25 Bruce Lee Quotes
- Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system.
- What you habitually think largely determines what you will ultimately become
- Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.
- Reality is apparent when one ceases to compare. — There is “what is” only when there is no comparison at all, and to live with what is, is to be peaceful.
- A good teacher protects his pupils from his own influence
- To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.
- Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.
- If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.
- Do not deny the classical approach, simply as a reaction, or you will have created another pattern and trapped yourself there.
- Real living is living for others.
- I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.
- Many people dedicate their lives to actualizing a concept of what they should be like, rather than actualizing themselves. This difference between self-actualization and self-image actualization is very important. Most people live only for their image.
- It’s not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.
- The stillness in stillness is not the real stillness; only when there is stillness in movement does the universal rhythm manifest.
- As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
- A good martial artist does not become tense, but ready. Not thinking, yet not dreaming. Ready for whatever may come. When the opponent expands, I contract; and when he contracts, I expand. And when there is an opportunity, “I” do not hit, “it” hits all by itself.
- If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Moving, be like water. Still, be like a mirror. Respond like an echo.
- Things live by moving and gain strength as they go.
- Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.
- A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.
- If you don’t want to slip up tomorrow, speak the truth today.
- A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough.
- The knowledge and skills you have achieved are meant to be forgotten so you can float comfortably in emptiness, without obstruction.
- If you want to learn to swim jump into the water. On dry land no frame of mind is ever going to help you.
- If there is a God, he is within. You don’t ask God to give you things, you depend on God for your inner theme.

"The best kind of people are the ones that come into your life, and make you see the sun where you once saw clouds. The people that believe in you so much, you start to believe in you too. The people that love you, simply for being you. The once in a lifetime kind of people."
"Up Ahead"
just up ahead
there's a new world
waitin' for us
just around the bend
there are blue skies
stretchin' out far and wide
there in the mirror
are the struggles
we left behind
deadlines and bills
chaos and stress
never enough time
see those distant peaks
glistenin' in the sun
they're callin' out to us
my love
and the adventure's
just begun

Paul Coelho
Ask a flower in the field: ‘Do you feel useful? After all, you do nothing but produce the same flowers over and over?’
And the flower will answer: ‘I am beautiful, and beauty is my reason for living.’
Ask the river: ‘Do you feel useful, given that all you do is to keep flowing in the same direction?’
And the river will answer: ‘I’m not trying to be useful, I’m trying to be a river.’
Nothing in this world is useless in the eyes of God. Not a leaf from a tree falls, not a hair from your head, not even an insect dies because it was of no use. Everything has a reason to exist.
‘I’m useless’ is the answer you give yourself.
Soon that answer will poison you and you will die while still alive, even though you still walk, eat, sleep and try to have a little fun whenever possible.
Don’t try to be useful. Try to be yourself: that is enough, and that makes all the difference.

Legend of the Gremlin Bell
As the story goes, an old gray-beard was riding home from Mexico, with saddlebags loaded full of toys and trinkets for some kids in an orphanage near where he lived. It was a cold night in the high deserts just north of the border. As he rode he thought of rides past, epic journeys with long lost friends and the many nights just like this spent in the saddle.
Ahead in the small beam of his old headlamp he thought he saw something. As he rode on it appeared again, this time there were more of them. Tiny little creatures that seemed to dart in and out of the beam as fast as the wind. They were dark little dodgy spirits, quick, and all but translucent in the moonlight—they were road gremlins. Before he could react they were on the bike. As he mashed on the brakes the front tire blew, and the old rear drum brake that had served him well for years locked up.
When he came to he was nearly ten yards from his bike. One saddle bag had been torn loose and was lying next to him in the cold, hard packed dirt. In the light of the moon he could see his bike, the little spirit like road gremlins dancing on top. He raised himself up to his elbows, where he could see them more clearly, and they caught a glimpse of him too. That’s when they began to approach. Slowly, almost curiously, they stalked towards him. As they advanced he picked up the only thing that was within reach, the saddle bag, and began to wave it at them trying to keep them at bay. From inside the bag came a ringing noise.
He noticed that if he shook the bag the little gremlins would fall back, plugging their ears in retreat. He quickly unstrapped the bag and dug out two sleigh bells from a set of toy reindeer buried in the bag. As he knelt there shaking the bells the gremlins retreated off into the darkness.
As if attracted like a moth to a flame, two staggered lights approached from the distance, and came upon the lone rider in the darkness. To the lone rider they seemed like angels coming upon him with wings, guided by the sound of the bells. The two riders helped the old gray-beard brush himself off and gather his belongings. They set up camp and talked long into the night, about the old man’s brush with the road gremlins, and of many rides past. The old man offered to pay, but as-is biker tradition, the two men would not accept any form of repayment.
In the morning the men helped the gray-beard patch his tire and limp to a little service station in the next town. Again, as they prepared to go their separate ways, the men refused payment. The old man had suspected this, so in the early morning hours just before dawn, he had awakened and attached two bells, one to each of his angel rider’s bikes. As the old man watched his new friends roll out of the dusty service station driveway, he thought he could hear the ringing of bells over the low rumble of the bikes.
Hope
you are warm and dry.
Ready for the storm etc.
Looks like it will still be raining when I am leaving.
Text Tony and told him I may need to bolt as soon as he gets here in the AM so I can avoid the weather.
The
"Empath" post and the
"...Watch her walk..."post both got threes.
You trying to say some thing Lucy?
Vehicles
Buick
We went and got the title transferred. When transferring between relatives (step parents and sons and daughters are considered relatives) you do not have to pay the tax to transfer the title. Total cost $21 :-). Tags are still good till next January, (Janet's already paid them till then). Next Jan I will have to pay the tax and then the tags will expire with the truck and the bike in Nov (My birthday) just like always. Anyway, $21, the Buick is mine\ours\his when the time comes.
Truck.
Going to be $3800. Supercharger makes it so. The engine will be a reconditioned Nissan frontier engine that had 80,000 miles on it. It will be exactly like the one it had in it that I got 196,000 miles out of. 2 year 24,000 mile warranty, $100. The garage I am dealing with doesn't mess with engines that have been involved in roll overs, fires, or front end collisions. Place also has six months same as cash :-). Wonderful. So I am pretty sure this is what I am going to do. I'll decide by Thursday and let them know. I'd rather have my truck with a reconditioned Nissan Frontier engine with 80,000 miles on it than have anything else. That truck has become like family. Once it is back up and running? I'm only looking at driving back and forth to Louisville 4 or 5 months a year, 6000-8000 miles. I'll get a lil back on taxes and I'll put that toward the engine. I don't ever plan on getting Joanna's child support but if I do, that will go toward the engine as well, any balance left at the end of six months I'll put on a 0.00% interest card till I can pay it off. That's the plan.
Love ya Bambi.
Where did you go in Skype last night?
Huh?
Lil Miss Real Woman lol.

