Peanuts
OK, I can’t tell you everything about what I’m doing or what I want to do or what I’m working on but all I can say is I keep seeing peanuts I keep thinking about when I first started podcasting and how I had goals to do a lot of different things for kids and some of the goals had to do with art actually all of them because podcasting isn’t an art culinary is an art
Drawing is an art music is an art, and all these goals have different things that branch into adult sectors and kids sectors that I want to branch into. I’m not gonna say everything but I do remember being a kid and watching this cartoon but I also remember being a kid.
I remember how important it was for me to see the Peanuts comics but I also remember how important it was for me to see the boondocks comics as a kid comic book strips are dope but something about seeing these comic book strips in the newspaper it was like having channel 33 Nickelodeon in a book
I just realized how important it was for me to be like a newspaper have the news have the sports have the information have the media, but have that comic strip some of them were informational. Some of them were just for kids. Some of them were for adults some of them were about politics and I realize we need to be like a comic strip now.
We need to be eclectic in our mindset, understanding that there is fluidity within us and other people understanding that even within a cartoon or a comic stroke, something that was probably made for just children. There is a sense of knowledge wisdom think about watching the cartoon Bluey, which is made for kids, but you see a lot of of the messages that you would see in the Bible in the Quran in scripture. My goal is to do something for God am I innocent and perfect by any means no I’ve had a bunch of skeletons in my closet and I think through this journey, I want to show that I don’t wanna show me being perfect. I don’t wanna show me having everything on point.
I want to show my flaws. I wanna show my moments of weakness less temptation but I also wanna share a universal message. I wanna share how families can get broken by unnecessary stuff. I wanna talk about great things happening in families new birth death like Mr. Rogers did but I want more than just that I look at people why admire like Tabatha Brown like your advantage and I realize that there are other people that I have admired my teachers my coworkers who made it through cancers, are domestic violence, people in the shelter, who made it through crazy situations.
And it doesn’t matter whether or not I’m talking to these people are not I admire them. I remember how important it was a young 21 or 20 year-old I think I was. I’m not quite sure and I visited Newark New Jersey and I had a book and my brother . Richard wrote on my book. Just write Sis and I remember making that one of my podcast episodes or a few of my songs because it was important to me with someone or something is important whether you talk to them or not you carry that message with them when you have a message you carry it with you when you have a purpose you carry it with you
The purpose may start off simple you may not have money to make it bigger. It may start off with a budget of a peanut butter, jelly sandwich, and a bag of peanuts on the side but next thing you know you can afford peanut butter cookies, peanut butter, crackers, and I know why was so important why God kept saying Pb&J Blerd Home because that was my origin. Me being a kid watching these comic strips, the boondocks peanuts, not having money, but for peanuts boiled peanuts, having them in the country for the first time and bring back this nostalgic memory. God kept showing it to be over and over and over again my purpose is right in front of me. peanuts
The crazy thing is when I was in the shelter one of my roommates nicknames for her children was peanut and it just now dawned on me and it dawned on me because I remember looking at her post and I look at him as a nephew I remember thinking how important he was and even the story about her oldest son is important to me. The story about her life is important to me. It taught me so much about who I am and the crazy thing is she is an artist. I’m starting to realize a lot of things come together you don’t even try to make them come together.
