It’s been a while since I posted about my younger brother’s death. But, today I think that it’s not good idea to stop living because someone, so close, died . There are so many reasons to be happy anyway. I’ve still got my wife and my children, whom I love so much. In the meantime we’ve traveled to Spain. It was a wonderful trip to the Costa Blanca. We stayed at a hotel in the city of Lloret de Mar. We hired a car...
My Life
I had to do something with this. Because, until today I didn’t know how to express myself about what happened. You know, my youngest brother 39 years old had a cardiac arrest, totally unexpected. It sounds hard and it is, but in a way I don’t feel like crying. I don’t feel I want to mourn neither. It was a while ago since I saw my brother and everytime we saw each other we got along very well. Only, the last few years...
Yesterday I went for a higher number of reps in my sets of disciplines. But, I grouped them in sets of 20 or 30 reps. For instance, the push-ups I did in groups of 20 push-ups per set. And I did 4 sets. Meaning 80 push-ups in total. I did the same for sit-ups in sets. But the first few sets I did as many as I could before I felt the fatigue in my upper legs. I did 35+25+20+20+20= 120 sit-ups So, my workout looked like this: 1. Push-ups: 80 2....
Recently I purchased two books based on the life of Bruce Lee. One was written by Bruce himself: The Tao Of Jeet Kune Do and the other one: Bruce Lee’s Fighting Method; The Complete Edition; based on notes that Bruce made and illustrated with photos with Bruce and students of his. I must say I’m impressed, because I expected another stylish method; like most other oriental martial arts are. You know; you have to learn established...
In one of my earlier posts I mentioned that I like music of all kinds. But, since my childhood I’ve always liked opera. That’s because my father used to play opera records any time of the day and even while we were sleeping. That left something inside of me. His favourite artist was Mario Lanza. And I have to admit that I’m a huge fan of his too. However, I do notice here and there that some artists perform very well on stage,...
Music is so important to many people, including me. We all have different preferences when it comes to music. It’s a subjective matter. I, for instance, like so many music genres, that it often becomes difficult to say what my favourite kind of music is. It depends on the mood I’m in. When I was 19 years I liked hard rock. AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Saxon, Iron Maiden, Motörhead, The Scorpions, just name it…. I loved it. Later on I...
