Well, my last post was a complete lie – an urge to do something meaningful that didn’t work out as planned.

But you know what? Things worked out for the better… but I’ll get back to that.

I keep referencing my last post, reading these goals I had set for myself. And with a slight smile of sorrow, I kind of wish I had completed all I had set out for. It may also be the reason that I’ve kept from this blog for so long – a reminder of a promise that I didn’t keep.

ALRIGHT. That’s enough sadness talk because you know why?

Because life has been fucking GRAND.

In the time I’ve been out, I jumped jobs, I’ve learned. Oh my god, I’ve learned so much (I’m going to blame the absence of my time on this). I’ve rode the roller coaster of life. I’ve matured, and as I reflect on the last 3 years, the grind for the dream remains, but I don’t see it so much of a grind anymore? Life kinda just flows.

A silky smooth jazz piece with a hip hop beat to contain its structure. A poetic verse to intensify the depth – a word of wisdom from the self.

I’m riding the coat tails of that dream, and as we all go through the struggles, the tribulations, and the hard times, I can’t help but appreciate the fact that we as humans have to go through all that shit: to fail, to hit rock bottom, to break.

Lol, as always, I’m all over the place – but yo, the grind alluding to life and skateboarding is all the same. You strive to perfect whatever you’re aspiring for. And you may not always land it; but when you fall, just get back up, and kick.. and push.

You’ll eventually land it.
