"Forever"

When "we" start to believe that "IT" will not last, just perhaps we have "OUR" collective focus on the wrong thing.

The only thing that lasts for all eternity is our eternal GOD. So, if "OUR" focus does not reside within HIM, why are we surprised that "IT" did not last?

If there are only one set of directions, then why do we insist upon reinventing the wheel and the direction in which it travels?

If brushing and flossing our teeth throughout the day, every day affords us sustainable oral hygiene, then it makes perfect sense for us to brush and floss our teeth throughout the day, every day.

The same holds true for Prayer.

The only thing that lasts "Forever," is the Love of GOD.

Focus on the right thing so that "IT" can and WILL, afford us a sustainable Life, through the Love of GOD, that will last, "Forever."

"Blip"

Sometimes we expel so much energy, allowing ourselves to get so worked up at what turns out to be nothing but small potatoes.

The energy of two entities ping ponging back and forth to one another with neither wanting to relinquish the title of "Last Word."

Then there are those that bring that "everything's a tragedy" type of energy into your surroundings and if you're not too careful, you will wind up mourning right along with them.

I have come to the realization that my attention needs to be handed out proportionately. Therefore, I need to define the severity or lack thereof before drawing a conclusion as to who and what gets my attention and for how long.

Always decipher what is presented to you. It will either be a "tragedy" or a "Blip." Most of the time it will be a "Blip" exaggerated as something more, hence the need for YOU to make the determination as to what it truly is and how much attention that you ultimately decide to give to it.

Deflate the purported "tragedies" within your Life and put them in their "Blipping" place. Afterall, they are probably just exaggerated and add up to nothing more than a "Blip" that would not otherwise even register on your radar.

Now go reinvest that time and energy that you just saved, compliments of your successful ability to decipher between the two.

That extra time that you just saved is kind of like that $20 you found in your pants pocket while doing the laundry. Now go find something to do with it!

Preface your participation with a single question: "Is this a tragedy or is this a "Blip?" Then proportionately take it from there.

Love Always.

"More"

We always want what we do not have and then once we get it, we generally do not even know what to do with it. That is the exact point in time where our "appreciation" appears to fall by the wayside.

We first need to understand what we have, what it means to us, the role that it plays in our lives and the impacts on and TO us should we one day no longer have it there FOR us.

It is kind of hard to fathom the 100% permanent removal of someone or something from our lives until it or they are actually gone. One of those experiences that cannot be lived vicariously.

So, before you ask for "More," try taking inventory of what you already have. You might not actually need "More." Just the opposite, you might actually be in need of "less."

"Don't let your eyes get bigger than your belly," Momma would say. Until you truly know what you have, don't even BOTHER with asking for "More."

Love Always.

"Visibility"

When I was in it, I couldn't see the forest for the trees. When I stepped out of it, I began to see peripherally. You cannot readily identify the who, what, where and why's, when you constantly see things only through your eyes.

Sometimes you need to step OUT in order to bring yourself IN.

We don't necessarily need to see the END in order for "us" to BEGIN.

We just merely need to see beyond the tips of our noses and the forest for the trees, not forgetting the "thanks you's," the "may I's," "excuse me's" and the "please."

A small token of appreciation for my relentless dedication as I pace my way through this constant transformation.

I am most "Grateful" for all of the opportunities before me.

I am both honored and humbled by my enormous role and responsibilities.

May everything good that is ever done, be multiplied exponentially.

May every Prayer that I utter stretch from where I am to the Heavenly.

What GOD took Corey out of proved to be worthy of a testimony born of a test, to conclude the only fact, that I am truly Blessed.

Preparation was the solicitation after having rid myself of all stagnation and procrastination.

Thank GOD for taking me OUT, so that HE could bring me back IN.

Thank GOD for the four seasons, the foliage of the Fall. Right in the middle of the forest for the trees, I can now see it all. And even though change brings us OUT of one and IN to the next, the foliage allows it to still be beautiful in the process.

