Inspired ♥

I'm learning how to drown out the constant noise, that is such an inseparable part of my life. I don't have to prove anything to anyone. I only have to follow my heart, and concentrate on what I want to say to the world. I RUN my world.

Beyonce

It's been incredibly too long, since I've last updated this blog, and for that I am embarrassed. Yet, this post comes at a perfect time, because you all should know, I write the best when I am inspired. Today, I am beyond moved. I'm touched, I'm in awe, and for once, I've never been more clear of what's important.

This morning, I was surfing the web, as I usually do, when I decided to watch Beyonce's documentary on her journey of the making of her new album '4'. I lie to you not, but as I watched, I found myself in tears, 'full fledged, I'm so proud of who you are tears'. As I watched her speak, dance, conduct business, and more than anything convey to me, and anyone else who has watched, or anyone who has the honor to know her personally, her LOVE for what she does. Something happened though, something that I needed to happen. I needed to see hard work at its peak. I needed to see someone who has put the time in, to be at the point where taking a year off, was WELL deserved.

I believe in dreams, I believe in the pursuit of making that dream a reality. I thrive off the passion, and love, of an artist, because deep down if I've never said it, I have the heart and soul of one.

I'm going to let you all in on a little secret. 'If you LOVE what you do, you won't mind the work.' I know so many talented people, that it scares me, that the world won't ever see how gifted they are. There are NOT enough risk takers in this world, and I say this with the most positive voice I can bestow on you all. Don't fall into the traps of being content in what society tells us life is. Don't fade out, because like so many other people, you were scared to fulfill your dream. No matter what that dream may be, please put all your energy into excelling in it, solely based on your immense love for it. I recently started a company with two of my friends that we named 'The RedEyeGroup' and I can't even begin to try and express my love for it. I have had the pleasure to meet so many amazing people, since the start, and I am going to work the hardest to allow the whole world to see what I've already been seeing. Talent in raw form.

I love Beyonce, for the woman she inspires me to be. I love her for setting an example to all young girls, that if you work hard enough, love what you're doing, believe in yourself enough to tune out all the negativity that will come your way, that you can accomplish anything you want. I always do my best to work hard, but watching this documentary allowed me to see, how much harder I NEED to work, as well as all of you. Whatever is is that you love, please do it. Whether your dream is to become a doctor, lawyer, entrepreneur, teacher, actress, filmmaker, producer, singer, whatever it is, do it because you know how great you'd be at it. Anything else, would be cheating yourself of the life you DESERVE.

I love to write, I love to talk, I love to act, I love seeing people I love, doing what they love. I made a promise to myself September 20Th, 2010, that I would not allow myself to not fulfill my dreams, and I refuse to break that promise. Fight for what you believe in, and for what you deserve. There are a lot of people in this world, living their life with a million what ifs. I refuse to look back, wondering if I made a mistake in not pursuing my dreams. Don't just dream, please, I beg of you, put in the time and dedication to make that dream, a reality. I am going to try my hardest to accomplish everything I told myself I would. Even if it doesn't happen, I don't want to look back ten years from now, asking myself why didn't I go for it. Never be afraid of failing, or falling. The pursuit is what makes the success that much more enjoyable.

I love you all, because even if you don't know it, you all inspire me. I haven't updated in months, and yet I still get emails, facebook comments, & views to know that somewhere out there, you all are still checking in to see if I've updated. That means so much to me. We need people to believe in us, other than ourselves, because it allows you to know that the love you have for something is well placed.

I want my younger sisters, my younger friends, my younger cousins, younger children to look up to me, because I never gave up. I watched this documentary & I looked up to HER. If you have not had the opportunity to watch it yet, I strongly suggest you do. It will wake your dreams, if they've somehow been pushed to the sidelines, or allow the person that's been grinding to see that dreams do come true if you believe enough in yourself. It brought tears to my eyes, it made me smile, it made me laugh, it made me feel as proud of her, as her mother is. I want to be just as proud of myself, and allow my parents to be even more proud. I want to be proud of all of you, because I know a lot of you are great.


I will not sit on the sidelines, knowing there are so many people living their dream. I'm going to live mine, will YOU?
