You are your own worst enemy. You waste precious time dreaming of the future instead of engaging in the present. Since nothing seems urgent to you, you are only half involved in what you do. The only way to change is through action and outside pressure.
Food is expensive but you are still eating, gas keeps on rising but you have fuel in your tank, housing is getting unaffordable but you have a roof over your head, unemployment is high but you bring home a paycheck.
You aren't sustaining yourself, God is. Give thanks.
I grew up thinking racism was 100% over cuz everybody around me was black, poor and rich. Teachers mayors police fireman everybody. Then grew up and realized it was just a DC thing fr. Truly Chocolate City
