I am Here Day 22/365

I am here

Hey, I haven’t been writing my blogs for a while. I have been focusing on posting a little wix website to display some of my artwork. If anyone knows anything about success, is that failure is required. And you only fail when you call it quits. Never stop moving towards the goal. Just because I have failed to post daily, this blog is still a “daily”. I feel like you can still pull 365 great points and use them towards daily progression. I felt like writing again today, only because I know the importance of quality over quantity. I want to make sure my blogs are consistent with good content.

Lately, I have been so in-tuned with national affairs and politics. I see a lot of things going on in the news. From Donald Trump’s inauguration to the school shooting in New Mexico at a private school, there’s a shift in the atmosphere. A million women marched around the country in order to display a message of unity and power. As our country takes a turn for a direction that none of us can bet on, we must stay focused on what is important. It took long enough for some people to realize how red-blooded the clock the world spins to actually is. Everything is done by “the man”. But, we see where that gets us… Longing for change. Wanting growth. How are we going to achieve that? It’s nothing I can say or type to make a moment large enough to conquer a nation alone. It takes unity, knowledge and most importantly love.

Day 5/365 FIVE GOLDEN RINGSSS🎶

Day 5/365 FIVE GOLDEN RINGSSS🎶

Five points at 5 a.m. about the world we live in. AND I promise, all of these points are golden.

• Image you and everyone in your graduating class getting together and making a commitment to build a nation together. Your Dean is the “president”, but this small government is the perfect utopia for your class. No real worry about who is leading you. No thought on what's being passed down to you from those in power, because this is something cool and new. After about 5 generations of building up this nation, it's now medium sized with a homegrown society. With beliefs so hard hitting, this government now is religiously strong. With the impact of authority and manipulation of control, the growth becomes cancerous. Only because of how well rooted this concept of living in a well groomed place is. There's now ways to trade. Further down the road, complex underlying sectors start to run your little utopia due to mastering the bartering/thieving system. (I'm not going to grab your hand and walk you to every point. Use your imagination)
• This society now passes on ideals that the higher authorities before handed down…. Whether it be bullshit or not. Oops. Anyways, the American Government has been recorded to be founded in 1789. You remember the history lessons. They were people who decided to stand on their own, grow on their own ideals and prosper. And when I say prosper, I mean in their sense of the word. Last time I checked, gentrification is not prosperous or of God. “One nation under God”, really? You sure, America? History has here. We woke up one day, realized we were a person and just started being taught what we know as “history” and mathematics. Even earlier than we knew who we were as an individual. In school, we had a curriculum that gave guidelines on what we needed to learn. Well, who wrote these and what were their intentions teaching me this? It goes further back than what we have access to. A lot of conquering of people has been done over time. A lot of things are untold.
• I understand the importance of basking in you and your people’s story and not HIStory, what they tell you happened. I know for a fact people like the Native Indians' sacred belongings were confiscated by “conquerors”. So ,it was harder to implement and instill their Native beliefs due to displacement. The intruders used the slash and burn method. Cut away what and who is there, demolish their previous existence and rebuild on top like nothing happened. Never once be close-minded to another culture's past and traditions. Learning about yourself and your history goes hand in hand with loving who you are. You will realize how much has been covered up and blocked out. Understanding that there are over 7 billion people with a tale. Each individual is unique. This will help you get the fact that a lot of principles your government was based your being off of are one sided. Know that you deserve to be taught the truth or at least more than the curriculum. But then we, as the lesser will, begin to know too much. Knowledge is power.
• If humans understood their worth and how imperative it is to work as a fully functioning body, there would be no need for government. That's mathematically impossible to accomplish now. In order for that to happen, everyone in the world would have to actually love each other sincerely. This means EVERY SINGLE HUMAN putting aside the love of themselves simultaneously and trusting the next to love as you would yourself. This will automatically disrupt the corruption. There would be no crimes being done, because the love of money is no longer the root of evil. And by the time everyone hops on the wave, some meteor comes and has wiped us out. And the masterminds in that tiny percentage of wealthiest people understand all of this. Every civilization has it's fall. But people are evolving and these upper class world citizens know that only the strong survive.
• My last point. My spill on money is very perplex. Each bit of matter gives off a certain amount of vibrations, according to science. Elements give off a certain vibration that they hold special powers. Thinking as far fetched as I do, I'm thinking this is legit. Think about it. This shiny thing called gold come from the dirt and everyone wants it. It doesn't do anything cool but shine and you'll bust your butt for it. Kill and steal for it. Just like the California Gold rush that compares nothing in history to the stories unwritten that would tell about genocide over shiny possessions and land. The infatuation with these materialistic things and fortune really stem from what the mind takes it as. Let's say a 1 year old child stumbled across an unpolished small chunk of gold. I doubt they would understand it's worth, let alone do anything to cash out and obtain more. Money is ran fiat based, which means faith based. The concept of everyone, including the lessers, having actual gold and valuables behind the paper being passed around has evolved. Now, it is easy to make money. You either have to be smart and get it how you live or work most of your life selling your valuable time for cash. So much of it is circulating and the nature of the flow is too complex to imagine. If everyone in the world stop loving money and overcome all forms of authority, everything would stop. The earth would stop spinning. But, we all know that's crazy talk.