Whether you can see the forest for the trees or you are lost within, Pray for peace and allow the process to begin.

You might not understand the who, what, where and why's, but when it is all said and done, you will indeed become wise. Wise to the grandest of all affordability. Thank you LORD GOD for my sanity as well as my "Visibility."

"Be"

It is past time that you own up to your full potential. Not because others mandate it of you, but because GOD inserted it within you and you have blindly chosen to do nothing with it.

It is not anyone's fault but yours should you continue to wallow in pity, swim in the shallow end where your feet can actually touch the bottom, create hollow goals, all the while attempting to live up to your best.

Do not live because a Blog told you to. Live because you owe it to yourself to. And since we are unable to live in death, we only have a single option, and that is to do it while we are alive and able to.

When the Spirit of the LORD is upon you, it matters not who attempts to shun you.

It is past time that you remove everyone else's "Me" from your Life so that you can start to "Be" within your very own Life.

Because when the Spirit of the LORD is upon you, it matters NOT who attempts to shun you, in your quest to "Be."

Smile and for many, the first time in your Life, just "Be."

"Passionate"

When I wake up in the morning, I'm already thinking about the next subject that I am going to write about.

As I give thanks for the Blessings of yet another day, I am simultaneously seeking inspiration so that I can in turn inspire.

I write as I'm brushing my teeth.

I create as I'm getting dressed.

I am committing to memory what I have authored in my mind as I drive to work.

As I walk to lunch, I am allowing myself to be inspired.

As I travel home, the inspiration continues.

When I prepare dinner, I am also cooking up the thoughts of the day.

I create as I'm getting undressed.

I write as I'm brushing my teeth.

Before I go to sleep at night, I'm already thinking about the next subject that I am going to write about.

As I give thanks for the Blessings of the conclusion of yet another day, I am simultaneously seeking inspiration so that I can in turn inspire.

You see, if you are not "Passionate" about what it is that you do, then chances are you won't get anything done.

You need to live, breathe, eat, sleep and do everything that you are "Passionate" about.

You don't give up because it becomes hard. That's the very reason why it should be harder for you to give up.

You gotta be "Passionate" about BEING "Passionate" and what ultimately fuels your motivational DRIVE. Otherwise, you'll always be stuck in NEUTRAL.

With that said, do you REALLY think that you're "Passionate?"

You better be! Your competition is...LET'S GO!

"Grateful"

Yesterday,
Today,
Tomorrow.

What I learned Yesterday, prepared me for what I know Today, that now affords me the experience to move forward with Tomorrow.

Even though my little brother did not live long, I am "Grateful" that I was and able to hear him call me his big brother.

When all I had to eat was butter and sugar on top of my rice, I remember being "Grateful" that my Mother made sure that I did not go to bed hungry.

When I met my biological father two days prior to graduating high school, I might not have been then, but today, I am "Grateful" that we had the opportunity to meet.

Although I no longer have my Mother, I am "Grateful" for all of the times that we shared great conversation that still resonates with me to this day.

Even though I did not grow up privileged, I am "Grateful" for Grace and Mercy allowing me the Blessing of growing up.

I may only hear from them when they need something, but I am "Grateful" for my entire family.

Initially, I did not know if I would ever have any, but GOD Blessed me with two wonderful "Children" (http://allthebestallthetime.blogspot.com/2010/03/children.html). And for that reason, I am wonderfully "Grateful."

I may have the worst commute with the shortest distance, but I am so very "Grateful" that I am employed and able to feed my family.

Our new place of Christian worship might be under construction, but I am "Grateful" that I STILL have a place to go and Praise the LORD.

As I was finding my way and learning my purpose in Life, I am "Grateful" that my LORD and Savior saw me for what HE purposed me for and not what I thought I should have been.

I am eternally "Grateful" for HIS patience and understanding.

I may have fallen down Yesterday,
But I got right back up Today,
And GOD is steadily preparing me for Tomorrow.

I am forever "Grateful" for HIM providing me with all of my needs.

Because of that, I am "Grateful."

