and love to get it so that I wouldn't be insignificant. I had to go all the way, had to give up everything to be the best and it's cost me everything and I believe soon it will pay off and my name will not die like others.
long live dickthedestroyer
@@TheGeorge2277 Lmfao, that's the funniest thing I ever heard about in 2020
Why would you go for a such a low payoff endeavor if you're in the bottom 1%... with sports, music and even coding it would be so much easier for you to have a big payoff for being good at it
@@HHLPA because i dont do it for money? Its called fighti ngf for what you believe in
@@FormedUnique oh, sorry then... Maybe I'm just too jaded... Good luck man
This poem rekindled my soul and brought me back from the dark abyss where I laid defeated. I will not accept defeat. I will go all the way!!!
Power to you! Don't ever forget how you felt when you wrote this that day.
I really want to know where you are now ya all
@@mikebaldini4668 .
You will suffer, and you will suffer, and you will feel pain, and you will hurt, and it will be unbearable. This is not success, this is life .If you are to live, for some strange odd reason you must endure, but if you not only endure. If you also embrace it, use it, learn from it, then not only will you survive, you will surely thrive. Suffering is your reward for living, what you achieve from it is totally up to you. #MP
***** thank you! #coachMP
Listening to jbp more like
woah woah where did you get it?
Have you ever considered that maybe we shouldn't endure? What if the problem is reality?
@@Electricsheep86
If the problem is reality well,
Drown in the wave of the numb.
Sleep. Rest. Regret.
There's nothing waiting for you
Down there.
Up here, there might be.
You can't beat death but you can beat death in life. Wow powerful!
You're fucking awesome man.
Keep doing what you're doing.
+Leo Lion thanks Leo
he was talking about Charles Bukowski
Hah! 100th like after the 50th! Oh...yes thats my life and i enjoy it
The search for Truth means going all the way. And it can cost you a lot, friends, job, sleep, health,...and, yes, your mind.
Ligeia D.Aurevilly if one so happens, by either accident, trickery, insanity or by vanity to veiw the Void and finds only truth and not Love - one can still aspire towards it with Hope and Faith. Love exists - the same as Hope and Faith - at least for myself I was able to find them all - in the search for Truth of self. We could all have good thoughts for those still in search for the ones that never made it back and the ones still there. Let your heart go out.
Its a great day, hope yours is smiling.
@Ligeia D.Aurevilly fuck love
sending regards to commander erwin smith and eren jeager...
This popped up at the perfect time. Cried like a baby. Powerful. Just after a breakup and moving cities..
You asked God for strength so he gave you problems to get strong from. You got this
I love this channel...
However, I kind of doubt Bukowski intended this poem to end up being a Nike commercial.
agree
Agree, and the constant TJOP logo popping up takes away from it, or lessons the meaning. plz stop doing that, you don't need to advertise to existing customers.
It could mean becoming a Nike advert.

If it works it works it’s meant for inspiration that’s all
I love this channel, when I feel like giving up, I come here, then I realize how much I have to truly live for, thank you, always, I love you.
This is my mantra. Seriously, SERIOUSLY contemplate the meaning of this beautiful advice. It will help you through anything. Be the strength you are, and GO ALL THE WAY!!!
I need this several times a year. It's my vaccine against a world run by corporations.
Bukowski speaks to me like no other.
This is wonderful, and I am so grateful that you created this. It acts as a powerful call to remain true to myself in my own creative process.
I'm about to run Chicago Marathon for the first time on Sunday and this piece of art has been my motivation for the last 5 months.
I know sports are kind of the easiest route to show something like this, but could you have included other non-physical pursuits. A scientist staying up until the early morning researching, a law student practicing their case in the mirror over and over again, a photographer going to great lengths and heights for the perfect shot. There's more to life than just being physically fit and there's more ways to push yourself that don't involve lifting weights or running 10 miles, it would have been nice to see that as well.
Red Walker Yes.
+Red Walker i agree. alot of motivation always focus on sports, working out and physical fitness. there is more to life. i was thinking maybe a guy constantly getting rejected by girls but keeps trying until he's successful. or a soldier in war fighting for his country. or maybe even a person trying to break away from an addiction, anorexia, drugs, etc
I would agree, just the sports visuals looked cooler with the music, I'm not into sports motivation
theJourneyofPurpose TJOP Understandable.
He included Mathematics.
Isolation is a gift... and solitude, unlike loneliness, is a love affair with the cosmos ❤
i have no choice but to share this video. i feel so many people can benefit from it
I'm so exhausted... I just want to stop feeling this pain. It never goes away. It only gets worse. I never get anywhere good.
I recommend semen retention. It will give you a new found energy, and you can put it towards constructive hobbies, life purpose etc. You will encounter flatlines at times but you just keep pushing forward. It will be hard to do in the beginning but if you fight through it, it should become easier.
I went all the way, I'm eligible for parole in 20 years
Hilarious 😂 you went too far my friend
My life in a nutshell

