Music
Music is something i wish i would have picked up sooner...but my philosophy is that it is never too late. One of the greatest poets didn't start writing his beautiful lirics until he was 40 (RUMI). I guess what i'm saying is that i have been practicing guitar lately and i have been feeling a lot more confortable with the positions and strumming, i rock out with the five cords i know some times. I'm just glad that it is starting to sound like music...i'm getting past the inicial stage of suckyness...i think i have my head about water. It's not going to be down hill from now, but it is going to be more musical. I was one of my best friends play in his bad yesterday...it was really inpriational. To think that we started about the same time...the difference between us being committement. I feel really inspired by him and my increasing ability. I can't do a song yet, though i'm really close. I'm praciticing green eyes by coldplay, though i have modified it to brown eyes for my honey....it one of our songs...the other being a ben harper jam...that one is next.
The reason i'm cool is because i have all this free time because i don't go to work until 4pm. On one side i wish i could make more money by having more hours (and i have tried) but on the other side i 'm enjoying my last days of summer, which has turn out to be a very eventful. We have gone kayaking, hiking, to a couple of theme parks, taken a dance class, and spend some time with my honey. THe only thing not going to be accomplished this summer which i wanted to do is sky diving, due to money....but it will get done...it always money with me.
My brother hugo went to the hospital recently due to an infection...he got cut and didn't take care of it correctly. Everybody thought it was due to some kind of alcoholic thing since he has been drinking heavily for many years now. He is staying with my other brother for the time being. I haven't been able to see him, but i will within the next couple of days...i'll keep you guys informed. That all for now peace.

what up JOSE!!
im glad that you are still playing the guitar and that you are getting better at it. i remember when you started at the house on Julian street. you are definately right about it never being too late to start. i have to remind myself about that... about the whole illusion of time, actually. we have all the time in the universe and then some.
so im sitting at work, by myself (no one comes in on tuesdays) and not really doing much actual work. i am supposed to start these exercises to help my concentration better. you would think i have pretty good concentration considering all programs and art projects and all the other shit that ive accomplished but really, it comes and it goes (much like my creative thoughts) and i dont have the faintest idea how it turns on. but im getting sidetracked...
just wanted to say that im so glad you are having an eventful and blessed summer. nice job on that 7.9 minute mile on the warf to warf. i have started running myself along with bike riding... i would like to do a mini triatholon as well... i cant stop my muscles from getting sore though.
other thing i want to talk to you about is your spirituality. but perhaps another time.
peace
This is EMilio
Great to hear from you dude... oh yeah by the way... I moved out to Fresno a week ago.... will likely create a blog very soon... I'll let you know when it does... good job with teh guitar... keep it up... maybe someday... I will also finish learning how to play... my real love is the piano... but too bulky... eventually I'll learn guitar and fall in love with that instead...
