God protect me..
Checking in
How are you guys doing?
I’m taking it day by day, I’m not looking too far into the future like I’ve done before.
My main objective is to win the day, that’s it.
I will remain positive as always!
I’m an essential worker and for the first time I think people really appreciate us, I just hate it took a pandemic to do so.
I try to never complain, I’m always looking for the solution.
For now my solution is self care, I’m focusing on becoming a better version of myself.
Please practice social distancing, wear a mask when out in public, and wash your hands.
I love you guys, be safe!
God is not…
Lean into…
Lean into uncertainty, embrace the unknown. The only thing that is certain is the past, the only thing we know of is the things that already happened.
An awakening
It truly feels like we are in a movie right now but we can’t panic, we must remain calm. From time to time I like to bring sports analogies into my conversations to drive my point home, so bare with me. In the mid 80s I played 8th grade basketball with one of South Carolina’s greatest basketball player’s, Gerald Daise(google him), he was a phenomenal human being as well. To start, football season always started first, so we all decided to tryout for the team, but we soon found out that we didn’t have enough players to put on the field so our football season was forfeited. We took that extra time to build chemistry amongst us players and when the basketball season started we was like the Showtime Lakers. We had a great season, ended our playoff drought but we got knocked out in the 2nd round but I still considered that season a success. We took a failed football season and turned it into great basketball season. We didn’t let fear stop us, we kept pushing forward. Our goal was to make the playoffs and we did! The COVID 19 Pandemic is our opponent right now, we can’t let fear overwhelm us, we must keep our head in the game. We must stay calm during this storm and we must keep the faith, failure is not an option, this is our season for victory, this is our true awakening!
Hope
There are three things that will endure- faith, hope, and love. 1 Corinthians 13:13
Anointed
What am I anointed to do?
Impact
Since I was a kid I’ve always feared death, I guess because there are unknown factors surrounding it. I always say, none of our loved ones has ever come back to tell us how it is on the other side. The death of Kobe and Gigi Bryant and the 7 other souls in that helicopter crash has really put me in a reflection mode, my own mortality has come into question numerous times over this past week. I’m questioning my purpose in life, have I made an impact in this world? When I started this blog in 2016 my goal was to inspire, four years later, 1000 blogs later, is it enough? When is enough, enough? I’ve revamped this blog so many times, I’ve lost count, my brain won’t let me stick to one niche. I truly love the art of storytelling, I love putting all of my emotions out there, I love painting pictures with my words. Hey guys forgive me for rambling but this has been a trying week, it’s hard to put into words. I promise you that my impact will not be ego driven, I truly believe my purpose is to inspire, it remains to be seen what that looks like.
