Shedding the Illusions of Purpose

  Shedding the Illusions of Purpose https://www.spreaker.com/episode/shedding-the-illusions-of-purpose--71060092 Family, we’ve been lied to about what it means to be "purpose-driven." Everywhere you look, somebody is telling you to grind harder, take on another project, or add a new title to your resume just to figure out why you are here. But what if your Nia (Purpose) isn't buried in the future? What if it's currently suffocating under the weight of everything you're carrying right now? We often think the path to peace and power is about acquisition. But the greatest warriors know that agility comes from dropping the armor that no longer serves you. Are you exhausted because you lack purpose, or are you exhausted because you are living out three different narratives that don't belong to you? We dive deep into this paradox on today's episode. Call to Inaction: "A tree does not grow by holding onto its dead leaves; it grows by letting them fall."...

Zombies

I was thinking about Americas fascination with zombies. I wonder why they seem like the rage of the times. There is zombie shows and movies popping up everywhere, and I cant help but to wonder why? Is the American public enjoying the idea of mindless, twits running around with a bottomless hunger that can never be satisfied. Is subconsciously taking a look at its self in these fantasies. Hell, as i was driving to work I swear a saw a few zombies walking to their nest.  Shit we seem at least to me to be living in a post or maybe current apocalyptic time, in which people are being infected with a mental virus that catapults them into a zombie state. I have witnessed many occasions in which people have shut there thinking off and acted as zombie. I myself am guilty of this shit that I am describing. Christmas is approaching and watch some of the shit the masses do in the name of this holiday. Zombies are not on the TV or in movie theaters they exi...

Against All Odds- Preston J. Harrison

 Against All Odds Destiny surrenders born as an underdog, I was raised by a giant to learn to see through the fog. The coast was always guarded and sometimes would be clear for hope , faith and dreams could only come but very near. I looked around and found no one I could resemble, none just like me truly trying hard to be so nimble. I kept my dream a secret though my ambition told them all. My mouth kept shut, my eyes wide open to see those before me fall. "Not my fate ", I told myself as others claimed they heard me say. I declared my life my own then out on faith I made my way.

Spoiled

Why spoil your children/ Then send them to public school/ Expecting some growth/ This Ha2ku is not just about spoiled kids, and then again it is. If we want to set standards for ourselves and others that is cool, but when we expect and even in some cases demand that others abide by these standards, we are not being realistic. I think that every parent, every lover, and every friend should spoil those closest to them, but to do this and not prepare them for the cold world is setting the spoiled up for a terrible crash. When the spoiled are flung into an environment that is not designed to cater to them they may not be able to handle the situation, which can lead to failure. This thought hit me as I was dealing with some young people that could not adjust to the school environment. When we spoil individuals then we need to willing to provide and give them what they need. For example, if you feel that you need to spoil and smother your child with attention then "Home Sch...
