for his reflective genius of knowing exactly what to say so that I might understand what I've put aside as lost. &nbspalso for always being there, tolerating my confusion, and constantly trying to introduce new sounds into a tired song.</div> <BR> <div><U>Judith</U> - the angel of the house, for showing me the meaning of positive thinking, the gift of the mundane in the swirling, chaotic mess of &quothigher thinking,&quotand for having a place for me in her home and life. &ampnbspI'll never be able to repay the kindness.</div> <BR> <div><U>Loi</U> - for being you! &nbspsome bunny loves you. &ampnbsp^^</div> <BR> <div><U>Sensei J</U> - for being the living example of discipline, focused concentration, and patience; for his quiet dignity and strength, his clear head, and his companionship.</div> <BR> <div><U>Tommy</U> - for his positive influence (by virtue of his eclectic taste in the arts), and for being a good brother.</div> <BR> <div><U>Ghio</U> - for his valuable lessons on the shadow aspect, for putting up with my bs, for the good times and the bad, and for his generosity despite strife.</div> <BR> <div><U>Orion</U> - for threatening to beat down anyone who steps on my back (his support) and his friendship.</div> <BR> <div><U>Messi</U> - (who also taught the &ampquotshadow&quotclass) for showing the pitfalls of intensity without dedication, for being one of the few who heard me when I had no voice, and for all the righteous beats.</div> <BR> <div><U>Gil</U> - for sharing the joys and occupational hazards of being god.</div> <BR> <div><U>Mom</U> - for all the love and hard work.</div> <BR> <div><U>Dad</U> - for being a spiritual example and for having such tremendous spirit.</div> <BR> <div><U>Triston Gheovani Orion</U> - for teaching me what love is, <B>you are the apple of my eye.</B></div> <BR> <div>There are others. &nbspTo anyone who's ever been a part of my life, thank you...!</div> <BR> <div>&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp &ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp&ampnbsp</div> <BR> <div><B>Updates:</B> </div><div>&ampnbsp6/10/03 -
