The Code of the Kyng

1. Do not love yourself, respect yourself.
2. Respect the land. Take care of what takes care of you.
3. Have faith in any higher power; allowing you to stay humble, and have something worth both living and dying for.
4. Never judge another without taking a long, deep look at yourself first.
5. Educate yourself fully through experience, not by word of mouth. Words are the least reliable purveyor of truth.
6. Be straight forward & respectfully confrontational.
7. Live in the now. You can't change yesterday and you don't know tomorrow.
8. To find yourself...Think for yourself.
9. Never be afraid to tread the path alone...Do not feel you have to follow in someone else's footsteps.
10. Take your time, don't live too fast - Troubles will come but they will pass.
11. Be open to your happiness and sadness as they arise.
12. Live and work but do not forget to play, to have fun in life and really enjoy it.
13. However many holy words you read or speak, what good will they do you if you do not act upon them?
14. A soul without a high aim is like a ship without a rudder.
15. The more you depend on forces outside yourself, the more you're dominated by them.
16. For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who do not, no proof is possible.
17. Change is never a loss. It is change only.
18. Success is a journey not a destination. Half the fun is getting there.
19. Learn to be silent. Let your quiet mind listen and absorb.
20. Perfect kindness acts without thinking of kindness.
21. If you shut your door to errors, truth will be shut out.
22. If one desires a change, one must be that change before that change can take place.
23. The fastest way to freedom is to feel your feelings.
24. The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white, neither should you be anything but yourself.
25. Regrets can hold you back & prevent the most wonderful things taking place in your lives right now.
26. I know I'm not seeing things as they are, I'm seeing things as I am.
27. The only difference between a flower and a weed is a judgment.
28. Every end is a new beginning.
29. Love is a space in which all other emotions can be experienced and expressed.
30. Stop trying to work everything out with your minds. It will get you nowhere. Live by intuition and inspiration and let your whole life be a revelation.

(Editor's note: I try so hard to live by these quotes and these ways of life. Sometimes I forget some of them, like I did with my cousin in a previous post; but there's always someone there to call me out on them, even when they don't even know these quotes...And that's part of the importance and significance of these quotes. They're so powerful that people who don't even know them, will still call me out on them. That's how POWERFUL these laws can be. And, when I was called out by my brother Christian, whom talked to my cousin, he did the same to him...We're family and Chris is just trying to keep his younger kin on top of their game...Which by the way, he used #4, #21 & #26 on me. And, should my cousin ever see this post, or see these laws someplace...I hope that  he'll understand that all I intended to truthfully say to him was what #22 says...And, I'll say it here in front of everyone, I love you Cuz and I never meant any disrespect or harm to you.)
