TELL EVERYBODY TO RESPECT THE KINGDOM/ KIDS WITH LOVE 'TERKLOVING' WITH LOVE 'TERKLOVING'

Customers often go like "huh!", what is this? if you are wondering what inspired this word "TERK" and our upheld virtue RESPECT, well here it goes. From the lyrics of a rapper I heard him say, "If one gets 10 dollars today he would be needing 20 dollars tomorrow".

True as it seems, it's exactly what happened a point in time in my life .The only difference was that my situation wasn't about money but something you will discover yourself after reading everything below. I thought migrating to the USA meant I would have escaped from most of my worries. To me this meant I couldn't ask for anything more and all that was left for me to do was to study and work hard in other to achieve my life goals. Metaphorically relating it to the words of the rapper I would have gotten my 10 dollars then, which I was "ok with". What I didn't know then was that I will need 20 dollars later, on which metaphorically speaking came in another form. This then came to confirm the rappers theory or if I may say fact about life.
Me needing 20 dollars became a necessity in high school. It all started in high school New Jersey (USA); people made fun of foreigners without knowing their history and culture. For instance, I was mocked at any given opportunity I spoke, all because I had a different accent and culture. My assumption was these people did not realize and respect the fact that I was

an immigrant and I was trying to adapt to their culture, which I truly respected, and that I would expect to be respected as well. Instead, it was the other way around, despite that one thing I believed they didn't know was that respect keeps us all from hurting one another. Due to their ignorance about respect they kept mocking me to a point that I sometimes had to fight my way out of certain situations, which I later realized, wasn't the best of ways to handle things.

Remembering what my Grandmother once said some years back, 'the language that people with manners speak is RESPECT and she explained that respect is a very important virtue we all must learn and that we shouldn't give respect to anyone because it was earned or commanded but rather give and respect all because you have good manners and you will always make yourself and others happy regardless of who they are and where they are from'. An initiative was taken in our school to help resolve things by shining light on our various cultures through education and also putting up different country flags, dancing and sharing music and also wearing our traditional clothes to represent our culture.

This made individuals guilty of their ignorant acts when they realized what they are missing from the other parts of the world and that which is making them disrespect other foreigners. So in a nutshell the whole idea of "Tell Everybody to Respect the Kingdoms" is to let the people who always have negative mindsets and attitudes towards foreigners because of what they have heard or been told, to know that there is a whole lot of positive things they can get to know about such foreigners. And they can start by respecting foreigners and their "kingdoms" instead of disrespecting them. So I believe we all can spread the word RESPECT From my experience what I have come to realize are the most important things in life are; Respect, Education, Patience, Love, Sharing, Forgiveness, Smiling, Pray, Hard work and Determination are the key elements to greatness.

TERKLOVING Tell Everybody to Respect the Kingdoms /Kids with "LOVE" (TERKLOVING) was formed out of the initials of the names of a group of siblings who always wanted to create a business of their own and run it together as family. The attempt to establish something together generated the clothing line TERKLOVING. Each sibling contribute their part in terms of management, designing, financing, promoting and others. TERKLOVING as a clothing brand represents all genders and age groups. In view of this fact we made each letter in our brand name TERKLOVING represents various age groups and unisex. This we think will make our clients and customers find a type of collection they can relate with and also which suits their fashion sense. Therefore, whenever a client sees that emphasis has been made on a particular alphabet in our name brand TERKLOVING, he or she will get an idea of which age group or gender the particular line was geared towards. This makes each line represent a specific age group or gender and thereby making our various lines age appropriate.

This makes each line represent a specific age group or gender and thereby making our various lines age appropriate.

TERK (T-line) THOMAS: The letter T represents the initial of the oldest sibling's name. in view of the fact that the Twear/line trend caters for the fashion needs of mature men who want to maintain the certain look of comfortability yetclassy. This could be a casual look or a corporate/ executive look. So whatever is designed under this line is made age appropriate.

TERK (E-line) EMMANUEL: The letter E represents the initial of the youngest male sibling. The E wear/ line tends to cater for the fashion needs of male teenagers who want to experience almost everything fashion wise. Any clothing article under this line is also made appropriate.

TERK (R-line) RUTH: Once more the letter R represents the initial of the only female among the sibling. The R wear/ line relating to her gender will have a feminine touch to the designs and cater to all ages of women. Various designs and styles are made to meet the various fashion taste of prospecting clients.

TERK (K-line) KWASI: With the aim of leaving every stone unturned in the fashion world, the K line which represents the initial of the second to last male sibling tends to be the line between the two worlds. Thus teenagers and mature male adults can both wear this particular line. It is the line for the best of worlds, the transition from the teenage world to the adult's world. So their fashion taste seems to be either unbalanced or a balance/blend of two different age groups
