No More Pain...

Shout out to Chris Keys

"...Cause I'm back now with something to prove... | Everything to gain, pimpin'. Nothing to lose!..." I'd say repeatedly over T.I.'s track "I Cant Quit". The whole Trap Muzik album has been my soundtrack ever since it was released. I've always used it as a catalyst to my productivity  whenever I'm in get-something-done mode. However, this time a dark cloud of unfulfilled desires rained on my parade.

Is Humility Required to Remain Preponderant?

I often wonder what is the root of jealously so I can counter it's growth in others before it begins to blossom. I find that those whom I previously called my close friends are not even my associates anymore ever since I have began endeavoring to greater things. This separation seems sequential. As I left them behind academically and professionally, I eventually left them behind socially. Never were these things intentional but with hope to be inspirational. Now, reflecting on these things I've realized that I did influence something in my peers, just not what I had imagined; I sparked some attempts to bring me down internally.

PWC eXpedition 2010

They say all things are appreciated deeeper when you have either lost something or came close to losing something. Well, this belief can be applied to my position towards the premier PWC eXpedition experience. There were a number of things that almost blocked my attendance, but when I arrived I was immediately appreciative of the environement.

East Atlanta Zone Six

This is my hood...

But know that there are some highly, positively influential  people to emerge out of #EastAtlantaZone6. Over the course of the next few months, I will begin a study of my hood and promulgate the positiveness it produces. Stay tuned...a newer blog may emerge.

Attitude...

Wiser words from Paw Paw always hit deep. Today the simplicity of his argument hit even deeper. I guess the phrase "less is more"  is best exemplified when my Paw Paw is attempting to prove a point. He sat me down and we touched on Lindsay, drugs, rehab, planes, interpersonal skills, and attitudes. Ironically, the latest of the topics seem to hit home the most.

You're Better Than Most

My only hope... is for you to be able to elevate your standards above their expectations.
