I specialize in relationship counseling. I love teaching, which is one of the noblest professions. Unfortunately, this country and today's youth have little respect for what good teachers everywhere do for their students on a daily basis. One day they will receive the respect and recognition they deserve. I'm also a balla!...yeah a basketball player. (What did you think I mean?) I played for both my high school and university. Football is my second love and the other sport I excelled in. Yup, I love it and I played proudly for my school. (Plus the scholarships didn't hurt either.) I'm also a martial artist that was taught to me in the traditional style since I was 6. I'm a 3rd Dan in Aikido and a 2nd degree Black Belt in Jujitsu. Both are the bases of my traditional style of Aiki-Jujitsu. Tennis is one of my hobbies that has helped me with my hand eye coordination along with footwork. Bowling is a recent addition that is currently taught to me by my cuz Jason. My nightlife in Vegas allows me to meet others with different ideals and beliefs. (Not to mention observe and learn from.) Shooting pool is another one of my hobbies that I enjoy once in a while. (I'm actually pretty decent..) What I do on the side is save the world on occasion. What do I mean by that... well if you think of it, we all live in our own little worlds. Who we include in our worlds counts as part of your own. I take it upon myself to help anyone and hope that one day they will be able to return the favor for someone else. Thus, making the world a little better to live in. I've worked hard to acquire my skills in both education and life. I still believe that there's more to learn and I hope someday I will pass down what I have learned to my children. Until that day comes, I will enjoy my life to the fullest by experiencing and learning new things everyday.
Until that special woman comes along, it's up to me to learn and understand women the best way I know how...by learning and understanding. With each woman I meet and talk to, it puts me one step closer to knowing what women truly want in a man. The more unique or different a woman's personality is, I want to know you. What better way is there to prepare for my future wife? Knowing in today's society it feels like 9 out of 10 relationships end because most couples weren't right for each other in the first place. On top of that, half of the ones that do get married end up in divorced. Lets face it, plenty of couples getting married today aren't ready to face adversity. I believe that if you're truly right for each other, one of you will fight for that relationship and say something everytime life sends an obstacle your way. A lot of that breaks down to the individual and how they face their own past relationships and inner struggles. Always remember that a relationship can stand strong if you have the right person to support you. When two strong individuals get together, they become stronger as a unit. When one is strong and the other is not, that person has to be twice as strong for the both of them without allowing little room for mistakes. Imagine how hard it would be for an individual that can barely support themselves and has taken the on the additional responsibility of marriage. Marriage should never be a dependence on each other but more of a support. When one support falls its up to the other to be strong for the both of them until the other gets back up. I know in my heart, I don't want to be a statistic. I want the peace of mind knowing that if I fall, I will have the support I need to get back up. I still believe in true love in spite of how many people take it for granted. Through my clinical and personal experiences, I've learned to become very patient and a highly receptive listener. (Especially, when it comes to relationship problems.) If you really want to understand why the male in your life acts up the way he does, I'll be happy to explain it to you. Just remember that I'm going to tell you how it is.... (So be prepared for an honest response.) Please understand that this is purely based on an outside perspective with no emotional attachment to the situation. With that mind, you will always hear nothing but the TRUTH. (It's the least I can do in order to offset all the guys that give the male species a bad name.) Not to mention, show you that there are Princes out there still looking for their Cinderella. If I exist, then there should be millions upon millions of guys out there that might feel the same way I do. With that being said and you feel like you're destined to live your life alone, just remember this.... Love is everywhere and is express in many shapes and forms. When the opportunity for love presents itself...swallow your foolish pride, set aside all the prejudgments, prejudices, assumptions and emotional baggage you've carried from one relationship to other. That is one sure way for true love find you. As we all know, each relationship is unique, special and completely different. If you still have the same problems with your new boyfriend, it's simply because you haven't learned the lesson you were given prior to the new relationship you're in. Like all life lessons… they are taught over and over again in various forms until you've finally learned that lesson and move on to the next one. With every pitfall, setback, or heartbreaks you encounter along the way. These lessons are to help get closer to what you want most... to find your one true love and enjoy happiness in your life. Just never lose hope because there is someone out there looking for you...and when you're ready...love will find a way. As for what type of woman I want a relationship with.... it will be a girl who's just as beautiful as her mind. The same kind of girl that can give you one look and can show you that she loves you without saying a word. The kind of girl that can make your heart skip a beat every time she makes eye contact with you. Love like that is hard to find but I wouldn't have it any other way!! The most interesting thing about love and relationships is that sometimes we perceive love as a need. Unfortunately, that is completely untrue. Some may disagree for what I'm about to say but I've concluded that love is a want not a need. Love has always been a choice not a necessity. We choose who we fall in and out of love with. So when I finally find that special person, I want to say to her without a doubt that "I want you but I don't need you." and fully understand what I truly mean. I know what your thinking. How can a girl truly appreciate hearing that from a person that they love? To get a better understanding of how I think, what I'm about to say will help put those ridiculous questions and doubts to rest. So here's my response to back up my claim of needing and wanting. I would say to her that I would never need you. You would never ever be a necessity in my life. But I will forever want you. You are my desire, my choice. I don't need to be with you, I want to be with you. So every time I touch you, kiss you, embrace you, hold your hand, make love to you know that I can be anywhere in the world that I can and want to be but next to you is what makes me happy.
