Things Change: New Season

I believe that everyone eventually finds themselves. I mean how can you not find yourself? You are the same person you see in the mirror. People go crazy trying to find the one person that is always where you are at all-times, YOURSELF...

However, I do think that things change, each of us has a individual journey and decision to make in our lifetime. Particularly, doing our extensive journey through manhood. We each have a unique path to take to ensure whatever outcome. Which is ultimately the consequence (good or bad) of the things we choose while on the journey/path.

As I type this post, I find myself searching. Not for myself, for I know who I am. I am a young Black man in America, simply trying to make it. However, I am searching for everything that this one definition involves and requires. I am searching for peace (during moments of hardship and just in my daily life), truth (why are we here and particularly, what is the meaning of life for myself), balance (how to balance logic and reason, love and lust, work and relaxation), and manhood (how to always make the best decision, and when is enough; good enough).

I am searching for the ultimate understanding of all these things, which are at the center of emotion and critical thinking.

However, things change. I honestly feel that things change just as the seasons do. Tomorrow will be the first day of Spring  2017, which signals new weather, new opportunities, and new enterprises. However, for myself it means another day/week/month to continue a journey that has gotten me to were I am now. Which has been decent.

However, things are changing for me. I feel that now is the time to pursue the ultimate pursuit of happiness. I feel that it is time for me to make a change. Awaken out of the deep sub-conscious of hibernation, and put forth all of my dreams that I have previously "slept on."

The distractions, hardships, and draining tasks of life have made me numb and lazy to my pursuit of happiness. My dreams, goals, and visions, have taken a backseat due to the unbalance within my journey over the last months. However, things change. As I am now like a new born, or a sober man suddenly awaken out of a drunken state of mind.

Things are changing, for I know I must better myself. No matter how exhausting or taxing, I must be the king of everything. I must prep and plan for the future, but also continue to win within the present moments. I must do both. Things change, just as the seasons do. And, my new season is RIGHT NOW.

RIP Mr. Dick Gregory

Mr. Dick Gregory was much more than a comedian. To simply say he was a comedian would almost water-down his greatness. The greatness in which he used a comedic style to educate those of various generations and philosophies. Mr. Dick Gregory was a man of intelligence, sophistication, and humor. Mr. Gregory was a truth seeker and one whom understood that a man must always investigate the conspiracy as well as facts written in the open to truly get a possible understanding of this cryptic world. Baba Gregory understood the importance of health and taking care of one's body. He understand the importance of a healthy spiritual life, and having a true connection with the one true universal GOD. And, the importance of being aware of our ancestors whom came before we all did. Furthermore, Mr. Gregory understood the importance of mental awareness, and the idea to continue to read and learn throughout the journey of life. Mr. Gregory activism and platform is beyond great, and very ...

FASFA

I try to explore different topics and ideas to discuss/share on the blog. While going through some papers and looking through some stuff, I remember that I forget to write about this topic. Therefore, today we are going to talk about FASFA. First, you may ask, "What is FASFA." FASFA is federal aid or money for going to college. Although they said "federal aid", it is basically tax that is set aside for students who want to go to college, but need money to help pay for college. FASFA is available to students who have need and are looking to attend college (certificate program, associate degree, or 4 year degree). You need to fill out FASFA every year. FASFA should be filled out by any and every student. It is something that will without a doubt helpful in paying for school. A simple summary is basically this: (1) Wait until you or parents file Income Tax (2) Go to this website- https://fafsa.ed.gov/ (3) Create a account (4) Fill out all of the informat...

Short Story of the Fatherless Black Male

I wrote this in the backseat of a car during a road trip. This post may have a couple of grammar errors and a couple of different ideas. But, this is how I truly felt. Let's get into it. I can't sugar-coat it or make it seem insignificant. Point blank, being a young black male without a father sucks. It worse than the stench of rotten eggs, and it feels worse than being hit by a truck at high speed. Being a fatherless male is like having half of your self taken away at birth. Being a father black male means going through life without a round-the-clock mentor, a disciplinary, a friend, a dad. I mean having a mom is a blessing within itself. Most fatherless males usually have a mom. However, if it took two to create, then it is best to take two to mold and build. And, let's be honest, it's some questions no dude feels comfortable or feels right asking their mom. That is just one of the reason why not having a father sucks. At the very least, it is a inconvenien...
