Yuh ever had a big fat grin, over-brimming with confidence, strutting as if yuh own the world, but inside... {not very deep inside, quite near the surface if yuh scratch actually}... yuh wondering what de asssssss just happened & how yuh pull off what yuh do? Well... right now, thats me. Queens Hall was offered to us exactly 17 days ago... I hesitated. Cmon... who de ass going to throw a show right after school re-opens and expect to sell? With exactly 15 DAYS to sell it? I nearly gave up. The confidence others have in me, ALWAYS astounds me. Like dem aint know bout pure fackin luck? But the thing is, theres no such thing as luck. Luck occurs when your arse has planted the necessary HARD WUK, with sweat. Better Luck arrives when your sweat is mixed with blood. The Greatest Luck of all swoops in when your sweat, blood & tears nourish the roots of your Hard Wuk Tree. All for nought if Gratitude for Gods mercy isnt first on your agenda. Last night I looked at our pictures... mih chest likkle tight. I work mih ass off, but without the presence of my Ancestors, best I stay in my bed. Without a solid foundation nooooooo house can stand. The foundation of Priceless is my Grandmother. Cant get any more solid than that. and so, Divine Order was established. To God be ALL glory. To the Grandmothers, I humbly walk in faith and love, knowing that your journey created my path. To the Ancestors, Guardians, Orishas, Deities, Warriors, Teachers and Lovers that surround us always, I give thanks. To the Priceless Family... hear nuh... allyuh just beautiful.
