I have done much thinking and meditating and I feel that I need to take some time off from training for a week or so. I hope you all may understand and Bael I havent heard from you in a while but I will return in a week or so. I just need some time to do alot of looking at myself and what is best for me and what I will do with my life. Please do not take this as me leaving or anything, I just need to asset my life and just figure some things out.
Thank you and MTFBWY

There is nothing to worry about on this score kenni, we all need and indeed take, breaks away from this temple from time to time. Many reasons, real world issues such as family, health whatever.
It is in someways a good thing and can in a way be deemed as part of ones training. Ones master helps one learn, but at the end of the day, the only person who is truly teaching you is yourself, your master is there to help you look in the right directions
This 'break' is an ideal time to reflect on many things and to clarify 'foggy' areas for yourself. Take your time, and dont get too bothered about difficult things, if you really cant think of an answer for yourself, then you know where to come for help should you need it, or even to simply talk, the ld saying of a problem shared is a problem halved is actually quite true in many ways.
Take care, and MTFBWY - A / MTFSYW

I believe the aborigines called it a \"walk about\".
They went on walk abouts to find themselves and answers from their ancesters.
I wish you the best on your walk about.

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

With what has happened to me personally in the past few days, I understand that there are times that will try us to our limits of patience, understanding, and faith. Everyone needs time to clear their heads and to find their path again. \"Time heals all.\" I look forward to the day that you return and take your time we will still be here.

Well I was going to take more time off but I had realized what kind of person that I am if I lived a more \"normal\" way of life. I know many things even for a person of my age, and I have experienced much as well. I realize now that if I were to step down from this way of life that it would lead to many problems. I am not one to go to college and learn a trade or have a regular 9-5 job. I learned much of survival through the streets. I know that if I gave this all up, I would be doomed. I would move back home to New York or perhaps Jersey. I would take the \"construction\" job from one of my relatives who shall remain anonymous. I would go back to that way of life of lies, money, greed, and danger. I know that I would be successful and have lots of money, a nice car, a nice home, tons of stuff for the home and nice clothes. Most of my friends are either dead or in jail and I dont want that to happen to me. So this is my return to the site and I'm picking my training back up. so yeah...Meesa come back okeeday...I'm sorry, I can assure you that will never happen again lol

I keep asking Master Jon to add the banning of JarJar to cannon law, punishable by force lightning, but for some reason, it isnt happening 
Good to see youve cleared your own mind and made your path choices, as life goes on, you will find yourself at many such crossroads, occasionally, life sends a freight train down your path and you wont really get a choice, but these are what Jo Campbell refers too as 'Major Life Events' and he says we all have 4 or 5 of them in a lifetime.
Remember the old saying, what doesn't kill you, you learn from
We all need such 'time-outs' be it days, weeks or even longer, but don't be too proud to take the time away to review or reflect on your own life, it is exactly that ... YOUR life and we may only get one shot at it so don't waste it.
