I Don’t Care Until It’s Time To Care

 Repost (Brittney Brown: Life Coach)

We live in a culture where we don’t care until it’s time to care. Your homeboy been trying to get in touch with you for months, your spouse has been telling you what they don’t like that you’re doing and how much it’s bothering them, mama been asking you to stop by the house. Now he lost his job and house then you want to reach out, now that divorce papers are served and you want to change, now she’s told the doctor says she only has 6 months now you want to spend time. I know everyone has a busy life, but you make time for what you care about. Start doing what’s genuine instead of what’s customary.

3 Takeaways from Kalief Browder story:

1. New York authorities waited until Venida (Kalief’s mother) died before they finally agreed to $3.3 million settlement to his family.

2. The father is a classic example of a coward: Left the family when things got “too much” for him. He believed the narrative about his son being a criminal. But when money was involved, he was all in.

3. Kalief had more heart than most because how many of us would fight to the death to prove innocence? He did that.
