When you know


I knew when I made the choice to be a better man for not just for her, but for myself. I know that she is worth the effort, thoughts, and struggle. I could be ok at my present state, but why just be ordinary when I could be extraordinary. To choose someone above yourself is the greatest sacrifice. I knew that it was going to be a struggle for me since I've spent years being selfish. I thought it was gonna be easy and simple; instead it has been hard. I acknowledge that I've been selfish. Partially because of my situation with my son. The struggle of sacrificing so much to lose it in the (end) has been a struggle. I see that my ways much change, so I step it up. I face my greatest challenges and fears face to face. Some were easy to conquer. Others are such a struggle that I find myself spending hours fight against falling back in the habit. I don't claim to be perfect. Honesty I'm perfectly imperfect. I know that all I can do is put forth all my effort and the greatest reward will come.

You know it's something special when you would move around the world for her. I can say it was simple, but in reality it's the hardest decision I've made thus far. I've put her before me, cause she deserves to be. I haven't praised anyone before, but if I am going to believe, love, and trust someone. Why not the person who makes you think about it?

When you are on the right track the wrong trains fall off. Don't be sadden by the lost of old friends. Be happy with the site of new and better ones. Life provides exactly what you need...both good and bad.

Cold Inside


When the world is cold on the outside, keep a warm heart. It may be the only place you can go to keep you alive inside the darkness. The righteous shall prosper!

Friends are the Best Enemies


When you are down and no one is around, who do you have? You
When you become successful and accomplished everything you imaginde, who did it? You
When T Mobile is about to cut off the phone again, who do you call? You
When you can't carry the dead weight anymore, who do I let go of in this struggle? You

Just a lonely soul in a overcrowded room.

New Year's Resolution

Hong Kong New Year's Eve

While everyone I know is out partying, I'm in the house writing my New Year's Resolution. I wrote out my New Year's Resolutions because I wanted to give myself the opportunity to set goals for the incoming year, and to see what things that are still works in progress. I am writing my resolutions because in the end I am the only one who can hold me to my journey.

• Establish a strong monogamous relationship
• Create $500,000 in passive income
• Read 12 books by 2010 (1/month)
• Develop spirituality
• Be in the best shape of my life.
• Complete 5 public speaking engagements
• Contact family more often
• Write more (blog, book, experiences)
• Create better routines and habits

Realest Thing I (Never) Wrote

Kid Cudi

People and situations will change; things will come and go in and out of your life. Yet nothing good is ever lost. The love you know stays with you always, even when the person you love is no longer with you. The good things you do stay with you always, even when time has erased all physical evidence of them.

When you live in fear of losing something, then you never really have or experience it. When you avoid attempting anything because you fear failure, then failure is exactly what you get.

No good effort is ever wasted, for even if it fails to produce any outer value, the inner value is always there. Even when what you do is not recognized, reciprocated or appreciated, still you have had the priceless blessing of doing it.

If you constantly seek the validation of others, you will often be disappointed. Yet when you live, and love and act in each moment with the best that you have to give, the real value you create can never be diminished.

You will reap what you sow...It’s also called Karma!

Do not let others allow you to get outside your character.

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

Giving ur all

Maneki-Neko

I am learning the art of giving everything. To give your all without looking for something in return has always been a struggle for me. In the past, I would always expect that my giving would be reciprocated. Now I just search to make others feel happy and appreciated. We can gain everything if we give something.

This Bird (Revisited)

During a recent listening session, I truly started to appreciate this song. It has become on my personal favors. Even though I am not a Solange fan, I do find "This Bird" to be an overall great song. In the last couple of days, I am spending time thinking thru the Master Plan. Who knows what may happen when this bird starts to fly.

Once in a time
Where the girls feel like girls
And the world is painted
Cotton candy
Where the sweet lemonade
Of mcgregor street
Was the best the damn thing of the summer breeze
Your dad drives a foreign car
And your mama looks like a beauty queen
Now the sour bitter days
Of a colorless place
Seems to light up my nights somehow
And the music i play must be loud, loud, loud, loud, loud as can be
So i dont have to hear myself think
So i dont have to wake up from this dream

I dont wanna sing no single mama blues
Im not singin look at me i've been abused
O im honestly lost girl starin at you
So maybe ill put on my high heel shoes
And soar the night away
And soar the night away
But whatever i do

Im not gonna slow this bird down
I don't wanna look life in the eye
I'm not gonna fall face first in the spiral called a life
Im not in denial
Im not suicidal
Not an alcoholic
Im not out here whoring
So just shut the f**k up
This birds not slowing down
Once in a while
When the sun does its job
Lets the clouds take a nice day off
I can breeze through the day

And just run through night
Here injisted of those big blue eyes
Is this is life might run
On the evening of fourth july
So i got reason to fly

Im not gonna slow this bird down
I don't wanna look life in the eye
I don't wanna fall face first in the spiral called a life
Im not in denial
Im not suicidal
Not an alcoholic
Im not out here whoring
So just shut the f**k up
This birds not slowing down

Slowing dowwwwnnn
Slowing downnnnn
Slowing dowwwnnnn

Its not over yet
The song isnt over yet
Aint no birds
Gonna slow me down
Imma keep on rollin
And aint no birds gonna slow me down
Keep on rollin
And aint no birds
Gonna slow me down
Imma keep on rollin
And aint no birds gonna slow me down

Focus of the Week: Selflessneess

Ravishing Rick Rude

This weekend was very eye opening. While I learned many different things about myself, I feel that one of the best things to come out of this weekend was that I acknowledge I am a very self-centered individual. I had never noticed it before because I was too busy being defensive when people told me I was wrong. Now I see that I need to change my ways, so the first thing I have done is give...even when it is my last. I do that because I know that the good energy that I put out will make everything around me better. I notice that if I am going to be selfish, I might as well create something that will benefit those around me, because if I say I care about you, I should want to make sure you are happy too. I give to others not for something in return other than that blessing I ask of myself…positive energy.

"Give to others and karma will repay you when you need it. If everyone put someone's feelings and life ahead of theirs once, we would have a better world. I am taking that first step for myself...I hope someone catches me":)

Never forget

Laura Camille

An emotional person is never logical.
We must remain calm...it is the foundation of growth. Never allow your emotions to take control of your thoughts. It clouds the very thought that you are trying to get across.
