Bio

Lazarus Clyburn is a drop of water from the Fountain of Life and believes that rising every morning is a blessing and another chance to invoke change. He's a man risen from the dead of immaturity to understanding that life is a journey of being perfectly imperfect. He's a survivor of extreme gun violence, a father when doctors said he couldn't be, a college student of sought-after degrees. He's also an alternative to violence project facilitator, a gifted drummer, and an exceptional welder -- all while doing his best to be persistently resilient and encouraged enough to believe that God made him the way he did so his purpose in life matches the gifts He gave him.

I'm passionate about

Spirituality, Family,Producing Music, Promoting Positivity, Education, Mentoring, Writing, Ending Homelessness, Unity, Respect, Loyalty, Sports, Change, Nature

An idea worth spreading

Shifting the trajectory of negative energy to positive energy. If you would receive a dollar every time you do or say something positive, but lose two dollars every time you do, say, or think a negative thought, how will you respond? Because if you realize how expensive your thoughts are you'll never think another negative thought, because it can cost you.