If all of my "Yesterday's" gave me "Today" and all of my "Today's" give me "Tomorrow," then I am truly "Grateful."

What were you "Grateful" for Yesterday?

What are you "Grateful" for Today?

What will you be "Grateful" for Tomorrow?

What I learned yesterday, prepared me for what I know today, that now affords me the experience to move forward with tomorrow.

Yesterday,
Today,
Tomorrow.

I am "Grateful."

"Transparency"

In the last few years of my Life I have made some pretty radical changes. It is like just waking up one morning, one day and realizing that "I am not who I have been portraying to be." And it is not that you have intentionally been deceitful to yourself or anyone else for that matter. No, it is not that at all.

You have been convicted within yourself that it is time to do better for yourself and by yourself and everything that you now know needs to change.

We have become so content with ourselves that we blindly accept ourselves just because it is US that is the subject of the matter. Until we wake up that one morning...

Sometimes we realize that we no longer "like what we see." Sometimes we realize that we are not "all that we can be." Sometimes we realize that we are doing everything for everyone else and not doing enough for "ME."

My transformation came in phases that in hindsight were wonderfully crafted from on High: customized, communicated and delivered to Corey who was anywhere but THERE, listening to anything but THAT and doing everything but THIS.

If you know how good GOD is, then you are wonderfully familiar with all of the aforementioned. Should you not know how good GOD is, then you still have the wonderful opportunity to learn all about the aforementioned.

You have to crawl before you walk and every little milestone is nothing short of a celebration for the preparation that is already underway, even if you are/were unaware of what was happening, as it was happening, right before your very eyes. I did not get it until I started to get it. And if you still do not get it, just live a little longer, you will.

That person that you had been impersonating was not even a good method actor, but an untrained and unskilled performer at best. It is right then and there that we must step out (on Faith), step up (our game), step on (fewer toes), step back (to re-evaluate ourselves), step in (to our new skin) and step forward (one foot in front of the other) as we move towards "Progression" (http://allthebestallthetime.blogspot.com/2010/03/progression.html).

Whatever phases your transformation chooses to come in, do not ignore it, yet embrace it. Allow the Spirit to lead as you humbly follow the new direction for your new Life. Unless of course, the perfection within your Life requires zero interference.

After Corey started following the Spirit, I learned the significance of living a Life of "Transparency." I no longer need to hide myself, my past, my anything, because I am new in every phase of my Life.

I am a new Corey! And whether marginally or exceptionally, that advanced reciprocity in the form of "Transparency," pays for what has yet to even be purchased, borrows not, lives for HIM and Loves in the latest and greatest version of Corey.

How could I not share in what has been bestowed upon me, in the form of "Transparency?" Rhetorical.

If you really want to live Life free, then I strongly encourage you to live a Life of "Transparency."

"Progression"

A good, dear friend of mine that I have known for quite a number of years absolutely HATES stagnant water. I remember one time she walked into the kitchen, looked into the sink and saw either a pot, pan or a container, something with stagnant water in it and she about flipped her lid. I thought it was one of the funniest things that I had ever seen. But, she was dead serious!

It wasn't until after she went into great detail about the dangers of "stagnancy," in particularly water, that I began to appreciate her disdain for it.

You see, you cannot begin to fathom the reasoning, thoughts and rationale of a person, that is until you actually sit down, listen and hear them out. There is a reason for their being and a purpose behind their feelings and emotions relative to a person, place or thing, up to and including their disdain.

What my wonderful friend taught me that day was similar to what My Mother always reiterated to me, "an idle mind is the devil's workshop, Corey." Stagnancy is good for absolutely nothing. If it is not flowing, then it is not growing.

"Progression" is not an option, it is a lifetime commitment to do better, to be better, to do more, to avoid less, to explore, to discover, to remove, to uncover, to conceal no more.

My good, dear friend, I now understand why you about flipped your lid that day. Stagnancy is a detrimental inactivity that has been filed away in the history books and should be learned from in order to never repeat again.

