Haylo and Welcome!
I want to be the first to welcome you to The Akire Group blog. I am extremely excited about this journey and I am excited you are taking time to check us out.
“As a creative artist each one is made in the image of God therefore DO NOT COPY, COPYING PUTS GOD TO SLEEP”-Elimo Njau
I love this quote!!! This quote is one of the inspirations behind The Akire Group. Last summer I went to Nairobi, Kenya on a mission to to rebuild the Paa Ya Paa Art Center. Before entering the art center I saw this quote and instantly took a picture of it.
This quote isn’t limited to just “artist” it is for everyone. It is the charge we are ALL given, to live as an original and just BE! I was going to type “strive” but I was reminded that we don’t have to “strive” all we have to do is BE. Let’s just BE who we were created to BE!
This blog will express the thoughts of The Akire Group team and myself. Ok, let me first warn you, we are bunch of random, imaginative, reflective and creative souls.
I hope you enjoy the blog!
Peace,
Erika
