last year, MISS RACHEL LEVENE, a teacher at CENTRAL PARK EAST MIDDLE SCHOOL asked me to participate in “CAREER DAY” at her school. since then, i have been alongside our mutual friends SCOTT WILLIAMS and HARRY MCNALLY of PEGLEG NYC. since last year was such a blast, this year would be no exception (my faithful blog readers will remember). at the age i’m at now, kids of that age can equally annoy and inspire me. don’t act like you can’t agree!
*they got my name right, finally!
*JEN and ME, repping VIOLETTE.
*SCOTT WILLIAMS aka YOUNG SCOOZLE and HARRY MCNALLY repping REGLEG NYC.
*when they found i directed music videos, the next question was “for who? anyone famous”? i stumbled upon the name JUSTIN BIEBER which put a few kids into a frenzy. i felt cool for a moment.
i have to mention. there was a kid i had the honor of meeting, that blew me away. quite literally, he brought tears to my eyes. how can i explain this without sounding like a silly girl or some weirdo? in 6th grade, kids are all at a strange point in life – causing them to act outside their true nature. this kid was far different than all the kids. in fact, he was different than any kid i’ve met. his spirit and energy was so sweet and so pure. while he stood at our table he was so kind and open, as if everyone in his eyes was equal. it made me cry – seriously. i had to walk away. i was not only blown away by his soul, but buy the horrible fear that he would be stripped away of that innocence. the thought of this boy still makes me weak. i don’t remember ever meeting anyone so sweet, it hurt…
i wish you all could have met him. i’ve cried that past 3 times that i’ve tried to explain him to friends…

...I connected to the beauty of that encounter - through you.
The purity of that energy will be an ETERNAL muse for you. And your concern for that boy's destiny will be a divine shield for him - a living prayer of protection.
It calls to mind this line from the Joni Mitchell song 'A Case of You' that says ...love is touching souls..."
(on the last part) i'm trying to understand, but i'm still confused :/
vashtie loves the kids! lol :o)
ya like what exactly made you cry? was it like nostalgia from your child hood??
What you're doing for the kids by going to their school and participating in activities for them is GREAT! Especially for the girls Va$htie !! You're showing them a sense of responsibility and a sense of adulthood !!
Kudos for u V !!
If only more people could embody his "being".
