“Don't leave me", "Don't go away", "Don't forget me"... it seems to me, a tragedy, that these words so divine are the words that everyone is trained to never say. We are trained to never say and to never listen, to these words. These are the sentiments we were born into this world with as infants, the purest form of soul, the same sentiments we are trained to murder in ourselves and in others. We wage a war against what it means to be alive and then we wonder why we're killing ourselves. If I say these things to someone, and they still leave me, I have not lost anything because I have truly lived.”

“Oftentimes, we think we are in control of our lives and journey. Suddenly, we experience the unexpected and we think we are being chastised but instead we are being awakened to see that we were never in control of our lives. We were only walking on grounds that make us comfortable. Without the right thought process, we may choices that lead to consequences which may bring us pain, awaken ego and fear and make us more vain. Reality is that until you find your true self, connect with your spirit and soul (remember you are a spiritual being before the physical/flesh), you will be breaking the shells of your fragile heart, inflicting pain on others and drawing yourself away from the light and truth that you are. The moment you make the decision to find yourself, your life will forever be changed and you will see life in the true meaning of which God created it to be. Your perspective will forever be changed and you will never be the same again”

“I grew up in a day and age where hitting .250 in any given season made you a god. It was a smaller game back then. You had to hit smart and run well. There was mind to it. Then they put in a jackrabbit ball and it became a thing of brawn. You had to pitch the seams off the goddam thing or knock it into the stands every game if you wanted to be anyone. The people want that action and maybe you can give it to them for a time. But your fame will not last. It's how you play the game day in and day out, through cold streaks and shit-hole road trips. You better enjoy every goddam bus and rain delay and asswipe motel and old loud-mouthed manager and drop to the minors. Because that's what this is. It ain't glory. It's a long, ugly haul. And at the end of the day you may be a hero or you may be a washed up never been. That's all.”
