Life


Life goes on in different ways in addition to different forms with many not knowing how to deal with different situations.
            Being successful in the world is something that many would like to accomplish in any time period. Over time, humanity has made strides in different aspects from technology to human rights. However, it has been only a speck on the map compared to what is to come. People can make many more strides to comprehending everything. Many are ignorant to each other in the sense of not understanding different points of view as well as different lifestyles. It is due to believing in the misconceptions that have been put out that eventually lead to people assuming things instead of asking questions. In time, people will realize that understanding each other will bring more peace and harmony than ever before. Feeling worthless can happen more times than people like to admit.
            Feeling worthless is one of the many feelings people are overwhelmed with that can be devastating to the psyche if not addressed. Many feel worthless from not living up to other peoples standards or even society standards. They think that because they have not lived up to set standards that they are worthless to the world. However, knowing that it is not the end of the world when not owning up to standards is something that can be seen by looking at it from a different perspective. In turn, overcoming it can be easier. More often than not, things are easier than they seem even though they look hard to do. Many think that something is hard to do because they have never done it before when in fact it is easy to do. It is simply the mind saying that it is hard to do. Eventually with repetition, it becomes easier and possibly even routine. The feeling of worthlessness fades away. There are also successful failures that can help the person learn from mistakes as well as teaching others.
            A successful failure is not rare but another route to get to something. It can even be an opening for a new endeavor. It is called a successful failure because it was a partial of each. There was a successful as well as a failed aspect. When people think of successful failure they only see the failure part because of not seeing the successful part of it as such. However, when they see that aspect they see that they can learn from it and pass it on to friends as a teaching tool. When a new endeavor can be started something usually gets put on hold. However, if both can be done simultaneously then both can be done. Often times, people can see both sides and able to cope with it. Afterward, they move on with positive thoughts of the future.
            Moving forward in addition to thinking more positively are two things that can be done even though it will seem like an impossible thing to accomplish. Half of the battle is moving forward and thinking that it can be done. Thinking negatively will more often than not get nowhere due to the obvious fact that being focused is not there. Positive thoughts lead to positive actions whereas negative thoughts lead to negative actions. When a person thinks positively they know that they can accomplish anything even if it seems impossible at first. In time, they achieve things they thought they would never achieve. In time, they eventually become known for things that they accomplished.
            Being successful in the world is something that many can do. Without feeling worthless, people would not learn anything. Moving forward and thinking positively will often get people places when people that are negative will not achieve anything. Having a positive attitude will get people noticed. It is a matter of which is chosen that will matter in the long run.

Growing Up Wrestling: Seeing both sides

Wrestling has been part of many people’s lives for years. For some, they become wrestlers or another part of the wrestling world while others know what it is  like from a unique perspective.
      Like many fans, I did not know that much about wrestling aside from what I saw on television in addition to local shows. To further add, I was like every other fan. I was a young kid who loved wrestling for its competitive nature. It was also because of the people that were involved. Everyone worked together to make the show happen. I got to know some of the other fans as well as the wrestlers and their girlfriends or wives. In time, I came to know more than I envisioned I would ever know. It was not only from research I had done; but, by things that I was told from different sources.
      Not only have I been watching wrestling since I was seven; but, I have been going since I was ten. After a while, I had come to know most if not all the wrestlers as well as quite a few fans. It was not until I was 12 that I felt part of the wrestling  family that I had come to love. Likewise, they had become brothers and sisters. Not only that, but it was also my second home and family. Incidentally, I even got help on some of my homework assignments all due to bringing my homework to a few shows. In contrast, the political side of wrestling was far less happy in addition to being far too pointless a majority of the time.
     Politics are usually never good. It is often a little worse when it comes to the wrestling world. Steroid usage is the main culprit partially due to the bad reputation that it has brought to wrestling. In reference, it tends to come up at some point in a debate along with wrestling deaths. Furthermore, long term usage leads to unwanted side effects along with possibly getting suspended or fired. On the flipside, one of the few good things is that it can also be used in a good light for leverage. The BE A STAR program used by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) promotes anti-bullying of any form. There are quite a few way to use politics whether it is good or bad. Politics will always be around in sports. It is one of the things I have witnessed many times before.
     Wrestling is not what many think. It is like any other sports job only year round. In time, people will realize how wrong their viewpoint is.