Day 4/365 Centering and Balancing

How I centered me around myself, yet also balanced being down to earth.

A list…

1. Stood face to face with myself. Came to term with who I am. I slowly began to understand who I was and shook what everyone said I was by paying attention to the wellbeing of me. My mind was all over the place at one point. My spirit longed for answers. My soul knew what it wanted. It was only when I meditated one day, on my own terms, that I became centered. It was a moment of enlightenment when I knew my soul, spirit and mind was one. I was complete. I even began acknowledging the fact that I was too aware to be a normal person. My third eye had been opened.
2. Where I was and where I needed to be. In order for you to improve yourself, you have to be aware of your surroundings. Look around you. Is the environment you are exposed to safe or a hole of emptiness? Try to remove yourself from these settings. If you can't, plot to get out and find a secure place to call your own in the midst of corruption. Realize there has to be a fresh atmosphere around you in order for you to grow properly. Constantly keep the space around you clean.
3. Who's breathing your air? Are you around people with the same interests and ideals as you? If so, are these people offering a relationship that will mutually nurture all parties? You can't possibly progress with cancerous people attached to you. Do you. Let your happiness, progression and success reflect off of you and speak for itself. People will see it and follow you towards the right direction. Do not stay on the same level, just because there's people around you. Keep the momentum of growth and positivity going. Keep pushing for up.
4. Realizing my purpose and what time it is. When you open your third eye, it's impossible for it to close again. So any ignorance after which is, in my books, considered absolutely intolerable. After coming to term with “me, myself and I ”, there's no turning back. Your GOD given gifts will be revealed to you. You can then start perfecting your talents and craft. Prosperity on this earth is centered around being grounded in yourself and also giving back, using what GOD gave you.
5. Understand you have a job to do. How are you going to do it? Every person is born with their own personal set of human powers. Some people can sing and touch hearts while others can teach lessons that can never be erased. You have natural born leaders and advocates that know how to speak life and encourage many. It is your job to dig into you. Even craftsmen that can build up nations. Figure out how to navigate on earth in this lifetime with what you have inside of you. Don't abuse your strength because as easy as they are given, they can be taken away. (Lol until humans realize we all have something different to offer each other and if we work together and be fruitful together and only love love itself earth would be like a well oiled machine, but what the heck is a Utopia anyways?!?!?)

You have to use every step above to unlock your superpower and conquer this life. Live and try to figure out you in this lifetime. With me, I let every bad thing go that was attached to me. I removed myself from people I didn't need next to me by simple stepping up my game. I walked away from places that left me vulnerable to be attacked by bullcrap. I not only opened my eyes but I tapped into my third eye to help me answer questions about me and what's around me. I instantly realized my time on earth had to be one for the books. And how would I accomplish totality? Always thinking, “how can I be better than that last moment?” I separated myself from materialistic addictions, like money and the fabricated riches of this world. I told myself I wouldn't be a slave to a 9-5 job. I would use my gifts to not only live a prosperous life, but to give back also. So, good luck on your journey. Carpe Diem.

