Hump. You Have A Life To Live.

Amazing. So are You. Check Out More of Miguel-Santos work!

Allo Hello! Viva La Hump Day! and all that Humpful Jazz on this rather humid yet delightful Wednesday!

Whoop! Whoop!!

My oh me oh my. I'm feeling a tad discombobulated at the moment due to a rest day which consisted of some work here and there mixed with Grifball, Twitchin' and scoring some GOOOOLLLLSSS in FIFA. Speaking of golazos, saw the 2nd Leg of Barcelona and Bayern Munich in the UEFA Semis which was pretty entertaining goal-wise. Barcelona punching their ticket as they head to Berlin for the Final. So who has my vote in today's semi-final to meet them in Olympiastadion in June? Juventus.

Sorry not sorry Ronaldo fans. 

Outside the pitch, you guys and gals need to enjoy your life. Now I'm not saying that you aren't because I don't know your life; I only know mine and there are times during it where the terrain does turn into shit but I'm still grindin' and smilin through the bullshit. Anywho...don't forget to enjoy yourself through the hustle and tussle on the daily. Life's not just about working 24/7; unless you choose to clock in and never clock out.

Be grateful, live life loud and enjoy yourself!

I mean seriously...how are you gonna enjoy yourself sitting behind a desk all day long?

Don't go there...I know where your mind is going haha.

Happy Humping and don't forget to brush your teeth. That morning breath is deadly.

You Are Not Alone. (On Tap 159)

It can get lonely out here. Yet you're never truly alone.

It's been a minute...well actually a week since the last post on here. Oh where are my manners. Allo Hello! How was your Mother's Day? Good for you and your mama I hope. If you were blessed to spend time with your mother, you better have given her a big hug. Mommas love hugs.

A very interesting topic came up ironically yesterday for me; extra bonus for it constantly popping up like my text notifications throughout the day. From the church sermon to family talks to even my girlfriend along with it somehow rolling onto the pitch during my match: The word 'Alone'.

From my perspective I literally see, touch and deal with this topic on the daily basis. From social media to my front door step to even in my down time when trying to get away. What does it mean to truly be alone? According to my pastor's sermon yesterday morning, alone means that you have completely separated yourself from society, Meaning no friends, no family, no contact, nada, zilch, nothing.

News Flash: If that's truly how you live your life then yes you're completely alone; And probably need some serious help. Ladies and gentlemen, we are not alone. Just because you don't have a significant other or spouse or a BFF that does not mean the end of the world is straight at your front door.

Yes, there are times in life that you need to be left alone but to truly be alone in this world is a terrifying reality that even you don't want to picture.

Eventually you'll stumble upon a person that could turn out to be your partner in crime, the man/woman of your dreams or your Day 1 ride or die friend that's down to helping you become a better person. Just because none of these things are here and now does not mean if you keeping being yourself and stop mentally beating yourself up over the stuff that you don't have...maybe just maybe the things you want will come.

Blessings on Blessings on Blessings.

Various amounts of them throughout the day, so much that I can afloat in the deep end above my head.

Now that demons are controlled and we have a new week, let us rejoice and conquer what's at our feet.

Go Get Em!

Ready? Begin! (On Tap 158)

Allo Hello! A new week lies ahead of you.

What exactly are you going to do in the next couple of days, hours, seconds?

During this week, you'll be dropped into moments where it's Put Up or Shut Up.

In scenarios where high risk comes high reward if you're up to the challenge.

Some circumstances will go your way, others you may just come up short.

Fret not, this is not the end.

It is just beginning.

Welcome To Your New Week of Opportunity.

Now Go Claim It.

Lyrical Spiritual 56.

Another glimpse of the sun rising. May seem like a regular occurrence to some.

Yet this blessing is for those that aren't able to witness today's sun.

You see. These small things in life have big impacts.

Most go unnoticed until it doesn't happen. Which leads to an uncertain attack.

Waking up with no pain in my core or limbs.

Walking to the closet to put on fresh jeans with a pair of Timbs.

Cleaning up the face from the night slumber, dabbing the hair with some gel.

Opening the pantry to see food on multiple shelves.

Thousands upon thousands of things to be thankful for.

None too big, none to small. Be thankful for it all.

Whether it's having a car to go from here to there,

Or getting out that stressful scenario and happy to be over here.

In this world of "I Need This" and "Right Here, Right Now!"

Don't forget about the small things that got you here to the Now.

Along your hustle and strive, don't forget to say thanks with a smile.

Who knows? That may have mutated to frown if your world got rocked upside-down.

My mind has been racing like a Dodge Viper up in Auburn Hills.

Lead food welded to the pedal, roaring in this beautiful piece of metal.

Yet I had to find a way to pump the brakes.

Coming to a stop, exit stage left. Look upon the horizon and realize what was at stake.

The stakes couldn't be higher. Well actually, yes they could.

In reality, I couldn't have been here; still could be slinging in the local hood.

A few small changes and my life has been forever changed.

From a young buck rocking a slim chain to grindin' on the high roads from lane to lane.

Seeing things clearly and thank the Almighty for the blessings bestowed upon me.

All the many gifts that tagged along for the world to see.

No matter what you're going through: Keep Going, Smile and don't forget to say Thank You.

Because you never know. Those small things can lead to a bigger you.

Cheers!

Easy Hump Day, Easy.

Allo Hello Hump Day and all of it's inhabitants! That means you.

Whoop! Whoop!!

Alright, not gonna lie but I'm feeling kind of meh this morning. Now whether that's due to the lack of good sleep the past couple of days, my body physically feeling as if it's being held by a thread or my insomniac self getting in mental fights with my thoughts inside my cerebellum. Or maybe all of the above? We may never know...

All in all I just feel mentally drained similar to an orange that has gotten every bit of pulp squeezed out of; and the damn guy just keeps squeezing in hopes for more. Alas, it is a new day that the Lord has made so rejoice and be glad in it! Even with this random dark cloud of matter trolling me from above...gotta find my Lancer to get rid of that thing.

Doesn't help that thanks to the environments that I found myself stepping in, my fuse has been lit up multiple times. Especially when things seem to be going good and yet I felt angry from within. Of course not fixing the emotional wiring, I just painted over it hoping that the paint would mask them. Nah...but thanks to meditation, prayer, hitting a couple things and committing a few fatalities...apparently that was the fix I needed.

It has been a hellacious couple of days and yet hear I stand awaiting for the daily batch of chaos to come crumbling down at my feet. Physically abused, mentally gone. Where many people would just sit hereand cry, I continue to move towards the strive.

That's what everyone must do: Strive to Survive. Things may seem as if things will never get better on the day-to-day basis seeing the same shit over and over. A blind inception of hope towards something that couldn't possibly change. Or can it? Or can you? Maybe today is that day for the challenge to be accepted by you.

Challenge yourself that throughout the bullshit that you come across this day, you shall smile, you shall conquer, you shall win today.

Don't forget to Hump in celebration of completing your mission haha.

Have a Great Day Folks. I have more mental cleaning and reconstruction to do.
