oh my gosh, i’m catching myself in a downward spiral. gosh, me? no way. when you get phone calls from people and emails from people everyday asking “daijyobu?” or “are you ok?”, that means i’m not daijyobu, or i’m not ok. most people know me as a happy guy. i’m happy, but just emotionally down. i’m here doing something i believe in and i can’t be down now. so i was looking through my old photos and listening to old music and the happiness started building up again. i have to be happy or i can’t function right. i have to be happy or everybody around me will feel sorry for me. i don’t want that. i want to go into the next mission being totally happy, totally strong, and totally focused on what i’m here for. so from today on, you will see a happier me. i promise that..
how can a guy be happy even though he’s taking a photo of himself? haha… some people think i’m weird but imagine driving down my street 10 minutes, then pulling up to one of the biggest hotels in waikiki, then having on of your good friends valet park you car, then walk through the lobby with no tshirt and no slippers, then pulling up to the white sandy beach, then grabbing a 4 man canoe from your brother-in-law, then paddling out to sea with 3 other friends, then swimming around, then grabbing a tako, then going home to eat it. all that in 4 hours of a 24 hour day.
hey, i have a great life and i can’t forget that even thought i almost did. i had my ups and downs in my life and i’m sure everybody does too. even though things in the world are tough now, i know it will get better. the positive vibe i get from my friends is gold. i have to take that gold and spread it around so more people can feel how i’m feeling. dreams still come true and don’t forget that!
remember this:
LIVE THE LIFE YOU LOVE, LOVE THE LIFE YOU LIVE!
