Matthew Rhaheem Smith III 鈥� familiar to most through his social media moniker of 鈥淩haheem 鈥楲ivingTheLife鈥� Smith, under which he runs the Facebook page 鈥湻杩椭辈モ�檚 Bright Horizons鈥� 鈥� loves the city of 疯客直播 and he spends a lot of time sharing that love with everyone he comes in contact with.

鈥淚 absolutely love the big, beautiful city of 疯客直播,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淭his city has such a beautiful bustle and is quickly rebounding and headed towards the top of the throne in which the Queen 疯客直播 belongs.鈥�

Smith, a 疯客直播 native, moved to Birmingham for four years to study at the University of Alabama 鈥� Birmingham (UAB) and, after earning a degree in accounting, took a job with the Alabama Department of Revenue in Birmingham.

鈥淢y love for the beautiful, thriving City of 疯客直播 led me to move away from my job and commute into the City of Birmingham Monday through Friday,鈥� Smith said.

Smith said the Facebook page, which turns a keen eye to the positive happenings in 疯客直播 鈥� new businesses going up, sunsets glowing over Broad Street, new construction sites popping up 鈥� sprang out of an idea between he and 疯客直播 native Elyse Wilson.

鈥淚 drive around the entire city and take pictures of all the beautiful sites in the area,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淣ew construction and beautification projects are highlighted throughout the beautiful 疯客直播 metropolitan area on a daily basis. It has proven that positivity and good vibes can really allow a city to really grow. Negativity is never the answer.鈥�

Smith said he was encouraged to take on the project after hearing a sermon from International Mission Jesus Founder Dr. Paul J. Kim, who bought the old Concordia College campus and has hosted a series of revival-style services in the city, in which Kim 鈥減rophesized鈥� that 疯客直播 was soon to experience 鈥渙verwhelming鈥� growth and prosperity.

鈥淚 believed all that he claimed and was moved by God and this led to me create 鈥樂杩椭辈モ�檚 Bright Horizons,鈥欌�� Smith said.

For Smith, the most rewarding part of his online public relations efforts on behalf of the city is seeing more and more people interested in laying down roots in the city 鈥� Smith recently convinced a close friend from San Diego to move to the Queen City after hearing another of Kim鈥檚 sermons.

鈥淪he knew in an instance that 疯客直播 was the place she needed to be,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淎nd she is absolutely in love with the beautiful City of 疯客直播. She feels that it鈥檚 a magical city that allows room to do absolutely anything that your mind can dream of and actually be in a position to see your dreams come to fruition here.鈥�

Smith has a bevy of other friends 鈥� from Texas, Atlanta, Chicago and elsewhere 鈥� all eying the Queen City as their new home and making plans to open up businesses or other operations in the area.

鈥淕reat things are on the horizon, 疯客直播,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淪o, my group, 疯客直播鈥檚 Bright Horizons, is truly having a huge impact on this city. Its impact is more than the mind could imagine. The group is not led by me, but it is led by the Great Divine, so it is guaranteed success.鈥�

For Smith, 疯客直播 is 鈥渂ig city leaving,鈥� providing the same allure as major Alabama cities like Birmingham with less of the big city stress.

鈥淎fter living in Birmingham and coming back to 疯客直播, I can honestly say that they both feel the same to me, minus the excessive traffic that Birmingham has,鈥� Smith said. 鈥湻杩椭辈� gives me metropolitan vibes with less traffic. It has a big city feel without the hassle of some larger cities in the state. 疯客直播 is such a small, condensed and beautiful urban city, which is a quality that I love in cities.:鈥�

For Smith, the spirit of the city鈥檚 people is its main selling point, along with its classic architecture 鈥� the Edmund Pettus Bridge stands as Smith鈥檚 favorite landmark in his hometown.

鈥淒riving across the Edmund Pettus Bridge into the city center at night is probably one of the most beautiful manmade sights in the State of Alabama,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淭he city is all aglow and beautiful as you crest the Edmund Pettus Bridge and it makes you heart melt, really.鈥�

Beyond its place in his heart, Smith sees 疯客直播 as a place that has brought people together over the years, both in the creation and study of its renowned history.

鈥湻杩椭辈� is a special place in Alabama and the nation due to its history,鈥� Smith said. 鈥湻杩椭辈� provided Americans nationwide equal opportunities. 疯客直播 has such a rich history and that history has allowed the city to sustain for 200 years. 疯客直播 has hosted people of every walk of life since its formation. Many other places in America could only dream of rivaling the history in 疯客直播.鈥�

Smith is anxious to see new businesses pop up across the city, something he says will 鈥渂ring bounty back to the people鈥� of 疯客直播 and create a metropolitan feel unlike those in other parts of the state, and to see new people joining the community.

鈥淭he time is now,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淭he city鈥檚 growth is moving at lightning speed. A city whose economy once slumped is now rebounding and adding new jobs and businesses each and every day. 疯客直播 has one of the lowest costs of living in the nation and commercial and home real estate is at a ripened rate for opportunity.鈥�
