Im so blessed that you did because within two years i got divorced rent to rehab and truly dove into figuring out how to love myself became from day one you were open and honest about things most men aren't strong enough to admit. Thank you for being a real man admitting your struggles/weak points as well as giving people a path to overcome their personal weaknesses. Its stories like yours and watching men like you grow and overcome that has kept me in the fight and trying to be a better man every day.

Life is what you make it. You create your own pains way before experiencing them.

1000% can relate to that colorism and racism thing growing up and and dealing with feeling isolated cause of that. I still deal with that some to this day. People look at me weird when I say it but I’ve genuinely experienced just as much if not more racism and prejudice from black people( while being black) for being lightskin or not being “black enough” as I have from white people. The lil jokes and stuff are funny sometimes but I’ve literally been excluded and talked about by “my own people” time after time growing up for just being me and for doing/liking the things I like.

@CleannSlate 10 күн бұрын

I was raised to speak articulately, but some people will tell me I “talk white”. I was raised to dress presentably at all times because you never know who you might bump into, but some will say I dress like I’m “from the suburbs”. I echo everything you’ve shared, and a part of me even at 30yo holds a grudge against my parents for raising me in a “white neighborhood”. But they were only trying to give me an upbringing that they dreamed of. Safety, comfort, peace. Now these kids are growing up with social media, and I can’t imagine the level of judgement they might be receiving from their “brothers & sisters”. WE, as a Black community, have to do better uplifting and encouraging our Black peers. No matter what they sound, look, or act like. It really is important. Thank you for your comment. And thank you Darren Waller for being vulnerable. Your journey is a healing tool for a lot of people.
