A Look Beyond the Lights

When something tragic happens to you sometimes you need time for yourself, or on the other hand you may have to throw yourself into work to distract you from what you really have to face. There are times it could be great because your creative juice can flow and it may bless the world. And at times you could drown in your sorrow and end up hurting yourself because you have no one to turn to, you just have to have the right people to uplift and steer you in the right direction. Kayne has been through a lot in the last 11 years from the death of his mother Donda West , from his first meltdown at the MTV music awards in 2009 , or the latest rant at his San Pablo concert this year. The question is what caused his melt breakdown?

In 2007 right after the release Graduation, Kanye's mother Donda passed away , West opened up about the tragic death of his mother Donda West in a interview with Q magazine in 2008 he unmasked that he felt responsible and accountable for her passing. This has influenced his music pattern from then to now currently where he only speak about his mother briefly in his lyrics like Clique' featuring Jay-z where he states that he went into deep depression when his mother passed , or FML on his current album where he talks aboutAsked by the magazine what in his life he has sacrificed for huge level of success, his response was his mother. He felt at that time if he never moved to California, his mother would have still been alive. He never really went into great detail in any interview about why he felt this way, but as a son who loves his mother I understand, because your mother is the first woman you ever love this started I believe is downward spiral. Then two years later at the MTV music awards he was seen on the red carpet drink a bottle of Hennessy. Even though he was nominated in a couple of categories he was snubbed , but that wasn't what triggered the first real meltdown. When the category of Best Female Video was being presented and Taylor Swift won he stormed the stage and told her and about 9 million viewers that Beyoncé should've won , which many agreed including myself. After that he took time to reflect because of the backlash that followed. After that he ranted but people accepted this was just Kayne West. Now to the latest situation with Mr.West where at his concerts he ranted about Jay-z and Beyoncé not being there after Kim Kardashian was robbed in Paris this past year, to Kid Cudi respecting the hierarchy because he made him , or him stating at his San Jose, California concert he didn't vote but if he did vote he would have voted Trump. Now after Kim was robbed at gun point in Paris he should have took some time off to focus on his wife and focus on his family, just like after the death of his mother he should have went away and mourned her loss. I believe if he would've went away he still could've been creative but learned how to deal with something traumatic at that time and for the future. We as the human race need to have more compassion for one another and pray verses talk and pointing out what's wrong with him.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
