Welcome to #KLowInspires

Almost a year ago I remember being fussed at by an elder in my family for things my other family members were posting on their social media accounts. For one, it stunned me because this elder doesn't even have not one social media account and tells people often they don't want one. People are always telling them what's happening on social media. For two, I had to remind said elder that these people were grown and could post whatever they wanted on their social media accounts because it was their accounts. As I was having a conversation with a friend she stated how she had told her significant other not to post their future kid(s) on social media. I relayed the conversation I had earlier with my elderly family member to her, and she replied they are old school and you know they don't believe in telling people your personal business. This brings me to the point of this blog, and like I told her that's the problem we have now in our society, too many people are s...

So, I had a conversation with a close friend of mine about how it hurts my feelings when I do things for others but they aren't there when I need them. Or how they do things that I feel go against our friendship. I made myself a promise from now on not to let the actions of others hurt my feelings. I'm going to be more in control of my feelings and how I let others actions affect me. A couple of days later my friend texted me saying she was tired of always doing for others but they were never available when she needed them. I totally understood where she was coming from. Sometimes we give so much of ourselves to others to the point when we need it, no one is there. It's tiring and draining. I sat down and analyzed this and it's just who we (my friend and I) are. Sometimes we give so much of ourselves to help those in need or those who can't help themselves even when we are in a place of needing help ourselves. In my time of meditation over this issue I decided...

As we get ready to ride the wave into 2018, open your mind up to new possibilities, new opportunities, and new friendships. I'm sure by now most of y'all have written your New Year resolutions for 2018. Don't just write them, make a plan and execute them. Leave fear and disappointment in 2017. Everything and everyone is not meant for you. If at first you don't succeed, dust yourself off and try again. If it fails again, it might not be in God's plan for you. It's hard to accept the fact of what you want in your life if it's not meant for you. Write down your goals. Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.' And if you believe that God only wants the best for you, you will not let fear, disappointment, or rejection get in your way of life. These are just emotions we have to go through. Think about how Adam and Eve hid f...
