Where's the Love?

 As I see and hear all of the current events in the news, I just ask myself where's the love? This world is a beautiful place, but human beings find ways to fuck it up in negative ways. From domestic disputes to international disputes, it's all hate interactions, not love interactions. Well, I'm pretty sure there are SOME love interactions domestically and internationally but I'm using the word SOME loosely. The two international current events are the Israeli and the Russian war. I don't know a lot about the wars so I'm not going into detail about them, but I am going to still express my opinions. 

    Firstly, the Israeli war have been going on for centuries but as of late, Palestine have been at war with the holy country. There are pro-Palestine protests on college campuses around the country and if you want to know why, just turn on your local news outlet. People say that they aren't worried about what's going on overseas while kids are dying constantly in the United States and I may understand that, but I DEFINITELY understand that WE must empathize for both international and domestic relations especially in regards of innocent bloodshed because that's what human beings are supposed to do. Also, in regards of the protests around college campuses, those kids are protesting because a lot of those kids are from Palestine, or they are descendants of Palestinian blood. 

    Secondly, the Russia and Ukraine war is a comparison with Goliath and David. Goliath is the big bully like Russia and Ukraine is David, trying to fight for himself or in regards of this situation, fighting for the homeland which is Ukraine. The battle is still going on though. There is a lot of violence in this world today and my question is where is the love at? One of my earlier posts I told you guys I went to the Wailing Wall in Israel, and I put a note in the wall that says heal the world and the belief is that God will listen and read and bless the notes. I truly believe that God will heal the world in His time, not our timing. I saw Monkey Man starring Dev Patel (great movie, executive produced by Jordan Peele, Dev Patel never disappoints). It's a great quote in the movie that states I learned you need to destroy in order to grow and I think this quote is perfect regarding this situation. Maybe God wants to watch how barbaric WE are to one another and then He can restore the planet, that is my take. Make/have love, not spread/create hate!!!

Life

Life is what you make it. I get down and out because of some situations in life but I know God has me and I will be victorious in all things. I also love inspiration. I love people who inspire me and I love to inspire other people. When this inspiration happens, it's a non stop cycle of inspiring and I love it so much. My former college I went to, Mercyhurst University slogan is carpe diem which means seize the day. Seizing the day is so essential if we want to fulfill an accomplish or meet a goal. Connecting and networking with people is also so essential in life because these networks will hopefully develop into long lasting friendships and partnerships. Last night I watched this film entitled Demolition and it was a very good film. The main character, Jake Gyllenhaal found a boy that eventually became his best friend. Life is very precious, take it day by day and you never know who you are going to meet along your journey.

Work hard and have faith

Image
I Last month my mother just sent my diploma to me via text.  I know this is a cliché but I had to endure blood, sweat and tears. Maybe not blood but you guys should understand the point I'm trying to make. I really worked hard for this piece of paper and I didn't do it by myself. God bestowed mercy and favor upon me during the two years I was there (I spent two years at a junior college, Mercyhurst University North East). I prayed to God each and every day to let me be diligent in my studies and let me graduate. God still is with me and He won't ever forsake me.!! I'm proud to mention God because He always comes through for me. I will continue to have God in my heart and on the tip of my tongue. I told you guys that I prayed but I also had faith and worked very hard. Having faith is so essential in these situations because you can't see faith, you just have to believe that God is going to work your situation out. Most times, He does but you have to be patient.

Drake ft Popcaan- Please Forgive Me

When I watched this short film by Drake, I was highly impressed. If you haven't viewed the film, I have the link below. There are three parts of the film that I want to discuss with you guys. The first part I want to discuss with you guys is when Drake was at the diner and drinking coffee by himself thinking about life. This part  correlates to the part when he got into a car after a show in the beginning and he looked like he wasn't satisfied. I feel like he wants something more, other than money and fame. So I guess the definition of a "celebrity" is not what it seems. The saying is true then, that money can't buy you happiness. The next part is when he had those visions of those people disappearing and when the lady was crying. When people were disappearing that might've been  people in his life that died in the past or Drake had to cut them out of his life for good. For that lady who was crying, maybe that was a sign that everybody g...
