2016 And I’m Just Getting Started!!!

So here we are, a new year, same blog home and especially new opportunities for us all.

I’ve been giving a chance back in 2014 to lead a team of mis-guided individuals whom haven’t had a proper leader to help them be their voice and also “fight in the trenches” with them. We’ve had our ups and downs, faced lots of challenges and also changed the perception of what people originally thought of us. Now we are winning and I couldn’t be more proud of a leader. This year will definitely be the beginning of some great successes for us I’m sure.

I’ve also been in an amazing relationship with someone special who I can’t get enough of. She is always there for me and I’m always there for her. I don’t usually brag and get into the details about it. But I’ll keep it truthful and simple, we have a bond that i thought I would never find in another. And I cherish every moment I’m with her.

Don’t know what this year holds for me, or for anyone else. But I intended on making the most of it and getting lots done.

This year is a “building year” in some aspects of my life and I believe the key is to enjoy it as much as you can and with the people who choose to ride with you.

Keep posted here for more updates on my personal mind droppings.

Till next time!

Happy New Year! Make 2015 a Great One!

Happy New Year everyone! I hope your 2015 brings plenty of fun times, fond memories, and unforgettable moments. I have had one heck of a 2014. I took the early part of my year last to accomplish a remodel to my place, spend much needed time with family and set things right with my social life while my professional journey took a pit stop.

And I'm not quitting in the slightest.  I would have posted tons right now on the inter webs getting into the new year and all. But I wanted my first post of the new year to happen when I felt it was ready to happen. So I thank you for taking the time to read this.

So, now I start 2015 with lots done and even more on my plate. I challenge myself to find a professional opportunity to match my skills, yet challenge me enough to make change. Change not just in myself but those around me as well.

Which brings me to today. I'm currently in a professional journey as a leader who had been given a challenge to positively make change and influence others to reach their potential.

I also have many other things planned in the coming months and I don't expect to slow down not one bit. I may find myself moving soon, while putting things in my life in perspective and in clarity.

So please stay tuned!

A Blessing & A Prayer

Today, I was given news that my Godfather has passed away due to a car accident.

I have lots of memories of my Godfather growing up. He was a very reserved and well dressed man. He always looked his best whenever I saw him, whether it be my birthday or my confirmation. He was a good man, like my father.

Sometimes things change in life so much that you have to make sure you take a moment and watch what life has given you.

I have so much respect for my Godfather, and being a Godfather myself, made me think a little deeper about the legacy I would like to leave my God Children.

My Godson actually heard of the news and empathized with the reality that I no longer have a Godfather. Maybe he put himself in my shoes for a moment and his heart fell heavy. He ended up giving me a hug and telling me he was sorry for my lost. What a sweet gesture from a kind soul.

That made me really think about what legacy I would like to leave my Godson one day. And as a Godparent, I was chosen by my Godchild's parents to be a mentor, and additional father figure for them as they grow up and mature through their journey in God and Faith.

So I leave this message with a Blessing and a Prayer for my Godfather...




Angel de Dios, Mi querido Guardián; fuiste enviado para protegernos. En este día permanece junto a mí, para alumbrar y guiar, guardarme y dirigirme. Enseñame, mi querido Angel de la Guarda, a conocer a Dios, para amarlo y servirlo por siempre. Aléjame de todo peligro y enseñame el camino al Cielo. Amén.

May you rest in peace padrino.

~ God Bless ~

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

I had such a great time today with my family.  I'm thankful for my friends that are still with me from the get go and the ones that have joined me for this crazy ride called life. Thanks for everyone that made it out today.  We all live different lives from the ones we lead 3, 4, or more years ago.  And just because our road in life aren't side by side each day, doesn't mean that the roads don't intersect every now and then.  I hope you all took the time to sit back and enjoy the family and friends that you are thankful for.  As I have.  

Which Finger is the Best Finger On Your Hand?

What's your guess?

Seems like a weird question to ask right?  I'm sure many would answer this question with a funny answer.  However, think about it for a moment.  Each finger has a great use for it's owner it's attached too.

Be Thankful Everyday...Not Just Today...

Don't just be thankful, thank others for what they do to make you thankful.

Be Thankful for...

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire, 

If you did, what would there be to look forward to? 

Be thankful when you don't know something, 

For it gives you the opportunity to learn. 

Be thankful for the difficult times, 

During those times you grow.

Make Your Time Count...

This is my message to everyone out there.  Make good use of your time.  Don't be greedy and think about yourself.  Remember those that helped you along the way and are there for you always.  


Here are six terrific truths about time:

First: Nobody can manage time. But you can manage those things that take up your time.

Second: Time is expensive. As a matter of fact, 80 percent of our day is spent on those things or those people that only bring us two percent of our results.

Third: Time is perishable. It cannot be saved for later use.

Fourth: Time is measurable. Everybody has the same amount of time...pauper or king. It is not how much time you have; it is how much you use.

Fifth: Time is irreplaceable. We never make back time once it is gone.

Sixth: Time is a priority. You have enough time for anything in the world, so long as it ranks high enough among your priorities.

Memorial Day Prayer

Prayer for those who have risked their lives for our Freedom and I felt the need to share it. Here's a prayer to share with you from Alden Solovy's fine page, To Bend Light.

To the Soldier, To the Veteran

These things I do not know:
The sound of a bullet.
The power of a blast.
The blood of a comrade.
The depth of your wound.
The terror at midnight.
The dread at dawn.
Your fear or your pain.

These things I know:

The sound of your honor.
The power of your courage.
The blood of your wound.
The depth of your strength.
The terror that binds you.
The dread that remains.
Your dignity and your valor.

