Spring cleaning

So many memories.


This weekend was a whirlwind of memories, deaths and illness. Sounds bad huh? It wasn't though. I was cleaning on Saturday night when I came across so many papers, cards and memories. It was nice to travel back in time but even more to value the ones I am making each day. One day these will end up in a box for me to reflect upon fondly.

I wasn't feeling so well the other day. I had yet another migraine. Something good came out of it though. Sleep. I slept most of the day, migraine left and I feel more energized today than before.

I also got to work on my business plan. It was nice to break down a dream and finally find the time to dig deep into my vision of what this crazy dream will become. Planning is key. Feeling is key as well.

Change one person, change the world.

Current Reads

I have read quite a bit in the last little while but the pace slowed just before I found this blog again.


I have read: A Dream with a Deadline by Jacques Horovitz
Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
For One More Day by Mitch Albom

I just picked up: The Dream Giver by Bruce Wilkinson

I will report some quotes and what I think of each book.

Muay Time has passed

Wow, can you believe it has been almost 5 years since I last blogged? That is just crazy. I didn't even know this site existed anymore. 


Going back and reading the few posts and comments completely opened my eyes again. My eyes are opened to learning and recording like I once did in my past.  In an instant I was brought back to a place where things were positive, challenging, happy, and full of growth and although I still have those elements in my life now, the energy is gone.

Perhaps it was the time, the age, or the fact that I was not working and just trained. Out of my element, forcing change and challenge. Could it just be me? How much have I actually grown since 2004. So much has happened since then.

Some of those people who once boasted so much support for me, I barely even speak to anymore. However, a better way to look at things could be to say; how many new people have become close and now support me beyond my expectations.

The love I have for this sport has no waivered since those days. What has changed though is the amount I learned to love the growth aspect. Rather than look at it all as a difficult task, I look it with blissful optimism. You can't ask for much more than growth.

So cheers to this being my first blog of a new reinvented version of me.

Quotes, information, learning, all of it, will be kept on the up and up right here.

The disciple has returned.

I cant believe I spelled my own blog name wrong.
