Hallelujah

Last week in our Sunday meeting those who preached the gospel were asked to focus on blessings. As I sat back and listened I was reminded just how fortunate I am to have true wealth.

Someone once said- "Empty your purse into your mind and you will never be poor" as I work on various projects to bless my family monetarily I often forget what true wealth is. The word Hallelujah simply means "Praise be to God" in Hebrew. I would be remiss if I didn't share my thoughts here. A friend of mine was talking about being a provider and making sure his families needs were met. Mostly we talk about trading stocks, but today was a bit different.

Let me tell you what is worth giving praise to God...

ANY THING GOOD IN YOUR LIFE! No matter how hard you work and how much money you earn and so on; you and I were given everything through the LORD omnipotent. plant seeds and water them, but remember that God gives the increase.

If your not trading stocks right now and you are uncertain that's fine. But don't loose your edge. Now is the time to cut bait. So while you do it, let your mind focus on the tremendous blessings of living in a free country where we can participate in a republic that allows us to practice a capitalistic system.

Life by the drop

I'm not sure what has lead me to take the time to share something with all of you... S.R.V. was and is a major influence in my life and choice of music, friends and so on. To me Stevie was a perfect example of how god can give and take. Stevie had a gift that is so very rare among men. His story is a sad yet inspiring. The song "Life by the Drop" (for me) represents so many things.

The best part of SRVs story is that he died after having recovered from severe addiction. He said in an interview once that the best work of his life was produced after getting help to overcome demons. He did not O.D. or kill himself like others who have gone before and after. He was strong enough to surrender to the truth.

SRV had the touch, gift, mojo... call it what you will. I have listened to his music all of my life and I always get goose bumps when I hear him hit that one special note that only he can grab...

I have no doubt that the next few years will hold challenges and pain for all man kind.

So here is my challenge to you and I take it myself: Ready? Do it! whatever it is you need to do (you know what I am talking about) Face your demon and live the life you know you are meant to.

This song is so profound and I will let you find meaning in it for your own needs... But please don't procrastinate one more day (for SRV it meant Hard Core drug addiction) for you it may be something different, I know I can never be as good at playing the guitar as SRV- Thats not my goal. But every time I watch and listen to greatness I fee something deep in my soul that stirs... What is stirring in you? Are you going to bring it to a boil? or just fade away...

Here is my week as I see it going down...

1-Get 12 workouts in- that's about 30 hours in the Gym, Pool, road runner whatever it takes
2-Push my limits in mental terms... read 2 hours a day
3-Get someone on the midnight express with me-
4-Grow with the pain

Please join me if you are willing- that's what I meant by "getting on the midnight express.

God be with you all.

I'll be doing my first workout in about 40 minutes so I can get a strong start!

more to come... see ya tomorrow after the market breaks key support levels

Montazumas Revenge

Well party people. I'm still short the DOW and long gold. I don't see the bulls getting much of an upper hand any time soon. I spent the 30th and 31st in the 4 corners area helping my big brother install a new domestic boiler in a house. We ere freezing and wondering when we would ever get done, but I would not have had it any other way. I love working with my bro. I have included a picture of the project in its final stages... this was about 8:00 PM on new years eve. Good times man!
