Itâs been some time since Iâve penned my thoughts for sharing in this personal space, in which you are invited to explore . . .
                      First Timerâs, WELCOME!
                       Well, Itâs nice to be here.
 Plenty has transpired since moving to Queens, NY: Broken hand, Better shift at my work place, Released my first solo musical effort called âITâS ABOUT TIMEâ, Befriended some acquaintances, Lost touch with a couple, Cut ties with few. You know, just a bunch a life happening.
 At some point in time we eventually wake up to our calling. Iâve realized that answering your calling can by far be one of the loneliest experiences, while for some, itâs that one experience you want to share with the likes of all you adore, have love for, or take a liking to. Iâm sure for some people their journeyâs play out as planned with friends who had no hand or words in the motions of successful progression. Thatâs cool too I suppose. As it turns out, itâs really about what works for you and what doesnât work for you.
Â
                      Donât get me wrong.
It can get lonely for many reasons, not solely because itâs something that just happens.
 Youâll come across people who will point you in a direction that leads you farther from your calling or end goal. Keep in mind itâs possible that someone pointing you down the wrong path may not be deliberate; they could actually believe itâs the move you should make for the betterment of yourself. Then, there will be people who assist in helping you achieve plenty for only but a season.
 Iâve learned, in life, on that personal journey to answer the call, everybody wonât make it with you. People youâve known for years may take action that demonstrates how much you no longer know them, or never actually knew them.
 Sometimes we are strong enough to push Willfully through the poor habits that tend to break you down rather then build you up. Though I say âSometimesâ, pushing Willfully through bad habits is not exclusive to some, but available to all who donât harbor the ongoing misfortunes of ultimate physical or mental handicap. There will be people you care for who are found entangled in a lifestyle constructed by poor habits. You do what you can to encourage them to recover the Will to break free of those harmful habits, but itâs not on you should they die of thirst in front of the waters youâve led them to.  Let this not stop you from drinking.
 It is likely that those youâll find in your presence at the finish line are but a handful of others who wanted more out of life. You wonât see them at the finish line because youâve won, but because they too had chosen to win for themselves. Together formed, A Winnerâs Circle.
 Moving forward takes an extreme level of Focus, Discipline, Will power, Competence, along with an uncommon desire for more out of life.
 Expect no one beyond yourself to know or understand why what works for you actually works for you. Besides, the concern of another should focus on what they can control and what works for them.
 Take little advice from someone who hasnât figured out their way or themselves. Their knowledge of self is slim to none, so they too will find themselves dancing in the heart of a spiders web â Trapped, Stagnant, Unsure, With no heavy intention of a next stop. Still, they too deserve love, a push for growth, and words of encouragement, as we all do.
 If you want something done, do it yourself. Rely on no one but yourself to make it happen â whatever âItâ may be.
 People will spectate and express opinions of your workings along the way. Keep in mind that the thoughts, feelings, and opinions of another are only Truth for them. Analyze all words sent your way, especially when itâs coming out of the mouth of someone you truly care for. Because you care for someone doesnât mean the feeling is neutral. All are entitled to their personal motives and ideas, but know to not play a role in such business when it isnât necessary or beneficial to your walk. Importantly, understand your personal journey has nothing to do with anyone else. Each of us will have our own personal journey to pursue. Perhaps some will play a part in excelling you farther from your current standings onto a space thatâs closer to your finish line; still no one will ever have the feet to run your race for you. Â
 Getting to and beyond your finish lines in life will be solely on you. Whether you succeed or fail, you have to hold that with absolute truth â disregarding all stories and point of views that donât belong to you.
 Some serve to help. Some serve to teach. Some serve to distract. Some will become a Reason; some will stick around for a Season, and a few will break through with you while keeping near for a lifetime. We donât usually know until weâre accomplished and looking back from the finish line.
                  Whatever occurs, Life will go on.
                     Like life, I too go on.
                        Moving Forward.
