“SEASON'S CAN’T BE CONTROLLED”

BY AL KING

You can’t force what will be because what will be......simply will be. I don’t care how much you attempt to pressure things into the universe things will happen divinely. Am I saying that prayers are not answered? Not at all….. There are just absolutely no accidents in the universe and every result is a calculated journey. I know some of you are experiencing a strong desire to make some things happen through your sheer determination and may possibly feel things are not moving quick enough. That is totally fine but there are seasons for every seed to sprout. It’s very hard to accept that realization in why something may not be coming into manifestation when you need results NOW. Keep in mind that a process will always come before the results.

Quite essentially, your patience and respect for that process is what will invoke the growth of that seed. I don’t care how much you attempt to rush it, if it’s not time, it’s just not time. Life gets in the way as we work to keep our essentials in place, bills paid and the rigorous demands of being responsible create an emotion all on their own. We’re always looking to find stability and peace in what we know as ……..living.  All of this is heightened when we are responsible for others in our role as providers. I wanted to share these words with you because sometimes we need to hear an echo of what we already know…. So allow things to move in alignment without fretting and remain poise as your season arrives! 

“WE SPEND MORE TIME HONORING WHO’S AGAINST US THAN WHO’S FOR US”

BY AL KING

You see it constantly……Haters are supported more than actual supporters.  Those that will do everything in the best interest of a person are treated like the enemy and outcast. There’s so much wrong with that picture but it’s going on right now as you read this post. Honestly, a lot of us have no idea who our allies are but can tell you in a heartbeat who’s against us. It’s a concentrated force that is sustained for what doesn’t help us in any way or form. To make matters worse they are automatically attracted to what inflicts pain on them. People tend to make it their extreme mission in wasting so much energy in honoring who’s against them instead of who’s for them.  What does that mean? It simply means that you have chosen to only focus on the energy that is non-complimentary that has stemmed from sources that are obviously against you. 

Identification is a blessing when you are able to obtain clarity in realizing who isn’t for you. What you should do is take that affirmation and simply keep it moving. Instead, what most of you will do is find yourself pouring all of this focus into it knowing it doesn’t help you. Meanwhile, you fail to invest in who’s for you. Again, this self-inflicted confusion is something you must disconnect from immediately.  As you know, whatever you give life to with your energy and focus will become your life—present and future. A natural part of life is that people will live and die, come and go. You’re not going to mesh with everyone that you come across but what I do know is that you will have tons of people that you will.

Keep those that are complimentary in your life and remove those that aren’t!

"STRENGTH"

BY AL KING

 Someone, somewhere is going through something. We are all faced with something that will test our stamina so don’t feel special, it’s a natural process of living out your journey and walk. When your stamina is tested, you can be a conqueror or a defeated entity. To be a winner in the end it requires the workings of reaching deep inside our core. What you will find is the tool and necessary ingredient that we all possess………STRENGTH. If you fail to do so and succumb to the feat one has underestimated the power of this force that lies inside each of us. That Strength is must be permissible to work its capabilities and everything will align in your favor. Be clear, adversity and obstacles are designed to be a stepping stone and test. They are not to be treated as permanent conditions or things that are intended to destroy your destiny. I implore that you use your will, faith and strength to capture the blessings that have been tailored just for you—without any discretion.  

Find your Strength, remain Strong!

"BEING ENGAGED FOREVER"

WAKE UP LADIES!

A lot of women have accepted being engaged for what has turned into an eternity when in fact they are really ENTANGLED. By agreeing to something that has not been inclusive of love and good intentions some women have resorted to just settling and lowering their standards. Years and years go by and the only thing to show is a ring that has only fulfilled a public facade of being taken and claimed. It’s not easy to accept the reality that this marriage will most likely never take place because every year there is a glimmer of hope—but at some point it must be done. Engagements......in the times we reside in are what I deem as a suppressed and stalled act by Men. A ploy that he uses to control his woman and keep her under control which is an easy feat because all she may want is to say that she has a ring. As a man, I want to let you women know something about men. Men will straighten up in a heartbeat once they feel they are no longer a priority. Everything in this world passes through a woman so your power is indescribable. Sit firm in your standards and don’t compromise them just to not be alone. In life, what we accept is what we will have to expect.

Most of the time, these engagements transpire from ultimatums and conditions which are usually provoked by an act of infidelity in the relationship or the birth of a child.  As a result, he’s then forced to make this verbal promise that he has no intention of actually executing. He is on one page and she’s on another. Again, it is even questionable if marriage is really her goal because she will assume this position of fiance for YEARS. Statistically, it is said that engagements usually last 16 months.  Is the title of engagement and a ring a form of accomplishment and self-gratification that she only desires?  Could it just be the fancy of being called fiance rather than girlfriend?   Today, we are losing touch of the importance of marriage because we are focused on separations and divorce. Contributing to the bleak outlook is the ongoing cycle of non-commitment.  Also, there’s no dating, courting and taking the time to know a person that we have made a point of interest.

“RACE vs ETHNICITY….. THE CONFUSION”

Race; Each of the major divisions of humankind, having distinct physical characteristics.

Ethnicity;The fact or state of belonging to a social group that has a common national or cultural tradition.

Specifically, inside the Black RACE and Culture there’s a constant act of inferior segregation because we can’t differentiate what race and ethnicity means. The lack of understanding the true meaning of each continues to create some confusion which results in pushing the race further apart. The definition of the two is very much similar and can bring so much different interpretations from one person to the next—creating debate. I do believe that in each race people are driven to disassociate themselves from their own race but emphasize their identities through their ethnicity's. The stereotypes, prejudices and stigmas are also contributing factors that add on to these misinterpretations that widely affect the Black culture…….

"OWNING YOUR DESTINY"

At some point......YOU have reached that point where “enough is enough.” Tired of what cards you have chosen to play with has possibly left you frustrated. What we must understand is that nothing happens just because you are flustered with circumstances that you have chosen to accept. To correct it all, one must change it with actions that will not reflect the acceptance of complacency and comfort as an excuse. You must begin with a fresh and different mindset by cutting off all non-complimentary components and inheriting new attitude and approach. One thing for certain is that if you don’t make it happen for yourself, I doubt if someone is going to place something that will help you right in your lap. Step up and stand out by owning your destiny so that you claim what is rightfully yours and “grab the bull by the horns” which will in turn only build pride and appreciation…….

“People Love what HATES them and Hate what LOVES them”

 

Interesting to say the least........what we need in our lives is exactly what we elect to resent and disregard by pushing it to the side. As a reaction, what’s for our betterment is treated as if it’s the cause of the problem. We continue to embrace and cherish what’s non-complimentary and what may have contempt toward us. Unfortunately, none of it adds up and it’s very conflicting but we live for the unnecessary imbalances. With Hate and Love being the most powerful forces of the emotional source—they are what we will endure in one facet or another as we live out each moment. As confusing as it may sound, people will love what hates them and hate what loves them in their relationships, friendships and overall life experiences. We tackled this issue with much perspective on our latest segment of LET IT BE KNOWN LIVE RADIO, check out the podcast here: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/letitbeknownlive/2012/08/02/people-love-what-hates-them-and-hate-what-loves-them
