COVID should’ve taught y’all that people only care about themselves. It only matters when it happens to them & the sense of community this country once had is long, long gone
Ciara gets cheated on by Future, she’s blamed. Along comes Russell Wilson, a man who loves and respects her now he’s a “simp” and she’s “undeserving.” Cardi B gets cheated on for years by Offset, it’s jokes. She moves on, now she’s the problem. Megan Thee Stallion gets hurt repeatedly, she’s mocked. The men are celebrated. Now that Klay has hurt her, men somehow love him after he was just every goofy in the book when he “appeared” to be loving her properly. The list seriously goes on. A man cheats, people excuse it. A woman stays, she’s weak. A woman leaves, she’s the problem. A woman finds better, now she’s “undeserving” and the Man treating her right is a clown, goofy, simp. When Men speak up for women they’re labeled “pick me’s” or worse
This says to me that a lot of men are comfortable when a woman is disrespected but bothered when she’s valued. Why Tho? Who hurt y’all?
My favorite plot twist is when people realize I’m exactly who I say I am, that I had pure intentions the whole time & they were projecting their own twisted mindsets onto me !
No one talks enough about how exhausting it is to continuously be the one who “gives grace”. In a lot of instances, you’re giving grace at the expense of putting someone else’s needs before your own.
List of places I won't be going this year:
• The extra mile
• Above & Beyond
• Back & forth
• Out of my way
• All out for people
• Where I’m not invited
So help me God.
I wanna marry into a funcional family... when they have cookouts, game nights, holiday dinners and bday parties...I wanna be able to go get breakfast with my mother in law & go shopping with their siblings. I don't want it to be just "US" I want a family that's oriented.
I'm so happy I was raised the way I was, I didn't appreciate it back then, but babyyyyyyy, the way some of y'all talk, think, speak, get over, scheme, lie back door & back stab... Thankful for the integrity, morals and dignity I was taught !!
if you wanna be happy you literally cannot cannot cannot cannottttttt care what people think... like you have to practice that daily... and stay grounded in that. long as you not hurting or hindering nobody, do what you want and be unapologetic about it... daily.
