The Goodbye That Becomes a Gateway
“You know the good Lord stay up to something…” Sometimes I look back at different points in my life, and it is as if I’ve been given a superpower to step outside of my body, where I can view myself from a lens I don’t naturally possess. I see how much I can transform in a […]
Rerouted.
“Send me, I will go.” Isaiah 6:8 – Also, I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Who shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. A little less than three years ago, as a 23-year-old, I brainstormed this exact title and blog post, but it […]
Breaking Through the Dirt
“Dreams of me gettin’ shaded under a money tree…” It’s been months since I last published a post, and I wouldn’t take offense if any of my avid readers were annoyed with me. Within my mind, I intend to write, but it’s almost as if God instructs me to pause my thoughts and live my life […]
Lose the Dead Weight
“Cut the bullsh-t out, I’m Edward with the scissors…” Before I speak on anything else, I have to address the elephant in the room, which is essentially that I abandoned my blog for over half a year.

Get Out Yo’ Head
“When you gonna stop thinking and start being?” NEW YORK CITY. The concrete jungle. A place where people of all nationalities, ethnicities, and creeds are simply trying to make it.

It’s On Me.
“The power to change your life is within you.” For the last couple of months, I’ve been in a state of questioning, wondering, and wrapping my head around my life experience and who I am. Not that I have no idea whatsoever, but I wanted to create a new identity based on my updated ways […]
Study the Board
“Pray for me, God’s got a play for me…” Recently, different conversations and experiences have been drawing me back to my childhood interests and I’ve been enjoying it. In my younger years, I was heavily connected to my artistic side. As I have gotten older, I put it on the back burner because I was […]
2022: The Year of the Moment
“Free your mind and everything will follow.” People at the beginning of each year typically have all these goals they want to achieve. Losing weight, making more money and other reasonable desires find their way onto many’s New Years’ Resolutions lists. I too, have goals that I set out to accomplish this year but I […]
Sometimes, You Really Don’t Know…
“What do I know?” Now working from home, I aim to utilize my time more efficiently, due to the ability it grants me of getting high-priority things done. One morning about a month or two ago, I woke up early to do some tasks around the house, and a flood of thoughts came to my […]
A Shift in Focus
“If you want it, you gotta see it with a clear-eyed view.” This period of my life feels synonymous with the experience of riding a rollercoaster. I have moments where I hit this absolute high, feeling infectiously positive and like I could take over the whole world. But then there comes this sharp drop where […]
