I wish I could see what you see in me
The shine in your eyes & brightness in your smile
Let's me know you're digging my energy
And whenever you are around me you know you don't have to pretend to be
Something your not because I will always reciprocate whatever you give to me
My intent will never be to be your enemy
Just show you love in ways that would stimulate you mentally
A cry for help is truly silent
I don't have to hear to see
What you want to communicate even when you express it so vehemently
When it's all said & done I just want to create a synergy
Never on purpose just with a purpose to conquer with a legacy
I want to live after I die and do it with serenity
The goal is to leave behind a presence that can stand independently
Until I fade I promise to only give you the real me
Just press rewind to share my story & all the sweet memories
Just know...

Let It Go
Expiration dates exists in all that we do. Milk. Food. Coupons. Medicine. Car Registration. Hot Sauce. (Gon head and act like you didn't know hot sauce had an expiration date. Keep putting that shit that's been in your cabinet since Cash Money took over in the '99 and the 2000 on your chicken if you would like!) Regardless to what, nothing lasts forever. But what about those entities that expire without a label? Jobs. People. Life. Clothes. Hurt. Anger. Defeat. How do we know when to let go?
I strongly believe God gives us warning signs and a mighty strong intuition in which we choose to ignore. We ignore these red flags for numerous reasons : comfort, stability, history, hope, image, fear. The list can go on and on and on. But simply ask yourself, "How many expired items am I keeping?"
I had my iPhone 4s since 2011. Even though numerous versions of the Apple phone had released, I didn't want a new one. It worked just fine! Okay okay okay. It was a little slow, storage was full, and it died often. No biggie. I made the choice to compromise because it did what I needed and I was content with that... Then there was last Wednesday. I dropped her dead on her face. (Yes, I personified my iPhone. Sue me.) Needless to say, her face had stretch marks aka I cracked my screen. Now typically, I would scream out unto the Apple heavens in a long, dramatic way that would be captured in slow motion in your nearest movie cinema. But I didn't...
Later that day, I also found out the department I've worked my ass off for the last 6 years will be shutting down in less than 60 days. Could my day get any worse? Now typically, I would have an anxiety attack so intense that I would launch my iphone to the Virgin Islands, and cry about all the bills that won't stop coming just because my job did. But I didn't...
Rapper Notorious B.I.G. once said on the track Sky's the Limit "Only Make Moves When Ya Heart's In It." And I knew my heart was no longer into that phone. My heart was no longer into my line of business. And I knew for a very long time that both items had expired in my life. I held on for numerous EXCUSES: comfort, stability, history, hope, image, fear. The list can go on and on and on.
But I learned a very valuable lesson on that day: You have to let go of things or they will let go of you.
Expiration dates exists in all that we do. Milk. Food. Coupons. Medicine. Car Registration. Hot Sauce. Jobs. People. Life. Clothes. Hurt. Anger. Defeat. And as we've all learned, iPhones too!!! Holding on to things for the sake of memory isn't going to cut it. So, how many items in your life has expired or will expire soon? And if your items don't have a clear label of expiration, is your heart in it? Don't make the choice to compromise because it does what you need it to do. I challenge you to break that contentment! Let go of these things or these things will be forced to let go of you.

Morning Koffee
Don't force it
Just let it come naturally
And if it's for you
Then it's yours organically
If it's from the heart
Then ashamed you don't have to be
All that matters are the roots
Just know shade will grow eventually...
Apply It How You Will
I'm Just Saying How You Feel
