I am still learning and experiencing things and feel like I cannot state a truth. So I guess one truth I know for sure is that I cannot state one. A paradox.

I try not to think in terms of good and bad but more in terms of helpful or unhelpful in regards to specific moral codes and goals.

What is truth? I think stating a truth could be dangerous, because we are locking something in and therefore making it harder for ourselves to change beyond that certain thought or concept.

Knowing that a paradox is required for life as we know it to exist allows me to give up trying constantly to understand it and instead just feel it and enjoy it.

Sometimes we can't help the way we feel, but we can mostly choose how we respond to it.

I try to make sure I have a helpful perspective so when emotional pain comes up, it doesn't get out of hand.

It's difficult to change, because I have to admit that I have been previously living in a less compassionate and loving way. Sometimes we just want to be right instead of fully conscious.

For me, it's the slow release of my ego and certain belief systems that I identify with that give me comfort and an identity, and it's scary to let go of that.

Passion overcomes obstacles.

I have good legs, and why to hide them?

When I was playing for tips in college, I felt a fire in my soul. I had the same principle of focus that I had learned playing football.

He that dies in extreme old age will be reduced to the same state with him that is cut down untimely.

No one can stop you from doing exactly what you want to do. If you can accept that the cavalry won't come, and if you can be the cavalry, it gives you a chance to be happy.
