The Day my Heroes fell from the Sky
I remember the night that my entire perspective on life changed. At this one moment, I was no longer the wide-eyed kid from Detroit.

I tried to pinch myself, praying that I was having a reallyContinueContinue reading “The Day my Heroes fell from the Sky”

Thoughts on Love & Value
After spending a week with my family in Atlanta. I was able to see something I can honestly say I had never seen growing up.

Top of the Bucket List: Pick up some Instruments
I think it is important to have goals in life. Outside of a good job, a strong family, and becoming debt free. We often forget about the small things in life. We forget the simple enjoyable things that add variety to everyday life. We stop reading, we stop writing, we fall into passive activities andContinueContinue reading “Top of the Bucket List: Pick up some Instruments”
Healing Journey

The older I’ve gotten, the more I have gone from sleeping in every Saturday Morning from partying every Friday Night, to waking up Saturdays with a purpose. Not like I still get ANYTHING done on Saturdays, but it’s a start. It’s progress.ContinueContinue reading “Maturity Sneaks Up On You”
Today’s Post: Coexistence with God
Today, I wanted to write about something very personal to me. Yet, it’s very opinionated so I decided to put it on my second home, The Classroom. Just like academia is a home for liberal thought*, The Classroom is where I talk about all things culture, art, music, philosophy, religion, relationships, and random musings. It’sContinueContinue reading “Today’s Post: Coexistence with God”
