"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved" ~Confucius
Entry: August 28th 2008 Thursday. Busy Boy...
I eat hardy food from the homeland, Cuban; Spanish. I eat along with good company, whom which prefer to be nameless at this time. Nameless, much like how I will treat this entry not about my company but about other things.
I eat, and I eat with felling, a bit annoyed and flustered about current events in my life, so I wash it away with Paella and Sangria. Up and down, so sudden with the stranger than fiction.
~Debra Mancuso

'Work and self-worth are the two factors in pride that interact with each other and that tend to increase the strong sense of pride found in superior work teams. When people do something of obvious worth, they feel a strong sense of personal worth"

Loyalty…
its hard to come by, still, its beats any game anyone has to offer.
My stubbornness’ to submit to a hopeless battle is what causing my headache and heartache.
It is getting hard to sell and buy into the propaganda when you know the truth.
Out in the desert of ten thousand distractions, these ten words can be the path to get you back home:
"Stay the most true to what is the most you"
~Laura Teresa Marquez
It's winding down. Seasons are coming to a close. I laid back, I let things happen as they naturaly may without making much of a fuss about the results. This was an interesting season. I learned, and that is always a good thing, as long as you learn something, but when you learn something you sometimes have to make an effort to remember it when you need to. What is even better than learning something, is, discovering. Discovering sticks, to discover goes right to the instinct, meaning, there is no need to try and remember when you discover, that's a rare.
"First, be worthy of trust, live with honor and integrity, be honest, keep your promises, and do what's right even when it costs more than you want to pay"

"You are driving in your car, and there are two things in front of your eyes, a dead bug on your car windshield and the road, so, what are you looking at? Cause you can only choose to look at one of those things at time"

Jeanette Lee, Rolando Aravena (reflected off of the corner) of Thorsten Hohmann's picture-frame of fame...
All I can be familiar with, is…
I’m not going to remember how I got it in the hole. I am not going to remember how I missed getting it in the hole and I am not going to try and recollect as I am shooting, what I am doing.
I’m just going to try and be in the moment, not beat myself up, or pat my self on the back, or wonder with the would of could of should of as I am trying to do the best I can at the moment.
Try and remember these important guiding principle of your match William, and with a little luck... along with your opponent giving you an E8, S8, S8; everything should be cherry:)
A (Tom), the supervisor and in charge of management of a league. B (Joe), a player from another league, and C, (Harry), a player moving from one league to another cause he’s not happy in his current league.
B: Hey Tom, Harry is too good to be in your league, you shouldn’t let him play in it.
A: Hey Joe, can I get the phone number to where you work?
B: Why do you need my work number?
A: So I can give you a call and tell you how to do your Job…
Anna and the King of Siam
Anna: Thank you for seeing me Your Majesty.
I was told by your prime minister that this matter was none of my concern.
King: It is none of Mem's concern.
And King is seeing you now to tell you same himself.
Anna: Forgive me Your Majesty…
King: I do not wish for you to talk more on this, Mem.
To king or anyone else.
Anna: I was only trying…
King: Tuptim broke law!
Anna: By loving someone? "Sacrifice your life for truth?"
"Persecute no man."
Are these not the teachings of Buddha?
King: I am King. And I say enough!
Anna: You asked me to always tell you what I think.
King: What you think and what you do…
and how and when you do them are not the same thing.
If you believe I wish to execute this girl.
But now, because you say to court you can tell king what to do,
I cannot intervene as I had planned.
Anna: Intervene? After they're tortured?
King: Yes! But you, a woman and a foreigner,
have made it seem king at your command.
You have made me appear weak.
And impossible for me to step in and not lost face!
Anna: But you are the king.
King: To remain such, I cannot undermine ability to command loyalty,
which I must have to keep country secure.
Anna: You have the power
King: Now is not the time to change the way that things are done!
Anna: Well if not now, then when?
How many more people must die so that you might save face?!
King: Go home, Mem. You help enough for one day.
"What you think and what you do… and how and when you do them are not the same thing. If you believe I wish to execute this girl. But now, because you say to court you can tell king what to do, I cannot intervene as I had planned"
