Artist Kahlil Gibran once stated that, “We choose our joy and sorrows long before we experience it.” I did not want to accept that as a truth, however the more that I thought about it, I begin to realize that my experiences were some side effects of a choice I had made. I’m guessing that the moral of the story is to make good choices. While prepping for a new documentary, we found a bin full of old mini DV tapes. In that bin was a tape labeled “Start Something” and I laughed before smiling at the thought of me and my brothers filming our conversations with the women in our lives.

Taking revenge even against someone often hurts you more. It takes an incredible amount of energy to think, plan and execute on revenge. You may think, “Oh I would never hurt anybody!” But revenge isn’t always about physically hurting another person. Something as simple as spreading a false rumor can have a butterfly effect that almost always comes back to you. I remember talking with my ex’s aunt and uncle and said somethings about my brother.

We even get caught up in the fights of others, sometimes before we even understand the reasons. I’ve been spending more and more time, fighting for the things “I” love. I’ve been putting in the work. Building key family brands and helping organizations tell their stories visually is my passion.

The quickest way to see further is to ask someone that has been there. I could read a book and get a deeper vision that you could imagine. Where I come from, it’s easy to feel limited as if life has nothing to offer. Over time people embraced the feeling and even named places “the trap”. Then years later “Trap” music is introduced. Imagine an entire culture born around the concept of staying in place and protecting that place so viciously that outsiders are scared to enter. Feeling trapped is a trap within itself. I know the sensation of not having options. It is an illusion of the mind. It is a projection painted by those around you in the same predicaments.

Author and motivational speaker Roger Crawford states that, “Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.” I spent a large part of my life running from what challenged me or rather hiding from it. I have always remained where it is safe. I’ve spent years being a risk adverse rule follower. As I got older and my responsibilities grew, I found that encountering challenges was inevitable. I learned to thrive when challenged. By doing the research, setting a plan, and executing on the task, I found