Music is the purest form of art I know. There are no limits when it comes to emotional expression. Have you ever just sat around and allow music to just express your inner most thoughts and feelings? We've all been there. When you're feeling happy, angry, sad, in love, or heartbroken, there's a song out there for you. We all have that one song that expresses that moment in time or those feelings you can't immediately express with words. Without music, the world would be completly different. (Not to mention we'll be bored out of our minds....hehehe.) I've heard that some people actually blame music for the a lot of things in todays society. Music may be powerful but its should never be used as an excuse. If your looking for something to blame.... Take one good look in the mirror. When someone gets shot, do you blame the gun or the company that makes it? Or do you blame the person who made the choice of killing another. You can't ignore the fact that an individual makes that choice of taking someones life. When children shoot other children, you can't help but wonder what their parents have taught them about life and the repercussions of their actions. Regardless of what excuses we like use to explain why things are the way they are in the world, we should start from within. We have yet to explore our inner souls, but I do know music can speak to us at a level that we currently do not understand and should never try to. Maybe one day we will but there are some mysteries that are better left unexplained. (I still like to believe in magic! How would you feel if love can be explained psychologically and scientifically. It kinda takes away all the magic from it huh...) Music will always find a way to move you and play to your soul. It transends a lot of the problems that world may have today. So when you're mad at the world, or even feeling a little down, put on some music and let it take you away from your worries.. or allow yourself to let out those feelings you try to hold in. Music knows no gender or race, it is both timeless and can be found every corner of the world. Music will forever be a part of your soul and our culture. Now that you know how I feel about music.... what's your favorite song?
Now Playing: "Collide" by Howie Day
There's too many movie that are out there. Instead of listing them all, it would be better for me to tell you why I love movies. A movie can make you laugh, cry, think, shock, horrify, and even inspire. What's your favorite movie?
I watch a lot of sporting events, especially Raider or Laker Games. When it comes to TV shows its a bit hard to catch when you're out and about. I only watch a few channels on cable. (Discovery, History, ESPN, and Cartoon Network... who doesn't love cartoons?)
Any psychology book. I've read my share of books but have no need to list all of them. (Trust me on this one.) Lately I've read more articles, published works in magazines, scientific findings & papers.
My Grandparents, my mother, and my Aunt. These are the people that made the greatest contributions in my life. My grandparents set the culture, values and voices them through experience. My mother is my strength, faith in the humanity and god. My Aunt is more of the my intellectual influence and serves as a guide between the generations. She helped me understand my hertiage and my role for our family. I have many heroes in my life. These are the ones that changed the world by using their faith, ideas, intelligence or sheer bravery to reach into the unknown. There are a lot more heroes out there trying their best to make this world a better place. So choose your heroes wisely, for they show you the battles they have won for humanity and the way to continue the fight against injustice and evils of the world. Do what you believe is right and true. Aspire to become the hero that you were born to be and remember those fallen heroes that have paved the way. You may not see yourself as a hero but unfortunately you're not the one who chooses. Look around you. It can be a family member, close friend, or simply a passing admirer. So the real question is... what kind of hero are you?
