I thank you spirit of restlessness and longing, for without you I would have never mastered discipline and perseverance. I thank you spirit of restlessness and longing, for without your constant teaching and strength, I would be forever tossed and turned by the waves of the sea. Danny G.
A Persistent Faith
Don’t remain stagnant your entire life, since all opportunities need risks and a persistent faith. When you declare your faith, and persistently march towards your destiny, God shows up and moves mountains, that seemed insurmountable from the start. Danny G.
You’re Forever In Our Hearts (In Loving Memory of Brady Dubeau)
It seems yesterday, you were as happy as can be,
Riding your bike, and pulling stunts all day long.
Life gave you a challenge, so great,
You questioned in disbelief,
And couldn’t understand why.
You were a fierce fighter,
Never wanting to give in,
When the battle was overwhelming
You fought and fought
To relieve the pain.
We’ll always remember,
The days you held on,
Simply for your zest of life.
And we’ll always remember,
The days you held on
All the tears you shed
When life was overwhelmingly sad.
Most importantly
You imparted memories
And love in our hearts,
And we’ll never forget
Nor regret your short journey,
Of simply being yourself.
You touched many lives,
And many tears are shed,
For the great man who left.
Farewell my brother,
Until we meet again
In another dimension
You’re forever in our hearts
And with us always.
You Have Everything You Need
Consider the magnitude of God, if he created the universe out of utter perfection and love. Can there be any limitations to this God and his power? The limits exist only in your mind, and your mind dictates your limitations, not your infirmities. All limitations are self-imposed, so remember this when you enter the world and face opposition and triumph. Just know you’re in control, and you define your limitations, and you have everything you need, ultimately, to fulfill your destiny. Danny G.
Have Faith and Let Go
If he lives inside you indefinitely, know you always have what you need, and you’re always in control. The sole provider, and universal consciousness, is inside you and every consciousness on this planet. Therefore, don’t doubt, trust in the process, and have faith in your source. Danny G.
The Swim to Victory (Poem)
As I swim in the deep cold blue,
Beneath remains squids, sharks, stingrays
And 30 feet deep.
I stay focused on the sandy shore,
About 500 meters away,
As the current comes sweeping my way,
I gasp for air,
In these 10 feet waves,
From the shoreline grace,
Completely focused on my destiny,
Completely focused on my victory,
I’ve pulled through in my mind,
So be it in life.
As the squids try to attach,
And the sharks try to bite,
And the stingrays tries to sting,
I’ve been down this current before,
I won it in my mind,
So be it in life.
Despair Made Me Stronger (Poem)
My deepest moments of despair,
Brought about my strength,
And perseverance and faith.
The moments I so wanted an escape,
Were the moments I prayed and praised
Despite the heartache.
The moments of despair
Reconciled me into appreciation.
It’s what pushed me to be grateful,
Despite the trash in my back pack.
This persistent wave of despair and depression,
Would knock me down
Aggressively without warning.
A constant cloud,
That would follow me
Just waiting to be poured on.
It’s my stiff upper lip,
My determination,
That pulled me through,
Despite my carry-on loaded with scrap.
Today I thank my despair,
Because in the end
It made me stronger,
Persistent,
And aggressively bold,
To not give in
Until my promise is fulfilled,
And I’m still standing,
Like a palm tree,
That bends, but never falls.
Trust Without Reason (Poem)
He asked his father,
What can I do?
It feels like check mate,
I’ve tried everything,
I feel as though,
The weight on my shoulders
Is crippling me now.
Do I lay down?
And let the current sweep me away?
And allow the weight of the tide
To pull me down?
He said to his son,
What is unwavering faith and boldness
And persevering despite doubt?
The son replied I don’t know.
His father replied,
It’s to not know,
And still believe, despite reason.
It’s to say, I don’t understand,
But father I know you have a way,
And I won’t stop nagging,
Until my promise is fulfilled,
And my mission is complete.
Discipline and Practice is Key
What is gaining mastery in your life? Everything takes discipline and practice. How does a pro ball player become a pro ball player? How does a great stock broker become a great stock broker? Everything takes persistent practice and discipline. Without discipline, you can’t stick to anything and without practice you never unlock your true potential. Gaining mastery can start with the simple affirmation, I have discipline, and I will keep my eye on the prize until my desire manifests! Danny G.
Create Your Own Reality
Every opinion is only an opinion until you accept it as your truth. It’s only when you reinforce the opinion with your persistent thoughts, words and actions that you create that reality. Therefore, create your own opinion and reality, and think, speak and act on it, and you shall receive. Danny G.
