We've all had something happen to us in life that we could learn from. It doesn't have to be tragic or unfortunately, but what has happened in your life that warranted the best advice you ever recieved? What was the advice?
When I was 14, I got off the trolley in Camden, NJ, with a bulky MP3 player, a UNC Jordan throwback, and the baby blue and white Jordan I's. I got held up at gunpoint. I told my cousin about it and he said, "that's what you get for being a pretty boy. Dress for the weather, and the environment, lil' n*gga." Outstanding advice. |

I was having a serious conversation with some very good friends of mine about stuff that I had dont in the past and still holding on to it.
"I don't know why, but when I want to let it go, I can't." "That's because you still see it as a part of you. That's not who you are anymore." -- I read this in the book, A Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls: "Things will work out in the end." "But what if they don't?" "Then you haven't reached the end yet." I could go on with all of the things that people have said to me that have impacted me. |
