During monsoons in Southern Arizona

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

We were on Doordash. My sister and I were driving up a hill on a street and it was raining pretty hard. The road ahead of us was flooded. So, my sister saw that a van had gotten stuck in the rain water. So, then my sister said, “Turn around,”and so we drove the  same way we came from. This is the best advice I have ever received because possibly. I would not be typing this because I would have died. If I drove through those flooded waters. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

This is the quote

What’s a quote that perfectly describes your outlook on life?

The quote: blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed. Alexander Pope- well I have wants from life, but if none of them ever come true, then I will never be disappointed. Sort of the way I think. If something happens great, but if nothing happens. Then, I am all right with that too. As long as, I attempted to get what I want from this life, nothing else will matter. I put this blog together shot in the head because I didn’t receive any justice for what happened to me. So, as long as everyone here knows my struggles with life. I walk with a gimp. My left arm doesn’t function right. Then, I have done all I can and I am happy with that. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

This would be incredible

What are your top 10 travel destinations?

If I could afford to go to all these places. It would be very nice. I would probably not go to all these places at once because the weather is bad during certain times of the year. So, here is my list of places I would like to travel

  1. Tokyo, Japan because of the sushi in the country.
  2. Rome Italy because I would like to see the colleuseum.
  3. Switzerland, in the summertime when the weather is nice. It is a beautiful country.
  4. Sicily because I am Sicilian so I would like to find my roots.
  5. Paris France, just to enjoy the scenery.
  6. Hong Kong to see how life is over there.
  7. Singapore, to see how beautiful the city is.
  8. London, England to see how life is over in England.
  9. Honolulu, Hawaii to witness the gorgeous beaches there
  10. Seoul, South Korea to witness the beauty of the city.

Not saying I will ever go to these places, but they are my top destinations.

Honolulu will probably be the first place I would go to because it is part of the United States and the ocean is beautiful there. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

This is my favorite quote

What is your favorite quote?

This quote is my favorite quote. Not all people are bad, but we have some really bad people that want to ruin the lives of good people. Some people just want to live their life with little interference. Then, we have people who want to hurt other people, which is wrong.

The quote: “Hell is other people.” said by Sartra. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

This would be it

If you had to give one life-changing tip, what would it be?

Whatever the media tells you, being shot in the head is not fun. It is a miserable existence, depending on where you get shot in the head. Every brain injury is different. If you get shot on the left side of the brain. You get depressed, such as me. I was shot on the left side of my head. If you get shot on the right side of the brain. You don’t acknowledge you have an injury, which is kind of weird. My advice to anyone who is reading this. Don’t get shot in the head. It is the best advice I can give. When you get shot in the head, limbs don’t work right. You forget things a lot, depending on what lobe you get shot in, such as the temperal lobe controls memory and it is located on the left and right hemispheres of the brain. It is above the ear. It is terrible being shot there because I don’t remember movies, names of people. So never get shot in the head. You see someone with a gun. Hit the ground and cover your head. It is a lot better to be shot in the arm than the head. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

These skills most don’t do

What’s a skill you consider basic, that most people don’t actually know how to do?

Lots of people have different set of skills. My skills are more musical. I play the drum set. I write lyrics, and I sing a little bit. I play the shaker too. I only have one arm to play drums with but I make the most of what I have. I have been playing drums a long time. It is my favorite thing to do.
I also can empathize with people and walk in their foot steps pretty good and be there when they are feeling down. I attempt to be resilient and bounce back from a bad situation. It is hard to not focus on the injury that happened because I live with it everyday, but I am trying to not focus on it too much. I also actively listen and usually can summarize key parts of conversations, as long as they are not too complicated. I have a good sense of humor. I think. Sometimes, I get despondent, but I drink some coffee and that makes me feel better. Thank you for reading. Have a nice night.

This character I can sort of relate too.

Who is the fictional character you relate to the most?

This is Justice from the Watchman movie. He always gets justice. Those who seek justice like Justice always get justice.
I am still waiting for justice for being shot in the head, but if I was Justice. I would already have justice. My problem is the family is always protecting  the cousin and he is in hiding.  He is the absolute meaning of a pussy and a coward. He will not confront me because he knows I want money. So, he is nowhere to be found. But, if I was Justice. I would demand and get Justice. He would just beat up the assailant (the cousin) and that would be that. So, this character I can sort of relate too because he always gets justice. He is that good. Thank you for reading. Have a great night.

More or less

Do you think everything happens for a reason?

Cloudy days or the moon shining through the clouds. I think things just happen. I dont think everything happens for a reason. My injury of being shot in the head didn’t happen for a reason. I think it was because of bad luck or a bad situation. There is no reason for it to have happened. I think about the injury a lot and that’s my conclusion. It should not have happened. My life didn’t get enhanced because it happened, that’s for sure. So no things don’t happen for a reason. Thank you for reading. Have a nice night.

Goal of any home!

What’s your home decoration style?

It isn’t a home if the home doesn’t look lived in so here is my example of a house looking lived in, a display of cookies because cookies are delicious and you can really live it up by eating these cookies. These cookies may not be your ideal house, but they make a good addition to your house, especially if they are homemade.
This is ideal for me. Well, first off the home looks lived in because of the towels on the bed. This is sort of what my house looks like except there isn’t a fancy smancy white dresser with a light on it and other things on it. I have a little table for my cellphone to charge by my bed. I am not big on decorating my home because I like living simple and as long as I have the basic items out. I am good. Thank you for reading. Have a good night.
