Appreciating The Life Of Nipsey Hussle

Ermias Joseph Asghedom, famously known as Nipsey Hussle was recently murdered on March 31st, 2019 in front of his self-made store in his hometown. He was a 34-year-old rapper, songwriter, entrepreneur, and an activist, especially in his own community.

Nipsey Hussle was very much involved in his community and consistently giving back to his people. He was highly admired by the people around him because of his positive deeds. Being an outsider looking into his work and service, he is highly appreciated because we need people like him. We needed him. His care and love for not only his city of Los Angeles but his people bring so much light to his life and what he truly stood for while he was on this earth.

The funeral was held on April 11, 2019, and some lovely words were shared about Nipsey by his girlfriend and mother of one of his children Lauren London. She expressed that " His soul was majestic...a gentle father, and a patient leader, a divine light, and brilliant…". These words coming from a person so close to him shows that he was an amazing person. Words were also shared from his brother Samiel Asghedom "he walked into the room he was the um.. he took control of the world, he was positive, even at a young age."

A marvelous man was taken away from us from senseless Gun violence only raised awareness to the people. It raised awareness on how we should only look out for each other and spread only love because the hate isn't the way to go, it will not bring light and greatness to any situation. Nipsey would want us to spread love and positivity amongst each other because that is literally all he did. Rest In Peace NIP, thank you, your legacy will live on.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
