Living Life & Loving It

Blessed To See 2024!

Not gonna speak about what I have been through since my last post…but I may have caught COVID on the plane to and from California. Definitely continue wearing those masks when in public places because people do NOT give a fawk about not covering their mouths AT all!!

I digress.

I just wanted to touch based and say I have not disappeared into the void again. I just been illmatic and life has been life’n as usual. I am bac tho…still rounding the edges around all of the things I am doing. Maybe I’m doing too much?

Either way,

MANY BLESSING FOR US ALL IN THE NEW YEAR OF 2024!!!

Presently In The Past

Continuously tryna figure it out…

The way I have been feeling lately can’t be explained in words. A LOT of “new” things/challenges have been placed in my life. Things that I have NEVER experienced. The most overwhelming part is these things have happened all at the same tyme. Figuring out how all the pieces fit together has been a MAJOR task to overcome! A lot of these challenges deal with topics I have ZERO experience with!

I have to take a step back to figure out where I want to go. This is “Throwbac Thursday” ? And by it being a reoccurring, every week, constant in LIFE, I would like to use this day to take a step into my past and share a story or two with Ü. Not even gonna hold Ü up, this is gonna be HARD to keep going because I don’t recollect a LOT of topics that might be of benefit to the “grander scheme of things” but I will also try to provide resources and references based on “artifacts” that have been left.

It’s gonna eventually get DEEP!!!

A lot of the songs I have wrote over the years are based on the life I have led. I typically use the music as a therapist. I am able to speak honestly with myself through music and I SOMETYMES even provide solutions to the topic during the song. I’m gifted like Christmas!

Rock with me! This is gonna end up interesting eventually…

Opposite of a Blessing

Blight!

Based on the ending of my last post, I had a thought that sent my mind moving into a directions of discovery. I’m gonna share what I Columbused based on this definition:

There can be many ways that we can become “blessed” in our lives. In the same breath, we may encounter just as many “blights” in our lifes (it rhymed and I liked saying it better). The key (in my opinion) is how we handle the overall nature of these two outside influences on our being. Just as someone could “bless” Ü, they could also place a “blight” upon your life.

What I feel may be key is how we operate when either is placed in our path. What I mean in so many words, when Ü have been blessed and the blessing runs out, what do Ü do? If the blight comes into ya life, how do Ü respond?

I could honestly drag this thought out a bit more but I will let it simmer in the sauce a lil bit.

Peace!

Slight Work

It’s still work!

Closing out the month STRONG, I want to say THANK Ü to those that have took the tyme to read my words!!! It’s greatly appreciated on a few levels! That being said, I am constantly improving my approach to THIS blog. Even while allowing “grace”, the goal is to make sure I bring MY TRUTH through in these words.

Typically I would be posting this on SUNDAY, but it’s the busy season for Medicare and Medicaid and I’m tryna make sure yo momma keep her prescriptions for next year! Until then:

  1. Got my eye exam! Its been over 4 years since I last had one. Dayum glasses cost me $400 tho! Might have shoulda kept being blind…
  2. I still haven’t finished the song I was writing….I’m close tho! I have been hiring for verse work though so I gotta knock that out before I continue the song. I’m currently writing like 3 or 4 songs but only 2 are of importance.
  3. Open A Dayum Book!!! (I bought another one though…)
  4. I might have a performance this week. Nothings been officially confirmed so more than likely not.
  5. Organize the November calendar!!!

A whole ass other month of blessings and…what is the opposite of a blessing? That’s a thought…either way, I AM definitely embracing the upcoming month like a long lost cat. We going straight to the vet BEFORE the embrace but still, nonetheless , we will embrace this November and brace ourself as well!

Ü never know…

Every 24 Hours

They Add Up As Well!

Old/Bad habits are definitely hard to break…especially when there is no motivation to set a new precedent. I have been extremely hard on myself for not doing “the bare minimum” and not giving myself the credit for doing what I have never done before. There are tymes I become burnout based on the not being able part…I need come out of my mind more. I’m sure there is a book for that.

I started making this “week overview” as a way to gauge MY progress towards goals I want to accomplish. Making sure I have a bit more accountability for myself than normal. That’s the goal…one of them…

Other than that, I think I have a grand grip on things this week!

Da Fawk???

Maaan…

FAWK SPIDER-MAN!!!!!

“Everybody wanna be Spider-Man!!! Be something else!!!” – My 6 year old

I FEEL him!!! Like NO other!

“We can make a Spydamane coustume dude! Take a pillowcase and cut some holes in it and then we ca-“

“No!”

“I’m mean, what’s wrong with the Black Panther???”

“It’s not the same thing!”

I didn’t grow up like this at ALL! I didn’t have a CHOICE!? I didn’t have a SAY! The experience of the holidays was lowkey taken from me (as an adult, I am thankful for that)! But the major fact is that I first hand KNOW what it’s feels like to be excluded from them fawk ass “reindeer games”. So I must be more active and hands on so I can make sure they experience….experiences!

My son definitely knows about not getting what he wants…but he always has something! All of them! Even though I rather buy them the damn candy cause these costumes are expensive and stupid!!!

FAWK SPIDER-MAN!!!

I’m sorry…
