Male nudity, full-frontal nudity, has always been considered a lot more taboo than female nudity. As far back as I can remember, there’s been a double standard between men and women. I think it’s time that men get equal time in terms of nudity.
Growth is the great separator between those who succeed and those who do not. When I see a person beginning to separate themselves from the pack, it’s almost always due to personal growth.
Did you know there’s a difference between being busy and being fruitful? Did you ever stop to think that just being busy – running around in circles all day but not accomplishing anything – is the same as wasting your time? It’s frustrating to expend so much energy and time and not have any fruit from your effort!

Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable.

The main difference between a cat and a lie is that a cat only has nine lives.
