We are given the tools to escape the fire but we never return with the tools to put the fire out.
That’s the story of most successful people from historically impoverished places.
Let’s ARGUE!
I have been on both side of the argument!
“I got out they can too”
“Man it’s hard to get out, why leave to fail when you can fail in a comfortable place”
Sad to say, these were quotes that came out of my mouth, but at two different times in my life.
My childhood went from a fairytale movie to “Tales from the Crypt” in a blink of an eye.
I didn’t want to leave my family knowing we needed each other to survive, literally!
I almost dropped out of college for feeling guilty that my mom and siblings were living in a shelter while I was getting hot meals, baths and a bed to lie in without having to worry about a time clock ticking!
Thank God I had people around me telling me how stupid I was to think like that!
“How you gone help them when you don’t have nothing yourself”
It’s guilt y’all!
That’s what keep people in the state they are in!
We rather flex on another broke person to say “Aye, I’m broke but not as broke as you”
*Tucks shirt to show hood’s lot Gucci belt
Rather than get out gain infinite knowledge and share the knowledge to someone who NEED it!
We need solutions? Where do we start?
Let’s Talk about it!
Issa Problem.
