Still I Rise: Emancipation from Burden and Egoism
By Kimatni D. Rawlins Last year I took on far too many SELFLESS burdens fighting for causes and people who do not even fight for themselves. From business to family to friendships, I absorbed their exhausting energy, redundant problems, and countless conundrums while making them my own without receiving reciprocity. Thus, I weakened my stern […]
Recollections of Jamaica
Yesterday altered my life, today shed light on the silhouette blossoming in Caribbean waters with the beauty of mermaids. Transformed my thoughts, altered my vision – awakened creative prisms within the chambers of my heart. I have fallen in love with destiny – following trails from Kemet to Phuket, to the depths of ancient pyramids. […]

The Emancipation of Human Burden and Egoism
By Kimatni D. Rawlins Last year I took on far too many SELFLESS burdens fighting for causes and people — especially within the diversity field — that do not even fight for themselves.

Take Back Control
Take back control before the affliction over stimulates. But where can we go – what can we do? We must shake off this burden, clouds of black dust entrapping our Ki. We must break free.

True King Masters
