...the statement above can be counter-productive to your quest for self-growth, but honestly, there are just times that I don't care...and that's fine....one of the reasons why I hold Dr. West and other people like him in such high regard, is because they will challenge EVERYTHING, but it's done with respect, and out of sheer curiosity. I don't have that kind of courage (yet), and don't wish to use that much energy (yet).
...some friends have become "just people I know," while some "people I know" have become friends. Life works like that, and sometimes, I don't wanna know why.
...hypocrisy is...fascinating. I think that's why I'll always say 'Pac is the man for life. Yeah, he was a hypocrite, but he spoke from his heart. I'll take that anyday.
...when you're searching for truth in yourself and clarity, there are gonna be things that conflict; there may be times when things are said that are contrary to what you believed yesterday, but guess what? As long as its genuine, keep searching. Who cares if people don't like it? They aint God.
...sometimes, people use $40 words to convey a $5 thought. I still don't know how to feel about that.
...on one hand, single is cool. You can talk to as many women as you want, and as long as its done with respect (is that an oxymoron?), then I see no problem with it. Women can do this, too. Oh yes; you can be a queen, and talk to as many dudes as you want, as long as you do it with respect for yourself and others. On the other hand, it's work to try and be so many things to so many people...yet that doesn't make it a good reason to get in a relationship. It's simple: get in a relationship, because you want to, not because you're tired of being single.
...genuine and real are not synonomous; they're not the same. If you claim to be real, cool. I'll take genuine any day.

Speak on it. First off, co-sign the Pac statement. Peeps really have no ideal just have potent and vocal dude really was.
I wrote a post about Tupac & Biggie, but it's not set to be blog published until next week. I wrote it after finally being able to watch Notorius.
I can see similar conviction within Dr. Cornel West, as well.
Back to your subject matter - I keep a I Don't Give A F*ck in my back pocket. And it'll be there still when they bury me. This society right here ... don't get me started.
Love the post, bruh.
I LOVE this. I identify with this the most as of late:
...some friends have become "just people I know," while some "people I know" have become friends. Life works like that, and sometimes, I don't wanna know why.
Anyway, very well said.
