I prefer not thinking at times and just actioning. I feel like when I start thinking it’s sooooo easy for me to over-theorise the simplest of things; which leads to procrastination and doubt.

Life has been a bit of a whirlwind lately lol, but I still need to go out and make the peopledem dance regardless of my mood/feels and I’mma still do it with excellence every time!! Just be cautious of your approach. I’m terrible at lying and I can’t force vibes so at times my face may have a “relaxed” uniformity to it, I say this all to say, looking at these pictures taken and the flowers picked that I’m just a delicate furnishing of the planet sent from God, that often times may be misunderstood. Wow, that was poetic.

Now that I’ve stated that, I guess I should get the assignment cracking.

I hated academia, KMT. I felt as if the teachers aimed to turn a circle into a square; that’s where my rebellious nature was birthed from nursery. I was really that kid that’d be in the corner of the class drawing by myself, then when others wanted to join I’d exit with speeeed and go do something else. Getting me to write a think piece at this age kinda reignited that schoolboy energy, and TRUST ME no one can get to me to do anything I don’t wanna do lol.

I’m the kind of person that if I agree to do something I’m really gonna do it to the best of my abilities and one thing I can guarantee for sure is that I’m gonna do it in “Sky Time” (a quote coined by the mandem, meaning: 1. Arrives when he wants 2. Provides a vibe, then gets home safely in quick succession 3. Also pretty efficient and super diligent when inspired).

I was born into music. Sometimes it’s my peace, other times my biggest bane. I create every day naturally, little or large. You see those days when I’m feeling uninspired - hahahaha DIRE, but as I gain wisdom, I’m way less harsh on myself and I dance with the darkness; we’ve learned how to jive with each other and I definitely take the lead - both hands on the waist kinda vibes.

My why is simply to inspire. I create to influence people and birth ideas. I think the highest form of creativity is Children (that’s why I don’t have any lol) I don’t think I am ready to pour into another human like that as of yet, but try know when I do that little Superstar is gonna have everything I own at their disposal purely and unapologetically. P.S. When you’re old enough to read this little princes or little princess you the BESTEST.

“The World is local” anything you desire is at reach, I haven’t failed myself yet, anything I’ve wanted I’ve received; the Ferrari 812 Competizione and all that blah blah blah soon forward ;) .

I love you Shaun and I wouldn’t even dream about being someone else. Literally, the most creative person I know. Your progress has been tremendous, funny that was your tag when you were like 15 but with 2 g’s and you stay inclining. Continue to serve and be a great steward of the creator, don’t forget it’s a sin to not utilise the powers he has bestowed on you.

Big up lemonade for refreshing my mental palette and challenging me to be vulnerable in text form. I’m good at this, I might write a book one day.

Stay flying my boy.
