There's Hope

I started today off by listening to some India Arie. I love her but I have to be in the mood for her latest album. It is a mixture of positive preaching and her journey towards healing. I listened to her song, There's Hope as I cleaned up and prepared to care for my neighbor's son who injured his foot playing football yesterday. The song hits home every time I hear it. India is such a role model and an example of how "large" my generation truly is. We are breaking the mold and saying no to the way things have been in the past and paving a new way for the generations that follow. Honestly, this is the reason why I am so determined to open Harmony Cupcakes. I want my children and nieces to know that they do not have to work for corporate America because there will be a viable family business for them to come and contribute to. I will also encourage them to venture out and pursue their dreams, no matter how impossible they seem. I am inspired and driven by the creative freedom and balance that Harmony Cupcakes will provide me with. It will be hard work but the end result will be so sweet, perhaps as sweet as one of my cupcakes.

Peace.
