Cincy vibes all day y’all.
Let’s not use social media as a crutch to pretend we are doing good — just because we are vocal about things we don’t agree with that rub against our faith-or political views. It’s easy to hide behind social media and our computers and do absolutely nothing about problems we complain about or ignore.

If you want to see change go be the change, go love people, serve the homeless, help a single mom, serve at a soup kitchen, serve a widow in your neighborhood, wrap around or become a foster/adoptive family, be CASA worker, do respite, become a “big brother or big sister” mentor etc.. But for heavens sake stop complaining and start doing something. Draw a circle around yourself and be the revival our world needs.

Who dis? Any breakfast lovers out there?
Window portraits with @davidonoccasion thankful to have this guy as new chum.
Wandering around with her never gets old. I’m sure that as we grow old together the adventure will never stop, the urge to create will never stop and discovering new places will never stop! We met a retired man inside this cafe and naturally conversation struck up with him about creativity. He also shared how he and his wife are still pursuing creative outlets even as retired people and love enjoying the local spots around the city! This conversation gave me so much hope that even when we are old we don’t have to stop doing the things we love about life. #neverstopexploring
Good things come in brown paper bags. Somehow when you’re in NYC sitting on the ground in a market eating authentic Asian beef and noodles — because every seat is taken... it  becomes magical. I want to do more of living life like this! Roaming through cities where I don’t know a soul eating the foods I love and being invisible. Cheers peeps!
For me it hasn’t always been easy to find the styles that I like as a larger dude. To be honest I’ve always carried a sense of shame around being bigger. One of my issues was that the larger the size the wider the shirt got and the shorter the sleeves. For pants they got wider and shorter too with no shape and very limited patterns and colors. But these brands below all have options that actually fit...and for that I’m thankful for! Today I can say I’m learning to love who I am right now as I work on goals to a healthier me. I think no matter what size you are it’s really about being confident in the skin and body that you have. Every time I get a compliment I’m always shocked that anyone would actually be talking to me. I’m thankful for the body positivity movement and that even media is using people of all shapes sizes and colors for roles. I’m thankful for accounts like @chubstr that encourage us larger men to be confident with style.

When did you start to forget how to fly?— Chance The Rapper @davidonoccasion Is one of the good ones.
If you’re ever in Cincy do yourself a favor and go to @moneychicken_. This city has so much good food! And that’s a good thing for this foodie.
Can I be real...sometimes you meet random people and you forget their IG handles. This was one of those moments where we had a brief moment to create some magic. So if anyone knows who this is please tag him for me. Until next time peeps. Yes got it @trecal!
Why pay thousands of dollars for a shrink when you can just hang out sip coffee, eat baked goods and people watch in a cafe. I promise you it’s therapeutic. @urbanacafe 👌🏾

Rainy day vibes...
Photographed muralist and graffiti artist @davidjonathancreative. He’s legit check his work out!
I’m convinced that it’s good people like Daniel @urbanacafe that hold our cities together. By using their entrepreneurial spirts to take risks and open small businesses. If you’re ever in Cincy check out @urbanacafe you won’t be disappointed, I promise.

This time of year everyone is feeling the pressure to be their next best self. I just wanted to say it’s ok if you aren’t sure what this next year will bring. Can anyone relate? ✋🏾 So many times we are trying to plan our lives detail for detail and not leaving much space fo God to be God and trust Him. .
Honestly I don’t have a plan this year I don’t know what it holds for me and my family and I’m completely ok with that. We’re living in a new city where we hardly know anyone and I’m ok with that. I have mad skills as a photographer and own a photography business and I’m not really sure where that is going or where to even start in redeveloping that but I’m ok with that. We’re living in a temporary space that some would say is to small for our family but I’m ok with that. We’re learning to live on mission in community with people we hardly know and I’m ok with that. Sometimes being a father and a husband feels extremely hard and I’ve felt like a failure at times but I’m ok with that. We have some dreams on the table that we are going to risk failing at and move forward with but I’m ok with that. .

I could go on and on. .
But I’m learning to lean not on my own understanding and trust that God is good and has good intentions for you and me. If you are feeling like this year is going to be a drag and insignificant I want to encourage to put your faith in Abba and hold on to His promises.

What dreams are you hoping become a reality in 2019?
Roaming the Cincy streets with my good friend @keithacollett dreaming and scheming. There are good things in the works for this dude can’t wait to see them unfold!
