Ight so boom… One thing about me? I’m gonna communicate what I’m feeling. I know how to articulate what I’m thinking & do! I’m also a visual learner. So if you’re anything like me, a picture is definitely worth more than a thousand words. So here’s what I did…
I know folks don’t like reading nowadays (not me though… buy me a nice hardcover) so they can only assume they understand what I mean when I talk about the Pimp Society (because it’s not some city girl thing OR hyper masculine thing….). This brand is centered around ME. Yes, sounds conceited but hear me out… I’m told by majority of people I meet that the vibe I bring is unmatched. I hate saying this because I truly don’t feel I’m better than anyone, but I’m aware I provide a safe space & comfort zone free of judgement… with a healthy level of positive chaos. THIS keeps me going. I’m always going to be who I’m going to be regardless of who agrees with it. I’ve been told my entire life I am loud, conceited, that I fill a room. Every blue moon someone shares with me how much MY large personality helped THEM feel bigger. Then there goes the “nah I’m tryna get like you” exchange & I realize lil ole me DOES have people looking to me as motivation/inspiration. So yes be just like me by being YOU…. on 10000.
Now when I say Pimp… I’m speaking the vibe, the mentality, the CONFIDENCE! Show me any Pimp in black cinema that wasn’t oozing confidence? You couldn’t tell them a thing to make them feel inferior. I stand on that. I firmly believe as long as I know WHY I am moving how I am and with positive intentions, I regret NOTHING. If you cannot articulate how I am wrong… then I am seeing what I started out to the end. I said what I said, you heard me. I did what I did & I’d do it again. You might not agree, but you only got 2 choices: Respect it or kick rocks. The grind don’t stop.
Now let’s be very clear. While I will always do what’s best for me & my mental health, I am NOT saying this is a basis to treat people any ole kind of way. I’ve got my ideals, you can have yours. Stand on them. We don’t have to agree., but respect is a 2 way street. I will always come in a mindset of love of self & my space, including the individuals in it. Everything is light hearted & bubbly. Try to bust my bubble? AHT AHT! Kick rocks buster! I’m living my main character life right now & my movie is a fun one, not a struggle story! Please exit left!
Let’s unpack that… “What do you mean main character… red flag!” Yea no try again. Main character meanig the world revolves around me? No. But… yes. I live in my skin. I am existing in this body, experiencing what I am 24/7. Yes this is my world & you all are just living in it. But… there are millions of worlds… even a frog has his own beautifully amazing worlds… have you seen National Geographic? It’s awesome. So yes YOU are the main character of your own world. Not everyone’s going to like that you have a spotlight… but it’s not your job to dim yours because they can’t see theirs. Sure, life comes with a lot of issues but stepping out of my body for a second and asking myself “Is the world ending or is this a character development moment right now?” helps me through a lot. I remind myself who I am & prepare for my level up. When I sit back & look at my life, I want to be happy that I didn’t leave space for “I wish I had”. I will love myself completely because this is my one chance to. I will do whatever my intuition tells me I need to do. I almost wasn’t here anymore, so I promise you this. I am living a life where I regret nothing. I am happy with my choices. I am proud with how I treat myself, my space, my people, my community. I want that for everyone around me. I say all that to say this…
Being a real Pimp in my world is this:
Figure out what you believe in & stand on it. Regret nothing, but be self aware. Do what’s best for you, but respect everyone. Be accountable. Handle your business. Stay ambitious. Radiate confidence while you do it! I am living my soft girl era but baby… I’m a Pimp. When I say that it sounds masculine but who said I relinquish my feminity? It’s called Duality. I created a visual representation of my world.
