My Journey to Stardom: Day 578 "My Purpose"

"My Journey to Stardom" : Day 578 "My Purpose"

by Brandalyn N Gill on Sunday, July 3, 2011 at 4:44pm
I HAVE BEEN CHOSEN; God gave me these gifts and I, in turn, CHOSE MYSELF not to harbor them but to use them for the greater good of society, my generation, people I have never met - to improve the well-being of many lives of people that I may never know personally. I am here to positively impact all that I can and allow God to use me to build an army of positivy against this negative, evil world. This mission is not for society to understand right now, maybe not until long after I am gone, but I can't stop and I will not stop...My generations spends half of their day watching television, texting, playing on Facebook Skype and Twitter, and checking emails about more nonsense and have no idea that they can be future business leaders and presidents...My generation exemplifies the show "16 and pregnant" because it is socially acceptable to not only lose your virginity before marriage but to flaunt your promiscuity and employ more than one sexual partner at one time..My generation lives at home with their parents until they are well into their twenties because they are afraid of the world around them - or better yet, drastically unprepared because babies are raising babies these days and parents cannot teach their children adequately because they are lost themselves...My generation can barely write a suitable English paper, even in their junior year in college because we have adapted to what we call "text language" and spell there as "der" and you as "u", to as "2" and probably as "prolly"....50% of my generation (and this country) cannot recognize the United States on the map of the world, and yet they dwell here and the United States is the most abnormal country on the map of the world....My generation abuses the opportunities they are granted by spending money they do not have on things that can perish tomorrow and investing countless hours of their time into things that will not benefit them or anyone else, ever (such as MacBook's and IPod's)....My generation does not stop and say hello to complete strangers anymore or say "excuse me" to someone they bump into on the street because they are so accustomed to others doing the same...My generation is greedy and selfish and would rather do for themselves and advance their own desires while they watch other suffer, directly and inadvertently because of their crazed need for instantaneous gratification...and I am here to change that...

I want to start a reading and writing institution that will be international to teach underprivileged children who never were granted to opportunity and FUNDING to read and write on their actual grade level and that will give privileged kids who have the opportunities but abuse them, the opportunity to REEDEEM themselves. I want to write, produce, and act in films that will minister to the minds of millions on a spiritual level and feed their souls, granting them encouragement and life lessons that are not dowloadable via THE APPLE STORE. I want start a scholarship foundation that will give children the opportunity to go to school in America or wherever, because they are the first in their family to even want to do so, or because their country or "hood" does not offer those opportunities or they haven't been taught to want to do so. I want to bring joy back to people's eyes when the word "book" is mentioned because they know the written word is food-for-thought and that written words are basically God's words manifested through the minds of his children. I want to buy mansions that will house the starving children that exist right in here in America, because we so often forget that a vast percentage of this country's wealth is divided amongst the top 5 percentile of the most wealthy people who reside here - people, who unlike me, want to be richer and keep getting richer to pass the riches to their own blood line and leave the rest of us to starve, because after we secure a mortgage payment, car payment, and light bill for our average house of four, we can barely afford to split the McDonald's meals that we eat at least twice a week.

So, I apologize if I sometimes seem UNRELATABLE when I prance around with a smile even on my worst days to keep my head up for every child in the hood that has it far worse and WISHES they could be in my position of positivity through God. I APOLOGIZE if I seem cocky because I am THANKFUL and confident in the talents and gifts that God has blessed me with, because I see what he has in store for me to do for others and have overcome my self-esteem issues for the sake of all the little girls I haven't even met yet who are counting on me to do so.  I AM SORRY IF you used to be my friend or boyfriend or guyfriend or family member and you were cleansed from my life for the drama and the trivial issues you were being used by the devil to put in my way to keep me from doing the GREATER THING that is WAY BIGGER than you or me, or rent I couldn't make on my own, or books that I am struggling to sell, or hatred and jealousy and strife others are throwing into my life JUST BECAUSE I AM ME AND POSITIVE AND GOOD, or all those that constantly lie to me and take my kindness for weakness and laugh when I cry behind closed doors and beg God to deliver me from these wretched hurtful callous people of this sick and twisted negative world – people that don’t even know that when I cry in church and behind closed doors  I am crying for them because they don’t even know how bad they are ! I APOLOGIZE, that my purpose is so much bigger than that and that you got left behind because I have to keep going for all those lives I plan to touch before I leave this earth, all of those children of God that I want to help....I know my purpose. Find yours.

