I’ve very much been enjoying the process of self-discovery as of late. Embracing the bumpy road and movements it has facilitated within me have only led me to practice more open-mindedness, more gratitude, more love, all with an emphasis on the self. The passion and the vision within burns like the hottest of flames and I just want to spread and reach the masses with the universal messages of life and love.

I’m reminded – by myself if by no one else – that I know myself better than anyone ever will. I’m reminded every day that I am different, that we are all different, and what makes me different is mine to embrace, to discover, and see to its very end. People will live their calling out differently. People assign their goals, set their prices, reach for their dreams differently, but the end-goal is remarkably similar. We seek a place in this planet doing something we love to do, something that sets all the bullshit aside and makes the trouble worth it.

Being patient is also at the forefront of this process, understanding that it takes time to create great things. Greatness takes manifestation, pride, practice, meditation, and faith. It takes the proper energy, the proper intentions, and the proper timing. For a while, I carried spite in thinking that I wasn’t where I ought to be yet, that my progress as an artist has been too slow, but now, I more deeply understand that you can’t expedite what the universe has in plan for you.

Among all my memories, good and bad, I’m astonished to know that I am still me. I’ve remained to be intact with myself, to carry myself with a high identity to myself and to the peers to which it matters to. My family, my best friends, those I see on a high wavelength, reciprocate that to me. Most importantly, I reciprocate that within. I know I am where and who I need to be to get where I want to go. No one else could do this. Only me.

I continue to keep all three eyes open, to voice my mind, to question the world and seek my own answers. I continue to ponder my thoughts, document my life, and seek further into my calling. Reminding myself again and again along the way to appreciate where I am, where I’ve been, and where I’m headed..
