I haven't posted in quite some time... Not that my life has been uneventful...
Perhaps one day, I will learn to process the goings on in my life a little faster.

Anyone who knows me intimately, as it pertains to the creative side of music, knows that I have long been a fan of both Sting and Stevie Wonder... Especially as both tend to write some of the most interesting music, both lyrically and melodically.

And while this song has proven to be one of the most thematically, in terms of lyrics...
It remains one of my favorites.

Stevie does this song no small justice.


Thanks to Claude V. McKnight III (of Take6 fame) for posting on his facebook profile.

What Moves You?

I was chatting, via gmail, with a friend who I respect and appreciate. She made a statement on one of her social network profiles that said something like, "I want LOVE to come first".

I thought it was a curious statement to make, so I IM'd her for some clarification.

My paraphrase of her response goes something like this, "Love should be the thing that moves you to action, and if this is the case in all things, then you are on the right track" to living a positive life.

It seems some many things (greed, power, pursuit of pleasure) move/motivates people to take action these days...

What moves you?

Man, I Appreciate You...

Today, I will take a moment to express my appreciation for the men God has placed in my life, throughout my life, to provide an example of leadership and manhood. Whether they have been more father-like or brother-like, they have helped and continue to help me, personally, grow and live, live up to the gifts and blessings that have been given to me.


For words of wisdom, encouragement, and admonition. For spiritual leadership, and prayers, and sermons. For allowing me to see, on a personal level, in your words and actions, what it means to be a man.
May our Creator and Redeemer, Jesus Christ, bless you in accordance with His mercy and Grace, to the glory of God the Father. Thanks be to HIM, who is the Father of us all

Mothers...

To every woman who has influenced the life of a child (yours or someone else's) for the better... To every woman who has supported a child (minor or adult) emotionally, financially, mentally, spiritually... With hugs and kisses and smiles and tears and prayers...

Thank You.

Wanna Go Out?

The next time I go out with someone, I think I'll make them read this article from my friends Brian and Paula's Blog 

Confession Friday

I've been accused of being a man who lacks integrity.

To be honest, I've had far too many lapses, and done more than my share of dirt... Even when I've told myself different.

Every human needs to be mindful and circumspect. None of us are immune to the ability to give in to evil thoughts (which lead to evil words and actions).

It helps if I remember this... So that when somebody treats me bad, I'm not inclined to treat them in some outrageous or intentionally vengeful manner.

This Is My Confession.

What's yours?
