So much stuff to write about! It's 1:34AM I expect to be up to about 2AM probably just writing, texting, tweeting, facebooking, AIM, it's gross how technology dependant I've become but oh well. I'm excited for things to come in 2011, I'm saying it now and saying it with confidence it's gonna be a real big year! So I'm going to try and go as far back as possible back to Colombia. As you guys know I was on trial with Junior (de Barranquilla) with the reserves of the first team. And it went well I am officially going back on Jan 2nd and having a second trial. I can not thank God enough, and I'm pretty sure some of my actions since my return to Miami haven't been that great, I've asked for forgiveness and made a change. I went out one last night and haven't gone out since. I told God I'm gonna dedicate myself to the things that need to be taken care of, and stick to them. So I haven't been going out despite the fact that I'm itching to! It sucks I got accustomed to that lifestyle, but lifestyle changes have to be made. I swear my mom tells me the coolest quotes you guys already know the one I excessively talk about, but this one was cool she said "Danny if you want to make your dream come true you need the three D's. Discipline, Determination, and Desire. LOVE THIS. My mom is dope. #thumbs up! Yeah I use hashtags now, cause I'm a twitter guy. Follow me @DannyPlaySoccer.
So I tried looking for my goals of 2010 but I couldn't find them :/ anyways I don't think I was relatively to successful but this year has come and gone, and am now looking forward to a real big 2011. Many are wondering what's going to happen with Traffic and I as a lot of people know on Dec 31st there was an option that had to be excersized in whether to move forward and renew a 2 year contract or to go our seperate ways. I think both parties would agree it was best to go our seperate ways, and so we did. All the legal paperwork hasn't been done yet, but it should be processed soon. So this basically means I'm a free agent and own the rights to my soccer pass :). Hopefully everything goes Gods way and His will and I sign in Colombia. Just gotta have faith and trust in God.
Christmas was awesome I mean I didn't really get anything extraordinary, but it's cause I'm blessed with everything I want already, but it was a lot of fun spoiling my mom, dad, and brothers with gifts. Always remember it's better to give then to get. I know society tries to f--k up your mentality with greed but don't be fooled. It's always good to give, when your in a position that enables you too.
People continue to fall in and out of my life, but for some reason I stand unaffected by it, something I really love to do though, is meet new people. I don't know why I love having conversations with different people, and learning about them. Sometimes at least.
My dads job the family business has really excelled this year. My brother began working there part time, I work there along with my mom voluntarily (my mom has her own job). The company has grown an incredible 24% and that just goes to show you that with God all things are possible! Never let any hater tell you otherwise. That's one thing I really can't stand a hater, they're just so negative, and annoying. But whatever my dads business has really excelled and all the glory goes to the man upstairs thank you God for your work over my life, and my families life. My dads job is a freight forwarding company so if you need anything at all shipped from here to Colombia we got you with the best prices and service. Allcourier.com . Yeah that was my promotional bit! :)
I want to give a special thanks to my boys, I know I chill with a lot of different people, but like I said I like vibing with different people, but for sure these guys who come out and party with me, and have been my boys like family since 6th grade yall know who you are no need to name you guys, but man you guys are true friends love yall and wish you guys nothing but the best in all your endeavors brothers! 3
Uhmm so it's technically the 29th, and I leave the 2nd, crazy! Today the 29th is going to be filled with hopefully a breakfast date :) working at the family bizz, working out, eye doctor, some errands, and than a dinner date with mi amigaaaaa with great food involved! the 30th is going to be a free day to do things for me, but at night I'm gonna be with my friend having a quiet evening and hopefully catching a movie that I've been wanting to watch I forgot the name but I know when I see the name it'll come back to me. The 31st/1st with my family and enjoying there company while with them and the 2nd I'm outta hurrrrrrr.
Excitedexcitedexcitedexcited for 2011!! I know big things are coming, dream BIG, cause you have a BIG God. No point in dreaming a mediocre dream! Thank you all of you that have helped me, or betrayed me, loved me, or hated me, I've gotten to meet, or have stepped out, cause it is you people who have molded me into the person that is stepping into 2011. I've grown through so many mistakes this year. God all I want to do now is receive your shower of blessings, and return to you all the Glory, I don't seek no crown, no fame, no glory, I give it to you as you are the reason for my success and the one who deserves it all not me God. Thank you all for reading sorry if I bored you with a long post, that wasn't quite interesting on my points and views, but just more about me and what's to come! Have a blessed day/night and never forget to walk around with a smile on your face :)
God Bless!

