I've always been a fan of Free from 106 & Park. I was sad and hurt when she was fired from the show and even more upset when I saw her at various events looking a fool. I guess now she's back on the good foot. She's on Russell Simmon's new site globalgrind.com and is even starting up her own blog through the site. I found a very profound poem written by Free that I wanted to share with the YGT readers. It's inspiring and motivational; which is something we all need in our lives right now. It goes to show that when you have a negative you can always turn it into a positive.
The poem's entitled: This Year
THIS YEAR I will remember that I choose and that I am chosen so I am exactly where I want and need to be at all times. THIS YEAR anything worth measuring at all by me will be measured as half full. THIS YEAR the well being of my future will drive my every move. THIS YEAR I come first, not selfishly but because I must come first in order to survive so that I can to do the work I am here to do. THIS YEAR I will take the time to appreciate and reflect on the past and maybe even dream of the future. But my main focus is on this moment, this year. THIS YEAR I will remember all the time and effort that others put in to me to make me who I am. And I will find the patience and the time to put effort into others who are striving for greatness. THIS YEAR is the beginning of something new and how I perform at this moment will set the stage for all my new beginnings THIS YEAR I will open up space in my life and heart for new and great things and people, at the same time I will limit the space I give to negative and potentially dangerous actions and acquaintances. THIS YEAR I will remember to feed my creative and spiritual needs more than I feed my ego, my greed and my stomach THIS YEAR I will use my gifts of humor and compassion to react in every situation‚ no matter how tough the situation is. THIS YEAR I will handle problems‚ with an indifferent attitude‚ instead of ignorance and anger because if it were anything positive I would care about the outcome and it wouldn't be a problem it would be a ‚ welcome issue. THIS YEAR I start again and I am so thankful and humbled...you'll see. THIS YEAR.
It's 2009, year for move making!
I don't know about you but, I'm making moves as we speak.
