Words of encouragement for myself and others

 As of late I've been on a roller coaster (metaphor of how unbalance life can be) and this time, the ride I was on, seemed like it was in constant motion, and I was never going to get off. I'm not going into detail but when I was on the roller coaster, I prayed and kept praying and it was no life raft to rescue me anytime in the near future, that's what it seemed like to me anyways. Luckily, I'm off that roller coaster and a life raft came thru and, in this scenario, the life raft is God.   Life is complicated and unbalanced sometimes but if you stay positive, stay or TRY to stay away from negativity, have FAITH and be the best version of yourself and work hard, you can be prosperous in many forms, this what I truly believe!

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 enjo...

Just Do It

This past Saturday, I went to a local bar called the Winchester on the west side of Cleveland. My boss is in a band and the band was playing that night. I like to support people even if that art form is new to me . Me seeing the band was exciting, also it was another big happening that night. I asked if the bartender if she had a boyfriend and unfortunately, she said yes. If she said no, I would have been jumping for joy and after jumping for joy, I would 've then asked her if she wanted to go out on a date and then we skip down the yellow brick road oh so lovely. I was hella sad and what even made me more sad was when she turned on some sad country music. I told myself let me get my ass out of here (LOL). I had a lot of drinks that night because I was celebrating my boss's band performing live for the first time since the stone ages (lol), but for a very long time. Anyways, I had hella drinks that night but thank God I mellowed out by the time I asked her. Imagine if I was ...

Appreciate the little so you can appreciate the BIG

 During the span of the election, I was canvassing. If people don't know what canvassing is , it's just knocking on people's doors and for this particular canvassing it was for the past election. But in the midst of the canvassing, I got four dollars more on my paycheck than the previous paycheck and I was grateful. Other people might say it's just four dollars, but my employer didn't have to do that. That gesture was little but I was very grateful for that increase, how big or small it was. I would say I was always a grateful Indvidual but now since I'm older and gained a bit more wiser, I would say that I cherish the things that make me whole that aren't always monetary.     Also, I got a bonus of twenty five dollars after the job was over. I was jokingly asking for a bonus; I didn't expect to receive a bonus. This made me think of another thought and the thought is being humble. You never know what being humble and appreciative will get you. I'm n...
