<p>Its hard but I&#8217;m still moving. Thanking God for the strength to take each step. Not forgetting were I came from and remembering the lessons I have learned in my personal evolution. Nobody said that this journey would be easy. I wasn&#8217;t told of  broken roads. Its important that I stay grounded and embrace the good with the not so pleasing.</p>
<p>On my darkest days there are glimmers of  light that  peer through the cracks of my unbelief. I&#8217;m learning to be ever the more patient.  While my capacity to understand is expanding. The fear of failure is subsiding and I&#8217;m realizing that only I can be my worst enemy. The ability to love,  forgive and except are gifts from the creator and they should be held in high esteem.</p>
<p>This is the life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-970" title="IMG_0629" src="http://www.artistgrooms.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/IMG_06291-300x225.jpg" alt="IMG_0629" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p>Life goes on and I have to move with it. No matter what I have to keep pushing. On this journey we aren&#8217;t promised green pastures or sacks of gold. All we have is the air we breath and the moment we occupy. If I could reach back in time and gather those that have been absorbed by eternity. I would store them within the chambers of my heart and cast it into the future. So that when my journey has come to an end, with me standing at my road of translation me and my company of souls can transition together.</p>
<p>No body said that this would be easy. I wasn&#8217;t told of bumpy roads. Hell is hot, death is greed. This is no time to fall on my knees. I will not surrender. I will not relent. Only death can stop me and I&#8217;ve made no provisions for her.</p>
<p>Perpetual motion. There&#8217;s sharks out hear. Keep Swimming.</p>

<p>Delayed but not denied. I had a bit of a set back with me being in the hospital and having to recuperate. They let me out the bed and now I hit the ground running:):) I couldn&#8217;t wait to get off of bed rest. I know what your going to say &#8220;Artist take it easy&#8221;. I cant help it I was built for speed&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;. I&#8217;m about to put the rubber to the road and make the tires bleed.. Okay, okay. Maybe I wont do things exactly how I imagine. I&#8217;ll passe my self  till I get the right momentum. Then I assign the task to some one capable and qualified to assist in handling my load. I have to work smarter not just harder.</p>
<p>With that being said I have to catch up on some paper work and what nots. I&#8217;ll drop a line asap to update you on my current status with the ins and outs of running my Pet Salon. Its a lot of work but just another &#8220;Day In The Life Of Artist Knox&#8221; My friends are welcomed and the haters can kick ROOOCCKSS!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-927" title="IMG_0783" src="http://www.artistgrooms.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/IMG_0783-300x225.jpg" alt="IMG_0783" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p>I just got released from the hospital after a 4day stay. One of which was spent in the ICU. The doctors said that I had suffered from &#8221; physical exhaustion, dehydration, and a bit of malnourishment&#8221;. All I remember is passing out alone in my shop and waking up 12hrs later in the ICU with tubes in my nose and mouth.</p>
<p>For the past year I have been running full speed in efforts to set the proper wheels in motion. Day in and day out I&#8217;ve had to push my limits both physically and mentally. Just to stay afloat and in sync with the hectic passe of being a business man, a celebrity(I use that term loosely) and a father. By no means is this life style an easy feat. At one angle it my seem to be glitz and glamor. Underneath the surface the true image is revealed. Contending in such an arena is hard work and if one intends to be viable. Then one has to come to the realization that &#8220;the work is never complete&#8221;. There will always be another step to take. Another project to complete with in a specified dead line. Another party to attend in order to net work and make connections. I&#8217;m not sure if People even go to parties to listen to music and just hang out any more. Now days they seem to be business meetings with music in the back ground. If you want to be known or seen its in your best interest to attend.  All this in hopes to stay in the light. To be a contender. Nothing wrong with that, we all desire to make our mark in this life in some way or another. I just need to passe my self.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be back on the scene soon enough. Till then I&#8217;m in my PJ&#8217;s for the next few days drinking cranberry juice and eating fruit. A little rest and relaxation will do me some good. Pinkies up..</p>

<p>Beverly Hills Groomer Season 1 may be done. That doesnt mean that I am. I&#8217;m still at it, on my j.o.b. The saga will still continue. My duties as a parent will never be complete. Groomer Has It and Beverly Hills Groomer have benefited my life in a major way. The shows have most certainly enhanced my opportunities but in no way have they or will they ever define me as an individual. People are asking me &#8220;Where are you going from hear?&#8221; to that I reply &#8220;The same place I will always go.. Forward&#8221; I&#8217;ve got my God, my Son, and my abilities. I wont get stuck in the water. I will never go under and I will never quit. I will always be in motion. One can&#8217;t afford to stop swimming.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve got some major projects in the works. One of which I&#8217;m able to inform you about is an opportunity I received to host a weekly radio show on the &#8220;All Digital Radio Network&#8221; it will be a pet centered show were listeners will be able to cal in a ask me questions in relation to pet care or matters in general. I will keep you posted as things develop further.</p>
<p>From my Hood to yours. Peace &amp; Blessings; Artist</p>
