Hey guys

Whoever has been with me since I was Dope P Mosby knows I have always admired and lowkey envied Karen Civil. Back when I was doing music reviews, I always wondered how I could get to where she’s at. She was all on Instagram with all of my favorite artists, and I wanted that too. But what in the hell does she do? Like what is her job title? I didn’t have a clue but I desired to be like her. I think she worked for Beats by Dre at one time but I didn’t know her job description. Anyway, when I saw she was putting out a book this year I was so excited, and I knew I was going to support. So I spent my little coins and ordered her book Be You & Live Civil. Previously, I had only read motivational/self help books by Joel Osteen and Iyanla Vanzant. My book finally came and it was sixty pages of large font, double spaced. I was so disappointed. I expected more. Maybe there were some gems in this small package. So I read it (in one sitting) and I still felt disappointed. Civil briefly and in a very general way explained how she got her internship and how she built a playground in Haiti. The only thing I took from the book was the “jar of blessings”. I don’t know what exactly I expected from the book or even what I wanted to get out of it. But it didn’t leave me feeling satisfied. Don’t get me wrong. I’m still a fan of Civil. This is just my personal opinion. And I’m just a young woman with an Instagram without pictures with celebrities or vacations.
