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...

So My Birthday Is Gonna Be So Miami....

So Yeah after months and months of prepping and preparing I'm gonna be celebrating my 30th Birthday in South Beach Miami.. Literally I'll be chilling in of the Miami's most famous hotels "The Colony" right off of Ocean Drive... I had trips planned to NYC, Vegas, and even a big ole bash thrown right here in Va but Opted out for something more exotic and tropical and hey you don't turn 30 everyday.. It's quite a milestone for me and I'm excited to be sharing this experience with a few close friends and like family... Not only will this be a Birthday celebration but a graduation celebration as well... I would have accomplished something by finishing school with a degree in Surgical Technology.. God is Greeeeeeeeeeeeeat!

Fantasia "Back to me".. my take on it all...

Okay so amid all the rumors, gossip, and alleged suicide attempt Fantasia delivers a great 3rd album that displays why she won American Idol many moons ago.. From start to finish Fanny takes you on a rollercoaster ride of her ups and downs all of what seems to be rules and lessons of finding what love is...

On tracks "I'm Doin Me", Bittersweet, and The Thrill Is Gone, She displays her Independence, riding the tracks as if she's had enough.. which bugs me as to why she wasn't playing this album during the whole "I just want out" fiasco...

Stand out tracks would have to "Man Of The House", Collard Greens and Cornbread, and Teach Me...

I'm not gonna judge her situation because under the right pressure all of us will crack. We are all human and fall short.. I will say fam isn't for everybody but if she's content on staying in the industry she's gonna have to develop thicker skin otherwise there won't be a next time.


Fantasia a very talented young woman and with her voice, stage presence, and overall personality can see out arenas over the world... She has time to evolve and grow.. Sometimes cutting off people you care about the most is key to elevate. I'm praying her dark days are behind her atleast getting played in the media..

I've been gone for a minute....

Wow the twist and turns of life are so funny sometimes...Even when we have a plan God is always steps ahead of us in what he has in store for our lives. We try to imagine the perfect life and what true happiness consist of. We map out our career goals, potential mates, and even the names of our children all before anything actually happens. This is our way of laying foundation to things not yet seen because we have a certain standard of rules we think our life needs. When in actuality those things are further from the truth.

From Sunday until Today I've been blessed to have God reveal so many wonderful things about myself, others, and the world itself and believe me when I tell you it's been nothing but positive revelations all throughout.


Everyone falls in love... yeah but that doesn't always mean we are destined to be with them forever... Live Life and have fun.. one mans or womans trash is another person's treasure...


Working one job in life is something our grandparents reveled in... times change and so do we... Life today is fast and changing and if we are to survive we need to change and move along with it.. Time waits for no one..


Love, Forgive, and move on.. nobody is enthused to be around a sour puss... Let go of things that harbor no positive vibes and prevent progression. Sometimes we blame others but we are own worst enemies...


Pray, eat healthy, and meditate.... Spend time loving yourself and have a balanced healthy life. Laugh more and read a book... Educate and feed your mind not your stomach... Allow God to speak to and not the other way around...


This is all my words.. nothing I copy and pasted but just things they were dancing inside my cerebellum..(yes being in a med school evolves your vocabulary and choice of words) lol

Guilty Pleasure: TruBlood

I can't get enough of this show.. Tru Blood is that new crack for my eyes. I didn't start getting into it until the last season after playing catch up and I instantly got hooked. The antics of Tara, Bill, and Snookie never cease to amaze me. This season looks to be heating up and the reveal of what "Snookie" really is? Whatever the case this show is interesting and the colorful cast make it that much worthwhile.. Everybody go get hooked on TRUBLOOD!
