My shrine"Live your life till the very end, with a strong heart" 1月11日 LAO TSUWell i have not been posting anything lately but im back... and here i have a poem that i saw one day on a seminar of my martial arts... and i thought it was awsome so here i am sharing with you.... so enjoy it
Enlightment Express yourself completely then become quiet. Open yourself to heaven and earth and be like the forces of nature: when the wind blows, there is only the wind; when it rains there is only rain; when the cloud pass the sun promises to shine. If you open yourself to insight, you are at one with insight and you can use it completely. Open yourself to heaven and earth, then trust your natural responses and everything will fall into place -Lao Tsu 12月8日 MY ARTWell i created a new album with some of my work... that i have done thru all this time... i will try to keep updating it with new stuff..because im starting to draw and paint again...so.... u know... well...i hope you like it and leave me suggestions and comments please...to know your opinion... take care.... 11月29日 Thanks God because I am imperfectMy brother sended me a while ago....and I think it is GREAT...hope you like it.
I am not perfect !Thank you God!
I wanted to imagine how my life would look like if i was perfect: no sorrows, no sadness, without the need of love or feeling being loved, having everything within my grasp, to get anything without problems. Having an image and the perfect figure in front of everybody, feeling the power in my hands... After all that is what humans wish and dream of.
After having that image, it was not a dream, but a nightmare that i wanted to wake up from immediately. I ran towards the mirror and i saw my image and with a voice of relieved i said: !im not perfect, thanks God!
If i was always right, i would not understand the mistakes of others, i would live judging them and i will be alone, because i would not find someone as equal as me.
If my image and figure were perfect in front of humanity, nobody would know who i was, they would look for me for my appereance, and nobody would know who i really am. I would be a slave of my body and of everything superficial, finding the formula to eternal youth so i would not get old ever.
In the mirror i would not see anything but my figure, I would not know who i was. I rather be small, be sure that the people that care about me, they know who i really am. If not, i would have emptyness, and i did not need love nor to be loved, that scares me. I do not want to think what is life without love, without having the feeling of wanting to be loved and the great desires to bring love to the other people, if for that same reason that God created us.
I am not perfect and i thank God because my imperfection gives purpose to my life, it drives me to be better every day. Thanks God for my imperfection and thanks because in my weakness your power gets perfect. Just put in me the touch of your perfection which is "LOVE" 11月18日 Paul Harvey writes!!!this is greatWe tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse. For my grandchildren, I'd like better. I'd really like for them to know about hand me down clothes and homemade ice cream and leftover meat loaf sandwiches. I really would.
I hope you learn humility by being humiliated, and that you learn honesty by being cheated. I hope you learn to make your own bed and mow the lawn and wash the car. And I really hope nobody gives you a brand new car when you are sixteen.
It will be good if at least one time you can see puppies born and your old dog put to sleep.
I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in.
I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother/sister. And it's all right if you have to draw a line down the middle of the room,but when he wants to crawl under the covers with you because he's scared, I hope you let him.
When you want to see a movie and your little brother/sister wants to tag along, I hope you'll let him/her. I hope you have to walk uphill to school with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely.
On rainy days when you have to catch a ride, I hope you don't ask your driver to drop you two blocks away so you won't be seen riding with someone as uncool as your Mom.
If you want a slingshot, I hope your Dad teaches you how to make one instead of buying one.
I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books.
When you learn to use computers, I hope you also learn to add and subtract in your head.
I hope you get teased by your friends when you have your first crush on a boy\girl, and when you talk back to your mother that you learn what ivory soap tastes like.
May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on a stove and stick your tongue on a frozen flagpole.
I don't care if you try a beer once, but I hope you don't like it. And if a friend offers you dope or a joint, I hope you realize he is not your friend.
I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your Grandma/Grandpa and go fishing with your Uncle.
May you feel sorrow at a funeral and joy during the holidays.
I hope your mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through your neighbor's window and that she hugs you and kisses you at Hannukah/Christmas time when you give her a plaster mold of your hand. These things I wish for you - tough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness. To me, it's the only way to appreciate life. Written with a pen. Sealed with a kiss. I'm here for you. And if I die before you do, I'll go to heaven and wait for you.
Send this to all of your friends. We secure our friends, not by accepting favors, but by doing them. 11月3日 “DEALING WITH UNCERTAINTY”GOD: “Have you ever gone fishing and put a fishing line in the water and just felt the serenity of what surrounded you? Fishing is a wait-and- see process. You have the line in the water and you don’t know if the lure on your line is going to catch a fish. And, then, there is the excitement if the fish is caught and seeing what kind of fish it is going to be. When you think of these scenario – of waiting – of the serenity of fishing – and, then, the unknown as to what kind of fish you will catch - and the excitement of catching the fish. Is this not what life is all about, My children? You cast your line into the water of life and you don’t know what will come about. It’s okay to take those chances and opportunities. But, if you are the kind of person who has to know how everything is going to be, you will find that that rigidity will make it very difficult for life to flow. For, it is with the unknown – casting your line into the water of life and seeing what happens – that you might catch the most magnificent fish – the tastiest, the biggest, the best. Or, it could just be that is no fish on your line. Is that okay with you? Is it all right? For, you see, when you are there enjoying the sunlight on your face and body, and the peace that surrounds you while you are fishing, the trees, the breeze on your face – then, you’ve already captured the essence of life - a peace that is not the same as in your day to day life. Sometimes you don’t know what will happen. And, that’s okay, so long as you fully participate in life. For, as you live life, then you know that your experiences bring you closer to the Divine – to God. Never be afraid to cast your fishing line of life into deeper waters, at times. If you stay in the shallow waters, you can catch only smaller fish. Sometimes, you will want to cast it into deeper waters and see what experiences come about as a result. There is one thing that will hold you back – fear. Fear of change. Fear of the unknown. Never be so afraid that you won’t take another chance or opportunity. For, life is truly what you make of it. And, it’s okay not to know what a certain opportunity is going to bring. Let it just be an opportunity and see what unfolds. You don’t have to know everything upfront, My children, in order to take a chance in life. You just have to be open and know that I am always with you. There is a certain freedom to what I speak to today – which is freeing to you.” 10月31日 IT IS OVER...Well as you may know...

"Friends teach you what you want to know, enemies teach you what you need to know" 10月4日 Emotional FreedomDealing with powerful emotions can be challenging, especially when we are going through chaotic, sad, or cruel experiences in our lives. Often, it can seem like we have only two options for dealing with our feelings so they don't become too overwhelming. We may let our feelings out in an immediate and visceral way, or we may bottle them up by suppressing our emotions inside our bodies. Most people make the second choice, repressing their feelings in an attempt to deny them. The truth is that there are many positive ways to deal with emotions, and experiencing your negative feelings doesn't have to constitute a negative experience. Denying your feelings is not only unhealthy for the mind and the body, but it may also rob you of valuable information you could be learning about yourself and your life. Suppressing your emotions can even impede your short-term memory. Acknowledging your feelings can help you better understand them and help you recover naturally from change, stres! s, and grief. |
