This thread... I implore you to read it and be familiar with it. Understand it and digest it. Advice for all of my melanin rich brothers and sisters ♥️
this is a tip for all black kids:
don’t let your friends make that joke. you know exactly what i’m talking about. you’re not being sensitive, and it’s not harmless. they need to respect you.
My therapist asked me what I would do with my time if no one needed anything from me for a full week.
I said I had no idea.
She asked if that felt like freedom or like panic.
Panic, I said, immediately.
She said, when empty time feels like a threat, it means your identity is entirely built on being needed. And that is a fragile thing to build a life on.
I drove home and looked at my diary and noticed how little of it was actually mine.
Manifestation is real, which means the universe isn't testing your wishes.
It's testing your choices.
Every decision is getting you closer to an identity, every action builds evidence of who you are choosing to be.
Choose discipline over comfort.
Faith over fear.
Creation over chaos.
Your life becomes a reflection of the person you repeatedly prove yourself to be.
