"I'm so overwhelmed, I don't know where to start or what to do... so I just won't do anything."
Have you ever been driving with your destination in mind, the excitement and anticipation of getting there slowly building up, only to realize that somewhere along the way, you've lost your sense of direction? So you pull over to the side of the road to re-focus, get your bearings straight and continue your journey.
I don't know about ya'll, but I often have times like this in real life. I done had to talk to God like, "Aye Lord, pull this car (life) over, it feel like I'm bout to throw up." That being said, if you're wondering where I've been, I had to pull the car over and get my bearings straight for a minute. But, I'm back and pettier than ever!
Here's what's been poppin' in the land of Aintbritfunny:
On April 26, 2018, I hosted a really dope show for AFROTRAK at Subterranean in Chicago, IL. Headlining, was the incredibly talented SamTrump & The Soul Vortex featuring some on fire performances from Adam Ness and Nola Ade! If ya'll missed this show, you really missed a treat. Hell, them performances was so good I went home and wrote me a few songs.
This was my second time hosting an AFROTRAK show or any show in general for that matter. It's always good vibes, good people, good music and if you play your cards right, you might even find you a good man/woman. I love the spaces that founder of AFROTRAK, Mike Orie is creating for young black folks. And it has been a pleasure watching his brand grow and being a part of it. So, if you're in the Chicago area this weekend, pop out to the upcoming day party on Saturday, June 9, 2018. Ya'll know ya'll old and like to be in the bed by midnight. This is perfect for you.
Ya'll, I have a lot of new things that I will be sharing with you this summer. Things like: more blog content, new tees in the Aintbritfunny store and maybe even a new stomach because I have been trying to do these sit ups while I've been away.
The moral of the story is, sometimes, you have to pull over, catch your breath and re-focus. But that doesn't mean that you stop going. I understand how sometimes watching the people around you grow and move forward can make you feel you feel like you're behind. Not so. Remember, everyone is in their own car, on their own journey. Let your peers be an inspiration to you. It's honestly what has kept me on my toes. Like, "Hey, they made it...I can make it too!" You might get a little jealous, but that's normal. Just put out your foot and trip them when they walk past you. It'll make you feel better. Help 'em up though. Help 'em up.
