I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

To have a street mentality is fine, as long as it's about hustling, working hard, living by principles, never forgetting where you come from, giving to your family, creating opportunities for your friends, speaking truth to power, never selling out, dreaming big, and rising up out of difficult circumstances. WORD-East African Masai tribesmen do not greet each other with "How are you?" They say, "So how are the children?" Because if the children of the village are well and safe....then peace prevails in the community.
