Bruce Lee and his wife, Linda, shared a remarkable partnership that went beyond the typical boundaries of a marriage. They met in 1963, when Bruce was teaching martial arts at the University of Washington, where Linda was a student. The two quickly fell in love, and despite the challenges of being in an in*******al relationship during a time when societal attitudes were less accepting, they married in 1964.
Linda stood by Bruce throughout his journey as he transitioned from being a martial arts instructor to becoming an international film icon. She provided unwavering support as Bruce faced many struggles in Hollywood, where roles for Asian actors were severely limited. Despite these obstacles, Bruce remained committed to his vision of promoting martial arts and bridging cultural gaps through his work. Linda was not only his emotional support but also his practical partner, helping him manage his martial arts schools, his career, and his family.
Together, they raised two childrn, Brandon and Shannon. Linda’s dedication to Bruce’s legacy became especially important after his untimely death in 1973. She took it upon herself to preserve and promote Bruce's philosophy and teachings, ensuring that his impact on martial arts and film would continue to be felt long after his passing.
Linda’s role in Bruce’s life was not only as his wife but also as a partner in his creative and professional endeavors. She believed in his vision of martial arts as more than just physical combat but as a way of life, a philosophy that would inspire millions. Even after his death, she has remained the custodian of his legacy, working tirelessly to share his life story and ensure his lasting influence on popular culture and martial arts around the world.

This year may not have gone the way you planned, but it taught you more than you expected.
In the struggles, you found strength; in the heartbreaks, you discovered what truly matters.
Life has a way of revealing its deepest lessons through pain, and somewhere along the way, you began to heal.
Slowly, piece by piece, you started to understand what you need, what you deserve, and what you’re ready to leave behind.
As you step into the new year, let those realizations guide you. Trust that the healing you’ve worked so hard for will carry you toward brighter, more peaceful days..

“Socrates said, “The misuse of language induces evil in the soul.” He wasn’t talking about grammar. To misuse language is to use it the way politicians and advertisers do, for profit, without taking responsibility for what the words mean. Language used as a means to get power or make money goes wrong: it lies. Language used as an end in itself, to sing a poem or tell a story, goes right, goes towards the truth. A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls. Story-tellers and poets spend their lives learning that skill and art of using words well. And their words make the souls of their readers stronger, brighter, deeper.”
~ Ursula K. Le Guin

🥺🇵🇹 "Ronaldo is a very fighter, he works hard and has a good heart. When he was little, he went through many difficulties and wanted to be a football player so he could help his family.
I have always liked soccer. I always wanted Ronaldo or other son to be a player, but I never imagined Ronaldo would be one of the best. For me it is a great pride.
I want to convey to those women who don't ab**t, fight and don't give up because you never know what a child can give us.
Fight and don't give up."

Wow!!! This is wonderful!!!!
He was called "filthy" because his skin was dark, unintelligent because he could barely speak English. When he arrived in this country, he was placed in a special class for immigrants. But, a few of his teachers saw something in the way he expressed himself, through his drawings, through his view of the world. He would soon master his new language.
His mother had made a difficult decision to take him, his two younger sisters and a half-brother to America, seeking a better life for their family. They settled in Boston's South End, at the time the second-largest Syrian-Lebanese-American community. The family would struggle and the young boy would lose one sister and his half-brother to tuberculosis. His mother would die of cancer.
He would write, “Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.”
He was born in poverty on January 6, 1883 in what is now modern day Lebanon.
He believed in love, he believed in peace, and he believed in understanding.
His name was Kahlil Gibran, and he is primarily known for his book, "The Prophet." The book, published in 1923, would sell tens of millions of copies, making him the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Laozi.
Published in 108 languages around the world, passages from "The Prophet" are quoted at weddings, in political speeches and at funerals, inspiring influential figures such as John F. Kennedy, Indira Gandhi, Elvis Presley, John Lennon, and David Bowie.
He was very outspoken, attacking hypocrisy and corruption. His books were burned in Beirut, and in America, he would receive death threats.
Gibran was the only member of his family to pursue scholastic education. His sisters were not allowed to enter school, primarily because of Middle Eastern traditions as well as financial difficulties. Gibran, however, was inspired by the strength of the women in his family, especially his mother. After one sister, his mother, and his half-brother died, his other sister, Mariana would support Gibran and herself by working at a dressmaker's shop.
Of his mother, he would write:
"The most beautiful word on the lips of mankind is the word 'Mother,' and the most beautiful call is the call of 'My mother.' It is a word full of hope and love, a sweet and kind word coming from the depths of the heart. The mother is everything – she is our consolation in sorrow, our hope in misery, and our strength in weakness. She is the source of love, mercy, sympathy, and forgiveness."
Gibran would later champion the cause of women’s emancipation and education.
He believed that “Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being.”
In a poem to new immigrants, he would write, "I believe you can say to the founders of this great nation. 'Here I am. A youth. A young tree. Whose roots were plucked from the hills of Lebanon. Yet I am deeply rooted here. And I would be fruitful.'"
He would write in "The Prophet":
“Let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf. Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music. Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. And stand together, yet not too near together: For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.”

