Hardship leads to greatness

Do not blame your broken family background,
I lost my father at the age of 9 and was chased out of my hometown.

Do not tell me you are poor,
I lived off field mice and battling to the life and death was my occupation and lifestyle.

Do not tell me you inherited a small country,
I began with no friends except my little shadow,
but amassed the largest and fiercest army this world has ever known.

Do not tell me you have no ability or education,
I do not even know how to write my own name
but heeded the words of others to make wise decisions.

Do not tell me the situation is too tough, that the only way out is to give up,
I had a sword to my neck but escaped,
and had my cheek ruptured by a arrow and lived.

Your enemy is not around you, but within.

If seemingly unconquerable walls stood in my way, I knocked them all down.

And the moment I overcame, I became Genghis Khan

-Genghis Khan annuls-

 

Genghis Khan was arguablly the greatest military leader the world has ever known.  He also had the largest empire history has ever known.  From the lows of lows through adversity and hardship, he rised from the ashes to become someone that no one believed possible.

This generation really lacks the drive and passion to accomplish anything eh? 

It was a wakeup call for me as well.

 

and on a happier note, a letter my student wrote me as I left for Korea/Israel

 

I can't honestly say that I'm not scared of Joe

He is able to bring people lower than low

When you see his straight face as we groan through PT

His heartfelt affection is so hard to see

We only recently started to call him our pastor

But he always received the respect of a master

None of this matters, nevertheless

In this far away country and dangerous mess

Israel is where Pastor Joe has been sent

The population of Christians is but .4 percent

There's no doubt that God will change his whole life

Perhaps even introduce him to a wife

It's almost too much for me to have to say

That all we can do is simply to pray

"Sharp as a razorblade, Pinpoint as the knife's edge, and Blunt as old, wise iconic sword."

To compare a sword with knowing the hearts of man seems ironic, as the sword is meant to stop such hearts from beating.  But for me, it is only fitting because a critique can cut through a person at times.  In fact, I believe that we all need to be shown what our weaknesses are.  Those who surround themselves with Yes people will never grow, but he who seeks the counsel of the honest will grow.  But on the flipside we have to understand that we need to  understand that human beings are weak and fickle.  To not be disappointed by the actions of man, but have faith in the integrity of their core. 

"To seek to help another, while not judging them, and believing in them, is one of the hardest feats to accomplish"

I found this out from countless experiences of trying.  Thus, I believe in this statement to my essence of who I am.

This is my CHUR AK. (standards on which I live)

Not to Judge

To Love

To Understand

To Sacrifice

Because, comparatively, Christ did so much for us that we cannot even start to comprehend.  As I read Ephesians 1:3-14 I really am astounded at how God chose ME, He reconciled MY sin.  I could only hope to emulate the perfect one on earth that is called Jesus Christ.

"Strength to Those who Perservere

Honor to those who Respect

Love to those who Sacrifice

Peace to those who Transcend

Wisdom to those who are Diligent

and the Lord is to those who actively breathe the Lord."

I am infatuated now with Alica Keyes.  Actually was long ago, but now am so again.

 

You know how everyone has a certain taste?  For example, some people like big eyes, others, big lips.  Some others, cute babyish face. 

One of my friends, Chris Kim has a unique taste.  He likes a certain type of girl.  Hmmmm, I dunno how to describe.  And all people have different types.

I think my taste is more of the angular face type.  More chiseled and sharp.  Maybe thats why I was infatuated with Yi Horyi for the longest time.   They both have that type of look.   These type of faces, ususally have normal sized eyes if even that, and high cheekbones.  A sophisticated structure.  

 

Finally, I know how to answer when people ask me "what is your type?"  Took me 24 years to truely figure out what floated my boat. lol
