Uncontained: Is your love holy? Does it break the sky when you abandon self-interest? The earth, a witness, opens her arms to welcome the valiant sun, her dearest. Until the veil of billowing doubts and pride are torn in a moment of fearlessness, love will break through celestial restraints to kiss earth's mountains, hills, and wondrous plains. Is your love holy? If so, its light will be wild, unceasing, without end... your light will be uncontained.

The Golden Compromise: There is a moment when a decision emerges, whether or not to unveil your inner being to external observers. A peculiar feeling of chaos surfaces, if we reveal too much we lose order, but if do not lessen our grip and relinquish control than we will never truly live. We've had our trust broken the last time we opened our hearts, we already felt the consequence. But remember there is also a hidden potential for connection, for comfort, euphoria, purpose. The compromise is exchanging safety and control for a moment of being alive.

A Light Worth Shining: There are days when the world will keep you a secret. Frequently placed within the anguish of concealment, your radiance is shackled in the shadows. Yet the purpose, the calling, has composed every vessel of you to fight and hold on. Someday the light will break through, someday the flood will erode the chains. Someday truth will overcome mediocrity thereon. Please, do not give up your light, I promise every brilliant photon within you is worth the wait.

New Song: Convictions / Needs by Wade M. Adakai (freestyle)

This morning, my wife and I were talking about our education and career. It can be overwhelming not knowing what the next year holds, whether its struggling to make ends meet or if doors open to climb the ladder of opportunity. Regardless of the circumstances, one thing to keep in mind is "we're not done." Once you give in to hopelessness, as one man stated, "It's a long road home."