One week later.
One week. All it took for me to push peoples buttons, and almost manage to tarnish a marriage. Crazy right? If anything you'd think I'm fuc-ing with someones wife or something, but na it's my own family. Monday night I got back from NYC I made a stupid selfish decision, Thursday I managed to do it again & to than Saturday was the icing on the cake. I disrespected, & nearly tore a family apart. I'm really that selfish of a person? Do I really think about myself and not others? I won't get that into detail but I mean I was born and raised with proper principles, proper morals, and pretty much a spoiled life. Why the hell can't I give back everyday to those who give me everyday. Who break there OWN backs for ME. Why must I attempt to please everyone and live a life that's not true. I was hit with some pretty hard words today, words that make u scared, words that make u feel pain, and not one mans pain, but 5 peoples pain, a families pain.
My friends who really do keep up with my blog know how I am. I'm never one to be shy about myself, and whether I had great success or great failure I will write about it. I'm not one of those people who only talk or show my face when I succeed only, I tell my story whether it's good, or bad. Cause I know it's something people can relate to. If I would only write when things were going good, everybody would think I have the perfect life. But that's not the case, the truth is I have been through a lot and will continue too, this just helps me vent and I hope it may also serve as a motivational tool one day for some people or maybe an inspiration, whatever. That being the case I'm making changes. I'm not really sure how many times I've said this or if I've even said it, but I really am. For now don't worry what exactly I'm going to do, cause quite frankly I'm not 100% sure yet what I am going to do, but definitely making changes and going to move forward with them for my own good. Is that me being selfish again? I hope not I'm just trying to change my life for the better. And not only for the better for me, but for those I care about most. Todays words from my dad also made me realize how true is the fact that my friends are counted probably on my fingers.
I also wanted to mention how incredibly stupid I've been over the past 18 months with my soccer career. I know what I want in life but at the same time I want to live a lifestyle that has it all when I don't. Not even close. If I truthfully would've gave soccer my all and tried right now I should be making a lot of more money, be a lot more successful. Instead I'm struggling, grinding, hustling. See in the past 18 months, I've taken soccer for granted and probably as of last month I took it serious again, and was really working at it, until I came back to Miami and people put me back into a lifestyle I love but isn't healthy and will end real quick for me unless I get on my sh-t. So I hope I'm able to salvage my soccer career after an 18 month money blowing, hurt my own body, ignorant, arrogant lifestyle. I've lost people, I've lost friends, I've gained friends, met great people, seeing lives changes, seeing lives taken, time to take my fuc-ing life into my hands and fight for what I want. Most importantly return to a lifestyle that's pleasing to God. Not a lifestyle that pleases me or you, cause why should I give a fu-k about making myself or you happy, when God gave me everything, he's kept me alive, he's kept me going, he continues to bless me. Heeee deserves my life, so I now try to make changes for the better to put a smile on my Gods face. If you down with my life, fu-k with me then, if you not ride out. I slipped, I don't do that often but glad my parents caught me slipping before someone else did. Cause my family gave me a second chance, you may not understand why I'm going so deep, but it's cause some sh-t isn't mentioned on here, but just know that I'm changing, so if ya see me and tell me I changed I hope you can say it's for the better, unless your a promoter and I'm not fuc-ing throwing hundreds in your pocket for something I can cap for $25 at the corner store. I'm not down to waste another 40k over the next 18 months. I don't got money like that, I don't want to live a life like that, I'm done. So enjoy what I gave you world, enjoy it good, cause I'm changing going back to God now, it's not easy I'm a prideful ni--a but I know God awaits for me with arms open. I just hope this time when he closes his arms around me, I don't let go again or push him away. God told me......I need gratitude maybe just a sample, cause he never gave me anything that I really couldn't handle..
God Bless..

But anyways although I'm not much of a planner I usually just have goals and ideas and try to make them happen as time passes, I actually have some planned stuff ahead!