Day 3/365 Lucky number Seven [teen].

Year Lucky Number Seven[teen].
I usually start my blogs explaining a correlation between me growing up and the topic of discussion. So, with that being said I will continue the cliché: As a preacher's kid, my childhood consisted of “grounding” me into the Word of God. So, I am nothing less than educated on a lot of things in a religious or spiritual sense. The purpose of this particular blog is not to blab on about my life as a young black Baptist girl transitioning into a non-religious, non-traditional spiritually inclined third-eye having being. I just came to spread a little insight about what I know when it comes to the meaning behind a few things, like the number 7. Also, I’d like to express how speaking life into the manifestation you want is important. I will even insinuate various beliefs can be relate to you,  be uplifting AND maybe just maybe you'll gain insight outside of your go to religion and traditions.  I promise I'll speak in layman's terms and not preach like some “holier-than-thou” prick. From my understanding, there is significance behind the number 7. There's 7 Chakras which shows us the body is composed of seven parts that work as one: head, torso, right and left arm, right leg, left leg, and the Brit Mila. There are 7 direction; up, down, left, right, forward, back and center. Also, the God-given primary colors shown on the rainbow…. I remember it as a man named ROY G. BIV thanks to my 1st grade art teacher. They stands for red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Even in music, there are seven levels to the scale.The bible explains in Genesis that God created the Earth in seven days, which labels 7 as the number of the natural world. It is the number of completion. I believe, whatever meaning you give it, make sure it is positive. The universe feeds off of everything we declare out of our mouth. Hence, me explaining why 2017 will be the lucky year. The seed I am sewing will be redeemed this time around. I know whatever plans I have, they will be executed tactfully. My bills will be paid off completely. How come? Because, I insist on putting that in the atmosphere. That this year, I will live by lucky number 7. I’ll continue be open-minded to ensure my knack for gaining knowledge is continuous like the symbol for “the Seed of Life” (lol which of course, is made of 7 parts). I've read about this religion called Bahá’i and it entails the concept of the 7 Valleys. The Valley of unity, knowledge, search, love, contentment, wonderment, and the Valley of Poverty/Absolute Nothingness. All of which gave me a story to take from. I will get to understand the 7 principals of wisdom, too. I encourage and motivate you to stay in the habit of waking up willing to exert positive energy and speak life! Live today by the seven virtues; faith, hope, love, force, justice, prudence and temperance. There's so much to explore this year. So much life to speak into this new year and so much to complete.

Day 2/365 The Art of Listening

The art of listening.

 

