I was divinely inspired to write this post after reflecting on my lack of efforts and what’s really driving me to write. I read the news here and there and find mostly negative highlights that mess up my brain along with having to read poor spelling and grammar – national Aussie news sites, how can you publish with such basic writing mistakes!

Anyways, a lot of time I wonder what’s the point of me writing about a trending topic when news sites all over will cover it – what difference would I make? I thought this after the idea of writing about Drake – “God’s Plan” music video sparked in my mind and then after reading a few articles and realising how little depth they provided, I decided to go ahead and put my own flavour to it.

What also turned me off were all the negative comments that came after and it was a disheartening reminder that so many people can hate on something so positive. I would love to be able to read in depth about a positive trending story without the haterade.

I watched the video after waking up this morning and felt a strong emotional pull that made me tear up. It was brilliantly done with such a pure, positive and loving intent from Drake and his crew. Amidst everything else going wrong with the world today, it was a relief to see a little ray of light poking through.

It’s obvious that Drake is becoming more and more aligned with his higher self and God / The Universe / Source Energy, noting that this is the most important thing he’s ever done in his career.

The most important thing I have ever done in my career…drop a ?? if I can share it with you.

Drake gave away the entire budget of his music video (almost USD$1 million) to groups and individuals in need in Florida. Here are the recipients that we know of:

1. $25,0000 and new uniforms to Miami Senior High School

Best Day Ever! The REAL Drake was at the High today! Thanks for giving back to the community! @Drake pic.twitter.com/9PqaUoerqt

2. $50,000 scholarship to Destiny James at the University of Miami

This happened today. I applied to scholarships last year for which I had to write an essay. I received those scholarships and thought that was the end of it. Apparently, my essay and my story made it to other departments. I was contacted this weekend about doing a video speaking about where I come from, things I’ve been through, and why it is so important for scholarship donors to continue to donate. This was the surprise the whole time. Drake told me that he has read great things about me and appreciates how hard I’ve worked through so many trials and decided to give me $50K for my tuition. @champagnepapi THANK YOU SO MUCH!!’ You don’t understand what this means to me! I would’ve never imagined this happening to me. I’m just a girl from Denmark, SC that wants to MAKE IT and be somebody and for you to see my hard work means the world. Thank you so much. God I thank you. You are so great and amazing! Thank you for blessing me when I thought my hard work was going unnoticed. I’m living out my dreams. God’s Plan ??

4. $50,000 + gift cards and toys to the Lotus House Shelter of Miami women and children’s shelter

5. Spa day, steak dinner and a $10,000 shopping spree for hotel maid Odelie Paret

Inspired by her story of 14-hour work days at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach Hotel along with up to a 4-hour commute time, Drake gave her and two other women a 45-minute shopping spree at Saks to buy whatever they wanted.

6. Cash and cars for other families and community groups in need

Drake approached a woman in a business suit and her son still in school uniform sitting on a ledge, handing them money. As her tears fell, mine did too. The appreciation and relief from them was so strong, it really moved my soul.

He rolled up to Overtown Youth Centre and gave away free ice cream and a brand new van.

This was the toughest scene for me to try and keep it together. Mother and son with some of the strongest spirits I have encountered in my life. I pray you two continue to find the light and the fight within your bond. Blessed to have met you both ?

Bring some love and light into your world, even just a little.

Anything is possible.
