Church Candles

Maybe the inspiration that you inspire in others

 is that you keep getting up,

and so,

they too keep getting up.

You suffer, not because you are deserving of suffering,

or deserving of karma,

or even because you did something wrong.

Not all who suffer are deserving of such,

but because through you, 

others may gain the resilience and the inspiration to persevere,

even in times of near impossibilities.

Mountain

Law of the Universe

All things must eventually come to an end, 

so that new life may arise.

This is equally true in love, life, and experience.

Tunnel
Justitia Goddess

Law of the Universe

Balance is inevitable.

Film Slate Marker

There are two types of entertainers in this world:

1. Those who entertain with a priority of money, and/or to inflate personal sense of importance,

and

2. those whose priority is to create, to them, what is art, and to entertain others through that art.

It's often the person that has achieved very little in their own life

that speak ill of another's achievements.

Don't believe me, 

assess their achievements.

Your achievements, your experiences, your journeys,

are different from everybody else,

even in mild or major similarity. 

So why are you comparing yours to theirs, as if they're somehow supposed to match up?

Envy is wanting your life to be like someone else's, or to have what they have,

inevitably leading to suffering.

Ambition is looking at what someone else has done and saying,

"Yeah, I can do that," 

then creating your own experience through the journey.

Endless Journey

Chess

Everyone needs a rival.

This is a part of our experience, and sometimes what drives us to do more in life.

Although, in my experience,

my greatest rival has always been myself.

It's amazing what I can convince myself not to do when no other rival could.

They fear what may become.

Prove them right.

Winter Village

​To be "Great" you must also be considered "stupid," at least in terms of the general population's norms, beliefs, and understanding of how "things work."

Otherwise you would be like everyone else,

logical.

And no one that has ever become truly Great in the history of a higher consciousness race, such as that of Humans, has also been considered prominently logical, 

because logic is also the definition of not taking risk,

and a level of risk is always required for true greatness to be achieved.

Sunrise Mount Fuji

Age is but a number that society utilizes to try to dictate what you can and cannot do.

SUP Yoga Warrior

"It's lonely at the top," 

but if not,

"Heavy weighs the crown,"

but if not, 

"Snakes in the grass,"

but consider yourself lucky if you make it and you're only dealing with one of the three.

Perspective is key.

Half glass full people.

Never fully trust anyone that says 

"I always believed in ______" 

or brags about knowing someone historical, famous, or remembered by the masses.

 A lot of the same people that witnessed Jesus' miracles or got to meet him,

also partook in the atrocious entertainment of his crucifixion. 

Fear of being an outcast or desire to be popular can be rather fickle as a personality trait.

Light and Shadow
Clouds and Sunset

One would think that the more that I have learned,

the more I may recognize that concepts such as Heaven do not exist.

To much surprise,

it's quite the opposite.

As a matter of fact, 

they now appear impossible to refute.

Light and Shadow

I get to learn for a living.

I get paid very well to quite literally absorb knowledge.

I can only think of very few blessings greater than that,

and all others that I can think of become greater the more I learn.

Face Against the Wall

Debates kind of remind me of a dysfunctional relationship.

Even if someone's wrong,

and they know they're wrong,

they'll keep arguing with the sole intent of winning.

It seems counter-productive to progression.

I think we should just stick to civilized conversations, and do away with debating.

There's a lot less pride on the line, and something almost always actually gets fixed.

​

Hand Shadow

If we've never met, 

or never spent more than 5 hang out sessions without obligation, 

then you don't know me.

And if that last line of "you don't know me" is triggering, 

then you definitely don't know me.

When life hands you lemons,

fuck lemonade,

get someone that knows what the fuck they're doing to make you a Lemon Meringue pie!​​

Thinking Man on Couch

You create many of your own miseries in life, 

as well as your blessings. 

You simply have the choice of which of the two you'd like to create more of. 

If you are nieve to this concept, 

or think the statement is untrue,

you've likely already succumbed to those miseries.

Time to switch it up, my friend.

Light and Shadow
Greek Ancient Sculpture of Warrior

In the realm of Gods and Titans,

the differences are many,

unless assessed in regards to "control,"

then the differences are few,

with many of the same justifications.

The worse thing I ever did with my life was not the drugs, it was not the alcohol, it was not the poor decisions or the failed relationships, â€‹

it was learning about the things that do not exist.

Beliefs your own,

but what a disaster that has been to humanity.

Light and Shadow

To be the man that talks shit while walking away and while your enemy stands in place in wait, 

may quite literally be the definition of a "wannabe bully."

Cowardly, failed, and without respect,

even from his own friends.

The worst thing you can do if you dislike me, 

is give me a reason to want to get revenge on you.

Often times,

this is the sole reason for my drive, my persistence,

and my success.

We weren't born from the same worlds.

Light and Shadow

If you can, be both successful and a good fighter, 

because why not.

Although, in our current times, being just a good fighter will likely not see you elevated over a successful man,

in riches or in women,

unless a successful competitive fighter. 

Oh how far we've come.

I have always, and will always,

strive to be Great.

Maybe not the greatest, 

as the greatest will always be surpassed through time and evolution,

but always Great.

Don't ever let them tell you this wasn't the real meaning behind the name.

IYKYK.

Punch With Style

Muscles are to deter attackers from attacking.

Knowing how to fight and how to truly defend yourself and others, 

is for when they do.

Boxing Position

If you can be fit, 

then be fit.

if you can learn to fight, 

do that too.

And if you only have time to be one of those two,

make more time.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with lustful content.

Until you're also criticizing men for being lustful.

Leaving shit comments on her page isn't going to change the fact that she isn't going to sleep with you.

Frozen Pizzas

This may come as a surprise,

but not every man that passes by or interacts with you is trying to sleep with you,

you're quite literally just "there" like anyone else.

I know, 

it's a lot to take in.

Niceties have become a delicacy that most people choose to stay away from.

I'm just taking some advice from a great,

No one gets left behind on this climb to the top, 

unless they chose to be,

then good riddance. 

Texting at Work

No closer have I ever heard a more relatable line delivered than:

"You're kind of an asshole Bob,"

while she smiled.

Because she knew him to be pure.

Conformity is the death of creativity.

Never compare yourself or your accomplishments to people you used to know.

Most of the people that think they're "cooler" than you,

have done very little with their lives to earn the title.

Sometimes the best thing a person can do for you,

is give you a reason to cut them out.