Being hard-headed is something that I have personally fought with. I tend to do as I please. Being defiant and head strong only works when you realize how to listen to everything and act thoughtfully off of what you have learned. I used to be one that was too quick to speak but nothing could get through to me enough to where I wanted to obey. There was plenty of times I was scolded because whatever my mother told me, I did the opposite. She would say “The only way you're going to learn your lesson is if one day I tell you to go right and you go left. But, it's too late! A bomb blew up in your face.” The thought of this terrified me, even in my sleep as I fought this demon in my dreams. I struggled with the idea that my head was so hard due mainly to curiosity and that might be my downfall. I will remind you often how vital it is to know that there is a time and a place for everything. But, it is ALWAYS the time to listen. People will tell you the answer to any question, whether it had been verbalized, false account or left unasked. You first have to understand where your viewpoint is and then take what you heard from that point on…. Run with it. There are always new analysis you could come up with just by sitting back, reading the room, listening and watching. Since I've gotten older, I've learned to appreciate the lessons I was taught. I didn't listen to them but somehow the morals are now engraved in me. I had to learn to listen in order to listen to learn. This takes time and is something I recently perfected. Once I became aware of the importance of staying tuned in, it became my greatest ally. When around someone, just listen. Listen to the things they say, pick through the empty talk and align it with what you know is true. Usually, there is always a subtle meaning in everything someone says. I've recognized people will tell you who they are and how they feel without even realizing it. Why? Because a child does not know or speak on things until they are exposed to it. You can figure out what the contents of someone's mind is and how corrupt they are just by listening closely to the subconscious and conscious things that spill from their mouth. It is impossible to speak in a direction your mind can't even conceive the thought of. That's why when people talk a certain way that isn't even in my train of thought, I always say “I wasn't thinking like that”. Be slow to speak and quick to listen and aware. You don't know who's around you? Speak. Listen intensively. Listen more. Keep listening. Let them talk. Listen. And repeat. I promise there will be a portrait they paint for you. I've always been taught “real recognizes real”, “know the spirit by the spirit” and “takes one to know one”. After you listen, if the red flags are there act accordingly. Don't act like it ain't what it is.  The point of listening is to gain understanding. Warning comes before destruction. Pay attention to the warning signs that you hear and use it to your advantage. Makes no sense to listen and be ignorant. Act on what was given to you.

Day 1/365 Commitment and Growth

Where are you trying to go and how will you get there?

 

I've decided to walk into the New Year with a daily blog. The only thing i can think of that is appropriate to write about is commitment and growth. I will commit to writing a blog everyday. It will show real growth if I can stick to completing a read daily. I encourage you to make it your business to wake up and complete every day sticking to a commitment or two that will end in a great manifestation. I was always told that I have great plans. As a young girl, I would find it in my vast imagination exactly what I wanted to do in this world full of possibilities. I used to print out the steps on how to accomplish different occupations i wanted to try. I would come up with little inventions that popped up in my head. I read about everything from how to become an Obgyn to how to open up a lemonade stand or bakery. I've even tried to patent a few lovely ideas. All I had was a badly drawn out sketch to my hopeful idea. I find myself as a young adult with a lot of balled up paper overflowing in my trashcan of ideas I've never conquered. My mother would say “You have great plans, but they don't mean anything if you don't stick to them.” It's all because I have spent my time and energy focusing on the wrong things instead. So I have to constantly detox and purge my mind body of things that are spiritually and physically strenuous and intoxicating. Any impurity that will potentially prevent me from growth has to go. There's one thing that is mandatory for life and growth: DEATH. Learn how to take the “bad” with the “ugly”, but death can be neither. When trying to develop a mindset that is a 180° transition, master the art of eliminating the negative weight in order to prevent a relapse back to where you started. Step one: Analyze what needs to be different. Assess the situation. Step two: Target, remove and kill the bad. Step three: Commit and execute your transition. Step four: Stop, analyze and repeat. You can apply these steps to any change that you'd like to make. Understand the importance of organization and keeping your plans written down. Constantly reference your outline, being aware of road blocks that pop up along the way. Prepare detours when you sit down at step one, because nothing goes completely as planned. By being a well  thought out, organized person you access more possibilities to success. You then begin to learn time management and that is simply efficiency. And time is money, right? That's what everyone lives for, right? Speaking of “right”, the only way to get the best results, you have to make sure things are done right. Put forth all your effort and love into these goals and aspirations. Also, tap into the gifts you were born with, use them. Why? There's countless reasons why. Love never fails; make your growth something you're passionate about. Faith without works is dead. Keep working and perfecting your craft, persistence is a great trait to carry. Once you obsess with the idea of change, procrastination isn't even a factor. Things start to become accomplished. Whatever you eat everyday, whether it be physical, emotional or mental is important when it comes to growth. You filter all the things you need out and expel the waste. What is happening when you're feeding yourself things that aren't beneficial. You're not only adding things into yourself that can be corrosive, but you're wasting time by not receiving what you need in order to grow. It is imperative to not only plan strategically for everything you want but to commit for best results. Absorb the lessons that come along with the journey and flourish.
