A Life of Transitions!

Hey Divines,

I hope your week has been treating you well!

Recently, I find myself in the position of "transitioning" and moving into a new stage of my life. I have been accepted to a mastery program for Counseling Psychology at Bowie State University (AYE, AYE, AYE BOWIEEEEE!). I wanted to come on here and do a quick check in :)

Long story short, I am moving! I currently live in Rhode Island, but I am moving to Maryland in a few days time. Needless to say there is a lot of anxiety that is coupled with this experience - but I believe that God has a *divine* way of increasing the values we already inherit. Ultimately, I wanted to write this post to welcome anyone else who may be going through a transition in life right now that is causing stress or anxiety. Just know...

We will be okay. We are okay, and this time in life is a blessing. You are doing so well, and all of the things you have been wishing or praying for is soon to come!

In closing, I would like to say a quick prayer as we close out the week. 

Father God in the name of  Jesus, 

We want to thank you for this experience called life. 

We magnify, and glorify your name with the upmost capability within us.

God, as we go forth, we ask for protection and guidance Lord. 

Help us to manage our anxieties and worries by casting them onto you God.

Please instill in us a sense of knowledge, wisdom, and understanding all the days of our lives.

In Jesus name we pray,

Amen. 

Thank you all for joining me on todays blog post, and regardless of your religious identity - I hope you feel a sense of positivity in todays message. We can all be here for one another during the changes that life can bring. 

Be kind. Be caring. Be true. Talk to y'all soon!

- Ali

Let’s Take a Trip Down Memory Lane: A Tale of “Human Nature”

Forrestchump44 - Reddit “…the world assumes white people are naturally good. So when something bad happens, it’s a good person doing a bad thing. They assume black people are naturally bad, so when something good happens, it’s only a matter of time before that animal’s true nature rears its ugly head.” — Mr. Nancy, American Gods

Kung-Fu-Kenny and Mr. Graham - Think Piece

. . . Shhh...I see dead people. Yes, Kendrick Lamar and Drake's beef seems to have come to a raging head, and the internet is going berserk. There's so much to unpack, but for now, I want to discuss two of the main tracks people have been talking about: "Push-ups" and "Meet the Grahams" . Let's start with Drake. From an artistic standpoint, I will be the first one to admit that "Push-ups" is a great diss. Initially, it seemed as though KDot was mad without merit and might have just been a little bitter about something super arbitrary. As things have begun to unravel, we are seeing that all is not as it seems.  *I spoke to a former counseling instructor, and he noted that we are seeing a cultural expression bringing many black issues to the surface.* This segues into the point that Drake has been stepping on the toes of other black artists for a while now. Longtime emcee and recent podcaster Joe Budden suggested that Drake seems to be an agent ...
