                                                            STREETS PT.5 It all started when I was away from my family. I was out of town, and I was feeling lonely and homesick. I was trying to keep my head above water, to try and make the best of my situation, but I just didn't know what to do. I wanted to be with my family, but I was too far away. I started using drugs as a way to cope with the pain I was feeling. It was the only thing that could numb my heartache and make me forget the emptiness I was feeling. I knew that it was a bad decision, but I was so desperate for a way to cope with the loneliness I was feeling.  The drugs gave me a false sense of security and control, but it was only temporary. I was still unable to escape the pain I was feeling and the emptiness that I was experiencing. I knew that the drugs weren't a long...

  FADE IN EXT. CITY STREET - DAY The sun is setting. We see a young man, (NAME), walking down the street, looking lost in thought. He takes a deep breath and looks around.  EXT. PARK - DAY We follow (NAME) as he enters the park. He pauses for a moment, taking in the sights. Then he continues walking, until he reaches a bench.  EXT. BENCH - DAY (NAME) sits on the bench, alone. He stares off into the distance, remembering the time he was away from his family and using drugs. Tears start to stream down his face. He takes a deep breath and looks up at the sky.  EXT. ALLEYWAY - DAY We follow (NAME) as he enters an alleyway. He looks around, his eyes scanning the area.

We all know the power of words. They have the ability to build up or tear down, to heal or to hurt. And yet, despite this knowledge, we still find ourselves lying, gossiping, or speaking insincerely from time to time. Why is that? Perhaps it's because we don't fully understand the impact that our words can have on others. We may think that a little white lie won't hurt anyone, or that flattery is harmless. But the truth is that lying and insincerity can do serious damage to relationships, both personal and professional. On the other hand, a truthful heart is a powerful thing. When we speak the truth, even if it's difficult or uncomfortable, we show others that we respect and value them. We build trust and credibility, and we create a foundation for strong relationships that can weather any storm. So if you want to be a person of integrity, start by cultivating a truthful heart. Be honest with yourself and with others, even when it's hard. Speak with sincerity and au...

DON'T LET YOUR ENEMY IN Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Worry is an enemy that arrives on your doorstep disguised as a friend. When you're in trouble, Worry says, "Stick with me, kid. I'll help you deal with this." What a lie! Worry never contributes anything positive. It's a circular thought pattern that only leads to more worry, and in the end it leaves you with a knot in your stomach and no plan of action. So when you hear the knock, knock, knock of worry at your door, don't answer. Instead, pray. Ask for my help. Trust me. Thank me. I'll lead you to my solution, and I'll station my peace like a guard outside your heart to keep worry off the premises. PEACE THAT DANCES The fruit of the Spirit is... joy [and] peace. Someone once defined joy as...

A TRUTHFUL HEART A lying tongue hates those it hurts, and a flattering mouth works ruin. What you say matters. It is so easy to fall into the trap of exaggeration or flattery or flat-out lying. Though dishonesty can sometimes get you what you want or help you avoid what you don't want, steer clear of it. Though others may tell "little white lies" and get away with them, want you to be a man of absolute truth. Why is honesty so important? It's not because I'm trying to make you into a prideful goody-goody. It's because want to develop you into a man of character. want you to experience the freedom that comes from shooting straight. I want you to be delivered from the insecurity that makes you exaggerate things to make yourself appear better than you are. Honesty is a matter of the heart. Give me your heart, and together let's set honesty as our goal. ASK ME FOR WHAT YOU WANT You do not have because you do not ask. Ask me for what you want. If you need direc...

                                                         CHAPTER 199 You should always want to put people in a position to win because you will need people around you that are getting money. play by the rules until you can’t play anymore feel me. grind hard never let a person stop you. you should play until you can’t play anymore. the grind doesn’t stop. people just grow and get wiser. for the most part, the mind elevates. people live by the code of the street until something happens. I never claimed to be the hardest person on these streets. people want fame I want money. I’m not in it for the money but people that’s humble and don’t chase the money get the money. people watch what you say before plans set in and it is a problem that fast. this goes out to the triple bean you know what I mean.
