Friday Thought

Some folks are so thirsty for friendships, they'll befriend anyone even if it's not in their best interest. 

Hard Truth

Repost (Shun Dennis Strickland)

Hard truth:

Sometimes families stop gathering because once Big Mama is gone there is no reason to put up with the toxic behavior that went on for generations. 

Ya'll were never close, you just all loved her. 

Blood doesn't make us family, just related. 

Post of the year. The younger generation sees the 💩 the older generation put up with for the sake of family, and wants no part of that.🤷🏾‍♂️Family is important, but not important enough for constant drama. There comes a time in one’s life where you must remove yourself from toxic environments. Another reason is that many of the elders in the family have passed, and family reunions just aren’t the same without Big Mama, Grandaddy, etc.

Shanquella Robinson

 I send my condolences to Shanquella Robinson’s family; their loved one died at the hands of her frenemies. The death of Shanquella Robinson by her so-called “friends” should serve as a wake-up call to watch those you’re cool with. Some people will continue kekeing with everybody who shows them love.🤷🏾‍♂️I see why some people stay to themselves because you don’t know who’s legit anymore. Some people get close to you and pull mess like this, so it’s almost not worth it to befriend people.

Today’s Thought

I appreciate a concerned woman just like every man does, but some women should understand one thing: If she asks her man what's on his mind and he doesn't tell her, it means 2 things: 1. He doesn't want her to know, and 2. He could be going through something major and doesn't want to burden her. Men are solvers by nature, and sometimes men aren't going to tell their woman what's wrong because he's focused on fixing the problem. 

Greater Faith

God will give you the desires of your heart. He put those desires there for us to submit to Him, that we’d trust Him to fulfill it. Wait on what’s yours. #greaterfaith 

Today Message: Choose Who You Help

It's funny how people will try to condemn you for not helping others. They'll accuse you of "blocking your blessings". Okay, so why aren't YOU helping those people? "NO" isn't just a 2-letter word, but a whole sentence. Some people have to have enough discernment and realize when they're being taken advantage of. I am NOT that person that's gonna offer to help everybody who asks me for it because I can't help a person who's not willing to help themselves.

All of this. My version of helping someone is giving them a blueprint, and watching them put the work in themselves. For me, I’ll figure it out myself before I ask anyone for help, because a lot of people will throw up in your face what they did & do for you.

Trump/DeSantis Political Beef

At first, former President Donald Trump was singing Ron DeSantis’ praises, now Trump is jealous of DeSantis’ popularity in the GOP. I’m not surprised that Trump is jealous of Ron DeSantis’ popularity in the GOP. Trump knows that DeSantis is his biggest challenger for the 2024 presidential race.
