… "'FEAR' DIS-appears, & ABUNDANCE APPEARS."
(--Tony Robbins, MOTIVATIONAL-speaker)
…
I GREATLY-appreciate MY-OWN steadfast DETERMINATION, remarkable INTELLIGENCE, commendable-ATHLETICISM, creative-INGENUITY & "HALF-assed" HUMBLENESS throughout my RECOVERY/REHABILITATION.
(… I SEMI-sarcastically/-MOCKingly BOW.)
… After TEACHING yet another "martial arts"-class, one of the/my 'Karateka' ('Karate-students') remarked to me:
"I never got to THANK you."
My reply: "And, you never will."
(… Okay, okay, … OKAY! So, we were JUST quoting 'Batman Begins'.
But, it's the PRINCIPLE!)
I REALLY ENJOY teaching Karate & 'Jiujitsu'!
My 23+ years studying/learning MARTIAL ARTS AND my eight years practicing COMPETITIVE-WRESTLING have provided me with a "WEALTH"/PLETHORA/PLENTITUDE of "SELF DEFENSE"-information!
I GREATLY-APPRECIATE the/my "MARTIAL ARTS"-Professor for his understanding of my KNOWLEDGE, ENTHUSIASM & CREATIVITY, when it comes to TEACHING!
…
THANK GOODNESS I "paid ATTENTION" in my 12th grade "PHYSICS"-class!
(… THAT logic & "Newtonian-reasoning" are INSTRUMENTAL in determining my "EVERYDAY-movements".)
My Caregiver QUESTIONS my using my MOMENTUM & LEVERAGE to help me STAND:
"But, are you SURE?!"
My reply: "Of COURSE, I'm SURE! With 'PHYSICS' I'm ALWAYS SURE."
(--Rubin, 'Road Trip')
"You GET--in Life--what you have the COURAGE to ASK-for."
(--Oprah Winfrey)
…
"What came FIRST--the MUSIC … or the MISERY?"
(--'High Fidelity')
(… Since I doN'T listen/LIKE much MUSIC, am I JUST MISERABLE?!
…
MY CONCLUSION/ANSWER: "LIFE is what/how you MAKE it." CONTINUE, A.J., to be OPTIMISTIC … that you'll IMPROVE your "SITUATION".
I'm KINDA-like … the GREAT Dr. Stephen Hawking
He preferred to be regarded as "a scientist first, popular
science writer second, and, in all the ways that matter, a
normal human being with the same desires, drives, dreams,
and ambitions as the next person."
(… I PREFER to be "SEEN-as" a MATHEMATICAL-genius
FIRST, phenomenal "martial arts"-instructor SECOND, and,
in all the ways that MATTER, a FORMER-"T.B.I."-victim
who's SUCCESSFULLY-rehabilitated into a HAPPY film-critic
with SIMILAR desires, drives, dreams & ambitions as the
next-GUY.)
… Hawking had ambivalent feelings about his role as an
advisability-rights champion: while wanting to help others, he
sought to detach himself from his illness and its challenges
(Stephen Hawking)
(… SIMILARLY, I am "VERY MUCH" an OPEN, VEHEMENT
advocate for BETTER/MORE rights & recognition for those
with DIS-abilities. HOWEVER, I LIKE-to THINK/PREDICT
that my "Traumatic InjurIES" are merely TEMPORARY. But,
I'll STILL-be a MAJOR-supporter of "handicapped-
ABILITIES"!)
…
To those I have WRONGED, I ask for FORGIVENESS.
To those I have HELPED, I wish I could have done MORE.
… To those I could NOT help, ( : ( ) I ask for
UNDERSTANDING.
To those who have helped-ME, I am GRATEFUL for ALL you
did/DO.