I can't stop, I won't be stopped. So to you I say, I will pray that you find your purpose and learn that I am here for the greater good, so stop trying to steal mine...

My Journey To Stardom: Day 486 "JEALOUSY AND SUCCESS"

Hello my fellow people,
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day, because I am about to step on some toes, most likely. Please do not be offended by the words you are about to read, but if you are, you are probably one of the people I am about to describe.
I am so exhausted with those people of our population who daily subject themselves to JEALOUSY. Let me tell you all reading this what jealousy is by definition: jealous resentment against a rival, a person enjoying success or advantage, etc., or against another's success or advantage itself. By my definition, jealousy is a flesh and spirit devouring sickness that is a pathetic, slothful, and depressing excuse for laziness. Do you know how much energy it takes to envy and be jealous of someone else because they have something you want? How can you focus on you and your goals if you are too busy being jealous of others because of what they are accomplishing and who they are?  How could you be so ungrateful to God for perfectly and masterfully crafting you to be who you are by envying someone else? Why don’t you ADMIRE THAT PERSON, LEARN FROM THAT PERSON, AND ASPIRE TO BE LIKE THAT PERSON! I understand why; because jealousy is lack of knowledge as well. Lack of understanding for how to acquire success. Look around and you will quickly acknowledge that those who are jealous are not implementing drive and ambition in their lives  - of course they are not – because they are using that drive and ambition to hate you! Like I said, pitiful excuse for slothfulness.
To everyone who has caught themselves slipping and devoting an ounce of energy to hating  someone else for being who they are, appreciating the person God crafted them to be, and working daily to maintain and grow who they are, dust yourself off and get back to what is real, what is worth your energy – improving THYSELF. Jealousy is a sickness, get well.

My Journey to Stardom : Day 398 "2011"

Goodmorning, everyone and Happy New Year.

                Am I the only one who feels that 2010 sped by faster than a bamboozling swift freight train to Paris? Where did 2010 go!

                I don’t know about you guys, but 2010 was an eventful and teachable year for me – full of lessons, lessons, lessons.  There was little heart ache, much stress, many life changing events, and a PLETHORA of God’s teachings. I know that sometimes I moved too fast LAST year (can’t believe I am being forced to say LAST year – just a few days ago it was THIS year) and other times, I might have moved too slowly; I know that sometimes I did not listen to God and follow what he might have wanted me to do at the moment, only to unknowingly dishevel the mysterious plan he had for me. Hahaha! Am I the only one?

                You know, sometimes, I feel that we all just get so carried away and occupied with believing that we are super human or intelligent or strong enough or swift enough to meander through life without listening to the spirit that got uses to communicate with us or the  angels he meticulously places in our paths to guide us in the directions we may or may not need to go. I know my hyper behind moved too fast and was stubborn and was ignorant many times last year. I do feel that I, in the end, accomplished the things that God set for me to accomplish last year, but I know I migrated off course, on a few occasions. But, I guess, we live and we learn, right?.....

