NAMASTE❕👋🏼

(HELLO IN SANSKRIT 🇮🇳)

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I want to talk about one of my favorite things… YOGA!

Yoga can be practiced in many ways. It is the practice and union of breath, movement and gaze.

I prefer hot yoga and this is yoga in a room heated to around body temperature. One of my favorite forms of yoga is the original form called “Ashtanga”.

In Ashtanga there is a specific order of poses that are performed that allow you to stretch and articulate the entire body while allowing the mind to be present and can be as challenging as you can make it.

I tend to try my best for the majority of the yoga practice so that I can challenge my mind and body and get better each time.

Yoga is something that can be done anywhere and for free.

I highly recommend yoga and believe it is something that everyone can benefit from.

Movement, breath work, community, and challenging yourself is a great recipe for a healthy experience.

You are loved.

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

I LOVE YOU 💕

Today is a day for celebration. Why? Well that is up to you.

We have birthdays, holidays, anniversaries and other yearly days that are “worth” celebrating but really every day has something to be grateful enough to cause for celebration.

Today is actually July 28 (you can see I need some more catching up to do on our blog 😬) and there is not anything that I woke up and knew was happening that was special but if I think about it I know there is something worth celebrating.

Today, right now I am celebrating being your father 🧑‍🧒‍🧒

I could also celebrate my life, my health, my children, my past and even my future.

I enjoy keeping track of my effort in the form of streaks and I am about to hit 100 days of studying language. I also have many other streaks going including practicing chess, cleaning my home and this blog among others.

My point is we do not need anyone but ourself to say what day is special and what moment is worth celebrating so we can recognize our present gratuity and even optimism for our future.

Be happy now and look forward to being happy later.

What can you celebrate today?

You are loved.

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

I LOVE YOU 💕

Today I want to share with you a few facts about an animal with a crappy name… the DUNG BEETLE.

Today I decided to grab a few things from my storage unit and I rode my bike there. On the way back I felt like a Dung Beetle with a bunch of crap rolling through the city.

Here is a video with some facts about this interesting insect.

Enjoy…. And keep on rolling 😉

You are loved.

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

GOOD MORNING❕👋🏼

I LOVE YOU 💓

Today I want to talk about Value.

It is smart when we purchase something to be mindful of what something cost and what it is worth. The worth represents the worth in the marketplace but also what it is worth to you.

One person may think that the price is too high and others may think that the same price for the same item or experience is a good deal.

Nothing really has an actual price that isn’t dictated by the merchant or marketplace. Even our currency fluctuates in value or at least its worth.

The cost for a gallon of milk in 2020 was $2.78. Now it is roughly $3.32.

A session of hot yoga is around $15 an hour and others wouldn’t practice hot yoga even if it was free and you paid them $15 an hour.

Here is my perspective.

Do not pay more for something that you can get for less unless it is necessary or convenient short term but not a long term approach.

Plan ahead, do research and practice patience.

You can usually find a good deal or in time the price may go down.

There are certain days and times during the year where sales will be present nationwide and some items decrease in price after being available for a while.

If it is new and just released and you want it immediately, know that you will probably be paying the highest price.

If it is a collectable the price may actually increase but this is rare.

Finally, sometimes we are ok with paying the highest price because for us it may be worth it. The reasons vary but if you are being mindful, this will be rare that you find yourself paying the highest price.

The more mindful you are with spending, the further your dollar will go giving you “the biggest bang for your buck”.

You are loved.

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

I LOVE YOU 💕

Today I want to share my favorite sports play of all time.

The play is known as “The Beast-Quake” and is a running touchdown by the legendary running-back named Marshawn Lynch during his time with the Seattle Seahawks.

The play features over a half dozen broken tackles and ends up with 6 points.

The crowd became so excited during the play it actually “caused” a small earthquake. It was actually detected on a seismograph (instrument used to detect and measure earthquakes) ❕

Here is the play below. Enjoy.

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

Today I wanted to talk about a famous quote from William Shakespeare “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts.”

What I gather from this quote is the following: You are the MAIN CHARACTER in YOUR STORY.

Everybody else matters but only if it is a part of your story.

The stranger on the other side of the world who will one day be historically significant that you will never meet is not as important as the stranger you walk by on the street that you may or may not say “hello” to.

In the world we have a certain amount of influence and this is where our days are won or lost.

Focus on what you can influence and incorporate only what parts are necessary for this to be true.

