I am Not Fighting Anymore

Image
I am at a stage in my journey where I've completely surrender my being to the Universe - to God. Happiness lies within and can never be achieve from anything outside because everything outside is subject to change but what's within can never be change. I focus my attention on God(my internal spirit) with Jesus as my teacher guiding me through this process of growth. I am so thankful for everyone whose been reading my blog through this journey. As you read you would see the Good times and Bad times and I intended for it to be that way. I sugar coated no experience, I left out no details- this blog revealed the real me. As I write this final post, I would like to say thank you for you for not giving up on yourself, thank you for choosing to strive in-spite of the odds, thank you for seeking personal development. I hope you've gain valuable lessons from this blog and I hope to see you at the next stage of my journey whenever it take me. My final words of wisdom is this

Why am I still in my box?

A year ago my mentor sent me an email about me being inside of box- not showing the world who I am, what my talents are and the gift that God has given me. Eventually I learned how to come out of my box while living in the UK and I was able to impact a few lives while doing so.  Living inside the box was safe, no one knew me, no one expected anything of me, I could be free well at least that was the illusion I was selling to myself. In contrast, living outside of the box created a passion, it made me feel valuable, it showed me my purpose in this world and that was real freedom - knowing everyday that I can impact the world just by being who I was meant to be, created a feeling of "flying" in my soul. I actually love being outside of the box although I am more vulnerable there but I think venerability is the one thing that allows people to connect with you. It's the one thing that allows people to feel comfortable around you(i.e. like a form of humility) so don't

Something Greater

And so the journey continues. I've never felt more alive - not only do I feel different, people have told me I look different to. I am grateful for two years of GROWTH that England gave me. You want to know how strong you are? I advise you step outside of your comfort zone. It is only by stepping outside of yourself that you see the light that's within. By stepping outside of your comfort zone you take on new challenges in life and these challenges tend to take you to new levels. If I didn't move to England I would have never known how strong I was physically and spiritually. Thank God for that cycle of growth! - Take The Leap of Faith... Yes I admit, up to this point I have not lived up to my fullest potential and that's because, in my community people rarely tell you "How Great You Are" as a matter of fact they tell you "How Bad You Are" at things most of the time(I pray one day that changes). I live in a colonial country and so there is a leve

Ghetto Heaven or Hell

Dear God is it fair for a criminal to go to hell? Like is it fair for a uneducated father to go to jail ? These are the questions that make me question my faith, Because we were born into circumstance beyond our control, Whether you black or white, we all want to live right by the rules of our environment, Tupac said "Seek Knowledge from the cradle to the grave" We go to school so society won't labels us the fools, Then we graduate and behind those fake smiles there's a future of uncertainty, How many of us fulfilled our high school/college ambitions?, I guess the truth hurts,for example liking this status won't make the pain go away, These are the questions that make me question my faith, Dear God is it fair for a cociane addict to go to hell?, Like is it fair for a uneducated drug dealer to go to jail ? I'll stand his bail, not because he's my neighbour and the bible says I should love him, Because I am capable of seeing that he's a victim of circ

Human Beings Are Powerful Beings

Our thoughts, actions and behaviors are shaped by the people we come in contact with daily. A friendly conversation can change our whole day while a unfriendly conversation can ruin it. Words of encouragement can inspire the next great leader while critical words destroys one. Our actions, no matter how small it may seem leaves a mark on our future and the futures of others around us. Therefore we must be mindful of our words, for the tongue is truly the must powerful tool we possess as human beings.  We are not tragically bond to hardships and shortcomings. With understanding of those hardships and shortcomings, a man can rise to the level of GREATNESS. The journey is not to be won but to be endured. The path is only to be walked, there is no understanding or knowledge we can gain in this lifetime that will ever be enough. Humble Thy Self for man have travel to the moon but still haven't cured poverty. The pursuit of intelligence is fallible, the pursuit of wisdom is Liberatio

Dr. Ross says "Your job is to use the power of what happened to you to transform" After watching Dr. Ross’ presentation one of the questions all concerned, compassionate Turks Islanders should seriously be asking ourselves, our elected, civil, social, community and religious leaders is, “What real substantial changes in our society’s attitude and laws need to occur to prevent Child Abuse and Neglect that often causes young kids to mature into depressed, frustrated, angry, unp redictable, sometimes suicidal teens and adults as a result of experiencing the emotional and/or physical trauma of an abusive childhood?” Over the past few months I've observed the spike in crime within our community and though I am somewhat impressed by the recommendations that have been suggested to combat crime, I still believe "Prevention is cure". There are numerous amounts of studies that report most criminals experiencing some sort of childhood trauma that propels them to

Making Progress On New Year's Resolution

How do I make progress this year ? 1. Tackling the biggest misconception about new year's resolutions(NYR) - It does not have to start at the beginning of the year. Most people begin the year believing that change must be made instantly. It does not work like that. Change just like anything in the world that is worth having, takes time. Change is like a seed, you plant it, water it and make sure it is getting exposure to sunlight. By doing those things, you have made an effort and the rest is up to the universe to decide whether you are ready for a new plant(change) in your life. The universe gives us what we are ready for and it always comes at the right time.  2. What if my NYR is finding Love ? - The seed you plant for love is a seed you plant inside of yourself. A seed of personal growth; you must become the person you want to fall in love with and that takes time. We hold on to our beliefs on how life should turn out and honestly life should not be shaped by such expec
