WAIPA IN REAL LIFE: 2013-03-17

MY INTRO

ALOHA AND WELCOME TO MY PERSONAL BLOG!!! I THOUGHT WHY NOT SHARE MY PERSONAL GAINS & STRUGGLES THAT LIFE PUTS OUT TO EACH AND ONE OF US. I FEEL THAT THROUGH THE GIFT OF "GIVING & SHARING", THERE IS NO WAY BETTER THAN START THIS BLOG WHICH IS ALL ABOUT ME, MY OHANA (FAMILY), HOALOHA (FRIENDS), AND EVEN ENEMIES WHICH ARE THE VERY ONES I NEED TO LOVE AND ACCEPT.

I'LL SAY THIS STRAIGHT UP, I DON'T HOLD BACK MY FEELINGS FOR ANYONE AND IT'LL COME OUT OF MY MOUTH ON HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOU AND OTHERS. I DON'T GO BEHIND ANYONE'S BACK AND START RUMOURS WITH HOPES THAT IT WILL CIRCLE AROUND AND FINALLY HIT ITS TARGET. WHY TAKE THE LONG ROUTE WHEN I CAN GO STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. PERSONALLY, I THINK THAT IS THE "REAL" WAY OF LIVING LIFE, "BE REAL" AT ALL TIMES EVEN WHEN THE WORLD IS WATCHING.

ON THE OTHER NOTE, "I AM" THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE FROM THE WAY "I SEE IT". I AM NOT SPEAKING FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S FEEDBACK OR "CONCEITEDNESS". "THIS IS" WHAT I CHOOSE TO SEE MYSELF EVERYDAY WHEN I WAKE UP FROM MY BED AND THANK "AKUA" (GOD) FOR GIVING ME ONE MORE DAY TO LIVE, REGARDLESS OF REGRETS FROM THE "YESTERDAYS" TO THE FEARS OF "TOMMOROWS".

IN MY EYES, LIVING A "BEAUTIFUL LIFE" CAN ONLY BE ATTAINED BY "CHOICE" AND IT REQUIRES "INTEGRITY", "HONESTY", "UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE", "FORGIVENESS" AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, "LOVE".

AS MY BEAUTIFUL ANCESTORS HAVED ALWAYS BELIEVED:

'Ike aku, 'ike mai, kokua aku kokua mai; pela iho la ka nohana 'ohana.

WHICH MEANS, RECOGNIZE OTHERS, BE RECOGNIZED, HELP OTHERS, BE HELPED; SUCH IS A FAMILY RELATIONSHIP.

SO ONCE AGAIN, "WELCOME TO MY BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!"

I MUST ADMIT THAT LAST WEEK WAS PROBABLY MY MOST CHALLENGING WEEK I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME!!!

MY MAIN HIGHLIGHT OF THAT WEEK WAS MY INTRO TO "CROSS FIT". IT WAS TRULY AN EYE OPENER AND YET AN "AWWWESOME" HIGH INTENSITY WORKOUT THAT I'M SO FORWARD TO DOING!!!

ANOTHER HIGHLIGHT IS I AM STILL STICKING TO MY "INTERVAL RUNNING DRILLS" AND I'LL BE STEPPING UP THE PACE TO INCREASE MY ENDURANCE AS INSTRUCTED PER COACH!!!

"PROJECT SYNERGY" - PHASE 02 - DAY 22.

ALOHA "TEAM AWWWRITE!!!"

AFTER AN "AWWWESOME" SATURDAY NIGHT DINNER & DESSERT AND A VERY WELL RESTED SATURDAY EVENING... I WOKE UP VERY ALIVE AND WELL FOR SUNDAY MORNING.

AND GUESS WHAT'S SUNDAY MORNING IS??? MY 2ND WEEK OF "INTERVAL RUNNING DRILLS!!!"

I GOT UP AND STRETCHED A LITTLE AND THEN PUT ON MY WINTER GEARS LIKE I WAS GETTING READY TO LEAVE FOR HAWAI'I!!!

TIE UP OF SHOE LACES AND I JUMPED INTO MY TRUCK AND DROVE DOWN TO "KASUYULI SUBDIVISION", BETHEL, ALASKA TO MEET UP WITH MY COACH!!!

AS SOON AS I ARRIVED AT OUR MEETING SPOT... MY COACH WASN'T THERE YET. BUT IT WAS COOL BECAUSE I GOT TO RELAX AND BREATH DEEPLY BEFORE I START MY RUN.

AND MY CLOCK IS TICKING AWAY... STILL NO COACH. SO I CALL HER UP AND SHE WAS STILL SLEEPING... LOL!!! SHE WORKED VERY LATE AND SHE SAID SHE'S ALL SORRY AND SHE'S ON HER WAY DOWN TO MEET UP WITH ME. I SAID HER... "TAKE A BREAK AND GET MORE REST, I CAN DO THIS ON MY OWN I WILL STICK TO THE PLAN AS INSTRUCTED"... STILL INSISTED BUT I REALLY WANT HER TO REST AS SHE DESERVES IT. SHE'S DONE SO MUCH FOR ME AND I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR HER GUIDANCE AND MOTIVATIONS!!!

"TAKE A BREAK COACH... I GOT THIS!!!"

SO AS I SOON AS I GOT OFF THE PHONE... A STRANGE FEELING CAME ACROSS ME AS I LOOKED OUTSIDE MY TRUCK, THE BLIZZARD BECAME STRONGER AND HARDER TO SEE MORE THAN 10 FEET IN FRONT OF ME. I BEGAN TO HAVE SECOND THOUGHTS AND ALMOST CANCELED MY RUN. THEN MY ORIGINAL VISION CAME INTO PICTURE... MY DAUGHTER, KAHEALANI RUNNING SIDE BY SIDE WITH ME ON A BEAUTIFUL STRETCH IN BEAUTIFUL KEAUKAHA, HILO, HAWAI'I!!!

AND IMMEDIATELY RIGHT AFTER I GOT OUT OF MY TRUCK... THE BLIZZARD JUST STOPPED!!! AND I'M NOT KIDDING... IT JUST STOPPED COMPLETED AND I COULD SEE FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER END OF THE ROAD!!!

AND OFF I WENT...