GOD has Blessed me with a special group of people that I have been lucky to call my friends throughout my Life. And although our Life events have a tendency to not coincide with each others events, we always manage to come back into each others lives with stories of "Progression."

It wasn't just about that stagnant water. The water was representing the symptoms of stagnancy which include: odor, disease and lack of growth. In other words it stinks, it is contagious and it ain't going anywhere.

And that is just how some lives turn out if we are not too careful.

Remember: "If it is not flowing, then it is not growing."

If your academic studies aren't flowing, then you are not growing.

If your career path is not flowing, then it and you are not growing.

If your Prayer isn't flowing, then chances are your Blessings are not growing.

If your parenting skills are not flowing, then your kids are probably not growing.

If the water to your favorite plant is not flowing, then guess what? Your favorite plant is not growing.

If you are not CHALLENGING YOURSELF in a flowing capacity, then stagnancy will prevent you from growing.

Don't forget: "If it is not flowing, then it is not growing."

Growth is what "Progression" is all about.

Now get to flowing!

"Future"

Some people claim to know not what their "Future" holds for them. Perhaps it is because they choose to put their "Future" in someone else's hands? Now there's a thought to ponder!

Why would you, why do we, extend the decision-making power of our lives to those that do not rightfully own, nor should they, the keys to our "Future's" automobile?

When we relinquish ourselves to someone else, we should not then claim that they stole IT or US from WHO and WHAT we are and who and what we are supposed to be, who and what we are purposed for, in Life.

We need to hold ourselves accountable for not only what we say and do, but what we allow to happen to us, without attempting to say or do anything about it.

No one owes you anything in Life. You owe yourself! We owe ourselves to do right by ourselves and within the confines of the Blessing that we all share in, which is Life.

Do not hold someone else in contempt for misrepresenting YOU!

They should not have had the opportunity to represent YOU to begin with.

Who chooses "your" words better than you?

Who forms "your" thoughts better than you?

Who walks in "your" shoes better than you?

Who utters the sentences that are formed from those collection of words, created from those thoughts, that are experienced through "your" walk...better than YOU? No one!

The same holds true for your "Future." That is something that has been created, copywritten and patented for YOU.

With my name in calligraphy, a spot reserved JUST for me, that is what MY "Future" holds, for Corey.

Tell yourself the same: "With my name in calligraphy, a spot reserved JUST for me, that is what MY "Future" holds, for ____________.

Your "Future" is Yours! Now start participating in it!

"Element"

Go ahead and RIP that "security blanket" off of you right now!

I definitely believe in broadening your horizons, far beyond and way past your normal, typical, comfort zone.

Have you ever put yourself smack dab in the middle of a conversation that you were not well versed in? Did you sink or swim? Most of the time when we have to, we wind up swimming out of the rip currents that attempt to pull us out, exhaust and extinguish our relevance, our significance, our substance and our Deliverance. The majority want to see us drown.

But right in the thick of it all lies a perseverance that sees us through those difficult tasks with those impossible people and things. The uncomfortable becomes the new comfortable. And so it should!

We get so caught up, content and happy within our comfort zone that we feel so out of place once we venture outside of our "Element," even for a brief moment in time.

That "security blanket" never offered you much in the way of security to begin with. It was all a figment of your imagination, a hoax, a triumphant joke, that you were the "butt" of. But, no more!

No more laughing AT you only to hear them say that they are laughing WITH you. And since you weren't laughing at all, it wasn't funny anyway! Just a foolish attempt to insult your intelligence, disguised as humor.

So, step out of your "comfort" zone, expand your knowledge base, broaden those horizons and challenge yourself to be better than and not accepting of less than.

Step up to the plate, dive into that conversation and BEcome well versed in "Everything" that you never thought you could be or see yourself in.

Walk into that new layer of skin as if you just inserted the keys to your new home and you are about to walk through that door for the very first time, knowing that its all yours.

Supplement your achievements with additional accomplishments.

Learn something brand new today.

Purge what didn't work for you yesterday.

