but god is great

paved the way for my family to get out of the hood. been out, so it’s gonna be time soon to give back. from nothing to something, god was always there. it’s been so clear, i’ve just been blinded by the BS while he still pulled us out. the dream is still alive

 that there is no worse hell than eternal regret so you must do what you can now 

a part of someone else’s dreams and be inspired by it. 

this is also the essence of following ‘god’s plan’ if you’re a believer. it’s the overarching dream of all existence. the way that things are meant to be

has the potential for good and bad. That is, you have your good side and your not so good side. In order to make the good side grow, you have to make promises/commitment to it. that is the essence of prayer

is hard. damn hard. pain is part of what makes us human and that is why you should always respect your fellow travellers

but i was raised by my grandmother till the age of 8. I cannot wait to graduate as an engineer at a globally elite engineering institution and honor her in korea when i visit at the end of the year.

but sometimes I feel pretty guilty about the relatively easy life i live. never really feared for hunger or shelter the way my parents once did, the way countless people do every day

isn’t about living an easy or care-free or simple life. it is about making change and progress

just do the right thing

and probably not moving 

and perhaps even trust it, life will make sure you get to where you need to be, when you need to be, with those that you need to be with

are a variant manifestation of the one. worship the one through fulfillment, joy and helping the other ones around you to the best of your ability.

been starting to think that your religious beliefs/philosophy are no more a choice than the color of your skin, sexuality, preference for aesthetics, etc. some things just can’t be explained

the best life, is a comfortable one. the good old life. i am not so sure of that. at all.