                Overall, 2010 was a good year for me? I worked so hard and accomplished so many things so quickly that that was just the speed that the year disappeared. I had such a crazy holiday season and New Year’s that I had not time to even ponder on New Year’s resolutions, my annual regimen. …. I just know that I do want to continue to build my business, continue to encourage and inspire others, continue to do God’s work, continue to grow and LEARN from mistakes I made even “LAST” year , continue to trust in God and the angels he has placed in my life to assist me. But, I have a personal assistant now; I am working to get by debut book “Life” on Amazon. I started U of H last year. I got into the Entrepreneurship program as I have wanted since I was ten years old. I moved into my own apartment. I partook in my first television interview. I published a book and hosted my own book release party. I met many smiling faces and learned just as quickly I didn’t need them and they only had one desire – to distract me. God sent me many mentors and removed from my life many people, once again. I stumbled much and overcame even more. I worked hard, I played hard; I played too hard and learned lessons there too. And I guess, I must have listened when I needed to, because I still progress.

                I need to further His work and never be discouraged by any of those who are derailing this mission – no matter who they are. I must forgive those who have wronged me and hope that those I have hurt or wronged will find it in their hearts to forgive me. I must move on past the mistakes of last year. I look at each year as a new beginning – a granted opportunity for atonement with thyself, another opportunity to LIVE THIS LIFE ….better than you did the year before.

               To all of you who were there for me last year, even at times, I was not fully there for myself or them, I love you; you know who you are.

                I know it has been a while, everyone, but let me tell you something: listen to the spirit and please, live, laugh, and learn.  Forgive, but never forget. Love, but try not to hurt because of it. And only put your guards down for long enough to release who or what you are fighting against. The journey continues….

BRANDALYN GILL'S FREE BOOK SIGNING AND RELEASE PARTY - Thursday, December 2, 2010 at 9:05pm

DON'T MISS IT....

Dreamer by Brandalyn Gill - Thursday, October 7, 2010 at 9:49pm

Dreamer

Dream a dream of an unknown time and place
Dream to your heart's content at a forthright pace
Dream to the highest mountain; here you can go
You can go anywhere in this world and this you should know
No one can crush a will that is true to the hear
Or dismantle a vision - tear your hope apart
You are the captain of your barge and the teller of your time
So use your moments wisely and caution every dime
Life is a fairy tale, waiting to be unveiled
Your hands write your story and embellish your tale
Whosoever sets his mind shall accomplish great things
He controls his future and for him, the angels sing
Upon your greatest sleep, fantasy seems...
The DRIVE that becomes reality and accomplishes your dreams

(This is a piece from my book "Life" - I need over 200 more pre orders to go to print for my publication date : December 1st . Check me out : www.illuminationliterary.com/shop.html)

"My Journey to Stardom" Day 288: EVENTS EVENTS EVENTS (DRIVE) - Thursday, October 7, 2010 at 9:39pm

Hi Everyone,

I do apologize for having taken so long to get back on here and do a post. I have been so busy with these events. I did poetry at the Instant Classic at U of H and rushed from there to do poetry at and attend Rainey's Creole Lunchroom and Catering's food taster today :) I had such a blast and made some pre orders so that was great and very excited ! AND MANY OF YOU DO NOT KNOW THAT I DO DO POETRY READINGS; PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU WOULD LIKE ME TO READ POETRY AT YOUR EVENTS OR DO AN INSPIRATIONAL SPEECH OF ANY KIND ( 1 877 LITE 023 ext. 3 or brandy@illuminationliterary.com)

I also wanted to take  moment and inspire you all to develop a firm sense of drive for your dreams. I spent all day from 10 am to 3 o clock in the sun, did poetry for a rush of students who barely paid attention, and then rushed from that event to a second one just to make a total of six pre orders ! That is drive - an undying will to do WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO BE WHERE YOU NEED TO BE! You all should stop at nothing for the things you want in this life and push and fight until you cannot anymore...and then push some more ! There are so many negative influences in the world, so many opposing forces telling you that you cannot do what you want to do and trying to discourage you from doing just that. But if you have the drive and ambition to get it done, NOTHING can get in your way , UNLESS you let it.

All I am saying, people, is to keep your head so far up that a cherry picker couldn't bring it down and shoot for the moon and don't veer off the path until you get there.

