Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive.  And then go and do that.  Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.  ~Attributed to Howard Thurman

Today I was thinking about passion. It’s more than just a word it more like a lifestyle. You live it, breathe it and love it all the same. There is no such thing is “can’t” when it comes to your passion. If you have the vision for your passion, best believe that it will come to past. It’s second nature and nothing else compares. It’s a blessing to have a passion. Many people go through life not knowing what their purpose is, let alone their passion. If you have one without the other you are one step closer to living your best life. But all this is beside the point. I was more so focused  on what makes my passion different from the rest of this world. It’s guaranteed that the idea that you thought was so “grand” has been thought of by a million other people. And 9 times out of ten they actual put those thoughts into action and are doing the damn thang! That has got to me more times than once. I love what I do! It’s in my heart! I think about it more times than I should.  Back to the question at hand! What makes my passion different from the rest of the world? Simply put: It’s MY passion! Nobody can conjure up the same type of love that I have for what I do. No matter how similar the idea, the concept is pure and like no other. My passion is like art. No one piece of art will have the same meaning and beauty in the eye of  its beholder. There is no such thing as slacking around or putting forth minimal effort. This is what I do and if my name is going to be branded on it, the process of production has to be equivalent to perfection! So I say all this to say let your passion seep through your pores, because it’s yours. God has divine blessing specifically set aside for individuals. We may have the same passion but God surely didn’t bless us with the same exact love for it! It’s ours! Let’s own and embrace our passion! Because simply put its yours and nobody else’s!

Lately I've been playing in make-up. I really like the natural look, haven't got any where near close to learning the extra dramatic looks. So here it is! I mixed some MAC studio with some Loreal and the gloss is Sephora.O yea, I haven't really posted any close ups of my hair so for those of you who care about texture and all that yippity yap!

PETA Fur Campaign

This post was way overdue! I haven't mentioned anything about animal welfare sense I've been blogging! Please forgive me. I'll start by saying I'm not as extreme as PETA. That's their job to convince people to be vegans, animal rights activist etc. Me on the other hand would love if everyone cared about animals and became sensitive to their welfare, but I wont be the one to convince you to do that. I don't ever want to come off as some holier than thou, I'm better than you vegetarian! Which a lot of vegetarians come off as. I'd rather present you with the information and allow you to decide on your own if its something that you want to do! If I change one person that's great and if not that's ok too. At the very least I changed myself!

Now on the subject of my girl Tarji! I loved her before she decided to join in on the campaign. But now I really love her. She looks stunning and I could not appreciate her more for stepping out and stepping up! Go check out the behind the scenes of the photoshoot over here

Score: I'm Deeply In Love

You'll see me soon rocking some Dr. Martens!
