“I’ll be 60 next year. And I’m not here to impress anyone. I’ve been the champion. I’ve been the villain. I’ve had gold around my waist and nothing in my soul. Now? I just want peace. Everything else is noise.”
I grew up where love was tough and fists were currency.
I didn’t learn kindness — I learned survival.
By 13, I was arrested 38 times.
By 20, I was the youngest heavyweight champion in history.
They called me “Iron Mike” — like I wasn’t supposed to bleed.
I had money, fame, mansions, tigers, private jets…
But I couldn’t sleep. I couldn’t breathe.
The world saw knockouts.
I saw ghosts.
At 40, I started asking better questions.
Not “how do I win?”
But “why was I always fighting in the first place?”
And the truth?
I wasn’t fighting the other guy.
I was fighting myself. My fear. My father’s silence. My mother’s pain. My own shame.
Now, at 60, I’m not chasing anything.
I grow mushrooms.
I hug my pigeons.
I walk barefoot on grass and cry sometimes for no reason at all.
I talk more about forgiveness than uppercuts.
I don’t need the belt. I don’t need the roar of a crowd.
I just want to eat good fruit, tell the truth, and die knowing I broke the cycle.
If you want to know what greatness is — it’s not dominance. It’s healing.
It’s walking away from the thing that used to destroy you — and choosing not to destroy others with it.
The scariest man in the world?
He became a gardener.
And maybe… that’s the real victory.
Everything is real,
— Mike Tyson
A woman from New York was driving through a remote part of Arizona when her car broke down. An American Indian ob horseback came along and offered her a ride to a nearby town.
Sheclimbed up behind him on the horse and they rode off. The ride was uneventful, except that every few minutes the Indian would let out a"YEEHAW!" so loud that it echoed from the surrounding hills and canyon walls. When they arrived in town, he let off at the local service station, yelled one final " YEEHAW!" and rode off. The service station attendant asked thewoman, "What did you do to get that Indian so excited?" The woman replied, "Nothing", I merely sat behind him on the horse, put my arms around his waist, and held onto the saddle horn so I wouldn't fall off". The attendant replied, " Lady, Indians don't use saddles."

The teacher of the earth science class was lecturing on map reading. After explaining about latitude, longitude, degrees, and minutes, the teacher asked, “Suppose I asked you to meet me for lunch at 23 degrees, four minutes north latitude and 45 degrees, 15 minutes east longitude?”
After a confused silence, a voice volunteered, “I guess you’d be eating alone!”
Chintu: “You never study, so how come you don’t fail your mathematics test?”
Pintu: “Because whenever there is a mathematics test, I don’t go to school!”
Teacher: “What is the largest city?”
Student: “Electricity!”
