Had an appointment with my doctor this morning to go over results of a biopsy and other tests related to cancer. Everything came back clear! Feeling blessed and grateful 🙏
Went on dates with guys who made >$700k and had wiki pages and the first thing they would complain about when they got comfortable on the date was that they didn’t like “dumb” girls they couldn’t talk to.
I found it strange that this man prioritized the ability to converse more than I thought because when we’d walk around in public, people would recognize him. It wasn’t just about looks.
I had one guy friend that would go on to make >$200k right out of college. And even when we were poor college kids, mid way thru a date with a cute girl, he made up an excuse that he had a work emergency come up at his part time job, paid the bill, and left.
He told me it was actually because he got super bored.
Had another man worth >$1M, self made, by his early 30s. He kept complimenting me on my side hustles and career. Said I understood because we were in the same fields.
There is a certain type of man that does care about looks but equally cares about the ability to converse if not more.
If you hate KAT, I suggest you reconsider...
"I feel like other than losing a child there's nothing worse you could go through and it builds you up and it strengthens you beyond measure. That's why I got Philippians 4:13 and the date tattooed on my neck. I could do all things through Christ who strengthens me but I was strengthened on April 13 when I lost my mother. That's been my favorite Bible verse my whole entire life since I was little. I didn't know the significance it would have in my life when I became an adult. But what I do know is that I truly can do anything when I walk in faith, when I walk with the angels beside me. I feel anything's possible, I feel nothing's impossible...
I'm just grateful to be in this position because I know a lot of friends in mind that are not here to see this moment. I know a lot of people I love tremendously that aren't here to give me that hug or to give me that text message. I'm doing this for them. I do this for them, I do it for my mother's country, I do it for everybody in Dominican Republic, I do it for everyone in the city that welcomed my mother when she immigrated over. I do it for all my family in New Jersey that allowed me to be raised and allowed me to love this game of basketball and allowed me to be a kid with my mother and enjoy those times. It takes a tribe to get here and it takes a village and I'm so blessed that I've had the village I've had in my life to get to this point"
The whole 82-0 phenomenon reinforces that whole bit about how the only thing a bunch of dudes need in order to have a good time is to sit around announcing the names of a bunch of old athletes.
