I sat through a class today where the teacher said,
Discrimination happens. I’m not gonna sit and pretend it doesn’t. But also sometimes you have to decide personally when to speak up and when to ignore it because your here to do your job and you can sit and take the nonsense .
I disagree.
If there’s nonsense then it needs to be stopped.
If there’s discrimination of any kind to any degree, it needs to be acknowledged, addressed, and put to rest.
If you have to walk away from 100 jobs because they’d rather have someone who will sit and take it instead of your courageous and worthy work, then you have to walk away.
In walking away you turn tides.
No walking away you leave your imprint.
Who cares if you can take a punch and keep walking
You don’t have to.
You don’t have to let the next person take it.
If you walk away do it with an impact.
Make it known why you walked away.
Let other people know why you walked away.
If they didn’t correct themselves and try it again, that’s up to the next ones to work out.
But love yourself
God will provide
His will is for you to have the best.
You don’t need to push through if you don’t have to.
You’re a human
And if someone can’t see that, or won’t act like it
They don’t deserve you, your time, your energy, or your work.
Point blank period.
I was not having the best day
So I called my mom on Facebook messenger
Because I knew I wanted to see her
And she talked me up with filters
🖤🤟🏾🖤
Space Room
Canyons, stairs, and so much green. So far the best path I’ve ever seen.

I belive that art is life
Whatever you do in life you put into your art
Whatever life throws at you,
You use it to influence your art.
My life is art
I want to change the world
through my art
When the resources are right in front of me
When the opportunity has presented itself to give me the best way and means possible to do just that
I snatch it.
I have asked
I have sought
And I have knocked on any door I think has something for me behind it.
I can’t talk about wanting opportunities and then when they arise not taking advantage of them
You cannot see the door pop up and then sit and talk about what a beautiful door it is.
You cannot talk about all the things this door could do
You have to knock on it
And get whats on the other side
You have to knock
You have to knock
You have to knock
Knock knock knock knock knock knock
I take whatever I have asked for.
I claim all the blessings that are for me
It’s frustrating to see part of your blessing is out of your control
But it’s not gonna stop me from doing what I have to do to claim my rewards
I speed and I shall reap
What God has for me
it is for me
