WHAT DO YOU BRING TO THE BANQUET TABLE OF LIFE?

It was sad to hear about Coolio’s passing yesterday at 59. He was one of my hip-hop influences in my teens. I probably listened to Gangsta’s Paradise a few thousand times. It was a revolutionary production. It helped me in my music career.

My former band (Yomundo) and I recorded in the same studio as Coolio ( Wendy House in Shepherds Bush). He was there a few days before our slot. It would have been great to meet him, to express my appreciation for the gift he placed on the banquet table of life.

To be fully alive is to develop the gifts you are endowed with and deliver them to humanity, then bow out wholly spent “It is finished” Christ.

Has the world met you yet? Does the world know the flavour of your dish?

There are no gifts too small. A simple smile can build an empire. Delivery is what matters.

We look forward to enjoying your gifts.

BE ENCOURAGED
