I'm having an awesome friday night (blog)

Just sitting here listening to it rain. It's Friday night. What's better than a thunderstorm on a Friday night?

The stars truly have to align to make that happen. I am so grateful. I couldn't ask for a better evening. It's just so nice with the window open, watching TV. listening to the rainfall.

It is rather cold outside but that's OK. I don't mind. I'm just glad to be home...I'm just really grateful for everything right now.

Thanksgiving was yesterday, but I'm still feeling the gratitude vibes.

There is always so much to be grateful for.

Just look around you! Life is full of blessings, left and right. You just have to recognize what is already there.

I am building my new YouTube channel. It is a lot of work. Blogging is a lot less stressful, to be honest.

I will always be a blogger first and foremost. 

But I do love making videos too. 

Blogging is actually like therapy for me. It literally is.

I get so many things off my chest. Anyway, I'm off to watch some more TV. Thank you for reading..have an awesome weekend!

Thanksgiving..a little different this year

Well, it's midnight, which means it's no longer Thanksgiving. But now it's Friday..woohoo!! The funny thing is, Thanksgiving this year was a little different..because literally, nobody invited me over to their house.

That's the first time in a while that nobody has. 

It felt strange. 

As grateful as I am for all my blessings...I have to admit, that really hurt a lot. 

The fact that NOBODY wanted to spend the holiday with me. Wow. Honestly..it is what it is. It just showed me that I'm not as important to some people as I thought I was. 

At the end of the day, we have ourselves, and maybe a couple other people if we're lucky. But there will be days when you have nobody but yourself. 

You have to learn how to be there for YOURSELF. 

It's strange when you barely have any family left..and hardly any friends left as well. 

I am truly a loner. I've been that way most of my life...but I used to have more people in my life. I just have to accept the loneliness as a gift. And appreciate the handful of people who are still in my life.

All that aside...I am really grateful for everything the Lord has blessed me with. There's a quote by the Buddha.."When you realize how perfect everything is..you'll tilt your head back and laugh at the sky."


I went for a nice walk outside (blog post)

I got a nice walk to the store…it was great. I live right close to the store (Walmart) so it's very easy to walk to.

But it's still enough walking to where it's a great amount of exercise when you walk there and back.

It's probably like a half mile there and back or something. I do it now and then…it also saves gas and saves the environment!

I had a reason


Today I only went because I wanted a couple bottles of soda. I love soda. I drink diet, so it's not as bad for you.

Going for a nice walk is always great

They actually did a study where diet soda isn't really bad for you, it just has a bad reputation, but that's not really backed by science from what I understand.

On another note, yesterday I found this pair of pants that had been missing…it's one of my favorite pairs of pants!

Hate that I do this


I have a bad habit of losing clothes. They usually get buried underneath a pile of clothes. But when I find them, it's great!

I started a new YouTube channel. I'm not sure if I'm going all the way with it...I'm going to wait and see what happens with the new rules.

Eggs, toast and coffee (is one of my favorite breakfasts)

That's one of my favorite breakfasts ever. It's so simple and easy to make. Just an egg, 2 pieces of toast, and some coffee.

It's pretty light, but it fills you up enough to get you going. And of course, eggs are super healthy. If I'm in a hurry to eat, I'll just cook the egg in the microwave.

I usually drink instant coffee too


I'm a convenience type of guy. I like things to be as easy as possible.

But something about coffee goes excellent with eggs and toast.

That breakfast looks amazing

Even just coffee and toast is a great snack, I love it.

It seems like on the days when I eat a good breakfast, I have the best days and get more done. A lot of days, though, I will fast until the afternoon and just skip breakfast.

Go without breakfast


It's a great, easy way to fast if you're into that.

Fasting has a ton of health benefits. Although it is hard to do, fasting can take you really far with losing weight and with your health in general. 

But typically, I eat throughout the day


Anyway, it's Saturday here…not sure what I'm doing today, but we'll see!

Here's another post I did about going for a walk.

Having a good friday night (blog post)

It's Friday night...I'm super excited. I'm not sure what I'm doing yet this weekend but I'm just glad it's the weekend.

You know that feeling you get when the weekend comes around. I had a pretty good day. Got a few things done.

A GREAT QUOTE

I saw a quote that was really good..it said "If you focus on what you have you'll always have more" or something like that.

That's one of the best quotes I've heard about the law of attraction. This stuff really works you guys. Just count your blessings.

ABUNDANCE

You will always end up having more..just be thankful. Gratitude is what life is all about.

Here's another quote I posted, by the way, hope you like it.

It's weird not making youtube videos (blog)

It's kind of weird not being a YouTube video maker anymore. But at the same time, I feel a lot of relief. Why do I feel relief, you might ask?

Because it was super stressful. It was one of the most stressful things I've ever done. I do miss making videos but I am much better off health-wise without the added stress and pressure.

I can enjoy YouTube now from a viewer standpoint...like I always used to do. 

Now I'm remembering the fun of it..instead of viewing it as work.

It's much more fun just watching videos and having fun with it!

UPDATE 2022: I am a YouTuber again since making this post. I think I made this post right after deleting my YouTube channel.

But shortly after writing this post, I started a new channel and started over. I missed making videos...I truly love it, just like blogging.

