7 months ago my life changed. This is a testament to that moment in a crowd of people that I felt this was my next stage in my life.
Life is about moving forward and moving in a direction that isn't necessarily the easiest route to go. I took a chance on life and I ran with it. I wanted answers to my situations that I've endured over the last few years but everything has its place, every person has their position.
People change like the seasons but everything, everything happens for a reason.
You put up with everything i've ever done.
I made mistakes and if i'm honest, i'm not the only one.
I wasn't able to be clean from the moment.
I'm not on drugs but right now this is my atonement.
If you love someone, you would love them even if they had hurt you.
Expression is the art so I let my words speak to you.
They tried to take me away and throw away the key.
I wanted to be left alone and let be.
Life is hard when you can't get it right.
But as long as I keep trying, i'll be alright.
Life can be stolen in one night.
But this is the night I'm brought back to life.
To this day, I've written my name so you wouldn't forget it.
I wrote about my life so you'd know I never forgot about it.
I never wanted to be the same man that the world knew.
I wanted to take it back and change it too.
To travel is to live,
But what am I if my heart is racing yet I'm not breathing.
Does it mean I'm alive?
Never in the same position twice.
I just want to get it right, not lie about it twice.
Poetically I'm in love,
With the world and a million other girls.
I just couldn't lie about how I thought of you.
What is love if I'm not with you?
What if life took away everything?
Would it still mean everything to have nothing?
I guess we may never know,
Until its over and the sun sets and it begins to snow.
This isn't about a relationship,
I've had too many that have sunk like the Titanic ship,
Its the love I had for where I was going,
What I had been trying for years to be doing.
I gave everything to where I was going,
I gave it all up just to be chasing,
Beautiful nightmares or ugly dreams,
I'm trying to get money, I'm trying to make that cream.
Now this is my time,
Time to make my life mine,
Free from the chains,
Now I'm free to dance upon the rain.

Creative Outlets
I don't update my blog much, but I guess every now and then its okay.
So i'm currently focusing on getting another creative outlet set up to fulfil more aspects of my passion. Which I couldn't be any more pleased about. But in saying that, I have multiple facets of expressing my creativity, emotions, thoughts and ideas between multiple platforms of blogging.
But currently that's not enough. I want to create platforms for my music expression which I think would be great and my current venture at the moment involves designing. I want to create visual images around my take in life as well as giving both vocal and visual aspects to it. In time, all my ideas will come to light and i'll be sharing my journey through my blogs and social media profiles. Maybe even some other forms of expression in the future.
Innovation and design has been important to me since I was a child. Looking back, I thought that a desk job was my only option but I knew it didn't suit me. I thought owning a cafe/restaurant was a realistic dream at like 8 years old was cool as hell. But that sort of faded and my first school project about business was a property development company. I even had like these cool concepts and I was 15 at a time. It then went into the entertainment, fashion, technology and even the beverage industries.
So growing up I had been through about 7 different industries and it was crazy because I didn't know where I felt like I belonged and that was tough. Especially considering I had certain passions that were met in each industry and I'm wondering which caters to my needs the best.
That's I realised that I was interested in creating customer experiences. I wanted to be in entertainment, I wanted to design. I wanted to create a multi-facet outlets that focused on an overall great flowing customer experience. Thinking outside the box was my strong suit and my love for new innovation and design felt fulfilled.
So it left me with no option but to work for myself on myself. Who could give me more of a creative outlet than myself? So I just put up my own blank canvas and I started painting my vision.
I guess everyone will have to wait to see my masterpiece come to life and all the aspects of my vision becoming a reality. One step at a time is how you reach the top of the staircase. This is my journey.

Only God Knows
You never know what the future holds because nothing is guaranteed. Love is such a beautiful thing to come across that it can be a fixation that burns within your soul.
That's why you must take every single day at a time focusing on a better you and being in love with oneself and insecurities.
Love merely brings two individuals to become one. Two halves to make a whole. We are constantly in desperate search for our other half and this can lead to our demise. Heartbreak is inevitable chasing our infatuations rather than chasing our passions. If we are passionate about one another we can conquer the world. But only when the time is right.
When the time is right the stars will align and you'll find your soulmate. Things aren't great right now if you're single but in time when you are truly ready you'll end up being in the arms of the one you are meant to spend the rest of your life with.
Certain situations have a tendency to fall apart for a reason, if you have a broken heart you have it for a reason. This is your time to learn and mend while you meet with other amazing people who will love you for you. No need to impress, no need to chase and no need to try and get them back. That's because they know what they have with you is special and they'll fight to keep you around for life.
If you're in a relationship and you're madly in love, only fate knows if you will spend the rest of your life together. You've come across your significant other for a reason and if you want a relationship to end in eternal love then you must be both willing to go the distance.
A love that is eternal is special, all you truly need is patience and it will come. It will come and never leave and that's a love worth keeping.
The Future
This is the what the future is gearing to. If you're not skilled or having dabble investments in multiple sectors, you will find it extremely push hard to push forward.
Ideas now need to be gearing towards multiple sectors rather than to solely focus on one sector.
For example, Apple who are the worlds most valuable company and second most valuable brand are one of the biggest innovative companies of the 21st century. They have not only focused on technology but design. The design being minimalistic simplicity.
Originally, sold personal computer kits before branching out to software, computers, laptops, music players, music streaming, mobiles, apps and now watches. Bringing all aspects of technology into multiple facets for distribution.
Now one of the most recognizable brands in the world and one of the leaders in the technology industry, Apple has taken in all aspects of technology as well as also focusing on the other aspects of their products to improve its overall appeal to its customers.
This too can be found in Google, with all the technological advances that they have made that has surpassed its original concept, in order to stay alive and to thrive within the industry.
The world needs both light and dark to merge together and become one. It requires the visionaries and the innovators to break down the walls of societies structural beliefs and merge multiple complexities to become a singular entity.
This is the way of the future. You can no longer be part of the structure if you wish to thrive.
Diversified combinations are the key for the steps forward.
