Tough Days

Today was a long stressful day, filled with my roommates bitching about non-sense. I could get into all the semantics, but it would be pointless, what is that really going to solve. Anyway, besides all the bullshit I dealt with today, I had an amazing day with a beautiful woman. It's so refreshing to see black pride and power prevail through the chains and shackles of America. I live in Harlem and I'm honored to walk these same gritty streets as the greats who came before me.

Sometimes I get wrapped up in all the drama of life and I don’t step back and realize how far I have come. The young man who my family is so proud of. The entrepreneur that I always aspired to become. The courage to endure critics and take rejection because I know I love myself and that is all that matters to me. The mastery of love is a difficult and complex thing that will take me years to perfect.

I guess ultimately what I’m trying to say is that despite all the drama we create in our lives and yes we create it. We must understand that it is there for a reason and it is there to teach us. To make you a stronger person than you were before. The power to realize you made a mistake and rectify it. The chance to say damn I didn’t charge enough or I didn’t have the greatest audio. Don’t beat yourself up about, accept what you learned from the experience and move forward. Life is about capturing the brief moments we have and at 26 I’m happy for every breath of air I take.
