Silent Conceptions & Isolated Musings

A brief glimpse into the thoughts, perspectives and ideas which at times float around in my head .!.(o_O) || Contact: SinisterPride @ Everywhere || (O_o).!. I've been trying to tag all my writing as #thoughts but chances are you’ll find more of it under #depression 😫

O no I hope everything gets better soon 💕

Thanks.. Surprised I’m still above tbh

Doing some volunteer work for a congresswoman elect.. Come get some face time with her tomorrow as we walk across the bridge together 😌 - Wear a #mask !! - 7-10 ft apart - Follow the preselected route. If you straggle, you’re on your own. We’re meeting at Queensbridge park to do some stretching and warming up. We’ll start stretching at 11:45 am. We’ll be walking over to the front of Jacob Riis by 12. Waiting till 12:30-1pm then starting the walk. (at Long Island City) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN4ggyFldQa/?igshid=ehd87kuqw496

I'm done with the leading thing.. Just gonna hit the pause button again.. Take a step back and tend to my roots. I'll out source for now if I can so heads up.. I'm interviewing interns at Sinister Inc. & Co. once again..

I think I'm gonna get my yoyo mastery back on point, start practicing my card magic/sleight of hand once again and find my love in the cerebral form of origami once more 🥱

time and energy are the only true currencies in this world, the rest is all a matter of how comfortable you want to be..

Comfort however, is the enemy of growth.. So yeah..

Search job listing sites or find a ninja at a park and ask about sifu li of LIC, ARLP the writer/game designer or simply walk up to anyone with a black bokken, black Jo/Bo, or POC with purple energy and ask about Sinful Omen 😉

Extra heavy on the “Be safe” and “I love you” because life is so short fr

walk away from toxic people before you lose yourself while trying to find the good in them

Literally JUST dealt with this BACK to BACK while reconnecting with my Americanized students 🙄

I know I’ve been really long winded lately, so here’s a short warning post about the looong multi piece video.. It was really hard to get out so I broke it up into minute segments.. 😅😏😌😓😪😤🥺😒😌😉 Any who.. It’s good news though 😁☺️ I’m gonna try to start a school 😅🤷🏻‍♂️☺️.. #goodnews #longislandcity #kungfu #kungfupanda #wusu #wushu #new #school (at Long Island City) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM71tbblk-N/?igshid=wdapyd8ah0dn

Letter to master wong There are very few people I’d truly mourn if they were to pass away 😒... Death, unlike everything else in this life, is inevitable. My beliefs have so many justifications, explanations and general words of comfort to offer 😪.. In the end however, none of those justifications mean anything when someone who’s fed you when you were homeless is gone. None of those explanations for why they were taken suffice to quell the ache that wrenches within your heart. No words of comfort can negate the twisting pain that is summoned within your soul 😓😤😩😪😔😖🥺😢😭😫😥😑😶 Today, I found out Mr.Wong of Friendly Kitchen on 12th street, passed away a few days ago.. Outwardly, he was a very simple man. He never turned me away when I needed an ear as a child. His restaurant sustained my family for countless years when we couldn’t afford consistent meals. He even fed me plenty of times while I was on the street. You will be sorely missed Laoshi Wong, may your journey to the Everglades be solemn and may your heaven be full of riches 😌 ☯️⚛️🕉 杰 爱 顺 🙏🏼🙇🏻‍♂️🙏🏼🙇🏻‍♂️ 现 在 休 息 老 师 #rip #covid_19 #rest #well #laoshi #sifu #chef (at Friendly Restaurant) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM23htmlSLh/?igshid=1tk2jvx7om0s

The hierarchy within just about ANY craft tends to be pretty simple. Novice, Adept and then Master.. Within a generation there are those who strive for the rarely seen or thought of fourth tier... This fourth tier is an esteemed position forged through blood sweat and tears. It’s created within the soul, filtered through the mind and then expressed through our vessel. These individuals are commonly known as Artisans. Masters who have, after YEARS of study, hone their craft... My humility will not allow me to consider myself an artisan. That is for my peers to decide and comment on.. For now, just enjoy the good news.

People always wonder.. I rather not speak. The cost of an utterance is more than I can afford on an average day. That being so, immortalizing said words, has never felt costly. Hence why I’m a writer at my core 😌 (at Long Island City) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMzbZN2F0jf/?igshid=17b31cp0xcrh2

Intent is 3/5ths of most laws, right? Even though that’s the case, I know I’m somewhat intimidating as a person in damn near every respect of the word.. Yes, I AM a person of color and yes, I AM a martial artist who often carries his equipment in public. However, I’ve never so much as had a SINGLE ticket written up under my name for any sort of disorderly conduct. The leap of judgment/assumption that I mean ANYONE harm (by others) is what I’ve had to come to terms with. Given this countries history, it shouldn’t be a surprise to ANYONE that I’ve had to learn how to seem like less of a threat throughout the years.. I don’t want my future children, my students or ANY other person in this country to ever NEED to adapt to these conditions in the future. This is why I’m such a adamant advocate of social reform. We shouldn’t have to feel weary/threatened by those sworn to protect and serve us or ANY other wing of government. I hope you’re all staying safe and spreading positivity in these turbulent times. These sort of days are the kind in which positivity, compassion and empathy are needed the most. I trust that you are all working on being the deepest fountains of these virtues each and every day you still have a breath within you 😌 I’ll be at Queensbridge park from 3-5 if anyone wants a free intro class/fitness assessment before I head to the gym ☺️ ☯️☮️⚛️ . . . #mind #body #soul #trinity #divinity #martialarts #kungfu #wusu #wushu #dominicankungfumaster #traditional #meets #mma #nyc #queens #queensbridge #longislandcity #free #class #event #SiFuLi #AskASifu (at Queens Bridge Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMnM42wFKD8/?igshid=18iisx0hhsyuo

Hola how are you ? Hows mama?

Fine I guess.. Mom has a new injury and is back to not taking care of herself
