    Pursuing Your Purpose In The Face Of Fear

    April 21, 2019April 21, 2019

โ €
Iโ€™ll begin this by saying Happy Birthday to a man whose greatness has stretched beyond the constraints of time. Whose short life was remarkable such a way that he will honored for years to come.
โ €
But in the midst of the celebration let us not forget that the dream he so eloquently spoke of that day, has yet to be actualized. Instead, his legacy and name, are evoked into conversations about โ€œ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™–๐™˜๐™šโ€ and wielded about like a foreboding warning far too often. โ€œBe like MLK, remember him, celebrate him โ€” just not what we did to silence him.โ€
โ €
Year after year we watch while America hurls his name atop of their pseudo praise pies like the final touch. I call it #๐—จ๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜†.
โ €
โ€œWe are all the same on the inside, letโ€™s be like Dr. King!โ€ - Brand that employs 1 Black person out of 500 employees. Thatโ€™s #๐—จ๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜†.
โ €
Government writes a tweet about how they honor his legacy and life. Failing to acknowledge that treason is occurring as we speak. #๐—จ๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜†
โ €
Schools teaching children about his life and not saying how his own country ultimately took his life for the very thing they praise him for trying to do. #๐—จ๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜†
โ €
How about this year instead of spouting out empty birthday wishes and quotes, we remember this was a young man, a father, a brother; who dedicated his not even four decades on earth to fighting for the equality of his people. He was beaten, jailed, stalked, had his life on the line more often than not and ultimately was taken from us before he could see the fullness of his lifeโ€™s work come to fruition.
โ €
Donโ€™t be guilty of #UnityParsley. Itโ€™s played out and Dr. King deserves so much more. Happy Birthday to the real MVP. America, do better.

    One of the things I always said I wanted in my mar One of the things I always said I wanted in my marriage was for it to not only be a blessing to me, but to others.
โ €
Living in a time where folks are jaded by relationships and love, marriage seems like the greatest feat in the world. It can be daunting to think about spending your life with someone, sound monotonous and boring, and anxiety inducing. When I got married for the first month or so I felt the urge to run. Which was strange considering we had already lived together so, what had ๐™ง๐™š๐™–๐™ก๐™ก๐™ฎ changed?
โ €
It was ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ.
โ €
The idea that I had made this life long decision. What if I was wrong? What if this wasnโ€™t for me? Maybe I chose badly? The truth is - ๐™ข๐™–๐™ง๐™ง๐™ž๐™–๐™œ๐™š ๐™™๐™ค๐™š๐™จ๐™ฃโ€™๐™ฉ ๐™—๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ฎ๐™ฉ๐™๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ค๐™ช๐™ฉ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™จ๐™ค๐™ข๐™š๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š ๐™ฉ๐™๐™–๐™ฉ ๐™™๐™ž๐™™๐™ฃโ€™๐™ฉ ๐™–๐™ก๐™ง๐™š๐™–๐™™๐™ฎ ๐™š๐™ญ๐™ž๐™จ๐™ฉ. It uncovers. It shines a light on the dark corners because theyโ€™re in full view now. Itโ€™s easy to hide when you can retreat to your own safe space.
โ €
Do we disagree? Yes. ๐Ÿ’ฏ
Do we misunderstand one another at times? Yup. โ€ผ๏ธ
Do we get angry? Sure. ๐Ÿ˜ก
โ €
But it rarely lasts because thereโ€™s nothing hidden here. Marriage, for all its flaws, has plenty of perks. Someone who chose to grow along side you, is a major one. Growth is hard but having a person who wants to hold your hand through it, lift you up in it, or give you a shove when it gets tough? Thatโ€™s the blessing.
โ €
Sure Iโ€™m in happy in my marriage, but Iโ€™m also happy that folks can see it and it makes them happy too. Thatโ€™s being blessed to be a blessing.
โ €
๐Ÿ’ญMarried or not, how has a couple you know unknowingly touched you with their love?

    This morning I was thinking about success and givi This morning I was thinking about success and giving. And how the two are so intricately connected. Many people think so deeply about their own comeuppance with themselves at the forefront. But if we begin to shift our thinking toward others and how what we create can benefit ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š๐™ข, we will likely experience the success we crave much quicker.
โ €
Growing up I always heard, โ€œitโ€™s more blessed to give than receive,โ€ for a long time I wondered how? ๐Ÿค” Until I began to understand that having a heart to serve leads to people wanting to pour into ๐™ฎ๐™ค๐™ช. Keeping how we can serve others at the forefront of things we create, will ultimately ensure that:

๐ŸŒˆgoals are reached
