Life is What YOU Make of It!

There is this street that is long as can be, but not wide at all. The only way you can go is forward or back. In the beginning one wonders how to get off the trail. One wonders what else is possible. He also wonders what is at the end of the road that seems…

Today is the last day of this challenge. I’m extremely happy that it is. I don’t know if I will do this again, but like I’ve said in a couple of post ago I learned so much about myself and the direction that I want to go with this challenge. I didn’t think much about…

This challenge is almost over and I think I’m the happiest person. I learned so much about myself and want to let everyone know. I Can Do Anything Yep. I knew that before and now I know that even more. I simply can do anything. If I wanted to go to medical school and become…

The intent, purpose and reasoning for this discussion on Education is to get people to realize that we don’t stop learning. We at times and more than anything we learn what we want to learn. We read the books, magazine, television shows or whatever we find interesting. We actively take interest in what is important…

“You make a valid point about education. I do agree many people do their best to receive and education just to get a 9 to 5 jobs (myself included). I think the purpose of education is to achieve our own agendas (now this is just my opinion so don’t bight my head off). I believe…

Education. What is it and how important is it really, especially someone who is out of school and just working? We all know that education is important in our lives. We spent a good portion of our lives getting educated. When we leave formal education we don’t want to ever go back and be victimize…

The new basketball season starts today. The reason I know that is with the news coverage and people at work telling me so. It seems that every year my attention for basketball continues to get pushed back. I don’t watch it as much as the year before and I don’t even feel bad because of…

“Most of what we inherit is so clearly correct it goes unseen. It fits the world seamlessly. It is the world. But despite its richness an variability, the well-defined world we inherit doesn’t quite fit each one of us, individually. Most of us spend most of our time in other peoples’ worlds–working at predetermined jobs,…

Yesterday I talked about setting some time to yourself. I don’t think we allow ourselves that time to ourselves and I’m going to try to help out to give yall some suggestions on how I go about doing so. I used to always feel that I needed to be around people to have fulfillment. I…

I just don’t know what to write anymore. This challenge is killing me right now. It is a worthy challenge. I just wish I had more to talk about. I guess some of the things I’m looking forward to getting back to is post twice or so a week. I know people would like me…

I had a blog post in mind for today, but just couldn’t resist getting some more sleep. I don’t know if I’ve talked about this before and it came up a couple of times during the week for me and it is your passion. Your passion is whatever it is. I don’t know what it…

I met this bum well over a month ago, more like two month. I said hello and he didn’t say anything. He seemed friendly and I felt sorry for him instantly. With his appearance, hunchback and his nice old man look I thought he would be a good person to photograph. I thought it would…

I haven’t gotten anything done at all. The website design is actually going to take me longer than anticipated. Learning about myself in the area of sells is taking a longer time because I keep jumping from one idea and concept to another. And when it comes down to it I’m not getting much of…

It has been 19 post and 19th days since I started this challenge. It has been fun and learn about myself and also about what people like about what I write. The negative blog post will for sure stop and know that they rub people the wrong way. At times people think that something is…

New day, new week. It has been two weeks since my schedule switch from working 4 days a week and back to 5 days. I don’t like the shorter weekends. I loved the fact that I had 4 (long) days of being at the office and didn’t have to see my boss all of those…

I go through these spells at times. I think they are okay. It is hard to write a topic worth something every single day of the month. I also go through this when I’m journalling everyday. The shit is hard. I used to get down on myself and wondered if this was normal. I thought…

I have a confession to make. Not too many people know this. Throughout the week I barely watch television. Throughout the years in fact I have toned down the amount of television I watch and usually use my time with reading books, writing, working on my business, walking outside with my fiancee, doing crafts and…

This is an essay I wrote a year ago. It amazes me the power of writing and feeling what I felt at the time how it all comes out. This was written in one setting and unedited. I like to say that my two passions are competing with each other and at times, well actually,…

This is a continuation of yesterday’s post. For the most part in business, reading books is bullshit. Everyone nods their heads and tells themselves that they will not do those mistakes and they end up doing them and costing them, heartache and monetarily. The amazing thing about everything is that once that lesson(s) is learned…

I have been on a tear lately. I don’t know how to explain it, but it feels good. I have been really sticking myself out there with this business stuff. I have had my ups and downs, but the whole experience has been healthy. What I’m learning about myself? I’m learning that I have some…

I really just don’t know why I love black and white photographs so much. It could be the taking away of color and just seeing the image as raw, innocent and easier to interpret. I think it is more emotional and people react to it differently. I was talking to a friend a couple of…

On Saturday my fiancée and I decided to get some fresh air and enjoy the nice weather we have been getting in Houston. We started late, but was extremely excited that we made it. The place of interest was the Japanese Garden. There were plenty of plants that lost their scent and the Houston weather…

I don’t know what to write right now. I go through this often as I figure out what I want to write. I’ve been writing for more than 600 days and haven’t looked back sense. I love it and have seen how it has changed since the very first day. This year I would say…

It is there. We all know it is there. We don’t see it, but we feel it whenever incidents happen. There was a phase of my life a couple of years that I constantly thought about it. It scares the shit out of me and if I think about it now for a period of…

I took this photograph a little more than a year ago. Who’ve I showed it too has asked me how I took it. I told them some bullshit that I overexposed for the sky and wanted to get the reflection of the patio inside the glass. All of that is bullshit. It’s just is. I…

Today is a new day. I don’t know what to expect from it. I guess I don’t know what to write either. Whenever I’m writing I tend to have those times where I don’t even know what to write about. And the best way to get anything out is to just continue to write. Not…

Yesterday was a good day for me. My brother came by and we talked mostly about me. He is good for that and glad that I was able to get a chance to spend some quality time with him. We talked about my finances, about the direction I want to go with my photography and…

Have you ever felt this way. Where you are somewhere where you don’t want to be and constantly thinking how it would be on the other side? I’m sure many of us have felt that way and know that the wondering and imagining can just drive us crazy. The sad truth of the matter is…

It has been some time sense I’ve talked about my home that I purchased well over 6 months ago. All is well and looking forward to making great memories here. The whole process was overwhelming but think that as long as we got the house we can see what it is that we wanted to…

I’ve thought about this a couple of months ago and was reluctant to write about it because it was just negative, well not to me but to other people who would have read it. Since I have to come up with new material here it is. Here is Me in My Head a Couple of…