Jeremiah 17:8
"...It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit..."
Night Lucy.
Love you.
Think
somebody said something today about
"Any thought of love lifts the whole vibration of the universe."
Yeah, well...
"You're about as aggravating as they come...
You know that Lucy?"
Lots of other couples throughout history aggravated the shit out of each other as well Lucy.
Maybe cause they were so crazy about each other?
Thats my guess.
I'll go with that :-).
So
I looked around on cars.com to see if I could find another 4x4 truck with less than 80,000 miles (the amount of miles on the reconditioned engine they can put in my truck) for under $3800.
Yeah...much like Chad and I thought, there aren't any.
Anyway, I just wanted to exercise due diligence and make sure, so I did.
So
I told my buddy that my life was becoming surreal, that people were already knowing somehow what I wanted to talk to them about. Oh they all play good game Lucy, but you can tell when someone has already heard\read what you're telling them, you just can, the shock factor just isn't there.
Anyway, I also told him that a lot of people around me these days have this "Boy if you only knew what was about to happen to you." sort of feel about them.
His response:
He is also my friend who said: "Stay humble, it keeps the door open." When I asked him about how to handle the blessings that seem to be coming.
I loves me some Mr. Lash :-).
OG, as he is affectionately known.
See why?
Love you Lucy.

If you knew yourself for even one moment, if you could just glimpse your most beautiful face, maybe you wouldn’t slumber so deeply in that house of clay. Why not move into your house of joy and shine into every crevice! For you are the secret Treasure-bearer, and always have been. Didn’t you know?
Okay
then :-).
I take it somebody really wants to go with me to McDonalds on Date night in my old Nissan truck :-).
Makes me real happy because I could have gone either way.
A part of me was saying, that truck was you, and like living here in this location, it has outlived it's usefulness, it's not who you are going to be here before much longer.
Another part was saying, you love that truck, do what you have to do, keep it, it's what you have always wanted.
Apparently, somebody else loves my old Nissan truck as well.
That makes me very, very happy :-).
Cause you know, it does have, "Character" and all :-).
Love you Virgie.
Threes
and fours and fives and sixes oh my!
$3800 for a new engine for the truck.
I want to get it done but that is a lot of money.
Wish I knew how bad that future lil pretty wife of mine wanted to ride with me to McDonalds on date night.
Might help me make a decision here.
I told them to give me a day or two to decide.
Make this a three here real soon if you think I should go ahead and have a new engine put in it.
If not?
Then I'll find a lil ranger or something for what I need.
Would really like to keep it.
With Nichs vehicle now and all it won't be driven much.
I'm gonna try and go back to sleep.
Probably won't happen.
If this is a three when I wake up around 12\1 PM then I'll consider that a green light to go ahead and have the engine put in.
Goin on faith here Lucy.
Big time.
Love you.

Morning
Just got up.
Got laundry started.
Chicken baking in the oven for some more Green Chili Chicken Enchilada Casserole.
Only have hot chilis for this one lol.
The original plan was to mix them half and half, hot and mild in each batch.
Opps.
Forgot about that the first time around.
So the first ones were mild and these will be hot.
Or maybe not.
I didn't put the serrano chili's in it this time.
Also forgot the Cream of Mushroom Soup lol.
Made up for it with half an onion.
Put cilantro in this time as well.
Wal-Mart had cilantro, wow.
Went to the new "Revive Community Church."
Liked it.
I'll go back :-).
"The process is true and the outcome is certain."
"Extraordinary circumstances = God."
Lunch at moms with all the usual suspects.
No football etc so me and Alan hung out there.
Race was delayed due to rain.
It kinda put a damper on things.
I agree with Al's grand daughter Brooke.
I like the first 20 laps.
I like the last 20 laps.
All the other wrecks I can get when I wake up from my nap.
Anyway, it would have been nice to see some action but there wasn't any.
I was dozing off in my chair.
Eyes watering.
I knew if I made it through to my second wind I would never go to sleep.
Came home soon after all that.
Unpacked and crawled in bed.
Woke up and started cooking and doing laundry.
Yeah me lol.
My time of year is comin up fast :-).
You're always with me.
I always have you on my mind.
Love you.
