tumblr 52 weeks thing, week 10 - Power

power up | large

You can let the past have power over you. You can let people from your past still hold the power they used to have over you even though they are long gone from your life.

You have the power to let it all go. You have the power to move on, to be who you wanted to be before you became someone who let everything hold them down. You have the power to live through it all. You have the power to push forward instead of looking back.

You have the power to be, to exist outside of the things that kept you from feeling like you were not existing at all. You have the power to take positive things from your experiences instead of leaning on those experiences as crutches that keep you from walking.

The power any person or memory has over you is only as strong as you let it be. Giving it thought, giving it a physical places in your emotional life, letting it take up space in your heart or your brain or your soul is to give it even more power.

You can let words have power over you. You can let those who think less of you than they ought to have the power to make you feel small and meaningless, or you can recognize that their words only make you feel that way because you let them. Power down. Turn them off.

You have the power to move, to run, to climb and push through. You have the power to keep the demons at bay, to make them shrink back from you when they realize you will not let them hurt you anymore.

You can be. You can do. You can win. It’s all a matter of giving power to the right things and cutting off the power to anything that’s been taking up negative space in your head.

Power up.

Two LA gangs, Burlington and 18th Street flank The Pico Union Housing Corporation in South Central. The property, though, is considered neutral ground because about three years ago, an employee got permission from the corporation to give the back wall of their parking lot to the local graffiti boys. On Saturdays and Sundays, he’d open the gates to them so they could paint somewhere safe. This still happens every weekend, the different crews are asked to donate a couple bucks and then they can paint until it gets dark. Now this mundane two story office building is ensconced in wild ass, neon street art and is better known to the neighborhood as the Graff Lab.

The kid who did the piece in this picture is 24 and actually went to school 3 mins from where I did even though he grew up in South Central (where he still lives). He was bused in and gave me a lot of shit for our 2002 basketball loss to Taft High school.

Aaaaaaaaand know we know why he tends to stick to his standard black turtleneck and jeans when he’s in public.

The mohawk is terrible look for him. Also, who’s that old bald dude next to him?

The Free Wheelchair Mission:

Free Wheelchair Mission is an international non-profit organization dedicated to providing wheelchairs for the impoverished disabled in developing nations.

I met Stefan Bucher at Design Indaba last week. He was there speaking about his Daily Monsters. He introduced me to this organization and we think it’s ingenious. We’re big fans of using off the shelf parts to solve the simple problems first. Health doesn’t need to be as complex as it is. It’s mostly about unique thinking for simple solutions that solve 90% of problems for 90% of people.

Donate a wheelchair here.
