“everything you did brought you where you are now.
home.” – bran stark to theon greyjoy,
game of thrones

that quote really stuck with me since last night’s episode.
i’ve been thinking about it all day.
for those who know theon’s arc on “game of thrones”,
you know what he got humbled in order to come “home”.
i remember reading a book called “the alchemist” a few years ago…

imagine you’re working in your career.
you could be doing it now.
you.
are.
the.
shit.
king kong don’t have nothing on you.
you been doing it like 10-15 years now.
even better since you’re black.
you know they don’t like “us” to shine out here.
suddenly,
they are trying to replace you with someone else.
it starts slow,
but then it gets more blatant.
the slander starts that you ain’t good at what you do at all.

“anyone could do what they do.
that’s nothing.”

folks you thought was down with you are picking a new team.
“the new you”.
  don’t act like you wouldn’t feel some kind of way…

mya has a song called “its all about me”.
first album.
the chorus goes:

“its all about me me me me me…
forget about you you you you…”

the song was about her saying she wanted to be pampered by her man that night.
more often than not,
we get into this nasty habit of giving too much of ourselves to everyone.
someone sends a text,
we reply right back.
someone calls and we must pick up on the second or third ring.
someone is horny and we must go fuck them.
we can be way too available.
i’m realizing that is actually bad and needs to killed with fire…

jamari fox is selfish.
 my time,
my emotions,
my money,
my booty,
my throat,
 my heart.
well now.
i use to be “nice”,
bending over backwards for everyone,
but i have realized that the nice foxes usually get left behind.
there is such great power in keeping that “nice” thing in check,
but it always seems to hard to activate it.
i had to wonder…

Why is it so hard to be selfish about what we deserve?…
