With the world changing at such a rapid pace, societies creative artists must become multidimensional or chameleonic to maximize conceivable potentials. One of EzWay’s newly discovered treasures is none other than quadruple threat, Celeste Freidman.
She is an award-winning author, filmmaker, songwriter, and most of all rising fashionista in the metropolitan Los Angeles area, who is operating at a staggering pace, while defying all the odds. Realizing dreams effectively, alone, taught her about love, grief and karma.
Creative Beginnings
Born in Pasay City in the Philippines, award-winning Author Celeste Friedman initiated her creative artistry on the piano at age four. A secret discipline and ear for perfection was being cultivated.
At age eleven, Friedman relocated to Ethiopia where she witnessed a seasoned teenager, gliding up and down the keyboard during a piano recital accelerating her desire to conquer the piano. This was a pivotable moment.
It ultimately instilled in her a desire to learn to dominate this magnificant instrument. The creative freedom she experienced opened her eyes to a new emotional frequency, seldom felt by one. Playing the piano at church regularly built her confidence.
A New Path: Fashion
At twelve years of age, she arrived in the United States where her mother sat her in front of a sewing machine for the first time, creating another pivotal moment. Celeste, being the visionary she was would eventually turn that moment into a professional fashion career.
Most of us who come from humble beginnings understand the clash of perspectives, when contending with the peer pressure of school apparel. We weather it and we grow past it. What couldn’t be purchased she aptly made for herself, creating a humble leader.
Finding Unconditional Love and Inspiration
Another pivotal moment came with the loss of a most cherished loved one, inspiring her to write a memoir. She followed it up with a film while composing the tribute song in the movie and co-writing the theme song (lyrics) for the project. It has positioned her as a rising star player in the Hollywood lexicon.
She had finally experienced unconditional love revealing what love and respect actually looked like, a total acceptance, an Agape love. It was short of miraculous, teaching her to love herself like never before. And though it was abruptly taken away from her, it never hindered her evolutionary process.
The Butterfly and Self-Actualization
Her new book “Butterfly,” is a story of strength, faith, perseverance, love and karma. The metamorphosis she endured reawakened her mind, body and spirit. It launched her into a stratospheric sector creating the capability to enlighten the masses.
Self-restoration of the soul is not only possible, but also life-altering as it reveals new pathways to a universe that says “yes.” It rids you of the perils of perseverance, effectuating a course of self-actualization, allowing one to educate the souls that need saving.
Nicherin Buddhism has played an intricate role in her augmentation, as chanting blocks out the mental clutter, allowing one to direct pertinent energy towards existentialism. It introduced her to the nature of karma, namely responsible action which based in love can produce peace and happiness.
Looking Forward
What is simply amazing is that she accomplished most of these feats in just a two-and-a-half-year period. Including co-founding Infowebusa Technologies, and internet marketing company. Celeste is a neatly wrapped package of explosives ready to enlighten, curate and heal the world. She is undulating beneath our proverbial feet.
In eZWay’s continuous pursuit of like-minded individuals who share goals of reshaping the dynamics of our tattered society, we strive towards positive frequencies that will bring to life the awe-inspiring utopia we all dream of.
