Daily BITUB- “Bomb”

"Sometimes you're gonna bomb. So, you just might have to blow yourself up with no one's help." -Eminem/ Book of Rhymes

I know a lot of people don't like Eminem for things he says, or just the type of music he puts out. However, his journey, documented drug addictions and fight for recovery tell several sides of him. His lyrics tell so many stories. Many people have dissected this song as it has bar after bar of mixed words and meanings. The above line resonated with me. I think often how we refuse to accept our mistakes. We simply have no desire to look at ourselves and things we have to be better at. We won't accept shortcomings, and we are quick to go on the defensive. We won't "blow ourselves up".  We won't see the things we must. Also in that song he says, "Joy and pain, fortune, fame, shame, choice I made." Accepting that we play the main character in our life, and that our choices shaped it, creates accountability. Through that accountability we can intentionally empower ourselves to make the next choices to do and be better. To push ourselves. To grow. To develop through experiences by unmasking them completely. We must accept our role in the situation and realize as much as we put ourselves here we have the power to move ourselves from here. It's all a choice. It's all our ability to create the realization that we are the influence that matters in our lives. That through faith, hope, love and prayer we can recover from any "bomb" and simply be better for it. 

Believe In The Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is that you trust yourself enough to know what is best for you. That you let yourself do the things you must to be the person you can be. 

Have a blessed, safe, and healthy day everyone.

  1. Mr. C you continue to amaze me. Bible verses, Eminem, daily experiences. This is such a good message and one to think on. I like this song a lot and have listed to Eminem since the beginning. Thank you for being able to relate to so many. It's kind of a big deal. Have a great day.
