Love and Support

I  started  today  tired  and  a  bit  sluggish.  I  knew  I  had  so  much  to  do  and  so  little  time in  the  day.  I  finally  got  up  and  got  to  work  and  figured  out  that  it  is  better  to  build  and  team  then  take  on  the  world  alone.  I  sent  a  simple  message  out  on  facebook  and  myspace to  a  few  good  people  and  to  my  surprise  the  response  was  great.  so  many  people  to  donate  there  services  and  time  in  order  to  support  the  movement.  I  hope  that  I  can  give  them  just  a  little  of  the  boost  they  just  gave  me.  so  thank  you  to  all  of  you.  remember to  be  the  change  you  want  to  see.

I really need your help on one of our upcoming events,
"Operation Fairy God Mother" , Operation Fairy God Mother will help young women enjoy one of the most important events of their lives: their high school prom. The Event will provides free dresses, shoes and accessories to young ladies. Prom is a special time for any teenage girl, and choosing the right prom dress that's just one of the highlights of the big event. Hundreds of high school students can't afford a prom dress, and that's where the "Operation Fairy God Mother" comes in.

Girls can pick out a dress, shoes, a handbag and jewelry, and they'll get some hair and makeup tips from stylists who donated their time. Organizers are giving these girls a prom night that they will never forget, and no doubt, it raises their self esteem for these young girls.

We ask you to clean out your closet! Dresses, accessories, handbags and of shoes. Please drop off your donations at ggStrut Boutique located 821 East Broadway near the Highlands. Please bring items to Ladies Night Out with you as well! Everyone that donates a dress receives %15 off any item at ggStrut! Start donating today! Deadline is Feb 31, 2010.

Speak with you soon!

Me at my purest

Me at my purest
What is the foundation on which I stand?
Before the complexities of life triggered its wrath,
The world was so small, yet a vast open land,
I don’t remember buildings, or even paths,
Nor do I recall faces, just an open hand,
Never plotting on who I was to be,
Just indulged in the things that filled me with glee,
Gloom rarely came,
Not even on rainy days,
I, me, and we would always remain,
The simplicity of destiny had me in a daze,
As I gaze quietly upon the pad,
This pen was the only aspiration I had,
What its use was varied,
When it no longer was in use, times were scary,
Pen like a plane, pad as the earth,
Mental exploration was all worth
It, as speratic images lapsing,
No glamour, glitz, or lights flashing,
To scribe things, made me a star,
Maybe just in my own mind by far,
Though near isolation,
Silence intensified my gravitation,
To a life of illustration,
Pen inked colors of celebration,
Of an unconscious revelation,
What my eyes dreamt of was mapped by my hand,
Time passes, through and through it never fails,
My sanity lies within the comforts of my creativity
No worldly activity could subdue what I am mentally
Just disturbs the process of my identity
I will not be removed from this quiet place
The comforts in which growth glides and dies
I am greatest with little component
Because what keeps me alive is what I have always grown with
Two feeds, fuels, and festers the flame which remains too glorious,
Yet overcame hurdles to be overcome,
Two deaths I would die
Life, and the pen and pad which makes me one,
It is like my sun,
The mean heats, desire, and evolution is one,
And when it is all said and done,
I would like to be remembered as my pad.
With the pen reciting eulogies,
This is me at my purest,
An open space that has been filled with a number of ideas,
But its intention is not to be heard,
But to be seen,
By those who have the capacity to breath and believe what it means to have expression
Which lingers and travels in different directions
Doing nothing more than provoking affection
This is me at my purest