BLACK SHEEP SHOULD BE CALLED FAMILY LIONS
Bert Hellinger
Within every family there are unique patterns-breaker members, the so-called “black sheep.” “However, far from being a burden or a problem, they are actually the lions of the family system, the pathfinders toward liberation of the family tree.
From a young age, they often question beliefs, challenge traditions, and make way for paths never before traveled. They are the ones criticized, judged or even rejected, but they play a fundamental role: freeing the family from repetitive patterns that have caused frustration for generations.
Those rebellious spirits that do not fit, those who cry revolution and do not conform to the established, are agents of change. They are those who heal, purify and regenerate the family tree, creating new branches, full of life and possibilities.
Thanks to their courage and tenacity, family roots are renewed. Their rebellion is fertile soil, their apparent madness feeds the tree like invigorating water, their perseverance brings new winds, and their passion ignites the flame that reignites the hearts of those who preceded them.
Do not allow anyone to dim your light or make you doubt your essence. Take care of your uniqueness, that "rare" that is the most beautiful and precious flower of your family tree.
You are, in fact, the dream come true of your entire ancestral lineage and an inspiration to humanity.

The Mind according to Buddhism
Modern science defines the mind as, the flow of information within the neuronal system. Information is represented by the neuron system. Awareness is an aspect of the mind. The scientists suggest that mind is located in the brain. However, according to the Dhamma mind cannot be found in a particular place in the body. The nature of the mind is indescribable; it has no form, no color etc. The mind is what we are and it experiences happiness, suffering, desire, aversion, and is subjected to pleasant and unpleasant emotions. According to the Dhamma the mind has two states; pure mind which is enlightened and impure mind which is afflicted by much suffering.
Buddhists and neurobiologists, who are studying the nature and the function of the brain have made a long-term dialogue and engaged in collaborative researches regarding the human mind. The collaborative research includes the relationship between mind, body, and memory. Buddhism classifies mind in the dhamma as related to the activity of the five aggregates, the twelve sense-bases and the eighteen elements. The five aggregates are,
1. Rūpa - form
2. Vedanā - feeling
3. Saññā - perception
4. saṅkhāra - formation
5. viññāṇa - consciousness
Among them, beside form, feeling, recognition, and consciousness are aspects combined with the mind. The formations includes both mental and physical elements of the human being.
One of prominent teachings in Buddhism is that of the Four Noble Truths. The First Noble truth, the truth of suffering, discusses the nature of suffering. The truth of suffering has deep relevance to consciousness. There are three types of suffering:
1. Dukkha dukkha - Blatant suffering
2. Vipariṇāma Dukkha - Suffering of changes
3. Saṅkhāra Dukkha - ubiquitous suffering
First, noble truth commonly elucidates the feelings relevant to the mind. The Second Noble Truth, the Truth of the Causes of Suffering. The causes of suffering, are taṇhā (desire) and Kamma. Kamma is defined in Buddhism as voluntary actions. This takes into account mental afflictions and Kamma aspects of the consciousness as well. The third Noble Truth, the Truth of Cessation is an attribute of consciousness. The Fourth Noble Truth, the Truth of the Path to Cessation, includes the qualities of mind. According to the aforementioned facts it is clear that tamed mind brings Nibbāna and un-tamed mind leads to continue Saṃsāra. The phenomena that purify the mind are wholesome excellent qualities of the mind. The phenomena that defile the mind are unwholesome qualities of the mind that affect it.
All mental phenomena have the mind as their forerunner; they have mind as their chief; they are mind-made. If one speaks or acts with an evil mind, “dukkha” follows him just as the wheel follows the hoof print of the ox that draws the cart.
All mental phenomena have mind as their forerunner; they have mind as their chief; they are mind-made. If one speaks or acts with a pure mind, happiness (sukha) follows him like a shadow that never leaves him.
“manopubbaṅgamā dhammā” means all the mental phenomena have mind as their forerunner in the sense that the mind is the most dominant, and it is the cause of the other three mental phenomena, feeling “vedanā”, perception “saññā” and mental formations “saṅkhāra”. These three have mind or Consciousness “viññāṇa” as their forerunner, because although they arise simultaneously with mind as they cannot arise if mind does not arise. In “manasā ce paduṭṭhena” and “manasā ce pasannena” here “manasā” means intention cetanā. Volition leads to both good and evil. This volition and the resultant actions constitute Kamma. “dukkha” means suffering, or physical or mental pain, misfortune, un-satisfactoriness, evil consequences, etc. “Sukhaṃ” in the context, stands for happiness, satisfaction, fortune etc. and rebirth in higher planes.
“The mind is excitable and unsteady. It is difficult to control and to restrain. The wise trains his mind to be upright as a fletcher straightens an arrow.”
“As a fish quiver when taken out of Water and thrown on to the ground, so does the mind quiver when it is taken out of the sensual world to escape from the realm of Māra.”
It is difficult to keep the mind fixed on a single object (Durakkhaṃ) when meditating and difficult to restrain the mind from drifting towards sensual pleasures (dunnivarayaṃ). The wise train (ujuṃ karoti) their sensuous, unruly mind by means of tranquility and insight Meditation. (samatha and vipassanā)
“The mind is difficult to control; swiftly and lightly, it moves and lands on wherever it pleases. It is good to tame the mind, for a well-tamed mind brings happiness.”
“yatthakāmanipātino” means moving about wherever it pleases, landing on any sense object without any control. “sukhāvahaṃ” means brings happiness, fortune, satisfaction, etc.
“The mind is very difficult to see, very delicate and subtle; it moves and lands on wherever it pleases. The wise guard his mind, and guarded mind brings him happiness.”
“The mind wanders far and moves about alone: it is formless; it lies in the cave. Those who control their mind will be freed from the bonds of Mara.”
“If the mind is unsteady, if he is ignorant of the true Dhamma, and if his faith is wavering, then his knowledge will never be perfect.”
“If the mind is free from passion, if he is free from ill will, if he has eradicated both good and evil, and if he is vigilant, for such a person there is no danger.”
Knowing that this body is like an earthen jar, making one’s mind secured like a fortified town, one should fight Māra with the weapon of wisdom. Even after defeating Māra one should still continue to guard one’s mind, without feeling attachment to that which has been gained.
“Before long, alas, this body, deprived of consciousness, will lie on the earth, discarded like a useless log.”
A thief may harm a thief; an enemy may harm an enemy; but a wrongly directed mind can do oneself far greater harm.” According to the commentary, the mind set on the ten-fold evil path is known as a wrongly directed mind.
“Not a mother, nor a father, nor any other relative can do more goodness for the well-being of one than a rightly-directed mind can.”
Aṅguttara Nikāya, Ekaka Nipāta, Akammaniya Vagga mentions about the nature of developed and undeveloped mind as follows,
“Monks, I do not know of any other thing that is unmanageable as the undeveloped mind. The undeveloped mind is unmanageable.
“Monks, I do not know of any other thing is that adaptable as the developed mind. The developed mind is adaptable.
“Monks, I do not know of any other thing that is detrimental as the undeveloped mind. The undeveloped mind is detrimental.”
“Monks, I do not know any other thing that is harmless as the developed mind. The developed mind is harmless.”
“Monks, I do not know any other thing that brings unpleasantness as an undeveloped mind. The undeveloped mind bring unpleasantness.”
“Monks, I do not know any other thing that brings pleasantness as a developed mind. A developed mind brings pleasantness.”
The Theravāda Sutta Piṭaka defines mind and consciousness clearly. Scientific investigation discovers threefold categories of subtle consciousness during the dying process. According to Vajrayāna Buddhism, there are two types of consciousness. One type of consciousness, consists of a permanent stream or an unending continuity. The second consciousness arises from moment to moment, and is constantly in a state of flux.
There is nothing in the mind that remains static and everything is constantly in a state of flux due to the causes and conditions. In the same way scientific observation on the atoms assert that, the constant fluctuations of minute particles.

