Getting it done...

It has been an interesting year for me. A lot of changes in my life and I have reflected on a lot of these things recently. I’m happy with some, not so happy/satisfied with others. But that’s life. I’m glad that I started back reading. Television is really getting old. It’s so redundant and filled with a lot of negative garbage. I understand that it is entertainment, but sometimes it goes a little far for me. I have a few shows that I watch, but only a FEW. I just finished The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho which was a very good book, it made me think about my life and what I am pursuing. I definitely recommend it. Now I am reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle and it seems good also. I feel much better after reading for an hour and learning something than sitting in front of the tube like a zombie LOL.

So what is in store this year…I’m not sure. I have some plans and I will be making changes to pursue those plans. But I also expect life to happen and when it does I will make moves accordingly. I definitely will travel this year and explore Tampa and Florida more. I’ll also get back to golfing because I enjoying that A LOT, although it is extremely frustrating at times LOL. Other than that…I’m glad that I woke up today healthy with the ability to enjoy this life another day.

The Crying Rose.

After yesterday, I have A LOT more respect for people who get tattoos. When Bryant was coloring in my Crying Rose I felt like I was going to cry sometimes LOL….Not really but it REALLY hurt. But I am so happy with the finished piece. Bryant at Fat Ink tattoo is the MAN!!! Very great artist and I appreciate him taking my idea of a Crying Rose dedicated to my Grandparents and turning it into this finished piece. It’s amazing to me how some people have that artistic eye and can see things that other people can’t even image. This tattoo was a vision of mine almost 3 years ago and it’s amazing for me to finally see it become a reality.

Up Early…

Happy New Year to all my family, friends, associates, etc. I woke up early this morning elated to be allowed to see another day, stand up tall, and breathe the fresh air as I took my morning walk. What’s on my plate for 2010…I don’t know. As I said in a recent status, one thing that has continued to slap me in the face during my life is expect the unexpected. There are many things that I would love to experience or see happen during this next year and I will do whats necessary to achieve those things, but life happens and I will have to maneuver accordingly.

So I am not going to list out the things that I want to experience but I will say that I will continue to break the mold. I am never surprised by my achievements because I know that I am capable of great things. I must continue to strive for greatness to achieve the things in life that many people are not willing to work for. Life is short, we only get one chance. Why waste it???

So Live, Love, and Laugh…

On another note…the tattoo is getting color (finished) on Saturday. Pictures will come shortly after.
