I Don't Know Much, but

I don't know much, but I do know that if you got your mind right you can pretty much accomplish whatever you want. Everybody is not bout that life though. Some people would rather complain about circumstances and not take responsibility for their current state.

I don't know much, but I know it's not worthwhile to envy someone else's relationship. Just because they smile doesn't mean they are happy. Some people out here are in some f*cked up marriages and relationships. Get your soul and spirit prepared for what you want to receive and don't be fooled about what someone else has.

I don't know much, but I know there is an agenda at work using race to tear America apart. I cannot be a willing participant though. I have too many friends and people I respect that are not the same color as me.

I don't know much, but I know that my God is within me. I have done my fair share of studying history. I know that my ancestors were enslaved, beaten, dehumanized, raped, and sold. And we were left with a book we weren't reading before called "Holy Bible."

I don't know much, but I know people can be real fickle. One of the great challenges of life is to find authentic people. A person that will "keep it real," a person that's "word is their bond" is a person worth keeping around for a long time. They give it to you straight and won't waste your time.

I don't know much, but I know how to survive. I've taken so many losses but survival runs in my blood. And I've been cut from the cloth of being strong, solid at many different things. Fitness, resiliency, patience, yearning for learning, focus, work ethic, entrepreneurship, networking, appearance, swag, adaptation, leadership......the list goes on. I can bring a lot to the table. This makes me a great friend....and a dangerous enemy.

I've noticed a lot in the last few years some view me as a threat. And the thing about it is that I'm so comfortable in my own skin, confident in my ability that I don't worry much about what they think or do. My success and life philosophy has never endured when I hated on others. I serve people; and I don't bother with those that don't want or need me. I get in where I fit in.
