poem of happiness : deciding to join again

returning to life . . .

finding the path again while

suffering more while reading more to be more

listening to β€œdespacito” or β€œslowly ” . . . . BTS and

luis fonsi with daddy yankee when reading

β€œstep by step, soft, softly

we’re getting closer, little by little”

being happy to return and be reborn .. .

discovering a new way to live. . . .

returning to the emergency room weekly.

teaching wonderful students again at the university . . .

finding positivity in the negativity of pain. . .

living through another cancer

returning to kendo, japanese sword training, . .

failing to pass a 3rd degree black belt . . .

learning to learn again. . .

smiling because it is good seeing old friends in Texas,

thinking that I need to train hard . . .

relearning what I once know . . .

returning to my university . . .

planning my 2nd degree goju ryu black belt test, . . ..

trying to remember what I once knew.

thanking you for reading this. . . more coming.

planning to train more. . . .

focusing more . . .

becoming mindful more . . .

hoping to create an international

budo society academy in Kenya . . .

being grateful for visiting me.

blessings and much hope below . . .

being a picture of me training, even though I

having terminal cancer. . . .

hoping to be cancer free. . .

fighting cancer. . author

training in houston

being outside of md anderson cancer center in the park

bruce lee saying. . .

β€œadapt what is useful,

reject what is useless, and . . .

add what is specifically your own”

    I’m glad you are cancer free. There are also a lot of good quotes here, β€œlearning to learn again”, I’m glad you are able to express yourself through your writing. Blessings.