Much love ; please check out my site and youtube :)

"My Journey to Stardom" Day 242 - All I Can Do: My Epiphany... - Sunday, August 22, 2010 at 9:45pm

Facebook,

I do apologize for being absent, especially to those of you who watch my show and who have been actively particpating with my blogs and the progress of my book. Please take a second to read my explanation....
To spare you all too many details I will just let you all know that this summer has been very crazy for me; so much has happened....so many ups and down, i has been absolutely CRAZY. These couple of weeks I have been tying to relax, because my summer session classes drove me completely insane. I was staying in room all hours of the day, literally going insane. I was going so crazy, my grandmother had come and save me and threaten to take away my computer if I did not take breaks. I took 32 weeks worth of coursework in less than 11 weeks and I was totally exhausted. I was going to post a video for you all Wednesday but I just dropped everything for the week and decided to relax. Between promoting this book and school, I was about to drop it all and even call of the publication.....

Lately, guys, I have been wondering what I should do...asking God why it is so hard to publish this book and help people with the show, if this is what I am supposed to be doing... I have been very lost, just trying to enjoy the remnants of my summer and prepare for U of H. My first day is tomorrow. I apologize if I am rambling, guys, but where did the year go? I mean, I was planning for this all year and last year and the time has arrived and the clock is ticking down....All I have is this dream and this book and this show and I just want to share with the world...
I was asking God, after stressing on and off and I believe He has reached me today. He told me to push this book and this show until I cannot push anymore. He said to go beyond the stress, and the pain, and the fatigue, and make my message heard, not for the fame and the recognition and the money, but for the people whose heart I need to touch before I die. He told me that I was forgetting the main goal and that is why things do not seem to be going all that great.
I am sorry if I have intimidated any of you or seemed like I was bragging. I am not just trying to do this for me, I originally set out to touch the hearts of the world or whoever reads my books, to be an ispiration, to make a change. So, I might have been absent this week, but it will never happen again. I am not going anywhere, people. The blog, the videos, the book is just going to keep on coming. I WILL NOT give up, I WILL NEVER stop trying. I am on a mission that is far beyond me. I have to do this - spread this word, make this dream come true......It is all I can do y'all....this is all I can do...

Thank you and I love you and I appreciate all my fans and supporters. You guys keep me in this game. Please continue to push with
me...continue to help me spread this message ...

My Journey to Stardom: Day 225 "Struggling" - Thursday, August 5, 2010 at 4:38pm

I WAS NOT.....

born to be like everyone else, born to create some future wealth, wealth to supply the nation and those that come after me, born to spread some light on the things that they will never see,I stick out like a soar thumb and work so hard to fulfill God's will, stand all alone and sometimes the pain becomes real, I'm different than all my peers and they hate me more than satan, they think they want to be me but they are so mistaken. tyring to make this dream come true and pressing every day, but I get knocked on my face still- God take this all away. It so hard I want to cry but the tears just won't come out, cried so much in this short life i can't even cry now. Feeling like a vessel just supposed to fulfill my purpose, I'm not staying at home on weekends on purpose....I'm working on this goal so I can feed the kids I don't have, trying to help my peers take a better path....it just gets so hard when you sometimes cry aone, the life that you live may not ever be known. no one seems to understand what it's like to be born to be an example, another life I sometimes want to sample. Trying to do my best and be grateful at the same time, but I can't stop the pain at moments so I had to write this rhyme. Who cares if I sound like I'm complaining 'cuz I never do, I feel like I gotta be strong for me AND you. I'm doing this for the person who is reading this note, not to be on my death bed and be able to gloat. the other side of the fence is the suffering behind the blessings, you can't see it but I live it and that's beyond the guessing. God gave me this dream but I never knew was beyond it, still I would trade my life for no one's and that's the truth , so I honor him.....just doesn't help at times when your best isn't enough and you have to sacrifice it all for this goal...sometimes you feel like you are merely struggling to work your way out of a ten foot deep hole...
