We're very fortunate to have Gabrielle Anwar stop by and join us today.  Gabrielle is probably one of the most positive and open-minded individuals that I know.

Gabrielle is very refreshing to talk to because she speaks her mind and holds nothing back.  She is very passionate about her family and strives to be the best mother she can possibly be.

Allen Campbell, celebrity chef, drops some major knowledge on this episode of the Megna Method!  It was such a pleasure having him on the show and hearing his expertise on healthy living.  He goes in to detail about many benefits of leaning towards a plant-based LIFESTYLE.  Notice I didn't say diet, because diets are temporary.  What we need to realize is that we are in desperate need (as Americans) to change our LIFESTYLES, in regards to eating habits. You truly do not want to miss out on the information that Allen "dishes" out! (See what I did there . . .) Enjoy!

This is my first born-again album and i'm calling it: Goodbye RVA, Hello World. When i came up with this title, it just meant leaving RVA and going out into this world into other states and countries, like El Salvador which ive already been. But the meaning for the title is alot deeper. For me, it means saying goodbye to the old me and introducing my new self. I would have never pictured in a million years id be where i am now in my life and none of it was by my own doing. I know some people say im religious or whatever, but i am not and im far from it. I just believe in love and truth, and i found it truly comes from Christ. For more info or questions, come talk to ya boi. I thank God bcuz without Him, i would have never even made this dope project. But go check it out and listen, and tell me what yall think 😉  love you all...

Goodbye RVA, Hello World

Matt 6.21 (Open The Door)

"Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also." - Gen. 1:16

Lyrics

Hook:
Moonlight
The lesser for a dark night
Please dont let me lose sight


Bridge: 
Dark nights
We never had a streetlight
But now moon please 
Shine on me


Verse:

Yea shine uh
Open my mind
Dont wanna lie Uh
Im not alright 
Ill be waitin for the sunrise yea
But the moon reflects the sun so fo real its always here

Dont be afraid thats what He said when im feelin sad
Depression real the enemy is on attack 
I truly feel the weight in isolation im alone
So much technology i still cant pick up my phone

There must be so much more than an IG 
And chillin wit the wifey 
Who I didnt even marry
Maybe its unspoken but it sounds imaginary 
They say to love yourself but how can i when i scare me


But when i was alone
Someone heard me cry
When i didnt make a sound
It was comin from the sky
Over the hills 
Where do i put my trust
I guess in the One 
who showed me how to love



About the song:

I used to live off of Hull St. in between hicks road where the Koger is and the sheetz. The neighborhood is called Longwood Acres. And for the 4-5 years I lived there, we never had a streetlight, there are no streetlights there and I complained about this several times. And so our light was really the moon. And when it was a full moon, the neighborhood just lit up as if we did have streetlights. So I learned a fact that we have the greater light which is the sun and the lesser light which is the moon, but either way, there’s still light shining all thru out the day. So I internalized this. In high school, I really started to get depressed a lot. I didn’t call it depression but it still was happening. I wanted to be in the dark all the time to the point where I would put a bunch of bed sheets over my windows in my room so no light would enter in. In those times I felt the loneliest and just felt like a crap. And I don’t think smoking made any of this better. But one day I started believing and following Jesus and my life lit up and everything changed. And everything has been different from that point. and now, sometimes I still get depressed but now I know why and the remedy to these symptoms. And so now my heart is to live in the light and never lose sight of the light even during dark nights. bcuz its still there.