S word

  People go through life thinking that a disability is something that the person suffers from. In reality, it is more of a learning experience.
  Many people have the misconception stuck in their head that people suffer from different things such as Epilepsy, Diabetes as well as countless other medical conditions. Suffering is when a person is in emotional or physical pain and cannot do anything. People with some chronic conditions may not always be in physical or emotional pain. In contrast, many conditions require constant watch even though the person is not in constant pain. In retrospect, there are conditions such as Depression where the person may be in constant emotional pain. However, things may not always be what they seem until they are looked into further.
   Life experiences happen in life that everyone can learn from. People are different and life is meant to be that way. Otherwise, life would be boring because everyone would be the same. To further add, experience comes from things that happen to us that can impact a person to change their way of thinking. Life happens and everything can be turned into a learning experience. Life is about living and learning. People will no  learn if they do not experience different things that go on in life. People have emotional as well as physical pain in life. That is one thing that people can learn from. Teaching others can be an experience in itself. Teaching others the difference can be a great experience. It can also be a life experience because both sides benefit from each other. The person sharing often feels satisfaction in telling others about their life. Learning, teaching and being optimistic can be a very powerful combination.
   Suffering is a word used by people that do not realize the full meaning of the word. They do not realize that there is more to it than just putting it towards something that renders it useless. Many also do not realize that not all suffer. Many find peace in a condition that they have because it is what makes them unique. It is their own unique stamp that they can use to their advantage. In turn, they are able to teach people something new that they may not otherwise learn unless someone tells them about it. Often times, many do not stop long enough to learn something new. The hectic lifestyle of today leaves little time to learn anything new. However, by learning something new people gain a new sense of thinking in bits in pieces. In time, people connect the dots and a bigger picture is gathered.
   A word is a word that can be used in many ways and in different forms. It is a matter of the real meaning shining through. When it is out in the light people see its true color. There are many challenges in life that can be overcome. It is challenges that can be used as life experience.

GEM

There are many songs that have special meanings behind it for the singer as well as for those who listen to the song. “Don't be a hard rock when you really are a gem” in the song “Doo Woop (That thing)” by Lauryn Hill is one of many quotes that have a special meaning behind it.
In today's world, many do not have respect for themselves or others. To further add, many do not have morals. People have changed from being respectful and polite to disregarding any inkling of the two. Those that do have morals and respect are treated like they have a bad attitude. It is due to them having and using common sense. Instead, they are treated like outsiders just for having morals as well as being blunt. Many cause drama due to being negative. It is also partly due to the fact that they want attention. If they do not get attention they start drama. Much if not all of it can be prevented just by respecting what others say and do. Many find it hard to be positive in such a negative world that is called the modern day.
Self respect is something that not many people have. It is due to their lack of self esteem as well as society today being exceedingly ignorant. In turn, people think that they are a hard rock. To further add, many not only conform to society but, they mold into what others want them to be instead of into what they want to be. As a result, people are ignorant and close minded. They also are unwilling to learn new things. Yet, many break that mold and become their own person. They realize that they can be their own person and stand up to those that push them around.
A gem has no particular shape. It is not easy to conform it to one particular form. In essence, it will always be unique in some way. It is in a unique. It is the same thing with people. Nobody is perfect; therefore, everyone is unique in their own way. Conforming to society only suppressing feelings and emotions. Instead, be the person that is on the inside instead of conforming to society's needs and wants. It also means standing up for what is right instead of going with the crowd. People who go against the crowd get noticed because they are seen as “different” when in reality they are being themselves. By following that path, people can be themselves and follow the path that they are intended to follow.
Knowing your inner self and standing firm is something that not many people can do. . Many end up conforming to the mold of the world forced to do so. Being comfortable in addition to having better self esteem are a few of the steps that can be taken in the right direction. Doing so can help in being a better person. To further add, being positive can help more than imaginable. It can be hard at times; but, it can be done nonetheless. Being the person inside and out can make a world of a difference. As a result, more people will take notice and realize that they can also be themselves.
Instead of being a hard rock, why not be a gem and be the person that is on the inside. Pretending to be someone that does not match the inside will only end up doing harm in the long run. It can lead to things that can be prevented. Instead, be a gem and shine.

Girl on a mission

I have always been a writer that has quite more knowledge than most to share with the world. Unfortunately, most of the world is too ignorant and close minded to listen. The ones that do is what makes a difference. By getting it to just a few people, they may spread it to others who then tell others. It then leads to a domino effect and people learn from it. It is this effect that can change people for the better just by learning something new. In turn, they are a little more open minded. Eventually, they are willing to learn more because of the little things that they start learning.
Getting the truth out is one of the many missions that I have been on. Millions of people in the world today do not know the truth about anything. It is due to the fact that there are many misconceptions that they believe. In turn, people are close minded and unwilling to learn about anything because they think they are right. When a person believes in one or several misconceptions, they think that it is correct when in fact misconceptions are based off of assumptions that are always wrong. When people learn that misconceptions are wrong them are psychic and will know and understand them.
Disproving the misconceptions have is easy when you have the correct facts. For instance, Hearing Impaired and Deaf people are one in the same. The difference is that the term Hearing Impaired is insulting. There is nothing impaired about Deaf people. They were born without their hearing or lost it at a young age due to a reaction to a specific medication that caused them to lose their hearing or from meningitis. When we are born, we have little hairs in our hears that help sound flow in and out. With Deaf people, they are born without those hairs in their ears. In turn, Deaf people are treated differently because they do not hear. The most common misconception is that they are dumb and uneducated. In fact, all Deaf people are just that. PEOPLE. They are also highly educated and have better driving records than Hearing people. It is the misconceptions about Deaf people in addition to people assuming that the misconceptions are correct. There are many other misconceptions that can easily be disproved just by doing some simple research. If people did some research they would find that there is more to life than misconceptions.
In the past several years, I have become an encyclopedia of knowledge on different subjects such as Deafness, Epilepsy, wrestling, Religions in addition to many more. The things that I have researched and learned about are things that are very common in the world; yet, many do not truly know about them because they are close minded and believe in the misconceptions. It was irritating at first when people came to me for advice on the various subjects. But in time, I came to love it because they were learning something new and passed it on to others. I would rather teach others and have them learn something from me knowing that that they learned it from a good source rather than not learn anything at all.
Not only have I learned different things on different subjects; but, I have wisdom that can be passed on to others. Some of it has been through research while the rest is through direct experience. Everyone experiences different things at different points in life. My life has been unique in more ways than one. Having that wisdom to share with others is often times the best thing to teach. I have knowledge that some my age do not even have yet or can even understand. Many in my age group have not experienced what I have and cannot begin to learn about unless they experience it first hand. Describing and experiencing things are two completely different things. I know that in time things will happen and more people will understand each other.

