My moms would often remind me when I was younger to humbly thyself. She is a real religious woman of god who distilled in all her kids some good values and morals. Although some people (you know who you are) think my morals are f**ked up, that another story. For whatever reason, lately I have been extremely irritable and it seems like everyday I can't get enough sleep, and when I do wake up, I'm always waking up on the wrong side of the bed. But I finally feel a lil better, after reminiscing with an old ponta, cuz one of my old pontas hit me up from waaaaay back when I use to stay in Frisco on here, which was cool.
What also made me feel a lil better was thinking about how my moms would tell me how to humble myself and just deal with things. I think what I'm going through is a real humbling experience, after graduating I expected so much more, instead I'm faced with hella problems, rather than being able to to what I thought I would be doing. But after thinking long and hard, I guess it best for me, what don't kill me will only make me stronger.
