Hoods to Woods trailer #2 from Brian Paupaw on Vimeo.

My homie Deka has a new film coming about
being a snow boarder from Bed Stuy, titled from Hoods
to Woods
. My favorite part of
the trailer was the young buck
backflips off the fence and Dekka
says, “If I put them sho’ties
on some snow boards, they ‘prolly tear it up.”
Tear it up and leave it new at the same time.

Last night, I was reading a book about creating Boundaries
in relationships
and was blown away by two statements. The first was,
“People with shaky
limits are often compliant on the outside,
but rebellious and resentful
on the inside.” Amen. The other is
that, “As you develop better boundaries,
you have less of a need
for anger. This is because in many cases, anger
was the only
boundary you had.” Church.

    “People with shaky limits are often compliant on the outside, but rebellious and resentful on the inside.”
    I’ve experienced that with former friends. They act like “yes” people but secretly have a long list of grudges against you.

I need to get my stories into a workshop. maybe ppl won't understand my Nas connection in my novel? maybe it's too specific? i'm marinating on how to work less & make more. teaching is tiring. there has to be a better way to educate. public schools suck. we need a shrink/REAL counseling for these kids. math & Shakespeare ain't enough.

    I hear you.

    Your audience will understand Nas in your novel, and that is all that matters.
