Things happen in life Missions Statement

Things happen in life. It’s inevitable. These things may not all be pleasant, but they make up who you are and they create a being in which no other person or thing can compare. You are you, no one can ever change that, nothing can ever change that. I surf. But it’s more than that. It’s not just me surfing, it’s everyone who’s influenced me. It’s every fall that’s taken me a level higher. There is a lot more driving me that you’d think. I have been through some awful, traumatic stuff, things that I thought would ruin me, take my dreams away from me. But, once you’ve lived through the things I’ve been through, the things I’ve seen, you tend to look at things from a different angle than before. Like how lucky you are to actually still be alive and how fortunate we are to get through obstacles and pass on our experiences to others. As long as you’ve got your eyes open and find something that you have faith in, nothing can touch you. It’s crazy how one experience can change your life forever. These experiences are every day. They are your days. Some times out in the water, in your travels, you run across angry people, people who you avoid as much as possible because they seem like a bad person, in your opinion. Well, there are no good guys, no bad guys. Just everyone doing the best they can. You’ve got to believe. And then there are times when you screw up real bad, and it sucks, but you learn from your mistakes and other people’s. No matter how smart you are, you can always learn. 281
