Kiss the Sky

(This picture is sooo dope...when I got a sneak peak, I had to share it! Photography by the man himself...Hannibal Matthews. If your not familiar with his work then you should be...He's one of my homies, check out more of his work!)

Just like that picture...I feel like I'm touching the sky and nothing can stop me! It's so crazy how the world works around you. Put something out in the universe, be optimistic and it will find you through anything. Jump through loops, hop over barrels...slow poke through the pouring rain, it may not come when you want it and damn sure not on your terms but God has a way to give you everything you ask for and all you have to do is receive and accept his blessings. You just have to believe and need what you ask for. Yesterday my day was SO awesome! Nothing in particular happened, just little signs that things were all headed in my direction...I just found my self in a great mood, still today too.

Everything around me just speaks...OK I'm not crazy or anything :) but seriously in due time everything around you will reveal itself. Whether a hindrance to let go, help to capitalize on or just something or someone that helps make your world go round. Everything and everyone is put in your life for a reason or a season. Its up to you to realize whether it's a positive addition for your life or not. Some things are worth holding on to while others are not. Once revealed...its up to you to rid trouble and/or encourage excellence. Through the ups and downs... my life is grand and I wouldn't trade it for anyone else's. Everything is in my favor cause I want it that way and you should want the same for yourself to.

By the time I reached Stitches yesterday the Doctor had already left so it was just me and Les, he's one of our tailors. He's old school with major skills. He used to be in a singing group something like the Temptations and would make all the uniforms. The man is nice with it too, he taught me how to make a vest last night. A vest may sound easy to make, but its definitely not, but it's a for sure sign that ill need to keep him on my team too. I keep telling the Doctor that Ill have to put Stitches on my back and carry us...he's all for it though "just pay me the big bucks!!" The other day we had to get a shirt order out for Jazz of Dru Hill, who by the way has decided to get the group back going. The Doctor was out of town and of course had to call me :) The shirt was pretty easy to me but of course the Doctor was worried that something would go wrong...but of course I pulled through with flying colors and you know I had to let him know that I was the Doctor.


So for those of you who are interested in Embellished for men...dont worry I wont leave you hanging! Not quite along the lines of the shirt for Jazz but Like the Doctor always says "I got you".
