It's Lent, Which Means The Time Has Come For Introspect and Discipline For Betterment.So, Mistah Marvel, what are you giving up for Lent?
No one asked me that question. In fact, it was a question that I asked myself late January, realizing that Ash Wednesday landed on the same day as Valentine's Day. Last year, I detailed some of my lenten sacrifices and why I find it important to do so at least once a year. Lent is the perfect time for this. It's the 40 days (not counting Sundays) before Easter Sunday and recreate the 40 days Jesus spent in the desert, being tempted by Satan and ultimately leading to his preparation for his ultimate sacrifice.

Hey, fam. In hoping that my blog offers a unique and insightful look into how I manage my lifestyle for entertainment, blogging, podcasting, and events. From time to time, I do want to give some tips and provide some information about certain things to help others out there that might be struggling with getting the creative juices flowing.
I use a lot of apps. In fact, I have to emphasize that even more. I use a lot of apps. I've test-driven apps, tried beta versions, given feedback to developers, and have enjoyed life in an easier sense because of this. So, because I use so many apps, I am attached to my phone at the hip (literally) and therefore have grown widely accustomed to having my phone in hand. Enter: Quality Time App
The universe is the ultimate giver and the ultimate recipient. Of what, you ask? Of lessons, messages, and examples.
Trillions of years ago, the universe is created in one sudden moment, "The Big Bang", and since then, the universe continues creating and destroying itself. That's all the universe has been doing this whole time. In fact, scientists such as Neil deGrasse Tyson will tell us that the sonic boom (or whatever it was - gravitational waves) that was present during the creation of the universe is still traveling outward creating continuous and continual ripples for the rest of existence. Deep, right? In my quest to develop a sound blog for my readers, I've come across quite a few other sites focused on helping and providing some developmental advice for readers. Many of these sites succeed at drawing in not only the attention of readers, but also their loyalty. But is it ever enough?
As stated in my latest Niume post, I've come to question if we - the readers of said blogs - are really getting our fix and our itch scratched reading advice blogs. We've subscribed, we've read, and we've applied what we can. And that might be the problem: we're applying what we can, rather than applying all of what is being delivered to us. The relationship between subscribers and writers becomes strangely conflicted immediately when "4 Ways To Manage Your Time Better" suddenly becomes a PinkMonkey synopsis of what seems like a penny pinch of advice. So, here's my angle and thoughts on this conflict.
In 2016, there were quite a few songs that helped me pick myself up. They were songs where the artist was speaking to themselves. A second voice of sorts, one’s self listening to one’s self give the advice and motivation needed to get things going. For me, one of those songs was titled, “Love”, by Kid Cudi. On mornings right around this time last year, I would leave the house in the mornings for work and play that song, followed by Kid Cudi’s other song “Speeding Bullet to Heaven (Acoustic)”.