"When life breaks you, it is because you are ready to be put back together differently. Every piece of you that feels shattered is a piece that will find a new place, a new purpose, a new meaning. Trust that the cracks are where the light gets in. And sometimes, in our brokenness, we find our greatest wholeness. We find the courage to rebuild, to reimagine, to redefine what it means to be strong. You are not broken; you are breaking through."

"Money don't mean nothing to me. I got a lot of money but I want to enjoy life and not stress building up my bank account. I give a lot and live a simple life, especially using a suitcase in hotels. "We all know that good health is much more important." : Keanu Reeves
The actor made a lot of money — according to some estimates, about $315 million — but a longtime family friend told the Post: “He’s a little embarrassed about it.”
Keanu Reeves is said to be "embarrassed" by the amount of money he's made as a movie star - so he presents co-workers, family and others with generous gifts.

A poem by Robert Frost "Acceptance"
Robert Frost
When the spent sun throws up its rays on cloud
And goes down burning into the gulf below,
No voice in nature is heard to cry aloud
At what has happened. Birds, at least, must know
It is the change to darkness in the sky.
Murmuring something quiet in its breast,
One bird begins to close a faded eye;
Or overtaken too far from its nest,
Hurrying low above the grove, some waif
Swoops just in time to his remembered tree.
At most he thinks or twitters softly, “Safe!
Now let the night be dark for all of me.
Let the night be too dark for me to see
Into the future. Let what will be be.”

The Eight-fold Path guides individuals toward ethical conduct, mental discipline, and wisdom, promoting a peaceful existence. Meditation practices encourage inner peace, enabling practitioners to respond to challenges calmly and compassionately. Overall, Buddhism fosters a holistic approach to life, emphasizing that personal tranquility contributes to a more harmonious world.
