Outlet With No Power Source


In order to run some of our favorite electrical appliances, we must have the proper power source.

A person cannot plug an appliance into an outlet that doesn’t have a power source and expect it to work.

I am not educated on the topic of electricity, and I am not familiar with the logistics of the duties of an electrician.

However, I am knowledgeable enough to know that an outlet with no power source has no capability to work.

In today’s society with the privileges and opportunities that people have there shouldn’t be any non - operating outlets.

There shouldn’t be people who are left without the proper knowledge needed to pursue goals and life- long dreams.

These individuals who can be identified as the non-working outlets shouldn’t exist because our world should be saturated with electricians who are ready to work.

Although I am using the term electrician to symbolize a devoted individual, this article shouldn’t be viewed as being foreign to anyone.

From the time of being an adolescent to the time of becoming a grown man I must admit that there has been great improvement when it comes to the idea of success within minority communities.

Sadly, there are still people left without the source of power.

There are young people who choose to throw away their gifts and talents and run to the act of violence because they don’t obtain knowledge for other avenues.

There are people who run to drugs because they don’t have mentors who may have gone through similar issues to provide wisdom to steer them in an opposite directions.

There are people who only get the opportunity to experience their dreams for a short amount of time because of poor money management.

Then there are people who are left to only dream because they lack the leader they need in their life to show them how to properly showcase their talents.

This week as I thought of the many non-working outlets we have within our minority communities, I wanted to give these outlets some source of power; some sense of hope.

There are electricians out there, there are individuals that are ready to give you a source of power.

There are individuals ready to help they just need to know who to help.

It takes effort from both ends, people with no power source need to speak up and the electricians need to reach out.

One for the week:
Ecclesiastes 7:8 The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride
