Have you noticed the beauty of our mortality? Every moment we share, the same moment is lost for eternity. But it makes this moment so much more beautiful, so much more precious. God created us this way so that we are living the way He can never live. He gave us what He can't have. For this reason, praise to the Lord. I had been looking for someone to complete my soul. Now I realize I should keep the ones that could complete my sentences. I wish I can take back a lot of choice I made. But does it really matter? Every mistake I make, just make me a better person next morning.
The greatest shame in life is when people never found their purpose, the meaning of their lives. They tend to live like zombies, well, another name is called "passive consumers". Coz honestly, If you haven't figured any of it out by 30, it's very unlikely that you will ever.let's take the long way home tonight
and just cruise along the boulevards
let's shine a little, we're the street lights
and dream ourselves away to mars
let's follow all the stars above
or maybe take the subway home
these days are mine
and I'm gonna take it slow
like the peaceful waters flow
I'll make it up as I go
that's all I really know
so let's take the long way home
let's cry a little if we wanna
or laugh out loud the best we can
let's meet the comfort of convenience
and search a silence deep within
Let's stay a while and take it easy
if that's something you can overcome
let's take a minute just to slip away
and linger here before it's gone
these days are mine
and I'm gonna take it slow
like the peaceful waters flow
I'll make it up as I go
that's all I really know
so let's take the long way home
Current goal:
1. To find out which 5 friends that can last. Then build on those friendships. Hundreds of friends is just crazy...
2. To be at least a lil more motivated with work
3. To cut down alchohol consumption
4. To play sports more often
Well, I am kinda a complicated yet very simple person.
Here is the superficial list of things I like to read and talk about: Fashion Health and fitness Travel Restaurant Cooking Clubbing Sports Movies School Economy Interest rate World event Small business Entrepreneurship Inflation Investment Stock market languages Culture History Psychology Science Gadgets Math Politics Martial Arts Fictions ... the list goes on...
Or deeper subjects like: Philosophy Morality Emotion Family Purpose Relationship Ambition The past Regrets Forgiveness Value Compassion Religion Currently watching:

Going wrong: Armin , Shah and Chris Jones

Currently reading:

Ha, about me...let's see:
I am Catholic; I am not religious but I try my best being the best Christian I could be
a Stoic Philosopher; please tell me you know what it is...
a reader; I read alot, and extremely fast...
a learner; people who stop learning after they "grew up", never did...
a traveler; whenever I go I try to speak the language, that's the only way to experience the life in the place
love sports (more playing than watching), basketball, tennis, racquetball, table tennis, martial art, boxing...
love history, I love to read about it and go places where things happened a long time ago.
love music, I would travel far to see a good DJ or a good band
an honest friend; probably too honest... if I consider you as a friend, everything I say is the truth and the truth only. And I detest people telling me things they don't mean.
a gold digger; things I enjoy cost quite a bit, the only reason to make money is to spend it, enjoy it, blow it off while having lots of fun with my friends... Can't say I master the art of it, but I am pretty good at helping my friends to make money.
These are some things I live by:
(Some from famous people and some by Sky)
We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand...but sometimes, we need to know when to fold
If you had an hour to live and could make just one phone call, who would it be to, what would you say...and why are you waiting?
Everything is so much more beautiful because we are mortal
Happiness is the easiest and the hardest thing to get because it's all in your head; expectation and perception; What we think we deserve, and what we think we got...
The truth only hurts when you choose to deny it, otherwise, sets you free
Experience without theory is blind, but theory without experience is mere intellectual play.
Stop wasting time talking about what you wanna do, what you wanna achieve, what you wanna see, where you wanna go... You'd never know how easy it is once you take the first step.
What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.
The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis
The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.
One must have a good memory to be able to keep the promises one makes.
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.
Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself
You need chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star
There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness
Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together
Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth
Our memory is only our own interpretation of the past, however, this interpretation defines who we are
Ultra 2008 - DJ Dan & D. Glaude, I think I am in the middle somewhere in the crowd
This is Tiesto
Real funny stuff...love it!!!
Really awesome music video
My fav prayer: "And shepherds we shall be,
For Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand,
That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti."
Ha, this is crazy...how do you know about me...hell, it's gonna take a long time or you gotta be the right person. My experience is kinda, how do I put it..., unusual...Here are some of the highlights...
Parents were never married nor ever really together
Didn't grow up with family nor relatives
Left the house at 13
Dropped out of highschool at 15
Moved to Seattle at 16 alone, didn't speak much English
Got in community college at 16
Started at University of Washington at 17
Moved to Atlanta alone at 18
Got my degree at 19
Completed grad school with master's degree at 21
Moved to Dallas at 21, started my first job
Got transferred to Austin at 23, received my second promotion
Started my real party life at 25 when I got my third promotion. Now I work in my own schedule.
Now I am 27...whew...feeling like I have lived a lifetime of being an adult...now I am alot more like a kid, LOL, just enjoy every single moment in my life. And I enjoy sharing my experience with kids I mentor.
I'll like to think that I am a philosopher. But things stop making sense when I start to fall. It's a bit scary to me and I am trying to understand it more. Guess I am still a learner.
