This next book was written by a
very influential man. One whom, with his writing has given access to his mind. This book sets an array of world into motion with this
debut of publication. This book is about
CONNECTION. From a man whom stands out and
makes himself
STAND OUT, this book is a collection of essays detailing
just that....connection. From the man whom is an advocate and
STANDS UP for his beliefs, this book takes you on a journey on how
all of it is you. Here are the writings inside the mind of Nico Tortorella.
To start, this book is the REALEST thing that Nico has ever created. It represents more of him than anything he has ever put into fruition. Nico knows where he stands in the lots of ICONS that came before him. Nico knows his place. His greatest insecurity has always been his own intelligence. Nico ponders it himself of what of him makes him matter? You can shed and expose yourself. But, let people know your inner workings; people KNOW you. Nico writes the same as he does in life; raw, loving, engaging, curious. Nico begins to understand his own privilege based on gender, what he looks like, where he came from, socioeconomic status, and the color of his skin. Nico sees his privilege as a universal voice of understanding for a generation, a positive outlet for a movement, and a source of light in even the darkest of times.
This book is split into 3 sections; body, earth, universe. This book will take you on a journey through human life and connection to the world around us. This book becomes a transformational journey. It is HONORABLE to be a work in progress. Not everything resonates, but it is PERSONAL and THAT IS REAL! All Of It Is You. Therein lies the cover of this book. It says it ALL!
Your name says
ALOT about you. Labled into legacy. Nico Luigi Tortorella. Nico came from his mother's maiden name, Niconiconico. Italian for fish and his father's Tortorella turtle dove. His name lands from fishes and birds. A real man is a woman who wears part of himself on the outside for the world to see. When you see your family, you
SEE the connection. A piece of them is in you and outwardly vice-versa. We are all connected in the great circle of life.
The heart is so easy to break yet so hard to harden. You could be fined and toned and still feel not good enough. With a broken wing in your stomach it still sings and it needs to fly. The voice inside your head is always the LOUDEST to hear. Listen. If you want to know someone's life...just look at their hands.
The only difference between an ass and a Stallion is the way you hold yourself. Sometimes I'm a hardass or a smartass, either way I'm an asshole. So, screw you!
At the end of the day, Nico would rather
feel everything than
nothing at all. Sweat is your body's cry. Sweating the outside means ALOT on the inside. Sleep, in of itself, whilst does recharge the body. . .it also takes in the day to prepare for the next. Your identity is part of expressing yourself. Express your identity and paint with your own colors. When you hate, the only person who suffers is you...most of the people you hate don't know it. Others don't care. - Medgar Evers.
It's one thing to try and experiment with drugs; if you don't like it the first time, why do it again? You tried it...tasted it...hated it...why do it again when you know better?
Nico said it best...water like people are great when they sparkle...but don't be thirsty. Love is a UNIVERSAL language. Why waste sacred life simply surviving? Make something of it.
Like ashes from the fire....I Rise. - Maya Angelou. When you feel an energetic connection...you feel
INFINITE!
Let there be light and take in the day. Time is of the essence. What you do with it matters. Take in the spring air, take a deep breath. Out with the old...in with the new.
