Living to be Known:Do You Know What You Want? (follow-up blog)
Do you know what you want?
I, want, to be, HAPPY. I do not want to be sad. I want to be wealthy. I do not want to be poor. I want to be loved. I do not want to be lonely. I want to travel. I do not want to feel lost. I want to know more. I want to do more. I want to see more. I want to be more….
Any of these things sound familiar? I hope so
It is common to hear some of these statements when you pay attention to what we are communicating. We all have basic common needs for life right? Is it possible we have common wants? Of course it is! We see life differences, we feel emotions, we read, we listen, we watch, we hear, we imagine, we think, we do and we tell of all the many things in life we have YET to experience. Therefore we want!
I think about a few things:
1. What we have
2. What we need
3. What we want
4. What we don’t
I have and I need and I want and I don’t want…. Now is there more. Yes, but…
The question is: Do you know what you want?
Can I tell you about this question I’ve asked a little more?
The things I want in general, I believe others want in general. So please don’t think that I don’t care if that is what you are thinking. I want to know more. I want you to think a little more in detail. Peeling back layers of “the Want Onion”… hahaha, the want onion. I just made that up. Lol.
Here’s what I mean. Day in and day out I think we express and communicate common themes of what we want. I mean, we only dream of how good things can get here on earth to the point that we are one step from heavenly. But we don’t truly believe that will happen here, on this planet, in our life time…do we? Maybe? But that’s not the focus. I said all that to say that YOU communicate and express daily what you want in and out of this life. You don’t just want to be happy, you want to Everything!
Let’s simplify. I know I can go on tangents. OK.
You don’t just want to travel. You want to travel to a place that has water. Not just a place with water. A beach. Not just any beach, but one with soft sand. Not public but …. You get me? We don’t just want. We want in detail. And that is ok.
There is only so much we can control. And we should want things that we can. Some say these are called plans, goals, dreams and desires. But those are different. I just want you to think about and decide what you want in short; today or this week. Because want rushes in in a moment and sometimes sits, and sometimes, when the want changes, we still hold on. So I’m not speaking to the BIG WANTS in your life but the small wants; the wants that means more to us. If today you want to sing, then sing. And if today you want to cry, then find a little time to cry. And if today you want to laugh, do it. If today you want to travel, write it down and everyday decide what else you want that travel to be like until you know what you want.
It’s just a simple way to go, remember: (Have, Need, Want, Don’t). Do you just want to be happy? What’s behind that? You want to stop procrastinating, you want to argue less? You want a better job. Assess all that it takes to get what you want, consider the cost and then when you are sure, move forward to accomplish it. It’s better than thinking we want something only find that we do not actually want it.

(Thinking About It Pt.3)... A Look into Perspective
Today is Dec 30th, 2015. My Moms Birthday!!! Happy birthday mom you look beautiful as ever. You know Black don't crak and you been looking the same since the day you gave birth to me. For that I thank You. And for a portion of my great looks. I couldn't have done it without you!
My favorite day of the month. I read Proverbs 30, which is my favorite Proverb. But it's also the last post date for "Perspective."
You may or may not have been following the music along with each blog entry post but that is OK. If you went on youtube and searched for "Valet Del Roy", you'll find me. What's even more exciting is all the new content I have coming for you in this coming year. New music, poetry, short stories, blogs and video... Ohhhh I think we're going to have some fun.
Thinking About It is the last and final track piece to "Perspective", a music project I composed over a few years of my young adult life from the years 2007 - 2012. We don't need to go into further detail now because I have so much to share. It's a loaded verse ain't it. Please Enjoy.
I hope you find some time to check out the full project on YouTube or Soundcloud. Look out for a special blog tomorrow before we kick off 2016 in full effect. I love yall. Thanks for reading and letting me get into you life. Peace and blessing.

(State of Confusion)... a Look into Perspective
In my teen years, I was absolutely wrapped in my own sight. I'm about 87% sure. Not because I have actual figures of data, just what I've experienced in my life. I wouldn't say that I had tunnel vision, but I would say that my vantage point ruled over others. I had been completely involved in a lot of the mess that comes with adolescence: The attitude, the dating, the looseness, the recklessness, the fights, the drugs, The EVERYthing!
So late in 2007, when I was "pursuing God", or whatever that means to a human, who never really finds God, but rather finds that God reveals Himself at some point in time in some kind of way, which I DO NOT understand...
Yea, some time in 2007, when I began to become involved in various church ministries, the years flew by. In fact, by 2009, I felt that maybe the last five or six years had gone by without me noticing some particular details.
I hadn't watched TV for some time, I hadn't listened to the radio or any mainstream music for the most part, and I had been so involved in what I could see and find in "my view" that as the culture was shifting, I was present, but not conscious.
Needless to say, once I hit the explorer button again I saw something. It was alarming! It was offensive! It was "two-thousand-nine and beyond!" And what had become normal and the new acceptable really confused me. Of course this is nothing new in life, the World, the U.S.A., my city, your city and so on...
So what was I to do. Suddenly I had recognized that there would soon be a battle coming. One between "Christian culture" (whatever that was suppose to be in my view versus anyone else.) "Modern Culture" (the socially normal and acceptable by way of media outlet/focus/drive) and my conviction. Yes, My Conviction. It battles with the faith and those who are part of it as well as those who are not... So I wrote a song.
Because I felt like the world and I were in a similar place... a "State of Confusion."

(Choose To)... A Look into Perspective
Have you had that moment in your young life when you really seem to grab hold of something you felt you could really push for?
I've had a few.
I was between 20-21 years old and I did not care. I was experiencing "the way" of living as a newly rededicated Christian. "Christian", which I felt was a step past, "believer", in the sense that I would now practice "Christian values and principles" in my day to day living. WHAT A TASK, right?
Here I am, walking around, trying to be, "Bold for Christ!"
And,..honestly....
...I was just working too hard at it. I shouldn't have been such work. Always "making sure" I was "fitting God in there" and more importantly, Christ.
What's with this orthodox huh? As far as I've come to see it. Christianity is pretty unorthodox. So I spit this little rhyme.
Now I'm 28. I see that, "way", a little differently now. I love the unorthodox. It's much simpler.
