WAIPA IN REAL LIFE: I STARTED MY 2015 PRETTY STRONG!!!

MY INTRO

ALOHA AND WELCOME TO MY PERSONAL BLOG!!! I THOUGHT WHY NOT SHARE MY PERSONAL GAINS & STRUGGLES THAT LIFE PUTS OUT TO EACH AND ONE OF US. I FEEL THAT THROUGH THE GIFT OF "GIVING & SHARING", THERE IS NO WAY BETTER THAN START THIS BLOG WHICH IS ALL ABOUT ME, MY OHANA (FAMILY), HOALOHA (FRIENDS), AND EVEN ENEMIES WHICH ARE THE VERY ONES I NEED TO LOVE AND ACCEPT.

I'LL SAY THIS STRAIGHT UP, I DON'T HOLD BACK MY FEELINGS FOR ANYONE AND IT'LL COME OUT OF MY MOUTH ON HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOU AND OTHERS. I DON'T GO BEHIND ANYONE'S BACK AND START RUMOURS WITH HOPES THAT IT WILL CIRCLE AROUND AND FINALLY HIT ITS TARGET. WHY TAKE THE LONG ROUTE WHEN I CAN GO STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. PERSONALLY, I THINK THAT IS THE "REAL" WAY OF LIVING LIFE, "BE REAL" AT ALL TIMES EVEN WHEN THE WORLD IS WATCHING.

ON THE OTHER NOTE, "I AM" THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE FROM THE WAY "I SEE IT". I AM NOT SPEAKING FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S FEEDBACK OR "CONCEITEDNESS". "THIS IS" WHAT I CHOOSE TO SEE MYSELF EVERYDAY WHEN I WAKE UP FROM MY BED AND THANK "AKUA" (GOD) FOR GIVING ME ONE MORE DAY TO LIVE, REGARDLESS OF REGRETS FROM THE "YESTERDAYS" TO THE FEARS OF "TOMMOROWS".

IN MY EYES, LIVING A "BEAUTIFUL LIFE" CAN ONLY BE ATTAINED BY "CHOICE" AND IT REQUIRES "INTEGRITY", "HONESTY", "UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE", "FORGIVENESS" AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, "LOVE".

AS MY BEAUTIFUL ANCESTORS HAVED ALWAYS BELIEVED:

'Ike aku, 'ike mai, kokua aku kokua mai; pela iho la ka nohana 'ohana.

WHICH MEANS, RECOGNIZE OTHERS, BE RECOGNIZED, HELP OTHERS, BE HELPED; SUCH IS A FAMILY RELATIONSHIP.

SO ONCE AGAIN, "WELCOME TO MY BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!"

AWWWRITE!!!

I STARTED MY 2015 PRETTY STRONG!!!

ALOHA & HAU'OLI MAKAHIKI HOU!!!

IT FEELS SO GOOD TO BE BACK IN TRAINING FULL TIME!!!

THE HOLIDAYS IS A "LOVE & HATE" THING FOR ME... LOL!!! I'VE YET TO MASTER THE "TEMPTATIONS" OF YUMMY FOODS & DRINKS. BUT THAT IS IN THE PAST... 2014 HAS LEFT AND NOW IT IS BACK TO ME DOING WHAT I DO BEST!!!

AS MOST OF YOU ALL KNOW... I HAVE ROUGHLY 73 DAYS LEFT BEFORE MY FIRST "SPARTAN RACE" ON O'AHU, HAWAI'I. KAHEALANI IS ALSO PARTICIPATING WITH ME AND SEVERAL OTHER FRIENDS AS WELL. NEVER HAVE I EVER BEEN SO EXCITED AND YET SCARED AT THE SAME TIME... LOL!!!

I CHOSE TO DO THIS RACE TO FACE MY FEARS. FEAR OF BODY HARM & PAIN FROM EXTREME SPORTS, THE FEELING OF CHEST PAINS FROM BEING OUT OF BREATH, THE FEAR OF LACTIC ACID BUILDING UP ON ALL MY MUSCLES, THE FEAR OF INJURIES, THE FEAR OF GOING INTO THE UNKNOWN, THE FEAR OF NOT FINISHING THE RACE, AND SO ON!!!

AND HERE I AM... PUSHING MYSELF THROUGH VIGOROUS TRAININGS, EATING CLEAN, AVOIDING & FIGHTING NEGATIVE DRAMAS FROM PEOPLE SUCH AS BETRAYALS, LIARS, JEALOUSY, VINDICTIVE, AND I CAN ON AND ON AND ON!!!

I AM ALSO UP AGAINST LONELINESS (BEING AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER, KAHEALANI WHO LIVES IN HAWAI'I), THERE ARE TIMES I AM DEPRESSED BECAUSE I AM HURT BE SOME PEOPLE WHOM I'VE TRUSTED ONLY TO FIND OUT THEY WERE NOT WHO I THOUGHT THEY WERE, AND MY LOYALTY IS BROKEN BECAUSE OF THAT AND THAT WILL TAKE TIME TO HEAL.

SO WHY AM I SAYING ALL OF THIS???

I SEE THESE INCIDENTS/SCENARIOS AS "PERSONAL CHALLENGES"... AND WITHOUT THEM... I WON'T BE ABLE TO GROW AND LEARN TO BE A BETTER & STRONGER PERSON THAN I WAS BEFORE!!!

I "ACCEPT ALL CHALLENGES" WITH HUNGER AND THIRST... NO ONE WILL EVER TAKE AWAY MY "PRIDE & JOY" OF WHO I AM AND ESPECIALLY TO THOSE I LOVE.

I WILL FIGHT ALL NEGATIVE THAT COMES BEFORE ME... I WILL PROTECT MYSELF AND LOVED ONES ALWAYS AND FOREVER!!!

THIS IS "MY LIFESTYLE!!!"

THE SPARTAN RACES IS A METAPHOR OF MY "CHALLENGES" IN LIFE.

I WILL "FINISH" THIS RACE AND I WILL TAKE ON THE NEXT RACE AFTER THAT... AND I WILL "FINISH" THAT RACE TOO... AND I WILL CONTINUE TO TAKE ON "RACE" AFTER "RACE" AFTER "RACE"... AND I WILL CONQUER ALL OF THEM AND FINISH THEM!!!

BRING IT ON!!!
