I want to talk about the importance in ones trust. Trust is something that everyone has and gives to others in order for others to believe in them. The concept of trust has been around for so long that I do not even know how long it has been around. All that I know for sure is that trust deals with both power and loyalty needed towards others. Leaders have given their trust to its people by ensuring their countries safety and prosperity for many many years. This in return, makes the people of that country become loyal to its leader and the country will work as one to better the present and future. There is another factor to this, and that is by the power of fear. Fear is given to many people in order for them to stay loyal and do as the leader would tell you to do. Fear, just like trust, has been around for so long. It’s just like how you read it, “if there is trust, then there is fear and deceit.” It is also like Ying and Yang, hot and cold, water and fire, heaven and earth. Nothing in this world is made up of purely good, because humans are created to be perfect beings; however, we constantly make mistakes in our daily routines in life. But to better this bifactor, one must practice and practice until that mistake can be overcome most of the time. “Practice makes perfect” this is a saying that everyone should know by now.

Little kids that attend school are taught the basic rules that makes up the importance in the world as they grow bigger and older. The golden rule is emphasized greatly for its great importance that will lead them to succession. “Do unto others as you would want them to do unto you.” I have learned this rule since kindergarten and I still remember it until now. This is because every day I and my classmates would recite this rule that is posted on top of the white board with tapes ducted on the tips of the four sides of the poster. Stressing the importance of the rule, every time someone does not get their work done (which is like basically drawing and coloring) would get a deduction of a golden star below their names on the teachers’ board.

I believe that even though we learn the importance of trust and truthfulness, we still lie amongst others to hide our mistakes and wrong doings. No one is to be trusted all the time because they could be the ones spreading the rumors and back stabbing you behind your back without you even knowing it. If knowing that this has occurred to you, you will understand more of what this trust is and the importance in needing it as well as the bad things that come with being a human being.

No one is to be trusted all the time; this is my word to you and I advise you to take my advise very seriously, because “the outside world” that you still do not know about is filled with good and bad that you do not know to the extent of.

my life's philosophy

My life’s philosophy is to pursue ones dreams and passion in what they love to do. Ever dreamed about what you want to be? Or even what you want to achieve? I’m pretty sure you have, because I can assure you that every one of us has had dreams in which we wanted to achieve the very one thing we love to do. Passion is the key in which that motivates ones dream into becoming a reality in which you can accomplish by showing true effort in it.

I remember when I was a kid, my father had asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, and I answered, “When I grow up, I want to be a fisherman.” I know that it may sound funny, but this was something I was very serious with when I was little. When you love something that you have fun in doing isn’t that the path you should go for? Instead of having a boring job which you hate so much and packing up stress each time you do your job. I’d rather have a life in which I would do what I love the most and have fun doing my job as well. I’m not saying that I really want to be a fisherman, but it would be a good choice to think about. Not only would I be fishing, but my main job would be scuba diving, working for the scuba diving company and having fun in doing so, meeting many people who are friendly and in which I would consider them as a part of my family.

Not everyone gets the chance to have a job in which they truly love to do. This is something everyone should think about as they move along in the later years of their life as they start to major in classes they would like to work as. As for me, I am thinking to major in criminal justice where I will be working as a customs in the airport. This may be difficult as I will be working for the federal government, but once I get in, my life will become better with my well paying job. I will also organize my schedule to have enough time for my spearfishing sessions in which I could do an all day trip every weekend or at least once every two weeks or even a month.
Spearfishing not only is fun, but you get to meet many new friends that you can dive with next time and have a great time doing so. This sport is not only fun and exciting, but is also a great way to bond a friendly relationship with others and have parties with the fish that you catch. Spearfishing is also a great adventure in which you can meet other spearo’s around the world and you can experience many great wonders dealing with the underwater world!

if i could change one thing in my past

If I could change one thing in the past, I would have changed the time when I had cut open my heel from swimming. This event happened not too long ago on December 17^th of 2010. This was the last day for our school and Christmas break had started. The weather was looking so beautiful that I had planned to abruptly go to Wing beach and spearfish. Spearfishing has become a sport and a hobby to me that I love so much, because I loved the water ever since I was a kid. Water has always been in my life and my passion for the water has become greater when I had been introduced to spearfishing. Not only did my interest for water increase, but as well as the respect for the inhabitants inhibiting the waters that I swim in.

Some people who do not know how to swim may not understand how deep my passion is for the water, however, someday I want to record my adventures and share it with others who may or may not know me. But the people I want to show the most of my adventures to my friends and family who mean a lot to me. My family does not really love the water like I do. When I was young, my father loved cliff fishing so he would take me along with my mom to a night of cliff fishing where my mom would watch me as she cooks dinner sitting on the carpet. I was too young but as I grew older, my father would take me fishing more often and I would love to follow him every time. My love for fishing was so great that even though my father would try to give me five dollars to cheer me up when I couldn’t go with him, I would reject his offer of the money and try to follow him fishing.

My dad was the first one to introduce me to fishing and I fell in love with it just like my dad did. Although his type of fishing is different from the sport of spearfishing that I do, I still respect the sport of cliff fishing and any other type of sport that deals with fishing. Spearfishing is different from a regular fishing because unlike bottom fishing, spearfishing involves diving and holding your breath as you dive underwater to depths of 10 feet to over 100 feet, depending on how well you have trained to become good enough to dive that deep. As you dive down and reach the bottom, there are many types of ways to hunt fish: stalking the prey, hiding and then ambushing the prey, or stay camouflaged and then catching the prey. Each technique is needed for different kinds of fish and some may work better than the others depending on the type of fish that is being hunted.