For these things we pray:

The sound of your laughter.
The power of your voice.
The blood of your yearning.
The depth of your healing.
The joy that frees you.
The hope that remains.
Your wholeness and your love.

Please everyone have a safe and fun Memorial Day Weekend. God Bless!

Happy New Year To Me!

I'm 33 years young! And I also drew this! Yay!

Yes.  I can't believe it myself.  I'm 33 years old.  It feels like yesterday I was watching transformers in my PJs and eating super huge bowl of lucky charms. Come to think of it, that was yesterday!  I guess things don't really change huh?

I wanted to send this post to and give thanks to all that have wished me a Happy New Year and also a Happy Birthday too! There are a lot of good people in my life and I couldn't have made it this far without the support that I get from my family.  And also the close friends of mine who have been with me throughout my worse times in my life and also celebrated some of the best moments that I'll never forget. So if whether your at work, on a off day, at home taking care of the little ones, or hanging out with me today, my birthday wish to you would be to make the most of your day, no matter how large or small it may be, enjoy it. I know of one kid that will be. Well, I'm a kid at heart, that's gotta count towards something!   :-P

This is pre-teen Saúl.  Say HI! 

Keep It Funky, Keep It Fresh, and I'll catch you on the Flipside!

A Message For Those Dependent For A Valentine

So here you are.  Your alone on Valentine's Day with nothing better to do then feel like a super lame EMO kid who is one bad rock song away from slitting their wrists.  Well, my advice to you?  Grow the Hell up.  Sorry I couldn't really keep that back but I have to be honest with you.  I've come across so many people who feel "Dependent" on hoping or wishing for a Valentine's sweetie to sweep them off their feet and make them feel like a little angel or expect them to buy this super expensive gift or whatnot.  Seriously, just look at this situation your putting yourself through.  Setting expectations for someone who probably doesn't even know you or know you exist.  Now I know what your thinking, "Damn, Saúl is being a jerk right now, he must really hate Valentine's Day."  What I would say to you is that your assumption couldn't be far from accurate about my view on Valentine's Day.  I literary enjoy that day completely.  Being the attractive and superb bachelor that I am, it's so sad when I come across females that I might be interested in at this time of year, and they "break down" when they are single during this time of the year. They feel like their world is gonna end or that it's more like "Single Awareness Day" then anything else.  Truth be told, your life is what you make of it.  If you are currently mad at me while reading this post then you maybe one of the many who feel that they "Need" to be with someone so that they can be happy.  Spend the day with your family if it bothers you that much.  Hang out with friends if you feel the need to be around people other then your family.  Again, my apologies if I've offended you but the reality is you need to take a step back and appreciate yourself for who YOU ARE before you can make the next step of receiving that appreciation from someone else.  The equivalent is that one girl in your group of friends that need to have the most attention or material possessions just to feel better about themselves, aka Gold Diggers.  And in case you are wondering, I do have an awesome day planned for Valentine's thanks for asking.  In the meantime in between time, keep your eyes here for new posts.  

Keep it Funky, Keep it Fresh, and I'll catch you on the Flipside.

Happy New Year To Me!

Yup you read this right.  Today is my Birthday.  And I sit back while taking shot after shot of Don Q Rum, thinking about all that I have done in my life.  I have done a lot.  I've been part of history, I've witness history, and most importantly, I've made history.  In case you weren't aware, I've completed a lot in my life.  And most importantly I intend to do more.  This maybe one of the most important years of my life.  Why?  Well, I can't really say why, at least not now.  However, I can assure you that this year will mark a lot of great events in time to come.  On a personal level I feel I'm at the cusp of being completely content knowing that there aren't currently any mature women that I would care to court.  Yeah, you read this right I said court, not date, not "kick it" with, not none of that modern day slang.  See, I'm old school.  I open doors and bring flowers, but I don't do that for just anyone.  So having me say that I would court you would be some serious shit.  Enough of that for now let's talk about the business.  The state of business right now is that I'm gonna be doing some serious shit this year and I hope that the friends that have been there to see me grow into a better human being can be with me the day(s) that these changes take place.  I noticed that my Birthday today fell on Mother's Day this year.  Nice, growing up around this time of the year one gets used to having to share a Birthday with a Holiday as great as Mother's Day.  I love my mom, she has been there for all of my failures, all of my hardships, all my breakdowns and I wouldn't trade her for anything in this world.  I take a lot from my Mother, she has the most giving heart, and is also the most caring person I know.  In my family she is a Saint, someone everyone looks up too, someone who is the center piece in my family.  And I love her for it.  So, this bottle isn't gonna drink itself, gonna finish this and get ready for the festivites later on today....On My Birthday.

P.S.  B.H.P. ENT-TV® is coming with more Episodes!!! 

Family Blessings - May God Bless My Uncle Nelson

There are no great words that come to my mind to properly express the sorrow that I feel right now.  When I feel this way sometimes I turn here to my own personal space in the world.  However, I do know that you were a good man, you raised a great family who I know is close to each other and holds each other dear.  I'm glad that you were able to say what was on your heart the most in your final hours.  I know that my Mom will be there for Aunt Terry, and that she will be cared for.  I can remember way back in the day when I was a little runt how you and my Dad would sit back and share a good story on a many summer days and nights.  Being here in IL and knowing what's going on back in PR makes me want to be there again. I miss my Aunt and hope that, with her brother and sisters, that she can find the strength to make it to a better day. I urge all of you that read this, to know that you can never tell someone that you love them enough. Take the time to tell your wife, husband, kids that you love them, always. I know I will. I'll never know how much time I'll have on this planet but I do know that from the mistakes I've made as a person, I take everyday to do better and be a better person. God Bless you for reading and give an extra strong hug for me.
