Singlehood

Singlehood and solitariness. My initial conversation with God brought me to a point of frustration with the way I interacted with the world. I felt so dependent on others for my motivation that when I didn’t have them, I collapsed. Why was it so hard to look in the mirror and love what I saw?ContinueContinue reading “Singlehood”

Lukewarm Obedience

I have been struggling with my relationship with God recently. It’s been developing and growing by leaps and bounds, but there is always a part of you that wants things to stay the same and remain comfortable. Last night, I had a tough revelation that I ignored before but am getting close to accepting now.ContinueContinue reading “Lukewarm Obedience”

NPR Tiny Desk: Noname

Vulnerability is one of the most important things in art. The ability to convey complex emotions and ideas in form is almost alchemy. Turning nothing into something and attracting the world to it. One of my favorite artists of 2016 came and performed at the NPR:Tiny Desk – Noname. Apparently, NPR is slowly planning onContinueContinue reading “NPR Tiny Desk: Noname”

Defining Self

Adulting is hard. Not “level two of Mario Bros.”-hard, more like “starting off on level one and moving on to the next board in a completely different game blindfolded”-hard. Adulthood is literally as scary and confusing as your teenage years were, but with the fear of failing and living under a bridge ramped up to 1000.ContinueContinue reading “Defining Self”

Still Blessed

Recently, my interactions with God have really pushed me to a place that I have never been before. I am not as shaken by things in the world as much as I used to be. I have been reflecting on my fallouts and failures, and they don’t seem as big anymore. I realized that noContinueContinue reading “Still Blessed”

More Life (Album Reflection)

For those wondering, the difference between an album REFLECTION and an album REVIEW deals with the content of the writing for my break down. Reflections typically will cover general thoughts about songs but more about the artist’s trajectory or feelings the album left me. Reviews typically will be song by song breakdowns. Now, “More tune forContinueContinue reading “More Life (Album Reflection)”
