“I want to thank you for the blessings and the gifts
And the lessons and the messages they left, I get the drift”

– Joell Ortiz on “Follow My Lead”

There are some moments in your life that you take with you for a long time. Whether big or small, there are just some key times that resonate with you. This past July, I experienced a bunch of them. July’s usually an up-and-down month for me, but this past July was awesome. And because it was, I can’t help but feel truly blessed.

“Everything must eventually come to an end
So try to savor your moments, cuz time flies don’t it
The beauty of life, you gotta make it last for the better
Cuz nothin’ lasts forever, ya know”

– Nas on “Nothing Lasts Forever“

Life is a trip, isn’t it? It moves so fast and waits for no one. It passes you by in a flash and you’re left wondering where did the time go? It’s relentless, aggressive, and unforgiving. Yet despite all that, if you take the time to savor the special moments, it’s a beautiful thing. If you live at your own pace and take in the scenes, you really appreciate it. As we get older, close friends drift apart, hobbies that you once loved fade away, and your views on what’s important change too. It’s a rollercoaster, but I guess that’s a part of growing up…

“Success is my only mutha f*ckin’ option, failure’s not”
– Eminem on “Lose Yourself“

In this krazy journey we call life, there’s a lot of challenges that’re presented to you. And yes, it’s really easy to make excuses when things don’t go your way. From “I’m too tired” to “it’s someone else’s fault”, it’s really easy to blame someone or something else for your shortcomings. As an up-and-coming artist in the music biz, I’m around it often. I’ve been doing a LOT of reflecting this past month (what else is new, right?) and it’s gotta be said: it’s time to stop making excuses.

Hello one and all to the Ajaxxx.com Opinions Column. This is the sole spot in the entire stratosphere where you can explore my brains and find out what’s goin’ on (had to keep it zombie related with all the recent zombie news, namean?). For those that’re new to the site, I’m glad that you can join me. And for those that’re returning to the site, glad to have you back. I’ve been doing some thinking this past month and I wanted to talk about it…it’s time that all of us take responsibility for our actions.

“Xzibit maintain focus til the casket drop
That’s the only way to survive and stay on top”

– Xzibit on “Focus”

Life is full of distractions. There’s so much noise, so many obstacles, and endless hardships keeping you from where you wanna go. As a dreamer, it can get pretty discouraging. Yet despite all the drama that you’re faced with, you gotta keep your eye on the prize. That’s been the theme of this month.
