i got an interesting question from a foxholer in foxmail.
it’s one that i thought about for quite some time.
“What would your 2017 self tell your 2018 self?”
well,
after doing some pondering,
i would tell myself a few things actually…
NEVER START LACING UP SNEAKERS TO CHASE ANYONE THAT LEAVES YOUR LIFE
WORDS ARE ONLY MEANT TO TEMPORARILY SHUT YOU UP
FOLKS DON’T CHANGE UNLESS THEY’RE WILLING
THE WORD “NO” SHOULD BE USED MORE OFTEN
MOST OF THE WOLVES I LIKED/WANTED/EMBARRASSED MYSELF FOR ARE LEGIT WACK SAUCE
THEY WERE NEVER YOUR FRIENDS
SAYING GOODBYE IS FUN! MORE OF IT!
THEY DON’T LIKE YOU AND YOU DON’T LIKE THEM; LEARN TO CO-EXIST
THEY GET IT TOGETHER WHEN I’M ON MOOD “HE BITCH”
“I’M NOT INTERESTED” IS A LEGIT VIBE
THE VILLAIN IS NOT A BAD ROLE TO PLAY WHEN THEY MAD THEY COULDN’T GET OVER ON YOU
BARK LOUDER BECAUSE THEY DON’T BE HEARING YOU
YOU AREN’T THE PROBLEM WHEN YOU COMPARE YOURSELF TO THE IDIOTS
THOSE FEELINGS OF PURE HAPPINESS? FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE THEM LAST LONGER
FUCK A DRAGGING; SAY WHAT YOU FEEL AND MEAN WHAT YOU SAY
MORE STYLE AND SWAGG INSPIRATION
START UNBOXING THE BAGGAGE OF YOUR MESS
and lastly:
BLOGGING IS FREE THERAPY; USE IT
as i say farewell to 2017,
i look forward to what fun my 2018 self gets into.
Bark louder because they don’t be hearing you
I would say your more then a woman or a wife and a mother your the beauty of every mind who can’t speak up for him self but you can help them believe in hope.
Love it I can relate to a lot of yours, mine would be the following:
EVERYONE ELSE CAN SEE THE LIGHT IN YOU, ITS TIME YOU START SEEING IT AND USING IT
HANDLE SMALL MOMENTS OF DISRESPECT TOWARDS YOU BEFORE THEY GET THE CHANCE TO GET BIGGER
REALIZE A CRUSH IS JUST A CRUSH
SAY NO MORE AND MEAN IT
GOD ALWAYS HAS YOU POINT BLANK
GO AFTER THE THINGS YOU WANT NOW STOP WAITING FOR SOME PERFECT SITUATION TO HAPPEN TO DO IT
BECOME THE NIGGA YOU WANNA GET PHYSICALLY
Have a happy new year foxhole
Amen to all of this. Happy New Year foxhole!!!!
Aye, Jamari…

…to a shedding of a shitty year and realizing your worth, and “CHEEERS!” to new beginnings in the next.
^YOU TOO JB!!!!
2017 can go!!
NOW!!
Well said Jamari. Now here is what I will say to my 2018 self:
1. STOP FUCKING WITH PEOPLE WHO KNOW THEY AIN’T SHIT
2. STOP WASTING TIME WITH LONG WINDED PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE ASSHOLES
3. LEARN TO LET GO AND LET GOD (BECAUSE IT’S MUCH EASIER)
4. FOCUS ON YOURSELF BECAUSE IT’S MUCH EASIER THAN FOCUS ON OTHER PEOPLE
5. NOT EVERYONE IS OUT TO GET YOU, SO STOP LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER (BUT KEEP YOUR EYES AND EARS PEELED FOR ANY FUNNY SHENANIGANS)
6. STOP BEING DESPERATE AND JUST WAIT. YOUR MAN IS COMING AND YOUR DREAM JOB.
7. STOP COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHER PEOPLE (BECAUSE THEY ARE WACK SAUCE AND YOU’RE CREME DE LE CREME)
8. PEOPLE THAT HAVE HURT YOU BACK THEN ARE MOVING ON, SO WHY AREN’T YOU?
9. IF THE PEOPLE THAT YOU HAVE HURT HAS MOVED ON, THEN LOOSE THEM AND LET THEM GO (BECAUSE THEY AREN’T INTERESTED AND AIN’T SHIT TO BEGIN WITH)
I’ve been always told that I should take my own advice, but I don’t because it’s hard to do so. I feel like that’s my biggest problem. Then again, the way people are set up, I don’t know.
^”1. STOP FUCKING WITH PEOPLE WHO KNOW THEY AIN’T SHIT
2. STOP WASTING TIME WITH LONG WINDED PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE ASSHOLES
5. NOT EVERYONE IS OUT TO GET YOU, SO STOP LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER (BUT KEEP YOUR EYES AND EARS PEELED FOR ANY FUNNY SHENANIGANS)

9. IF THE PEOPLE THAT YOU HAVE HURT HAS MOVED ON, THEN LOOSE THEM AND LET THEM GO (BECAUSE THEY AREN’T INTERESTED AND AIN’T SHIT TO BEGIN WITH)”
facts all day; every day.
love this b.
may you achieve it all for 2018.
