Perception

Personal Perception.

I find it interesting culture differences... professional differences... and personality differences.

I think it's fascinating that someone can do something one way and be genuine and hard working about it... but because of circumstances and expectations of how to react, they could be seen as something else.

What works for you culturally may not work for you or be acceptable by someone else.

What you think is honorable and respectable professionally may come across as completely rude and inconsiderate.

Even if you do stay true to yourself and try to be a respecting, nice, hard working and honorable person... you can offend someone.

Isn't that fascinating????

How to resolve...
I don't have the answer, but can only assume that communication is key.
And when that is not possible... understand that people may hate you for who they "think" you are... and in that hate, they are only disturbing their own peace.

How to make a difference...
Try not to take anything that anyone does personal... (courtesy of Ryron Gracie)
Also know that every moment with a human being is nothing but a small tiny film clip of a huge motion picture. Don't expect to understand the persons character from one incident or scene of it.

Good luck humans. Inspire someone today.

I had to share this blog post of my friend Kristin Egusa who was in Japan during the quakes.

A little insight from someone who lived it.


As for me ... I'm just happy for health, love and life.

Stay blessed,

Simply Complex...

Inspired by a beautiful soul I'm so lucky to make moments with... I dive into her well said "Simply Complex"

Simply...
I am a child.
Complex...
I run free to choose my daily chores, to pay or not to the bills, to eat well or divulge into the sugary temptations of life, to learn more lessons, to meet more friends, to bring more joy into lives through my passions or to hide away in my fort.

Simply...
I want to love and be loved.
Complex...
To love those around you without expecting things in return, to be loved without feeling judged, to give love even if it isn't taken well, to show love and see the surprising face on someone who didn't expect it, to inspire to love through acts of love.

Simply...
I want to grow.
Complex...
Mentally grow to comprehend things beyond my age and emotional capability, emotionally grow to be able to understand not to take our mental too seriously and spiritually grow enough to know that all this doesn't matter.

Simply...
I want to perform.
Complex...
I want to move people, touch peoples hearts, warm peoples souls, brighten peoples day, inspire peoples life choices all through my passion to perform, which I'm lucky to call work.

Simply...
NOW.
Complex...
Now is already gone, now is never here. When you want things to happen now, it's impossible with fear. NOW. NOW. It's just a moment, already gone, yet still here NOW. Why do we want things to happen NOW? Now, let's begin the next moment.


Inspired by the lovely Roxanne... I am Simply Complex.

Happy New Year... Happy New You!

Currently touring again with my favorite show, the Nuclear Cowboyz are at it again!
This years team grew, adding acrobats and an extra quad and trial rider! Together we make a new team known as the Shadow Warriors!

The amount of work gone into this is described by my dear friend Ferly in the blog of the main site: http://www.nuclearcowboyz.com . She said everything we all were thinking and feeling through this incredible journey.

This is a shot from our first show in Baltimore which was a sold out packed house of amazing energy!

I'll be touring with this job while Ryron set up seminars in every city we're touring so we can tour together ;) Awesome way to start off 2011!!


I finished off 2010 with the privilege of shooting some awesome stuff!

We shot a new episode of GLEE! I'll be in the Superbowl episode! I am unable to post pictures of that until the episode airs :)

The DVD i shot for George St. Pierre's MMA workout is now available! I have yet to get one, but can tell you that in filming this DVD, I sincerely have never been through a better workout... check it out here : http://www.gsprushfit.com/


This picture below is from a spoof of the Boyz II Men video I shot with Romany Malco!


I also had the honor of sharing a set with beautiful ladies and a talented artist, Nelly. This was for an upcoming episode of 90210! The people on this set were such a pleasure to work with and so chill and professional. Awesome day!


Lastly... on December 1, 2010.... Ryron Gracie proposed to me... and I said YES!!!!!
Meeting him and having him by my side for these years has been such an unbelievable indescribable pleasure. I've learned more than I thought possible in areas I may have never been open to experience and learned to love more than I knew I could. I truly believe we bring the best out of each other and only hope to be able to do this for the rest of our lives.


May you all be blessed to live this very moment to it's fullest... I treasure the NOW because it is all we can be sure to have.

Thank you for allowing me to share my life and thoughts with you with an open mind and judge-less heart.
