So its LA, not London, I see out of my bedroom window now when I wake up in the morning.

It's so strange, to know that you have this new life, new direction and new culture to adapt to.

I've left so much behind, severed some of the only ties I knew in order to do this, with a promise of so much to come - it's inspiring and overwealming all in the same hit. It's Mochacity now. I've dedicated myself to something I hold so much love for. I've watched her grow for over 2 and a half years, I've supported the foundation, those that built, sweated, bled for this creation to be where it is, and in return they've supported me.

There have been thousands of hours, late nights, pep talks and learning curves in order to understand the people, ethos and mechanism behind the browns, blacks and creams that the members view daily. Its been a long road. And my role continues but manifests itself in different ways every single day.

Do I regret my decision to move? no, its hard here, life is different but deep inside the answer is no. Do I have faith it will all work out? yes because of the faith that my support system wont fail me. Is the sacrifice worth it? the ambition, opportunities, the family I have here are worth it, this creation is worth it.

I know I can't flow with the delusional, too level headed to do that, until you've moved away from the only place you know and could always fall back on, you want to have a waiverless knowledge that its all good and all right, the reality is you never really know. It's the biggest risk you ever take, because its your ENTIRE life, not just a single portion, you rely so hard on your instincts knowing it can cause you pain beyond reasoning but also reward you beyond belief. But knowing that life is risks and risks are what make you, I refuse to play safety and this is the culmination.

These are the realities in my mind this weekend, in lieu of relaxing in Hyde Park or strolling through the Maritime Museum in Greenwich, being surrounded by the security of my parents during Sunday lunch or going to my girls house to act a fool on a Friday night. I substitute that for strolling down Hollywood Boulevard, hitting a venue on Sunset, or feeling the sand underneath my bare feet on Venice Beach. This is home now. This is my Familia now. My people. Holding strong to the blessing and the motto of ''We all we Got''. And I will continue to pull on the courage, stamina and ethic required to do what I can to help grow something which has been my life since 2004. After all this time, its really all I know.
