Dossier ...

Dossier

Having disingenuous people around who blow smoke to seem relevant is a flawed focus.  You can walk this journey alone and share the wisdom of your travels, no malice, just loving and forgiving.  The road is paved with speed-bumps and potholes the only thing you will not find is paved gold, however, what is golden, is getting to the other side, that gold is your epiphany. Anything learned is a gain, so as it is written a mistake becomes obsolete.  Your code of ethics tells who you really are, when it's pure, it's not hard to remain authentic.   Never let them see you sweat, is a nice cliche, but through the journey called life, adversity is the device that gets you through.  Show them your moxie, it's okay, some days you have to brag a little to the world that you're here, with the things that invigorate you, it shows revitalization and inspiration. When you feel good that vibe transpires in everything that you do and to everyone that you encounter.

The Devil is a liar.  I've always known that if GOD be for you  ...  Stay steadfast, though not always an easy thing to do.  Being the only child is one of my weapons, as you see walking alone I was fully accustomed to.  Not everyone will stand with you, more will stand against you,  some family became a foe, friends are few, everyone has opinions.  If you come out flawed, it’s Devine renewal and empowerment.   I no longer see the world the same, I see it as it is.  The gist of this story is 'fertile ground' people can fail you and themselves daily, you must know 'your' truth, then you can have the willingness, to wake up and prepare yourself for the battle, whatever it is, wherever it takes you, after all, you have the best traveling companion (yourself), who is always there when you call.

What Are You Doing With Your Life?

Germany BLM Showed Out!!!

GERMANY - BLM - PROTEST ...  Tens of thousands of anti-racism protesters took to the streets in cities across Germany this weekend, in what may be the largest demonstrator turnout outside of the United States.



In Berlin, organizers expected 1,500 people to show up. Instead, an estimated 15,000 protested in Alexanderplatz, Berlin’s city center, with signs that read “Germany is not innocent” and “Black Lives Matter,” German media outlet DW reported. Demonstrators held a moment of silence that lasted eight minutes and 46 seconds, the amount of time the former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on George Floyd’s neck.



But the protests extended far beyond Berlin, with rallies organized in nine other cities across the country. Munich saw a crowd of at least 20,000 people and 14,000 people rallied in Hamburg. Even German football teams—including Werder Bremen, Wolfsburg, Borussia Dortmund and Hertha Berlin—kneeled in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter Protests.



But protesters in Germany are not simply expressing outrage at police violence and racial discrimination happening in the United States, they’re calling it out in their own backyard.  NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE!!! #blm #blacklivesmatter #black #blacklivesmatter✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 #kevinknighton360 #stephenjackson #mattbarnes #shannonsharpe #germany🇩🇪 #protest #icantbreathe

It’s a Cultivated Lifestyle ...

I’m living my best life.  A Happily Driven California boy, who was not meant to break.  As the only child, it’s been charmed.  The lessons I must admit, some were very hard.  It’s isn’t about loss or gain.  It’s more about lessons and experience, it's cumulative .  What mark do I want to leave on the world, community and my children, family members.  We must embark on the greater good, this world is forever changing and very challenging.   COVID-19 arrived and CORONA is not letting up.  Let’s be purposeful and well intended.


I’ve been asked sooooo many times on my Blog,  but especially of late, for more pictures of me and more insight into personal things about me.  
So here’s a little look see :-)  Happy Now NOSEY 😜 😭 😍 😂

Baby Baby, Sweet Baby ... Loving Aretha Franklin

Hits, Hits and More Hits.  That VOICE, That DELIVERY, was unparalled .  The daughter of a Preacher man, lost her battle to Pancreatic Cancer, on August 16th 2018.  It was a very sad day for the Entertainment Industry and Global World.  The death of Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin, was the end of an era.  A singer, songwriter, producer, social and civic activist, and philanthropist.  

Performing for Kings, Presidents, Heads of State and the Global world.  Franklin was a blueprint staple for any female singer, covering all genres.  Tweets came in from all over the world, Former Presidents, Bush, Obama, Clinton, Mic Jagger, Lenny Kravitz, Anita Baker, Gladys Knight, Diana Ross, Annie Lennox, Britney Spears, Smokey Robinson, Pattie LaBelle, Chaka Khan, Carole King, Tony Bennett, Time Magazine, Paul McCartney, Mariah Carey, Maxine Waters, Bonnie Riatt, Cyndi Lauper, Nas, Stella McCartney, Lionel Richie, David Foster, Wynonna, Beyoncé, Jay Z, Ledisi  and many others. 

As a black male, growing up, the legacy of Franklin always provided comfort for me and my family.  I can never recall a day in my life, where her music wasn't showcased.  Saturday morning chores, her beautiful vocals, was always showcased and highlighted.  Having realized that I got to roam the earth at the same time that Aretha Franklin was a creative force, brings such warmness to my heart, she was a prominent force in the soundtrack of my life.  Thank you Aretha Franklin … I'll "Never Let You Go". Rest In Peace.  KK

Happy 92 Birthday Grandmother Oleava

It's been a long hard seven years without you here in the flesh, lots of things have happened.  Many of them you would be shocked and appalled by, but mostly you would be proud of the man, I've become.  Funny thing is that you always knew that I had it in me, so no surprises there.  I find solace and comfort in knowing that you're with some of the ones, in whom you loved the most, Pops, Granny and your Father.  I know that you continue to keep a restful eye on me.  I miss you now and always, but I forever carry your teachings with me.  You were a strong proud businesswoman, mother, grandmother, Christian, Sister and Wife.  Your legacy will forever live on in my heart, mind and soul.   The impact that you have left on all those, who you have come in contact with, has forever be greater for having spent time with you.  Love always Your Grandson ~Kevin~
