"Solitude is one of the most precious things in the human spirit. It is different from loneliness. When you are lonely, you become acutely conscious of your own separation. Solitude can be a homecoming to your own deepest belonging. One of the lovely things about us as individuals is the incommensurable in us. In each person, there is a point of absolute nonconnection with everything else and with everyone. This is fascinating and frightening. It means that we cannot continue to seek outside ourselves for things we need from within. The blessings for which we hunger are not to be found in other places or people. These gifts can only be given to you by yourself. They are at home at the hearth of your soul."
"Every positive change in our life begins with a clear,unequivocal decision that you are going to either do something ,or stop doing something,When things fall apart it is our nature to want to put them back together as they were, (back to our comfort) but the reality is: even with the best intentions, a broken situation will never, ever, be able to go back to the way it was. We have to learn to utilize our unease and know that no matter how desperate and painful life is, everyday is changed and forever altered. Some days the change is so minute it is barely audible, sometimes change is so hideously loud it shatters our eardrums, destroys the way we hear the world, and we will be forced to hear with a different understanding or we will simply be deaf from that moment on."
"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly."And only with the heart one can feel deeply." Love is the only answer to which there is no question."
"We can be healed of what has harmed us, even if the process is slow and the recovery difficult. Our souls are made of sterner stuff than wisps of light and air. We are not fragile creatures floating through a hard edged world, but human spirits tested by the measure of endless time, honed by our experience, brought to wisdom by deep struggles. We are resilient beings, born to live, shaped to endure, created to become. Each path we follow may be a climb through challenge, but the strength of love will see us through, healing us as we go, leaving behind the burdened heart and opening a way to forgiveness and renewal. Do not despair. Even in the midst of what is old, you are being made new."
"We stand shivering at the door,terrified and panicked that we have lost the keys.
We waste lifetimes in the waiting because in the haze,the painted fog of our fear,
we forget to check the handle and discover it has never been locked at all."
"The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction."

"I don't love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only what they defend.
Warriors don't work hard, perfecting their martial arts skills, because they love fighting. They don't hurt, bleed, and sweat in order to brag about their skills. True warriors don't train for glory or recognition. They train to protect those who cannot protect themselves - their family, the weak, the elderly, and those who deserve their protection.
The simple-minded pursue the warrior arts for immature, selfish reasons. They want recognition and people patting them on the back, telling them how great they are or how tough they are. They couldn't care less about protecting others, only about themselves. In reality, they are weak. They need the constant praise of others to validate themselves because inside, they haven't found the peace of the way - the true way of the warrior. They need a wise teacher to teach them the right path. This is one sentence as to why, I am "The UFC's Underdog"
The true warrior has found this path. He or she understands the difference between training to look tough and training to be tough, to be a weapon, a weapon that is not waved like a banner to get everyone's attention, but rather a weapon that is always quietly there, ensuring the protection of those around him.
He trains because he has understood the value of the warrior lifestyle and he has made a decision to live his life as a warrior. He trains because that is who he is, he needs no recognition, no accolades, no praise. His spirit, mind, and life are at peace with exactly who he is and what he does. He is a true warrior - a man of the way.! I stand before the Social Media, The World, So differently then any other man before us! I surpassed (12years) now in Fighting #Mma and my Legacy is not nearly completed as I would like. The New life with #Bands has taken over my life, I would tell, no I would say this,. 2016 is an opportunity for Change!!"

"How can you be open to learning the truth when you are unwilling to let go of false ideas that you have been taught? There are many things in your life that you hold to as the truth because they were taught to you by those in authority or those who you trust, but they are not really true. These falsehoods have been ingrained deep into your psyche through years of repetition, and they place limits on what you can do and who you can become. It is these false "truths" that are the hardest to unlearn, and are the most damaging to you.
You may have heard over and over again, how you cannot do this or that. You may have been told that you are too small, too slow, or not smart enough. You may have been taught wrong beliefs, by well-intentioned people who completely love you but just didn't know any better. These people were not trying to hurt you, but rather to protect you, but that fact doesn't change the fact that they taught you wrong. They were doing the best they knew how, but unfortunately they were taught wrong as well.
You must be open to learning the truth. Never be afraid to explore new knowledge, new philosophies, and new things. Don't be afraid, obtaining knowledge is a good thing. But first, you must unlearn those things which are not true. After all, you cannot add more tea to a cup which is already full to the brim. You must empty your cup of milk before you can fill it with tea. Only by unlearning that which holds you back, can you learn that which will help you move forward in your journey."

"Are you living in divine love
Does the spirit guide your steps
Do you look to be transfigured
In this life or the next
Why wait to look back and smile
Lift your hopes and eyes
On the journey of love
You should expect surprise
For who are connected with
The higher self, the one
Sent you here to discover
A life that's filled with fun
Love is the environment
"Of the human soul
And when with love we act
We will reach our goal
Of passion and purpose
Of growth and many friends
A life to demonstrate
Loves journey never ends"

"Every moment is the most important moment of your life.
No future time is better than now to let down your guard and love.
Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone.
Your posture can shine your heart, or transmit anxiety.
Your breath can radiate love, or muddy the room in depression.
Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom.
Your every act can open hearts and minds. Opening from heart to all, you live as a gift to all.
In every moment, you are either opening or closing.
Right now, you are choosing to open and give fully, or you are waiting."
