The Great Redemption

The writing is on the wall. Each morning that my eyes open brings forth a deeper sense of clarity, and the direction that my life is taking seems less daunting by the second. It seems as though one of the biggest common fears amongst humanity is the unknown. We fear what we don’t know, and in pursuing this dream of mine, with all of it’s twists and turns, it has been my ability to move forward fearlessly that has set me apart from the masses. Fear of public humiliation, of failing, cripples the average person, yet I’ve become calloused to the associated embarrassment, and my thick skin proves to be valuable more each passing day. When deciding to pause the recording of my triple album, RAW, alongside the filming of the various film projects I’m producing, to focus solely on the online school, it was with the understanding that there are levels to achievement. Many times, throughout this blog, I’ve said that hindsight is 20/20, and it seems that every move I’ve ever made, for all the confusion it caused to those around me who didn’t see the vision, has finally come full circle, and created sense and structure from chaos. Granted, there are moments where I, myself, can not understand why I’m driven to do certain things. In those moments, I remind myself that there is something greater than me that I am directly connected to, and it is guiding me through the thick fog I sometimes feel around me. But when I put my trust in it, and keep pushing, I can feel the power within me grow, separating me from the crowd. For anyone who has read this story of mine, you know what today is, and what it would’ve meant to me in a different lifetime. But in the early morning hours, the darkness of my room did nothing to sway my drive, or my focus. For what was, I feel nothing. For what is, and will be, here goes everything.