Warm and Cold

Humankind will always be an interesting species for many reasons. However, there are people that are naturally warm blooded people; but, they are cold hearted. On the flipside,  there are people who have naturally cold bodies (where they feel cold much of the time); yet, they have the warmest hearts.
    The meaning behind these two unique terms can be interpreted in many ways. However, the true means are within the words themselves. There are thousands of people that are kind hearted people. They dedicate their life to helping others and changing the community that they live in. To further add, they may travel around the country they live in as well as around the world to help others. Hence, they are warm hearted people. On the flipside, there are thousands more that worry about themselves and nobody else. They would rather make money as well as be a greedy individual. In turn, they are cold hearted people.  Instead of giving people a second chance, they fire someone because they did an assignment wrong. People grow up with different lifestyles in addition to being raised differently than others. It plays one of many factors to how they make decisions and choices that end up affecting their future.
   Unfortuntately reality gets in the way of life. Many people are cold hearted, ignorant as well as close minded. It is hard for them to realize that people are not perfect and have flaws. The reality of the current times is that the world is currently in a bad spot in addition to being unbalanced. In essence, it is a worldwide Great Depression in that there are people suffering in different countries as a result of things that have happened in the past ten years. Things are slowly starting to get better but not as quick as it could be. By doing more that will save money such as recycling and other money saving things will help others and the rest of the world. However, with so many people being close minded not many are willing to do so.
   Making a difference in the world comes naturally to some and not so much with others. It is human nature to want to help; however, there are people who are more compassionate towards people and overall things whereas others care a little bit more about themselves while they try to care about others as well. In the current society, people are a little more greedy and tend to think of themselves and their family than anyone else. They do not truly care about people that are homeless and going hungry. Instead, they care for their family and want to see their family members grow instead of helping others get on their feet. People who are more compassionate put others before themselves. To them, they would rather see someone else succeed and worry about themselves later on.
   Changing the world can start with a simple act or saying something simple. The movie Pay It Forward is a movie that everyone can learn from. It is a boy named Trevor who is assigned a project in his Social Studies class. What ends up happening is people all across the United States pay it forward in their own way. At the end of the movie, Trevor dies of a stab wound while trying to break up a fight. People from all over the city come to pay their respects to him for what he accomplished. This movie alone can inspire anyone to do the same thing. Do a simple act such as helping someone with their groceries or opening the door. Others will see even though you do notice them watching. Simple acts go far without anyone truly knowing it.
   By being more  open minded, people can learn new things and the world would start becoming a better place. People would treat others with respect that is deserved and the environment better. Te world can be a better place by people simply being more open minded and less greedy. Furthermore, people doing things to benefit themselves, others and the earth is something that people are starting to notice and take action. It is this simple act that can set off a motion of other actions that will eventually lead to a better planet and life.

All Hallows Eve

I know it is a day late but I'd rather it be on the day that the harvest would be than not at all.


Halloween has always been my favorite day of the year. It is the day that the world between the living and the dead is thinned. However, there are always ghosts around. There are many haunted places all across the world that have spirits in need of help crossing over. Ghost Hunters such as TAPS and their counterparts that go beyond the US to help the dead in other countries are currently helping the dead cross over or at least confirm or disprove a haunted house.
All Hallows Eve has been around for centuries. It is most known as Samhain because of a fall festival being around the time of harvest. It is when people gathered their crops for the winter and celebrated. It is also when ghosts had the ability to go between this world and the next easier. In essence, it is also a better known version of the Mexican day of Dia de Muerte or Day of the Dead that also happens at the same time every year.
My interest in this day came when I was much younger. I had always been interested in Vampires, werewolves, chupacabras, Ghosts and other supernatural beings. I was and still am among those that believe that there is something out there aside from ourselves. There are other things beside ourselves that many do not understand. If people something as simple as research they would learn that the Mexican and American tradition are not so far apart as many think. Both are essentially the same with very few differences. Unfortunately, many lack the ability to research and comprehend the fact that many traditions are the same with a few differences.
Halloween is a time when kids roam around in costumes and go trick or treating. It is also when paranormal researchers go to haunted places to get more evidence to prove that ghosts exist and that there is another world aside from the world that we can physically see.
