Be honest with yourself

Be honest with yourself. I wasn't honest with myself when I was growing up. What I'm about to say is hard for me but I have to get this off my chest. I was contemplating suicide when I was growing up. The dark place that I was talking about in my film was the suicide thoughts. I decided to not commit suicide because I was thinking of how many people love me and if I do it, they would be terribly sadden. I told my mom and my doctor when I was younger. I actually told my dad today and it was a great conservation. I didn't tell my dad when I was younger because I didn't know how he would've reacted. I'm really good now because I have loving family and friends that want me to succeed. In this present moment I'm glad that I'm alive because I found God in the midst everything that happened to me. I was watching an interview and this rapper named Alex Riley was talking about his rap career. He said "even though I rap playfully, my fans come up to me after

Baby steps

Every time I see a beautiful girl, I always fall in love instantly. This is tricky because some girls have a beautiful face but has an ugly soul or an ugly personality. On the other hand, there is some beautiful girls who have beautiful souls or have beautiful personalities. I learned this the hard way in the past but whether they have ugly or beautiful personalities, we have to love each other. We have to love each other because loving will open your eyes to many other positive things but most importantly, Love is what God wants us to do. I always rush girls when I want them be my girlfriend. For example, I always tell a girl that I like them within a few days and I didn't get to know them that well and obviously it doesn't work out. I always did and I always do this but since I know this, I will get better at this. I won't let this be my weakness anymore, I'm going to make this my strength.  A lot of times I ask myself, "when will I ever learn" but everythin

Open your heart

Open up your heart everyday regardless of what other people think of you. The only person that can judge you is God. You should be concerned with that but you also should be concerned with the action and words that you are speaking to that individual. You should want to benefit that other individual regardless if she or he gets mad. The willingness to open up your heart means that you are acceptable to love others, to forgive others and to help others in need. Opening up your heart can be risky because that individual that you are speaking to might not accept what you have to say even though it might be genuine and sincere. That individual might not embrace the words that you said to her or him at that given time, but he or she will embrace those words eventually wholeheartedly. The great thing is that you opened up your heart and that's what most people don't do. Don't be afraid to open your heart because after you do it, it will release great feelings. When I was growing

Being Thankful

I always thank God for allowing me to wake up everyday. I thank him for the beautiful sky, the beautiful sun shining, the beautiful people walking around, and for the animals that he created. I know a lot of people believe in someone else and that is their preference but I'm telling you guys that I believe in God and nobody else. I know what he can do. I'm a witness to his doings and he's excellent to me and I try to be excellent to him as well. I don't only thank him for waking me up each and every morning but I also thank him for my five senses, my loving family, blood flowing through my veins and arteries and the many blessings he bestowed and will bestow in my life. Some people don't have these blessings in their life so that's why I'm so grateful everyday. I don't take these blessings for granted, well at least I don't try to.  I'm not here to force my religion on you guys but I am telling you guys to thank whoever you believe in or if you d

Stop Bullying

One of my biggest pet peeves is disrespectfulness. I get so furious when people treat others like garbage, saying mean things to each other. Cyberbullying and bullying should not be tolerated at all. I had to do a class presentation about cyberbullying. I found this app called Yik Yak which  is an anonymous twitter and can be directly associated with cyberbullying and bullying. Yik Yak was invented by Tyler Droll and Buffs Buffington. According to USA today, colleges in Vermont, Chicago and New Mexico banned Yik Yak due to the increased bullying around those campuses. Recently, I watched a  clip from The Steve Harvey Show and these parents were on the show. They have a daughter with a disorder that affects her chromosomes. Her mother posted a picture of her child on social media because it was her birthday; but the comments that people posted were disrespectful. Cyberbullying and bullying have the same negative effects on people so please refrain from bullying and anything associated

I hear You!!

I think one of the many reasons why God put me on this earth is to comfort individuals in their time of need as God does for us. I can be there for you when you don't have anybody to turn to. Of course, many people can and should turn to God with their problems but on this earth I truly believe I'm supposed to help others. Whether you are going through obstacles or having insecurities, I can help you R ise like an Eagle . God made us with uniqueness, creativity and individuality and he wants us to use these qualities the best of our abilities. If you want a shoulder to cry on, I'm here. If you want to talk, I'm here. If you want to lay around and hang around, that's ok too. I'm not talking about having sex because sex is really delaying the process of getting true help. Be there for others who really need your help. Spread Positivity and Love everyday.

Express your emotions/yourself freely

Express yourself as freely as you want to. People will judge you but who cares about their opinions of you. For example, when I wrote that message to the girl that I was telling you guys earlier in the older post, I'm glad that I did this action because I expressed my emotions freely as I knew how to. People talk and they will be talking until they are dead and gone but no matter what they say, Be You. God has made us unique and he placed a gift inside of each and everyone of us so it's no reason for us to shy away from being ourselves. God is the only one who can judge us based on our actions. In other words Do You.

Love hard or don't love at all

The keyword is Love.  This relates to my other post associated with agape love. I would rather have love in my heart and my mind than hate because when you hate; that is associated with negativity and eventually you will spread that negativity and hate among others. We all should love regardless if you have bitterness with other individual(s) or the world. The Bible says "Love Thy Neighbor" and I try to live that message everyday by spreading genuine love and kindness to everybody that I encounter. Take baby steps during this process because I know it's very hard to Love Thy Neighbor but we all need to apply this to our daily lives.

Be there for others!!

We all should practice the method of unconditional love. Unconditional love can be referred to as agape love. Agape love is a kind of love that you love individual(s) that you will do anything for them without expecting anything in return. I think when everybody in the entire world embrace this concept, there would be world peace and no violence. When somebody wants our help we should help them, not only in the instance of helping the homeless but in many other ways too. If somebody is feeling insecure or down on their luck, we should pick them up from their depression. Hold, lay, talk or cuddle with that individual to make them feel better. I don't mean have physical relationships because that doesn't help the case unless it's passionate. They might take weeks, months or even years to get over their insecurities or downfalls. Regardless if they want your help or not, help them anyway. They might not appreciate your help now but they will appreciate it in the long run. I th

Positivity all around

We have to become positive individuals. We have to breed positivity in our veins. If we don't have positivity in our lives, negativity will consume our lives. I don't know about you guys but I like to be a positive individual everyday. I pray to God everyday that he instills inner peace within myself and through him each day. Having positivity and peace in your heart and mind  will make your life easier no matter what is going on in your life. When I was in high school, I remembered saying to my friend, " Why would any want want to be negative. How can you live your life mad at the world?" No matter what's going on in your life, there is always a solution to all of the madness. Also, you shouldn't be so angry that you take it out on other people. If people are angry, they should take proper steps to remove that anger from their hearts and minds. Spread love and peace everywhere you go. Spread love and peace to everybody that you encounter because we all should
