Thought of the day 12/20/19

I watched a movie the other day that reminded of the freedoms of being young. I had this overwhelming sadness that came over me. Questions like, did I make the right choices, did I choose the right paths or would I change things if I had the chance to go back. I imagined running through Hiawatha Park around 10yrs old without a single care in the world except that it was sunny and the heat was on my back. Everything felt golden and tomorrow was no fear because I would only be adding one more day to being 10 years old. 10 is such a great age for me personally because I had no regrets at all, how could I? Because I had so few years of life at age 10 how could I care about what’s behind me. So then in present time I got to thinking, many people say things like “you only live once” which is used to remind us to live life to its absolute fullest. I decided I don’t like that saying. I prefer to say you actually live every day and you only ever die once. So every day is this blessing. I was in the store the other day feeling stressed about certain things and thought of how lucky I was to be walking down the aisle. On my own two feet, articulate, intelligent and with plenty of friends. So this message goes out there to anyone feeling down. You live every day you wake up and you only die once so breath every minute like it’s glorious because it is. The picture above is of West Seattle, my home town. I love West Seattle.

Czon Live @Street Fair 7/13/19

Screenshot of an IG video I uploaded. I was walking into Street Fair located in West Seattle, WA and specifically in the WS Junction which is like Downtown to WS. They shut down the street once a year for the whole weekend and include trinket kiosks, beer gardens, food and novelty stores etc and live bands at the far end of the street. I spotted this MC just with a microphone hooked up to a speaker and it seemed most of the passing people didn’t notice what he was doing. I did. He was rhyming and flowing completely freestyle to everything he saw. If you walked by he would uplift you with lyrics to what you were wearing or doing. Completely positive and very talented. He made some references to my tattoos and red shoes but kept going with his flow into other things about Seattle and where he was at. I was very impressed and took a card from him,dropped some cash, dapped knuckles and kept walking. Then I looked him up on youtube and he had a few really cool music videos with his son. His son only 5yrs old raps with him and they duel the mic together, not only is it moving to see them together its equally impressive to see this child with such talent. Also not many if possibly No One is MC’ing with their kid like this making Czon potentially the first ever in the streets of Seattle. Nice guy, well talented and you can find more of his videos on IG: @czondeluna / @niccodeluna or youtube Czon Delunatic. Check them out!