I will keep making videos and blogging. Both of these things I greatly love and will keep doing them, they bring so much enjoyment into my life. I'm very blessed and grateful to have both of them. Thanks for reading guys.

Talking about Karma (and how important it is)

I love karma..everything about it. I love good karma. Karma is something that everyone should learn about and put into practice.

You should always be a good person because then you'll have good karma. Karma is so important if you want to have a good life.

The truth is, that everything that happens to you is a result of your karma.

So if you want good things to happen to you, then you need to have as much good karma as possible.

How do you get good karma?

There are a bunch of ways, fasting, prayer, meditation, being nice to people, giving to charity, and sharing with people. In general, doing good for others will give you good karma.

When you have enough good karma you can really live the life of your dreams.

Talking about my love for Bruce Lee (blog)

Bruce Lee was so amazing. I just watched a scene from Enter the Dragon, where he is fighting the guy and the guy ends up breaking glass bottles to try to attack Bruce. Bruce finished him off in a timely fashion.

Enter the Dragon is by far my favorite Bruce Lee movie. My dad and I used to watch it all the time. We loved it. It's such an incredible film from start to finish.

He was multi-talented


Bruce was not only an astounding fighter (the best) but also a great actor. He is so exciting to watch. He's an immortal, he lives on in spirit.

Bruce Lee was awesome!

He's one of my biggest inspirations in this life. His teachings have changed me so much for most of my life.

My Dad showed me Bruce Lee


I have my dad to thank for that. I miss watching those films with him. It was one of the best memories of my father.

If I could do that all over again, I would. Just be and him, watching Bruce Lee films, eating pizza, and laughing together. I sure do miss my dad.

Talking about my love for memes (blog post)

Memes are so great. I don't know what I'd do without them. They really cheer me up when I'm feeling down.

There are so many, too. It's like they are endless. There are constantly new memes being created. I never get tired of looking at them.

I do have to take breaks, but I will always go back to them. I love posting them on my meme page as well. It's so much fun.

I get a kick out of seeing people's reactions.

Here are some more memes for you to browse through.

Memes are really a staple of the internet at this point. The internet we know today was kind of built on them if you think about it. 

I do enjoy looking at them and posting them. They make great content.

I've been fasting and eating less (blog post)

I am eating less tonight. I'm trying to do fasting at least once a day. Eating less is a lot healthier for you. It helps you burn fat, gives you more energy, and just keeps you healthier overall. 

It makes you live longer too.

I had a problem with snacking too much every time I got hungry, but I'm getting that under control now. It's actually good for your body to be hungry sometimes.

It releases good stuff in your body that improves your health overall. I love the feeling of fasting. I'm also doing it for karma and spiritual reasons. Good karma is very important to me..and fasting is one way of clearing your karma.

I usually do liquid fasting. 

I don't really do fasting where I don't drink anything. Even if you drink fluids, it's OK..because you're abstaining from food. Which is very important. I recommend fasting to everyone.

It will increase your quality of life and give you so much more energy. 

Big changes coming to youtube

Well guys… I never thought I'd say this, but this might be the end of my YouTube channels. There are new changes coming…and it's too complicated to fully understand, so I might delete my channels just to be safe.

I still have blogging


I have always been a blogger first and foremost. I'm a blogger who makes videos. So I will now be focusing on my blog first and foremost.

Expect a lot more content, guys! This is going to be fun. I really missed blogging every day. There is going to be a lot to talk about and share.

What about my YouTube posts?


As for all my posts on the blog that have YouTube videos…I'm not sure what will happen, I may have to delete them, we'll see.

But anyway…it's really cold here in Missouri. It's definitely feeling like the Christmas season. Are you in the holiday spirit?

You'll never guess what Keanu Reeves did..

Keanu Reeves is such a good person. He's always giving to charity and helping people out. I feel like he doesn't get enough credit or that.

Out of all the actors, I've never heard of anyone doing as much good as him. Think about how selfless he must be.

A great example


We should all try to be like that. 
I've heard about him just giving large amounts of money to random strangers.

Random acts of kindness


He'll just randomly donate a big lump sum of money to someone on the street, or something like that. 
He just does all kinds of good deeds for people. 

He might be the kindest person in Hollywood. I bet he has some amazing karma, for sure. Think about, when you help that many people, the amount of good karma that comes your way is incredible.

Keanu is a legend


We should all try to be like Keanu. If everyone did one act of kindness per day, the world would be a lot better place. I think we can all agree on that. Kindness is the key to life. We can spread kindness around, it is free to give and can change someone's life.

Why you should ignore internet trolls

You have to ignore the trolls you guys, it's the best way. There are a lot of trolls on the Internet. But you don't have to let them bring you down. Just simply ignore them.

It works very well. Trolls have gotten a lot worse than they used to be. You just have to understand that what they think about you or your content doesn't even matter.

It's part of the game


Being a content creator on the internet, you are going to deal with internet trolls. It's just a fact of life. But the good news is, their opinion doesn't matter.

They hate you because they want to be you. They are jealous, plain, and simple. Not only that, but they just want what you have. 

They wish they could be you


Secretly, they wish they could make content, but some of them won't actually do it. So they hate you because you actually are chasing your dreams.

Just don't even worry about it. Why would you waste time on people who don't even matter? Don't do that, whatever you do. 

Just keep doing what you do and keep going no matter what.
