My purpose is bigger then my feelings
My art will live longer then me
What I create is important
What I do is important
My existence
My experience
All reflect themselves
In my art
In my words
In my smile
In my walk
My presence
My life reflects through me
Through my pores
Through my finger tips
It has lasting implications
Whatever I leave here
Someone else may one day find
If it’s my kids
My friends
Or a stranger
My something
Will hold value
In another’s hands
Eyes
Ears
Heart
And mind
My life matters
Because it effects others
Your life matters
because it effects others
Life is valuable
Life is not lived alone
You are never truly alone
You are constantly surrounded by the presence of other
In the clothes you wear
To the streets you walk across
You move
You breathe
The same matter
That someone else once did
You stand because someone made it so
You have a path to travel because it was paved for you
The footsteps you leave will guide the next person
The steps you leave will let someone know you were there
We matter
Our futures matter
We are futures
Just as we will be past
Black excellence is not achieved when your standards are less then excellent.

Michelle Obama meets her deadlines
Serena Williams doesn’t come late to practice. Nor does she come unprepared.
Madam CJ Walker didn’t make her million by letting her dreams stay dreams.
Oprah didn’t wait for things to be handed to her. she created and fulfilled opportunities by her own means.
We are not excellent simply because our skin reflects gold.
We are excellent because we work for it.
Because we are blessed and highly favored.
God doesn’t give to those who don’t work.
God does not give to those who do not work.
Ask and you shall receive , seek and ye shall find, knock and the door will opened unto you.
If you don’t ask you won’t receive
Pray for everything and receive double that.
Seek and you will find.
If you walk around clueless but do not search you can’t find the treasures that are hidden away only for you.
Everyone may be looking for gold but it’s only though God that you will find it.
Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all these things will be added unto you.
If the door of opportunity presents its self to you and you do not present yourself to it. You’re going to remain in the same spot outside of a closed door.
The door is not waiting for you to knock.
You have to get up and knock on that door before someone else does.
You have to go find that door, to knock.
You have to ask for the door to even be a door before you can go find it and knock on it.
.
.
.
To be black and blessed.
To put God first.
To work for your blessings.
To know that your skin color does not define you.
WE ARE THE REAL ART .

Reblogging once again. I didn’t hear myself the first time. I was sitting in the back. I’m working my way to the front of the room so I can get the message loud and clear ✌🏾