Want to help childhood hunger? THINK GLOBALLY and ACT LOCALLY.

Start with the community you live in or participate in most often and include those in your narrative that you interact with and consider the rest the set or background or “extras” (people included in a scene to give the context a sense of being “real”.

You are loved

What will your story tell?

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL CHESS DAY ♟️❕👋🏼

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

I write this blog using a template I created to give it a structured look and to save time with the things I always want to say.

Early versions of this template included copying the code from a previous post and pasting them into the mode used for coding.

Here is what the code looked like below. You will notice what you see and what the code was for that to appear

There are many popular computer languages. I am learning HTML and PYTHON.

There are many apps that teach various languages but you will probably be learning this in school if not already (computer coding).

By the way, CHESS has its own language too.

There are terms and names and strategies that have their own name that are from chess but there is a language used for record keeping (every move made in a game) called notation or officially Algebraic Notation.

It looks like this below

1.e3 e5 2.f3 Nc6 3.d3 Nf6 4.Bd2 d5 5.Qe2 e4 6.fxe4 dxe4 7.d4 Bd6 8.Nc3 O-O 9.O-O-O Bg4 10.Nf3 exf3 11.gxf3 Bh5 12.Bh3 Bb4 13.Rhg1 a5 14.Qg2 Bg6 15.Bf5 Nh5 16.Bxg6 fxg6 17.a3 Bxc3 18.bxc3 b5 19.Rdf1 Qd6 20.Qg4 {1-0}

The letters and numbers represent the square and piece used in each move. This can be used for later study and review after the game or allow another to “watch” your game

HELLO MY KIDDOZ❕👋🏼

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I want to talk about 💩

Well not poop exactly but needing to use the restroom.

Sometimes we need to use the restroom but there is not one available. When this is true we have to “hold it”.

But when we “hold it” yet there is a restroom available, always use the restroom instead of holding it for no reason (or if the reason is you do not feel like it).

Most of the time this is not an issue but sometimes we might be having so much fun we would rather wait until later

Just go to the restroom and get back to having fun so you do not have any negative health issues or develop health issues due to holding in something that didn’t need to be.

Simple enough.

Have fun 👍

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

I LOVE YOU 💕

HOLA MI HIJOS❕👋🏼

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I want to talk about you.

We have the ability to change our minds but who is changing it? Whether you were influenced or this change was independent (only because of you) the choice was yours to make the change.

It may be an opinion or a belief but whatever it was it may change again in the future.

Ever since you started to accept or form your own beliefs and opinions that will dictate your future behavior, actions and decisions the mind behind it all was your mind.

Over time although you will change many things, your mind or the actual “you” (not your name or reputation but how you see yourself in the present moment) will continue to evolve.

Imagine that the evolution of your mind only represents progress from your start until your finish.

There may be periods where it seems like it has reached a plateau or gone backwards but thats not true.

It only can go forward and sometimes so slowly it appears to not be progressing. But it is progressing and all the problems of the world and everybody in it slows you down more than you ever could.

Not to blame anyone or anything else for our setbacks but to not acknowledge the majority of our problems are not our fault is to accuse children of being guilty of any mistake they might make.

So if we start off with all these problems influencing us, it is amazing how we make any progress at all considering the uphill battle.

Continue to evolve ❤️

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

I LOVE YOU 💕

HIGH❕👋🏼

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today I wanted to talk about something we often see but will very rarely get to see from above… clouds.

Most humans who have ever existed never had the opportunity to see clouds from above. Unless you were on top of some mountains you only were able to see clouds from above after the airplane was invented.

I have seen clouds from above and it is a awesome sight to behold.

There are four forms that the different types of clouds fall in.

Cirro, Strato, Nimbo and Cumulo.

Cirro form is a latin word that means “curl of hair” and describes the way the cloud looks.

Cumulo form look like puffy balls of cotton

Strato form gets its name from the latin word for “layer”.

Nimbo form gets its name from the latin word for “Rain” and is a combination of the other cloud forms.

All clouds are made up of water in various forms like water droplets and ice crystals.

Depending on the weather you will be able to notice the various forms of clouds and the wind will provide movement that will change the look of the sky throughout the day.

It is fun to look at clouds and try to see a resemblance to something like various animals.

Do you ever see “animals” in the sky?

Enjoy the view

I hope you have a GREAT DAY‼️ 😎

I LOVE YOU 💕