Me too
People dont push themselves enough. This is a great video and inspiration. Go all the way..
Probably my most favorite video of yours! Such a beautiful quote and the music and the cinematography you put with it was just spot on! Cheers mate.
Breathtakingly beautiful and divine.
I need to hear this poem every damn day
I took what "I" needed from this, thank you.
Love it... made me cry.
I was looking for this! Now it found me ! Thanks
Polluted a beautiful poem with these images. This poem is NOT about basketball and lifting weights. Its not about running fast. Its about finding your truth. The toughest yet most rewarding path one can take in this lifetime
The title of this poem is, (no caps), "roll the dice." If you're going to share a poet's work, it's proper and frankly, legally appropriate, to provide the poem's proper title, the form which it was written in, and from which collection the piece was procured.
Another courtesy would be to provide a link to where the collection can be purchased. Just for the record, the title of a poet's piece is as germane to the poem as the body of the poem itself, and chosen quite deliberately in most cases. As a lover and student of Mr. Bukowski's work, I'm certain he'd want the poem shared in its entirety--which includes the title. Thank you.
lol
I respect you for voicing your voice, and for enlightening the crowd. Credit should be given where its due; especially in this case, the title could've been included. Don't mind those who don't see value in them, because they don't see value in themselves to begin with.
This poem changed my life
Stunning TRUTH simply Fabulous !!
this moved me to tears
Amazing!!!! I don't know what to say!
Thank you very much!!

This video is self-contradictory. The poem still stands its grounds.
Incredible
Genius
Truely Amazing...world class level man..congrats!!
Awesome gift to the whole planet,😊🤘🤙
I gotta say, to go all the way even if it means jail is a bit extreme. Not eating for 3-4 days is extreme too. I agree with some of what he said but i'm a big fan of this channel and had to share this. A journey toward a goal, the way i see it, supposed to be fun, exciting, legit and balanced with a healthy lifestyle. One should not end up in prison because of it.
Ran Chicheportiche you haven’t read much Bukowski, have you?
Yesssssss, most definitely!!! All the way!!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you man
I've lived all through that..
I still live it...
There is nothing like isolation...
Starvation....jail cells.. drunk tanks...Depression. Obsession.Addiction..
This man is why I still Write.
Som pripraveny. Dakujem ti za vsetko.
Best motivational video ever.
Thank you.
It sums up my life actually. There is no feeling like that absolutely true
this video changed my life .
Thank you
Love your work! It remind me every time that one day I promise to fear that reflection in the mirror, because he holds no fear.
awesome vid man! i really need that motivation right now
beautiful...
this hit home
I really enjoy your videos, keep up the good work:)
Love this voice
I often find it funny, how incredibly beautiful this poem is. It isn't about the meaning, it is about him. It is his regret of living as an alcoholic his whole life, loosing everyone in the process, dying alone ultimately. The irony is, the writer never at any given stage of his life actually lived up to these words. So therefore these words are words of regret, remorse, and guidance, and through that one should be inspired. The moral of the story is here, life is too short for bickering, fighting, and falsehood. Get on with it and meet it head up, R.I.P Mr Bukowski.
This video describes my last year. And I’m glad I decided to go all the way
this is amazing
What a treasure he was.
Im going to watch this every morning at 4am before I start my day for the next year... I'll check back in on April 4th 2024 .
How is it going?
I went all the way.
I still failed.
At least I went down standing up.
Geoff Dick I'd love to hear your story
Failure is the seed of success
You are still alive aren't you? Then you didn't go all the way.
Failure, Success, Fear, Triumph I find none of these are important (you'll experience them, we're human) but they are not important do the _work_ (I am a painter) , it's the only important thing, its the closest I've felt to the idea of true bliss and enlightenment.
Do the work
YOU DID NOT FAIL YOU JUST DIDNT TRY AGAIN
Thank you, Bukowski, for writing these words of resilience and resolve. And thanks to TJOP for sharing this poem.
This is a very good motivational message. Thanks for sharing this. :)
beautifully inspired.
All your videos are perfect

I’ve been dreaming of and now planning on a walk across the USA. Today I saw this and it touched me deeply and it’s as if it speaks directly to me. It’s exactly what I needed to hear.
Hey there. Have you done your walk yet?
@@xxfox Unfortunately I haven’t. I had a heart attack 8 months ago and am now preparing to have more heart surgery soon. I’ll do it someday when I’ve regained my health but I need to have the bypass surgery first.
@@joemusic2882 I'm so sorry to hear that. I really hope you get to do your walk someday, if it's something that you still want to do.
@@xxfox I still want to but this whole heart attack thing totally blindsided me. It’s going to be a lengthy recovery ❤️🩹 but I’ll get through it. Thanks for your kind words
Omg... I was looking for this.. Couldn't find it.. Now it found me..
And, I found you? You cute :/.
Love this so good
good work! you are amazing
traditionallly i'd find myself at a lost to muster the appropriate word symbols adequate to describe my soul affinity for this channel; however, in light of a brilliantly published video-poem, i'll give it a try, i'll go all the way:
TJOP Rocks!
This was Great!!!
