The Most Important Thing

... Is Love

Song: Mad by Ne-yo

I'm currently juggling between two books: The Jordan Rules and Tuesdays With Morrie. Both are great books because I can see a little bit of myself in both protagonists. The irony is neither protagonist can be the other.

Jordan is very competitive and as a result, he's willing to sacrifice a lot to win. Morrie is like a little Buddhist. He see through life and has the heart of Mother Teresa, or should I say Mother Teresa has the heart of Morrie's. BTW, Morrie is a real human being.

I am 3/4th way with Jordan Rules and I finished Tuesdays. Reading Tuesdays made me realize how important my family and friends are to me. I mean I know they are important and I have trying very hard to spend them with them more. There are times when I am tired or lazy, I just suck up and do whatever they have plan. I am afraid I might not get the chance down the road and I will end up regretting it. I am in fine health and is mentally stable. But you never with life. Stuff happens and the next thing you know, you're sitting there with tears in your eyes reminiscing what could have been. Don't do that.

I know there were times in Vegas when my friends wanted me to go out and I was tired from the constant partying. But I sucked it up because if it was a hot girl asking me, I would've said yes. Since my friends are more important than a random hot girl, I sucked it up and went out. The results were memories and great times.

I also learned that money isn't everything. We like to believe it is everything because money can buy a lot of shit in life. Cars, respect, envy, hoes, girls, etc. The thing is, when we obtain those objects (or people) into our lives, because there is no reciprocal of love, we will feel empty and end up wondering what is the meaning of life. I don't know what is the meaning of life either and I rarely, if ever, sit and ponder such a topic. I only do it when I'm speaking to a girl and she enjoys such a conversation. I think happiness is when you can help others and know that they are well because of you.

I plan on going to Vietnam at the end of August for a charity cause. I will be there for a month and I am positive my mind will be opened. Not because of what the country can offers; I been there a couple of times. But I want to feel what it's like to have someone look at you in the eyes and feel that because of you, there are better days ahead.
