Artist: T.I Album: Paper Trail Song: Live Your Life
"I'm the opposite of moderate, immaculately polished with the spirit of a hustler and the swagger of a college kid. Allergic to the counterfeit, impartial to the politics. Articulate but still would grab a nigga by the collar quick. Whoever had the problems with they record sales, just holla 'til. If that don't work and all else fails, then turn around and follow 'til. I got love for the game but ay I'm not in love with all of it. I do without the fame and the rappers nowadays are comedy. The hootin' and the hollerin', back and forth with the arguing. Where you from, who you know, what you make and what kind of car you in. Seems as though you lost sight of whats important with the positive. And checks into your bank account, and you're up out of poverty/ Your values is in disarray, prioritizing horribly. Unhappy with the riches cause you piss poor morally. Ignoring all prior advice and fore warning. And we might be full of ourselves all of a sudden aren't we?"
NATELY SAYS: Thanks to UniversalHipHop for the quote. This song is DOPE..HAAAY HOOOO! That beat gives me goosebumps...the entire concept of this song gives me goosebumps. That chorus is dope...i'd rather hear "Red 5ive" sing it tho...
Dude, I am worried about my dog...i hope she's not lonely. I pray to God that He make the best decision. I know what I think is right, but God only knows the bigger picture. I miss her so much. Damn. I hate that she must feel rejected by her family. I am selfish and don't want anyone to adopt her...at the same time, what if that's in God's plan??? I'm pissed. I feel guilty for leaving.... UGGGGGGGGGHhhhh.... This hurts my soul... I wish she could call me and say "No I'm doing alright! Don't worry about me..." Instead all I hear her saying in her head is "What happened? They didn't love me anymore? WHere are they? I miss them... " =(
I pray God is warming her heart with love...I pray that she knows in her spirit why this happened.
Well, I've warned you...I'm definitely ALL OVER THE PLACE. I originally started a blog HERE. Eventually, I got bored of the layout and jumped to MY LIVEJOURNAL account. I was introduced to MY TUMBLR account through a 'net buddy. So there I go "blog hopping"...I liked the layout of Tumblr...however, it just seems easier to post from here, since I'm in my gmail DAILY...I actually had fun posting like crazy on LiveJournal. I will definitely make more time to add the weird stuff that fascinates me.
Soooo, I have my moments....where i lose my courage. I HATE THAT!! LOL...it's just that TIME is too precious to give in to FEAR...SO i kick myself in the ass everytime I give into my fears.
I won't LIST my fears here...because, well...why waste keystrokes on Fake Evidence Appearing Real ? Its like COnFIRMING that they exist..and its a waste of convincing.
I'd rather convince myself that i DO have this inside...and that i NEED to do these things... ALSO, that FACING MY FEARS becomes SO MUCH MORE EXCITING than RUNNING... once you get THROUGH it? man...its Nooooothing. What a trip.... Makes you much stronger!
There's this guy.....Ralph Marston...boy is he enlightening...
"Courage is the commitment to do what you know is right. Courage arises when your integrity will not allow any other choice. Courage comes from following a purpose that goes beyond your own petty concerns. Because of that, courage gives far-reaching power and consequence to your actions. In the short term, courage can often appear foolish. In the long run, courage has the power to move the whole world in a positive direction. Courage asks much of you, yet it is not complicated and is always within your reach. Courage is truth put into action. In every moment, courage is there for you to choose. In every moment, courage is the choice that will fulfill the best of who you are."
so i say....lets face some things we haven't wanted to face...TODAY....we only have TODAY....until we get to "tomorrow"...if we're lucky.

Who I am and What I Stand For:
I am a Puerto Rican woman from Southern California...with a family background of NuYoricans and Islanders.. I grew up influenced by HIP HOP....brother was a dj...he influenced me a lot. I have an INTENSE LOVE for MUSIC...its the air I breathe. Performed in theater all my life...and am currently in pursuit of a career in the arts. I am a full flegged ARTIST...which means I am extreme...I am a VEHICLE OF EMOTIONS...ready to jump for JOY at a "10"...or get angry at a "10"...maybe cry at a "10" or sulk at a "10"...lol....my spectrum is either 1-3 or 8-10...there's no in between. lol. I am extremely sensitive to things in the community...
i don't feel like rambling much more...its about that time...but basically, I've got some real work to do in this world.
i'm here to serve others...and share my soul...
the people i've got in my heart--waiting to be helped by me (in its due time) are those that are forgotten by many.
the youth elderly incarcerated artists
...so that's it for right now...because i'm just setting up...and well, I'm going to figure out how i want to utilize this...
