Rashidat.

After my extremely brief experience with the art of yoga, 
I have come 2 appreciate the complexity. 

It's not as easy as it may appear folks.
Muscles were used that haven't been since...
Took me nearly a week 2 recover. lol

Anyways, here's an upcoming sensation 
with a real knack for the craft.

is her name & a Chi town native at that!

Here's a PW2 video edit showcasing her personal side.



Whaddup gurl!;)





Peace!...with 2 fingers;)

X-Man.

Growing up in the inner city of Chicago with gangs, 
violence & hopelessness, there wasn't much 2 look 
up 2 on the positive spectrum. 

Options were extremely limited while diligently 
searching for something truly impactful until one day 
getting my hands on a small paperback 
Autobiography of Malcolm X by Alex Haley 
at a local thrift store....
A thrift store. Really? (lol)...
things surely happens for a reason;)

This is when things began 2 open up with the ambition 2 read about history, culture & identity. Amazed at how such a book about a young man with a troubled past while facing the odds during the 1960's could make a massive impact. 

One thing that stood out about Malcolm was his motivation 2 teach self while incarcerated making him one of our prolific thinkers of that time.  

If he could achieve such a task, 
then what's my excuse?

From that point, life drastically changed knowing despite 
the condition in which lived, perseverance 
with a bold fearless approach would 
pay off 2 be so much more.

Knowing this, it become my duty 
& responsibility 2 ensure that his life is remembered with a greater appreciation. 

Hmmph...I wonder how would things be today
 if someone like him ever existed for he wasn't 
just any ordinary man....he was.. 
X-man.

(Yep!)...



Peace!...with 2 fingers;)