Spearfishing is a sport that I love very much and I will never live without it. The love of passion for ones hobby will always be with me until I die.

pleasing others more than pleasing yourself

I think that most and every one of us have experienced this before of what I am about to say. This topic relates to everyone because I know that I am not the only one who has experienced this as well. I know that this topic relates to me so much because I have spent much of my time pleasing others rather than spending time caring for myself. When one's feelings are touched by another, supposedly by the opposite gender, those feelings tend to become greater especially when someone is hearing your feelings and troubles out. When you tell someone of the opposite gender your feelings and troubles, then that troubled person then feels a greater respect to the one who is listening and the one who is listening has more sympathy towards the troubled person. This is how a human's heart works. Every heart contains a certain amount of feelings towards others which is limited until that heart can not take anymore and becomes spiteful towards the world they live amongst. In order for these lives to not lead toward a wrong path, we relieve our “stress” by sharing our troubles and relating them to others who have experienced it.

Not only does this concern to people of the opposite genders relations but as well as to the same gender. This is because I believe that men get along better with men when it comes to understanding each others reasons of depression and their sorrow towards girls. This is the same as saying how girls love shopping while boys love sports and are adrenaline junkies. Throughout experience, I agree to this because I have been through both in which I had to agree upon having a more comfortable feeling while talking towards other guys. You would not feel as awkward as you are talking to a girl about what guys talk about. As to girls talking about how hot guys are and who is the gossip of the day and such. Gossips in my opinion I ought to be around for both sexes however, it seems that girls tend to make those gossips more into a rumor and such.

The only way to escape the turmoil of keeping these pain is to let others know and share those pains with them in which I must say that I have used this quote as well, “ You do not have to keep everything to yourself, the more you keep it to yourself, the more it will affect you with pain. I am here to relieve your pain by taking some of those burden off of your shoulder and putting it on mine and I am sure that most friends are willing to do the same as well. Friends are there to hear you out and help you through those hard times. Never think that you are alone in this world.”

is billiards a sport?

In my opinion, anything that is needed to be moved physically along with a tool is recognized as a sport. Many things are used with tools in our daily lives and is needed for the simplicity and ease of use for constructions and repairs of what not. When someone uses tools to make something out of another object, for example, using carving tools, screws, hammer, and other materials, this is called craftsmanship. Crafting should be a sport that would represent another world of dimension in which involves thinking and skillfully revealing the craftsman's talents.

Swimming uses ones body to propel themselves forward as to billiards in which an individual uses a stick to hit the ball physically in order for the ball to move forward to the designated spot. Golf is a sport that uses similar style in billiards by using a type of stick to hit the ball in order to move forward and put it in a designated spot. Most of the major sports use balls to make a goal and everyone in the team must cooperate in order for their team to score more points and be the best of the best amongst other teams. Time is of the essence in basketball, swimming, track, marathon; however, other sports like golf and baseball do not require a limited time because it could always end quicker than expected times or later.

Anything that is used as both mental and physical is needed for sports. For example, spearfishing is a sport, but more of a hunting. In this sport, your body must be conditioned and prone to temperature changes as it becomes colder as you dive deeper. When you are diving deeper, the pressure will also challenge your body and how comfortable you are with your surroundings with an environment that is not for human to live in. Many may assume that the water is one of the elements that is not harmful to our daily lives, however, the element of water is a very destructive force that should not be taken lightly. The oceans currents is so strong that I would advise you to take precaution as you swim. Rip currents for example is one of the scariest things to experience because you will not realize what had hit you until you are already out 200yards in the water. Rip current focuses on one area mostly in the channel where all the water inside the reef and the shore must go out from. The channel gives this path and is focused on this channel. When a person goes in waters waist deep, it is most likely that you will be sucked out by the current in seconds. The scary thing about this is that people think that it is safe because of how the water is calm at one point and then it turns into a raging water that sucks you out.

All sports should be taken seriously and cautiously in that you know what you are doing and even before you do any of the sports, you should learn the basics of that sport and play safe. Dive safe and always have a partner, always watch the ball as they throw it to you, yield to others passing by as you hit the ball while playing golf. Do not exceed your limits if you think you cannot do it. Always think positive while playing the sport as though you have already won. Respect the sport and have good sportsmanship, in return, you will have respect as well from your peers and opponents.

Pro athletes today are overpaid

Pro athletes are getting overpaid now-a-days because of their sponsorship and advertisement in both the sport and for the brand of clothing and objects that are needed to promote the companies products.Each and every one of the sport is sponsored by brands such as Nike who has sponsored Tiger Woods, who is one of the best golfers in the world.
As society modernizes into a more materialistic era, people can obviously identify multiple changes in advertisements, social medias and networks, and technology. In order to appeal to the public, companies would use sports as an "eye-catcher" for the public. For example, Nike sponsors major pro-athletics such as Tiger Woods and David Beckham. Advertisements would include punchlines that grab customers' attentions. As they see these athletics, the people are brainwashed into thinking if they buy this product, they'll score a hole-in-one like Tiger Woods or a perfect Rainbow shot into a soccer goal like David Beckham. These companies overpay these athletics to promote their products. and in result those in the middle class struggle to make a balanced living.
Though athletics are taxed the same percentage, they still haven enough money to buy their wants while satisfying their needs. As this occurs, a middle class family struggles to pay for mortgage, insurance, and other necessities. How does the government expect the low social class to pay for a living while these athletics flaunt around the world with their money? Is it necessary to pay these athletics such high income? The companies expected people to buy their product with the little money they have. If this cycle continues, the economy will worsen and taxes my result in an increase.
