"The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice.  Ironically, the virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed."
'It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are'
NEVER JUDGE SOMEONE BY THE OPINION OF ANOTHER

Changes

Was just thinking the other day how my blog has changed.

When I started this blog I was very into urban music and this was to share music that I appreciate with a wider audience of people.  It was created to speak about artists and my favorite music as well as TV and cinema. I have always been a opinionated person and they were also meant to be added into my blog.

But as I have grown, I felt my blog has grown with me.  Music no longer has that importance in my life that it once did and I don't think music is what it was when I was younger.  It no longer has any meaning it did when I was younger, it is now just a way to make money and I don't really see any artists that are trying to educate you.  Hip Hop has been hijacked by pop culture killing its roots, so has soul music and artists trying to make it seem to sell their souls which I do not appreciate.

 As I have grown and moved on with my life I have understood there is much more to life than partying every night of the week and living for the weekend.  Music I feel sells you a material lifestyle and gets you to think that material wealth is far more important that the beautiful souls around you.

Life has so much more to offer and the lifestyle that is sold to us via TV and celebrities which is not achievable and stops us from educating ourselves.  There is so much history, current affairs and life lessons that we can learn from, actual interaction with people and being in places where you can actually hear each other when you speak.

My blog is now covered with quotes that I have read and current issues that I have felt passionate about.  I feel trying to increase my knowledge of my faith has helped me become a better person.

I am not being judge-mental of peoples lives because everyone is different, I am speaking from my personal opinion.
