My Personal Statement: Blog's Purpose

When my son, Corey, came to me approximately two years ago & declared that he wanted to become a rapper, I panicked. I thought to myself, "Son! This is NOT what I had in mind for you!" And despite my plea, he remained committed to pursuing his dreams. I eventually realized that it's not for me to decide my children's path, as self-determination is an individual assignment. So, unwilling to risk the possibility of becoming alienated from my son, I finally got with the program...I got onboard.

Today, I proudly announce to the world that I, Jessica, support my son; I believe in my son; and of course, I love my son! If you take an interest in your son/daughter's love for the arts, and his/her dreams of becoming a professional artist or entertainer someday, then join me in salute to all who have the courage to chase their dreams. Never. Give. Up.

Here's to you, Corey.
