Hip hop update
Hi good people,
I recorded a rap verse I wrote this morning in response to a challenge I gave on Facebook yesterday. I might just even leave an original blues song if we reach $7,000 in the next couple of days.
"How is that possible," you may ask? Good question. By you guys reminding your friends to take 3 minutes to watch the video and donate $1 if they support it. I have found that most folks need more than one or two reminders before they take action. I have even made it easy for you. Feel free to copy and paste the words below:
As a friend, I'm asking you to take 3 MINUTES to watch the video below. If you support it, DONATE ONE DOLLAR and PASS IT ON. Promote peace. It takes a village to make a movie: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1203307090/kenya-until-hope-is-found
I'd also like to share a story that KSMU 91.1 did about "Kenya: Until Hope is Found." Much respect to Missy Shelton Belote: http://ksmu.org/article/local-filmmaker-raises-money-documentary-project-kenya
We are making good progress thanks to all of you. I appreciate you greatly.
God bless you all, Patrick

Wow Patrick!
You should see the sheepish smile plastered on my face :)
Didn't know all that. However, I have always known you have a BIG golden heart which I am glad the world will know through your blessings.
Keep beaming loved one, keep beaming your Godly rays of hope. The link to Until hope is found has been shared with as many folks as I could remember and I have also posted it on my Fb wall. I am manifesting great success for you and all those in need of Hope and a reason to smile. God bless.

Thank YOU Jacque for being the inspiration you are. If I haven't already told you, YOU're the one who inspired me to start songwriting and rapping when I was 9 or 10. Remember these lines?
"You know I like your complexion, look in my direction, make up ur mind and let me be your selection."
