This is my championship year.
I knew this day would come. You can only 'be' for so long, there is a point where you end up making a decision that vibrates well into the future.
It's been about a month now. I gave up my digs and packed a bag, I set out on my great hobo journey across America. One month ago now, I made a decision to fully pursue my dream. After about ten years of talking, and thinking; of shit jobs and failed endeavors, hard work, and minor success- I thought I had both reached the top of my profession and the the very bottom of my career.
I took a hard look.
I thought, this may very well kill me. For me, it's always been the pursuit of excellence that has driven my ambitions- I care about authenticity, and aesthetics, about a good life, about good people, and about quality.
I'm taking this time to be an artist, to expand upon the expectations that have been set for me. I am interested in contributing rather than serving in the arts. In the months to come I am curating a blog to showcase my projects, it will be called The Little Champion. The Little Champion will feature my travels, progress, aesthetics, and a curated guide to good things in general.
I need your help to support my basic needs as I begin and continue work on writing a play and starting a card business that's been a long time coming. I have been humbled by the hospitality and love my friends have shown me as I take this sharp turn into greater things. I am proud to be on the brink of something wonderful out here.
Excited to share this, I hope you will consider supporting me in any amount. My goal is to reach $4000 over the next few weeks. In return for a $40 donation, I will send you a HOBO t-shirt in June, the first in a series of my own design. For every donation of $20 or more, you may request a handpicked postcard with a personal message from yours truly.
As Emerson said: 'Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude'.
I am most grateful for your support, in whatever form that may be.
