dedicated to YOU.

I know I haven't blogged in more then a month & people have been asking me, where's the new blog? Well, honestly I've been too busy & when I did have a moment to blog, I couldn't think of a subject that "touched" me at that moment. That is until now. Lately, I've been getting a little ticked off at a number of folks who have been underestimating my work ethic, calling me "lazy", & point blank telling me I don't do anything. Not to mention people saying how "rude" I am for not making time for them in my life. Normally, I ignore the words & go on about my business. But as of late, It's really been getting under my skin. I do entirely too much work for someone to have the audacity to call me "lazy" if I'm not out at an event shooting pics, interviewing, filming or networking; I'm at home searching for news, updating, editing (pics & video), setting up interviews/events and promoting. Basically getting my company, my dream to where I envision it to be. I am in no way complaining about the amount of work I have, because I actually love it. All I'm saying is, don't be so quick to talk shit or downplay me or my situation when you haven't walked an hour in my shoes. For the people who say things like "you can't talk? well excuuuuuse me" or "you're so rude" There are deadlines I have to meet. Sometimes I don't have time to return a phone call right away, I'm doing something dammit. I'm not just laying in bed daydreaming. Oh and another thing that pisses me off lately: I'll say "I'm tired" and people will reply with "You're always tired, you mad lazy"....How about you just shut the hell up? CLEARLY, I'm tired because I didn't sleep. Nighttime separates the people that really want to live their dreams from the people that are still dreaming. Anyway, I'm turning this post into a venting session, so I'm going to reel it back in lol...I write all this to say; Not everything that glitters is gold. It looks fun and easy, but it takes A.L.O.T of hard work and dedication. What looks like a simple 2 minute task to you, took about 6-8 hours for me. Hell sometimes, I work so hard on things that I forget to eat! So before you open your mouth to tell me (or someone else) how we aren't doing "anything" open your eyes & you might actually see someone making a dream become a reality. It might not be what YOU want it to be at the moment, but you betta believe Silent is gonna get rich or die trying! Ya dig!
