The Four Letter Word- L.O.V.E (part 2)

You guys know what my first weakness is but I'm going to tell you guys what my second weakness is. My second weakness is looking at young ladies for a long period of time, more than a glance I would say. I have a valid reason though and that reason is that I see potential in these young ladies. For example, in college I was looking at this young lady and I was telling myself she could become a doctor if she wanted to if she put her mind into it. I honestly don't know what professions the young ladies are interested in but they can do anything they want to do if they put their minds to work. A lot of young ladies that I looked at in college and in the present have the potential to accomplish great things but these young ladies that I'm talking about don't value themselves like they should in my opinion. I'm talking about them valuing themselves in the most respected sense, not having sex with assholes but use their heads as vessels to create beautiful projects, make

Detachments

I was talking to a young man about various things on Friday night at Nano Brew located on the west side of Cleveland. I liked the atmosphere at this bar, it felt a like a fun but safe environment. Anyways, one topic that we talked about was growing up and getting out of your parents care. Detachments are necessary and vital in order for us to grow and prosper into the real world. When I went to England with People to People Student Ambassadors I was home sick for one day. I had a chance to call home and that was nice but my point is that I was detached from my parents for almost two weeks. Since I travelled to England by myself, I think I became stronger in the sense that I was independent then and I can be even more independent when I move out to strike out on my own. I went to Israel and India also but when I went to England it seemed I was more detached than the two other countries I visited. It's a point in a young man's/young woman's life that they have to strike out o

The Pepsi Commerical

Even though the Pepsi commercial starring Kendall Jenner was taken down I still loved the message. In my opinion, Pepsi shouldn't of even took it down because I viewed the commercial as uplifting and united as one nation. We needed that commercial to remind people that change is possible in- spite of the current situations in the United States and around the world.  There is a definite possibility of change but if we don't change how we view people and view ourselves, there is No change going to happen between the nations and its people anytime soon. The United States and nations around the world are beautiful but there is so much corruption behind the scenes, beautiful but corrupted, that's what I always say. The commercial is a controversial topic and this is a good thing because people are talking about it. Controversial topics are good if the topics that are getting covered shines light on dark situations.

Ultimate, Ultimate Purposes

Ever since I could remember I felt like I had a gift. I know I have gifts from God but I always felt like I had an ultimate gift given to me from Him. Lately, this gift seems stronger and stronger. The gift is super hearing. I'm not talking about a super hero that has super hearing either. I can hear voices around the world, the good and the bad opinions about people. I can't be like God, nobody can but I feel like I'm God's right hand man, after Jesus of course!! It seems like He put me on this earth for an ultimate, ultimate purpose. I feel like this is such a special gift that it needs to be talked about. Does anyone else feel like this or have a similar gift that God or any spiritual being gave you? Regardless if you guys have these experiences, you guys should find that ultimate, ultimate purpose for your life and don't let it go!!

You Are Truly One Of A Kind

I saw this movie called Greater ( a true story)   a couple weeks ago starring Neil McDonough and Christopher Severio. This movie is about a kid who wants to play for the Arkansas Razorbacks and didn't accept no for an answer when people told him he wasn't going to make the team. He eventually played for them and made it into the NFL playing for the Indianapolis Colts. He died in a non related football accident though. I could relate to the main character because I was picked on and I really stayed to myself . I didn't interact much. But he overcame those fears of being scared and took a leap of faith. He wanted to make it on the Razorbacks team that much he Never Gave Up on pursuing his dream and that dream led him into the NFL. His mother in the movie played by Leslie Easterbrook instilled in him the faith element  and then he Believed anything is possible. He just wanted to play football and he just did that, short lived but he did what he enjoyed. Do what you enjoy and d
