Individual Thought Patterns 7/27/2014

Okay this is from the tao te ching ebook pg34 #34

The great Tao flows everywhere.
All things are born from it,
yet it doesn't create them.
It pours itself into its work,
yet it makes no claim.
It nourishes infinite worlds,
yet it doesn't hold on to them.
Since it is merged with all things
and hidden in their hearts,
it can be called humble.
Since all things vanish into it
and it alone endures,
it can be called great.
It isn't aware of its greatness;
thus it is truly great.

Well from when we are born tao or maybe energy flows within us until we die. "All things are born from it, but it doesn't create them" Could be talking about how all life is created the same yet from my knowledge of Tao an individual can use this and try to walk in their own natural existence maybe. I really like the line "It pours itself into its work, yet it makes no claim" I think this means no matter what you may know or think you know, don't be boastful this in my opinion makes one humble, because it doesn't matter if your a black belt in something for example there is always someone who knows more and it doesn't just end there. The last line could be about how again there is always more knowledge to gain. Don't act like a hot shot and flaunt your so called greatness. People that don't flaunt are more level headed

Sorta reminds me of this song by KRS-One where he says that real bad boys move in silence? This quote can def go towards the rap culture. Flaunting around in those music videos with fake money hoes when you know these new cats don't have any of that shit. oh yea it was this song. Oh real hip hop how I miss you

My car is like Jesus,,,,dead

Oh yes. My lovely car just keeps getting resErected just to die once again. The sound system is the only thing good about this piece of crap. Music like Fleshgod Apocalypse and Dillinger Escape Plan sound killer in it. But can't do shit without a car. No training, nada. Theres a nearby sushi place that I go to, to keep me not bored. But maybe its starting to get to me just a lil bit. Gonna wait a little bit to do a Individual Thought Patterns post. It's just my brain hurts. So thats whats on my mind in this moment.

Bit Frustrated Today

Yes I guess Saturdays are just going to be one of those days. School totally through me for a loop. I'm not gonna be used to using my brain to study acupuncture from 8 till 5. My mind wonders too much gonna definitely have to get used to that. I get winded cause I try to pay attention, when I focus too long, my anxiety kicks up and I get freaked out about every little thing. Now my mental state gets fried and I probably don't have the energy to drive and go to this event that I had planned for tonight. It doesn't help that I injured both of my knees this week. I don't wanna just rest but thats whats gonna happen. Yes I am bitching but it's my own damn blog, I can rant if I like. But hey I guess I can look on the bright side and prob use this time to catch up on some Naruto episodes, blah bleh blah fuck yourselves (yes very theraputic writing that to the world every now and then, highly recommended)

Shun Goku Satsu

Yesterday I finally conquered Odin Hill. It took me only one week to be able to run that whole thing without stopping. On saturdays I think I'm gonna sprint down the actually large hill section of it. See how many times I can do it. The only thing that is still giving me a hard time is waking up early. I was supposed to go to brazilian jiu jitsu this morning but I slept through the alarm. I'm still getting used to the training so I must remember that and not beat myself up over it. I think I should make a video on Odin Hill so you can see how hardcore it is.

Had my first qi gong class yesterday. It was quite fun and it must be something I incorporate into my training somehow. Apparently people that do qi gong regularly have better results with acupuncture. Interesting that my training in a way affects my studies. Interesting how things can come full circle. Maybe I picked the right profession after all. Only problem is I sorta forgot the forms. I am definitely not the person who picks up things immediately. But, I know im pretty good at it so practice makes perfect.

I remember this episode of Naruto where Team Guy had to fight clones of themselves. The only reason they were able to win was to become just a little bit better than what they were yesterday. No one is getting their black belt today. You learn about yourself everyday. It never ends.
