Competition
During a convo with a teacher, I mentioned I coached high school basketball and he randomly just asked me,
“So do you like to win, or hate to lose”
Baffled. I sat there and thought about it, applied it to my life in everything where you could win or lose and said
“Sure I enjoy a win, but there are different types of winning. When you decide to compete, your competition...
The Simple Joys
Lying in bed doing chemistry and having my niece and nephew run into my room feeding me cookies. <3
The depth of music
I shall - stay real stay true stay holdin figures Never put a bitch over my niggas I shall never, cooperate with the law Never snake me I always hold you down in war If they take one of mine, I take one of theirs I never break the oath to the death I swear
Just lyrics to a song, but when put into action can create a bond stronger than many can understand. It would be the ideal but I’ve...
Runnin'
You know, I wonder if they’ll laugh when I am dead Why am I fighting to live, if I’m just living to fight Why am I trying to see, when there ain’t nothing in sight Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try Why am I dying to live, if I’m just living to die
Reality
It hits hardest when it’s hitting you.
A place to spend my quiet nights, time to unwind so much pressure in this life of mine, I cry at times, I once contemplated suicide, but when I held that 9 All I could see was my mama’s eyes. No one my struggles, they only see the trouble, its hard to carry on, when no one loves you
Love
My Nephew is turning 5 in a few months, I’ve watched him grow up from the day he was born he constantly amazes me with how much he learns and understands each day.
It makes my weeks, when my parents and my sister tell me about how he talks about during the week and wants to grow up to be like me. It gives me that much motivation to be a better person and lead by example for him. Although 18...
Listening verses Talking
So often in our lives, well mainly mine, people see or should I say HEAR me. I’m not a shy guy, I’m loud and outgoing. I’m pretty well known by the small community that surrounds me, but I do try to keep my personal life to myself.
When it comes to other people’s business I hear people yap about one thing to another and I’ll listen… But for me to then pass...

Well I’m still way behind, I should be in the 30’s for miles if I were on track for 100, but I made it through a solid 5 miles today.
Makes my running total 19/100mi
Not quitting just yet, If I hit 5 Miles a day for the rest of the month, I should be there… LOL we’ll see how that goes.
This Piano Thing...
This whole relearning thing might be a bit harder than I anticipated…

Sounds backwards, right? All you ever hear are girls complaining about all the assholes in the world; you’d think that once you finally find yourself a “nice” guy, he’d be a keeper. But a relationship with a truly kind man isn’t as great as you think.
Let’s say you recently got your heart broken…
Never be totally dependent on anyone because even...

through100miles:
I decided since I have a bit going on, I’d cut my run short this morning to 3miles, from 5. I figure it’s better to do a solid three than struggle with another 2…
BUT tonight I do plan on going on another run of at least 2 Miles to stay on track,but if I’m feeling good maybe another 3 and get me…
Homeless man killin it.
Hope comes from people like this. He has so little, but works with what he’s given and chooses to share that gift with others.

Day 1 is a success! Got 5 Miles in. It was a really ugly 5 miles but I finished it and it felt great.
540cal burned according to treadmill but I don’t really care about all that =]
5/100 - 95 to go!
