Tao Te Ching - Verse 75
When rulers take grain so that they may feast,
Their people become hungry;
When rulers take action to serve their own interests,
Their people become rebellious;
When rulers take lives so that their own lives are maintained,
Their people no longer fear death.
When people act without regard for their own lives
They overcome those who value only their own lives.

I believe myself to be an open person. I think that people, whether good or evil, have the right to believe in what
they will, regardless of if I think it..s proper. We run into a problem only when their goals and actions disrupt my own.
God is a part of us, much as we are a part of him. It..s not my job to judge the
choices of others. I simply accept. Some find this comforting, hence where I draw my diverse selection of friends.
I am a Leo. I find comfort in the safety of good friends. I seek to protect, with clannish instincts and behavior.
Have you found salvation? Have you found a purpose for existing, for waking up tomorrow? The path that is right for you
will reveal itself. Trust yourself and your instincts. They are given to you for a purpose, and NO ONE should tell you
otherwise.
Martial Arts, Success, and Computer Sciences are my passion. They involve above-average intelligence and wisdom. To liken
Martial Arts to fighting is like comparing rocket science to arson. There are thousands of years of insight and mastery
devoted to it..s development, and an infinite number of secrets and tricks that elude the casual observer.
The study of the body, its movements, its sciences, and how we interact with the rest of the world is not a closed study.
Everything from how we breath and speak to how we move and react are a science no one has yet mastered fully.
Developing our spiritual center and third eye are just as important as developing our muscles in this practice. I look
forward to the decades of practice that lie ahead...
Likewise, my studies in the computer sciences have opened my eyes to another world. The world of the 0 and the 1,
where everything is explained logically and designed by humans, our most advanced science yet. I firmly established
my interest in this at an early age, and plan to continue in this as far as I can see. Computers represent a limitless
potential for me, the potential to be a digital god of sorts. ( Don..t be alarmed, I mean that in a different way)
Computers allow us, as humans, to creatively construct/destroy anything that we want. From creating Virtual
Worlds to programming defensive security code, our potential is only limited by our own intelligence and the power
of the computer we work on. I see a very bright future with this power, the power to program genetic code and
eventually the fabric of time and space itself. Sound odd? Think of how much we..re progressed in the past 20 years.
Imagine 1000 years from now...
I realized a long time ago that this is the only chance I..ll ever get to live to the fullest. Whether I..m young or old,
I am going to do exactly what I need to do to get ahead and create happiness for myself and those around me.
