- BY MONIQUE HOWARD - Whether it’s the simple act of holding the door for a senior citizen or helping a stranger who’s down and out, daily compassion transcends the holiday joviality that inspires giving. It’s one of the most beautiful aspects of human nature. Smile more and lend a helping hand whenever you can. These actions can inspire what all people seek in life– happiness. Volunteering at homeless shelters, participating in food and toy drives are some of the best ways to usher in the holiday spirit by providing hope and letting those in need know that they are not alone or forgotten. As the family gathers around the dinner table to enjoy a holiday meal, they will have the satisfaction of knowing someone else is doing the same because they helped make it happen. A holiday tradition will become an everyday practice that will last a lifetime. In life, the season of giving never ends, and one of the greatest traditions to pass on to the next generation is the joy of helping others. 36 / THE THE QUINTESSENTIAL GENTLEMAN WWW.THEQGENTLEMAN.COM
BY: AARON CAMPBELL While scrolling through Instagram, a page appears featuring a vibrant Black girl, posing in typical kid settings (the park, the beach, her neighborhood) wearing eye-catching clothing. One outfit features a matching dress and turban made from a bold print covered in colorful fish. Another features a hot pink feathered jacket with the words “Daddy’s Girl” sewn on the back. The page is full of striking children’s fashion in bold patterns, prints and colors, all modeled with style by this same little girl. FAMILY <strong>2019</strong> / 37