Give that "security blanket" your two week notice and resign from the false sense of worth that has been defined by others.

Yet instead, AUTHOR your own sense of worth that is defined by YOU.

Let no "Element" be uncomfortable anymore.

Smile when that highly touted opportunity decided to close it's door.

Don't wallow in pity, pick YOURSELF up off of the floor.

Don't turn a blind eye and a deaf ear (My Momma would say), choosing to simply ignore.

If the one in your neighborhood doesn't have it, then go to ANOTHER store.

Step out of your "Element," with every intent, to no longer be negligent, nor reticent, regardless of your predicament.

Smile in spite of and have a Blessed day ANYWAY!

As you begin to practice stepping out of your comfort zone, do REMEMBER that: "Even when you find yourself on the EXTERIOR of your "Element," you are still within the INTERIOR of GOD's Grace."

Now how's THAT for comfort? I can LIVE with that! And so should YOU!

"Everything"

Sometimes we will settle for anyone or anything, so long as we have someone or something, to be able to call our own.

Such a sad state of affairs when we bring ourselves down to be on the level of those that refuse to lift themselves up. It is not that they can't, it is just that they won't. And THERE, is where we nestle ourselves, right into their cracks and crevices, just to be able to say...

"An accident waiting to happen," my Mother would chime. I know that you can do bad all by your lonely, but thank GOD that there are two sides to EVERY coin.

The flip side to THIS coin is the fact that you have NOT chosen to settle for just anyone or anything just to have someone or something to be able to call our own. And as soon as you first make the decision to up the ante, that is exactly when you will be rewarded, generously and quite handsomely, I might add.

Since you know what THAT side of the coin has to offer, you now make sure to EMBRACE what THIS side of the coin has to offer. You are not even scratching the surface with respect to how it is going to be, because it will do nothing but continue to get better from here.

The detoxification process might prove to be arduous at times, but no one ever said that change was ever going to be easy. Have you ever tried to brush your teeth AFTER you eat breakfast when your entire Life you have been brushing your teeth BEFORE you ate breakfast? Or vice versa for that matter. Something so simple might prove to be otherwise. But, give it a try and let me know how it feels...

What we have is not all that there is for us, in Life.

Where we are is not the only place that we will ever will be, in Life.

Who we are becoming is all that we are supposed to be, in Life.

You held out, you hold up and the rewards are abundant and plentiful.

Remember the other side of that coin, to remind yourself of where you will not ever return to.

Take this side of the coin, "Everything" about it and BE.

And if "Everything" is what someone is to you, then your job is to make sure that they know it, by simply telling them.

..."Everything."

"Direction"

As a young lad, I had a great memory without my handy dandy Blackberry. In true to Life form, my "Children" (http://allthebestallthetime.blogspot.com/2010/03/children.html) also have pretty spectacular memories as well (especially whenever their Dad has promised them something to their liking).

As my kids and I are driving around, I am proud of their knowledge of where they are. To me it not only symbolizes where they are physically, but where they are mentally and Spiritually as well.

I ask them to navigate our route or path to our destination and although it may differ from the one that I would take or that they would individually take, they are able to offer up suggestions because I continuously make them aware of their surroundings.

By simply keeping them conscious of, they are never lacking the "Direction" that they need nor the instructions that they need to follow. It is all within the preparation process that they will one day follow, thus allowing them to continue down a path, not necessarily the same, nor the one of least resistance, but one of righteousness.

We can always stand to learn a lot from our "Children" that we can in turn recycle back to them.

Due to the initial change of course that I had to realize, my instructions changed and my "Direction" took on a brand new meaning. They give to me and in turn, I recycle back to them.

Outside of your normal surroundings, do you have a pretty good sense of "Direction" and where you're headed? I thought so too, until my "Children" altered my "Direction" and put me on a much better course.

Happy Birthday Princess!

"Children"

As soon as they were born, the rest of my Life was about to begin in the most spectacular, grandest fashion. Whatever I thought my Life was wound up being everything that it was not.

