Happy Cinco De Mayo to all my Amigos in Mexico and
around the world and wish you all a pleasant day of happiness, love,
celebration and good old fun.
Now on to
brass tacks. A lot of people take life a little too seriously and don’t really
look around to see that there’s more to life than being miserable. Some of you
may not have the best looking house or drive the most bad ass car, hell you may
not even had the best education but yet, it’s all about how you see the world
in your mind. There are people who try to make themselves happy by dressing to
look better, fill the house with nice things and think that because they’re hot
shit they ought to be happy by everyone’s standards, hate to break it to you
but that’s just making yourself look worse.
To really
celebrate life is to not only embrace yourself (not in an egotistical kind of
way) but to embrace what you have. Building your body internally is a practice
that takes time, patience and to practice finding peace within yourself. You
can love and take care of people and have a blast with the people you love but
if you don’t celebrate who you are both in body and spirit, the rest won’t come
as easy. I’ve been practicing Chi Kung lately to enhance not only my body’s
energy but enhance my inner strength and spirit into a blissful state.
Getting the
body moving not just by training but by learning various movements and methods
that give you results, not just by building muscle or losing weight but moving
your body that has you smiling and releasing those endorphins instead of
looking like someone just murdered your ass. Move your body and it doesn’t
matter how you do it, you can dance, lift heavy weights, do muscle control,
restructure your physique or even practice various forms of Yoga & Chi Kung
and even take a walk somewhere.
Remember about
embracing what you have? It’s not always physical objects that embrace what you
have. Just because you have a certain artifact or piece of jewelry laying
around doesn’t make you the most bad ass person. By embracing what you have,
it’s what you don’t see. It’s the energy that surrounds you with love,
compassion and beautiful inner smiles with that radiant glow that lights up the
room. You can put things anywhere you want like a pumpkin on Halloween, a tree
at Christmas or a Buddhist statue on your mantle but if your energy isn’t
there, than these objects are just that, objects. Celebrate life with love and
spirit and embrace the energy around you, if it becomes negative or dirty as it
often does, change it and harness your inner power from within.
