The Revolving Door Of Life...

Nothing last forever.. even as a child the toys, video games, school crushes, and our favorite sneakers were merely pieces of rain eventually evaporating after finishing it's assignment in our lives.. Life is funny sometimes how things turn out almost changing overnight. My mother said a friend of hers only daughter died recently in a car accident. I couldn't imagine not being here for my mother or me dying 1st. There was a point where I  thought only children had it bad growing up without siblings but the most tragic feeling would be to lose your only child.

The revolving door of life has taught me what's here today is gone tomorrow. There was a point where I intended to hold onto everything that meant something to my life. When I gain I have a hard time letting go money, clothes, family, friends, etc... I now realize that with every season comes change and with change brings growth. When you refuse to let go you refuse to grow and therefore change becomes stagnant. In my short 29 years on earth I've lost and gained many things that meant something worthwhile to me and like a flash it disappeared. Now as I embark on a new era in my life the revolving door is spinning again and once again I must embrace change. New goals, New career opportunity's, New Friends, And New Territories to explore. I'm thankful for the Door's God is opening in my life because the Revolving Door Of Life is Changing and I must be ready to walk through it.

What's Really Good?

I'm not the most educated Christian but I have a strong spiritual belief and I owe God everything I have in my life but the darkness that lies in the background can't be ignored. All these headlines in the media involving Bishop Eddie Long are shocking, heart breaking, and hurtful. A Pastor's role in my opinion is a person who guides, leads the members of his congregation. He's the man who you go to for help, baptizes your family, marries, speaks great things at funerals and above all preaches the great teachings of the Holy Bible. However I have a problem with someone who misuses those teachings and uses them as tool to take advantage of people. I'm no one to judge and I'm not completely understanding of what all transpired or happened but if I had a young sister or brother who were taking up such behavior with a preacher or anybody older and of age I'd be upset, mad and ready to do something that would be totally out of my nature. I pray that those allegations are false and perhaps they are looking to gain some sort of settlement from this. Either way I hope this opens up people eyes that everyone is human and are inclined to make mistakes. However when in a great position of power, money, and following be mindful of what you do and how you go about doing it... whatever is done in the dark shall come to light especially when you are affecting the minds of people who may praise and look up to you...

The Path To My Dreams Begins...

So tomorrow begins my 1st day of externship at one of my local hospitals and to say I'm not nervous would be a complete lie! lol One reason I'm not worried is that I don't believe God has brought me this far to leave me and I'm thankful for all of his blessings. I know I'll make mistakes, rub people the wrong way (not on purpose), but through trail and error I plan to make a big impact. Not working in a year because of being laid off and going back to school has pivoted me to realize the importance of a job but more so a career. I just pray that at the end of November I can land a job and further my career goals in the medical field. I wanna thank my entire support system, God, family, friends, and everyone else who prayed, encouraged, and help me get to the point I'm at now.

Album Review: Trey Songz: Pain, Passion, and Pleasure..


I will admit when I first heard most of the leaked version of Trey Songz album Pain, Passion, and Pleasure I thought maybe he was in over his head with releasing a new album so close to "Ready". In a effort to support homegrown talent, Trey actually surprised me as he guided me on a roller coaster of love, sex, heartbreak. A lot of times dudes have a hard time expressing themselves so I'm thankful for artist who doesn't have a problem talking about these issues, hell even LL Cool J expressed how he needed love. While most of the songs on Ready were straight bangers and slow grinding joints for the club, his new album is a slowed down version of his past efforts giving you a more personal side of Trey Songz.

I'm happy his kept his features to a minimum save for Drake and Nicki Minaj who the latter provides energy to what would have been a suck ass track on "Bottom's Up" which in most peoples opinion's should have been her song.. either way you have a win win situation and the song really is heating up in the streets and radio. My stand out favorites:

Can't Be Friends
Made To Be Together
Unfortunate
Bottom's Up

Whatever the case Pain, Passion, and Pleasure is in stores today so go out and suppport dude...

"I Wonder"....YE




This song has always been a great motivational tool for me when it comes to accomplishing my goals...



I've been waiting on this my whole life/
these dreams be waking me up at night/
you say I think I'm never wrong/
you know what, maybe you're right, aite
And you know what I do come as thinking I'm right.. I'm just confident and appreciative of the things that God has orchestrated for my life. Shoot me if you can dream but I can't..  Shoot me if you wanna fall in love but I can't  Shoot me if you can get a job but I can't.. I was reading "A Raisin In The Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry and the character Walter Lee Younger was a provider who had dreams, even if they were far fetched and unattainable. He came off as grandiose at times but he loved his family and wanted nothing but the best. To live and breath the American Dream... BLanco.
