IAMFORGIVEN

CAN YOU UNDERSTAND? IS IT POSSIBLE?

My entire life I was raised in this bubble called America, where my world view was shaped by the music I listened to, the TV and movies I watched, and the people I was around. My goals and visions were based on how I can impress people with all that I have accomplished and material…

Need a Relationship Reset?

Smart phones can be a love / hate relationship for me. When you first get them they are super fast and everything normally works just the way you want them to. Click a button and boom your application is up and running. But what happens, is then you start to install more apps. You add…

Talking your SELF up.

We live in a society of people who are extremely confident in themselves. We look to idolize talent and elevate humans as somebody to be like. And that causes people to want to strive to be in the spotlight and get that recognition. When I first moved to LA, I notice a commonality in the…

For the love of Money

Growing up I was really into this group called Bone Thugs N Harmony. They were the pioneers of tongue twisting rap, where they would flow out super quick rhymes and make it sound really easy and smooth. It was actually pretty impressive! One year they came out with a song called “For the Love of…

ONE YEAR OLDER

My birthday was yesterday and I realized that I am one year older. Funny how that works! Each year God takes you through a journey that will grow you, teach you and allow you to gain more wisdom. The older you are, the more life experience you have, and that can either be good or…

He was lonely!

His head was down texting away with not having a clue what was going on around him. When he was done with that text he would immediately check his Facebook to see if anybody had sent him a message. Nothing! So he looked up for a little bit and then immediately started to look at…

I will miss you!

He had lived a life of struggles and pain, some self afflicted and some were out of his control. Two years ago I was looking for a place to live and God brought me to this house where I met this guy named David. He was an older gentleman but super nice and I felt…

YOU OWE ME!

Nowadays, it seems like everybody lives life with this sense of entitlement. As if the world owes us everything and we deserve things just to be given to us. I question why? Why do people think just because they want it, or just because they are born, others should give up what they have for…
