you should play it
the way you feel it
You can have anything you really want, but you can't have everything you want
LONG BEACH, CA
A free soul that can't be contained.
I feel that my life is controlled internally. If I want something, I make it happen. I don't wait around for things to go my way. I value my independence and don't like others to have control. When it comes to who's in charge, it's me. Life is a kingdom, and I am the grand ruler. I don't care much about what others think but they better care what I think!
Current motto: "Choose your battles"
Whenever I'm having a bad day, I just think about my stress prayer. Grant me the serenity to accept the things I can't change, the courage to change the things I can't accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I had to kill today because they pissed me off. Help me be careful of the toes I stepped on today as they may be connected to the ass that I may have to kiss tomorrow. Help me to always give 100% at work...12% on Monday, 23% on Tuesday, 40% on Wednesday, 20% on Thursday, and 5% on Fridays. And help me remember that... when I am having a really bad day, and it seems that people are trying to tick me off, that it takes 42 muscles to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger and tell them to bite me. Amen.
Break the stereotypes.
* Believe in yourself and take pride in what you do. Follow your dreams and strive for your goals. Confidence is contagious and people can sense if you have it or not. Life is a struggle and no one said it was easy, but what doesn't kill you will only make you stronger. I truly believe that I would not be the person I am today had it not been for the experiences that I've been through. Each obstacle I face makes me stronger and wiser. Believe in yourself and life will fall into place. The door is open to the future but the key is here and now. No more dwelling on the past for today has gone and tomorrow is already here. *
i'm a THINKER ... can't you tell?
CONTEMPLATE THIS:
Do we try something new, or stick to the tried-and-true?
Do we take a risk, or eat what's already on our dish?
Do we ponder a thrilling adventure, or contemplate what's on TV?
Do we walk over and meet that interesting stranger, or do we play it safe?
Do we indulge our heart, or cater to our fear?
The bottom-line question: Do we pursue what we want, or do we do what's comfortable?
For the most part, people choose comfort - the familiar, the time-honored, the well-worn but well-known. After a lifetime of choosing between comfort and risk, we are left with the life we currently have.
Watch your thoughts... they become words.
Watch your words... they become actions.
Watch your actions... they become habits.
Watch your habits... they become character.
Watch your character... it becomes your destiny.
