On the central line on the way home from Westfield shopping centre I encountered a man clutching a can of Stella Artois preaching about Jesus. It wasn’t how he had almost stumbled and lost his balance on the way to his seat which was next to mine (ironically I was praying he wouldn’t sit there). ItContinueContinue reading “The drunk evangelist…”

2016 in summary…
In short, absence is 2016. I’ve felt overjoyed seeing friends transition from singleness to married life and have been thrown into sorrow with the wave of deaths in Hollywood. I’ve also met some incredible artists in the music world including William Bell, Dobet Gnahore and the Roy Hargrove Quintet, could 2016 be as random as my posts,ContinueContinue reading “2016 in summary…”
Greatness
Be not afraid of greatness. Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them – #Shakespeare
Milestones…
Today marks 4 years after i graduated and a couple of months ago ‘Beneath the Canvas’ became 5….what is it about milestones that make us reflect on our successes, failures, good moments and bad?

I remember this feeling when Michael Jackson went away and now I’m holding on to theContinueContinue reading “The Purple Reigned…..”

It’s funny how you think that no one will ever understand what you have been through until one day a friend hears your story and says “heard it all before”.

Let it burn…..
I have succumb to the bug that is…….the burn out. I confess I am a workaholic, perfectionist and proudly idealistic in my thinking. I want to save the world everyday but the only thing is that I am one person. In the space of trying to prove my worth I have done the unspeakable andContinueContinue reading “Let it burn…..”
Unveiled….
Home……
Home is where we started but my heart left to go home Still longing to be united with the glaze of winter snow To have and to hold, to cherish and the truth was told This temple has grown cold without a heart for comfort Inhaling in nothingness and exhaling a cloud of dust ShouldContinueContinue reading “Home……”
