permalink My dad, today in Hawai’i. Most of my family is there now on vacation. Even though he and I didn’t get along for a lot of my life, there will never be someone more influential in who I become, whoever, whatever that is. [photo credit: Daniel Dearo (probably on his iPhone) edited in mine in lightbox]. (Photo by ericathompson)
**edit: hopefully my mom will understand that statement. it’s insanely hard to describe the mental environment i grew up in. mostly love and nurture from my mother….and..well….my parents are quite the opposite. my journey is definitely mostly towards the things i love, yet i’ve always had a stronger fight against things i don’t believe in. and, thus my mother should understand that statement and the original.
i adore my parents. love you guys.

“A huge thank you to Esthero, James Poyser, Lalah Hathaway, RJD2 and our many other friends for taking time out of their busy schedules to support YahZarah and her upcoming album! Video editing by Matt Koza” - Phonte

[i was asked by @phontigallo to do this video for the formerly upcoming release of Yahzarah’s ‘The Ballad of Purple St James’ album. i’m in the pink towards the beginning :]

i don’t like making friends because the last thing i want is to lose one.

i guess i kept busy for so many years because i didn’t want to fall in love. the one thing on earth that i want. because it can hurt so bad until you figure it out. whenever that is.

so i want to get back to work, this year off has shown me so much. but now, the reason i want to work, to be busy, feels like a cop out.

i’m stuck.