One day you look in the mirror to the realization that you no longer recognize who you are because you are no longer who you were.

Your thought process has evolved. You walk taller and stronger and now you know that you truly belong because you have one or some that believe in you.

You mature beyond your years and categorically deny all of your fears as their hopes, needs and wants rest squarely upon your shoulders.

They make you better, keep you honest and facilitate your ability to ALWAYS do your best.

They make you Smile and make you cry all the while they are showing you the depths of your own heart and the potential of how much you can actually Love.

The growth of your knowledge is as exponential as the daily tasks that are as unique as they are habitual.

Live long enough to have and raise your own and witness the results in the same manner that you would your very own "before" and "after" photos. You do not look the same, think the same, nor do you act the same. And we owe it ALL, to our "Children."

"Defeat"

Have you ever looked into someone's eyes...

One of the single most important goals in Life, within MY Lifetime, is to inspire those that need inspiration.

Motivate those that fall to procrastination (me included).

Positively influence the minds that wish to defy gravity.

Quell all of those moments of temporary insanity.

Listen to the Spirit, by HEARING it, every single time that it talks to me.

If the best offense is a good defense, then your level of motivation should be stuck on IN-TENSE!

Have you ever looked into someone's eyes...and witnessed their "Defeat?"

When people look into your eyes, do they see or witness YOUR "Defeat?"

Before it even materializes, change the outcome of your situation, so that you can overcome without hesitation and not succumb to "Defeat" in utter consternation.

So when they DO look into your eyes, they see "Defeat," at the hands of VICTORY!

Hallelujah!

"Credit"

In an economy that isn't bouncing back fast enough, your namesake, your reputation up to and including your "Credit" is all that you have, in order to sustain all that you need, for all whom you Love.

We all want "Credit" for all that we do. We all want "Credit" for all that we have done. We all need "Credit" to show that we can do it again. And we all need that "Credit" to INSPIRE us to do it all over again.

But sometimes too much "Credit" is disseminated for the wrong reasons. As a matter of fact, if it is not something done for the right reason, the wrong reason deserves zero "Credit" before, during or after the fact. "Negative Energy Multiplied by Zero" (http://allthebestallthetime.blogspot.com/2010/02/negative-energy-multiplied-by-zero.html) is how it should be dealt with.

The varying types of "Credit" are endless. You have prisoners that receive "Credit" for time served. Children that get extra "Credit" on their assignments and/or tests. Parents that want to receive "Credit" for overnight stays on their custody agreements and visitation schedules. Financial institutions that want to run your "Credit" before they elect to do business with you. And then you have the 3 "Credit" bureaus that provide those very financial institutions their own versions of what is called a "Credit" score and/or report that would subsequently indicate whether or not you are "Credit" worthy before they elect to do business or continued business with you.

Glory be to GOD!

You see, "Credit" means so very much to so many. And to think that once upon a time I had bad "Credit." Not just according to those financial institutions, but I had bad "Credit" according to GOD.
You see I had maxed out Life's "Credit" limit and could not even afford to pay my minimum balance on what I owed.

Glory be to GOD!

And then this Debt Consolidator came along named Jesus. HE forgave all of my debts, restored my "Credit," thus making me "Credit" worthy once again.

I said: "Glory be to GOD!"

Needless to say I cut up all of those "Credit" less cards and now only carry one. The one in which I carry is accepted no matter where I go. And should I ever happen upon an establishment that does not accept my renewed type of "Credit," then they do not deserve my business anyway.

I refuse to give the devil "Credit" for ANYTHING because the LORD GOD is EVERYTHING!

Glory be to GOD!

With the possibility of garnering no wrong answer, what does your "Credit" look like? Is it reputable? Can it sustain you and all whom you Love? More importantly, what does your "Credit" look like in the eyes of GOD?

I did say: "Glory be to GOD!"

"Credit" worthiness is the goal of your Debt Consolidator (Jesus). So, if you have not started yet, then it is time to get your "Credit" in order.

One more time: "Glory be to GOD!"

Forever!
