You’re the goat when it’s free.
That’s when the applause is loud. That’s when the comments roll in. That’s when everybody suddenly sees the “vision.” But the moment you attach a number to your gift, the room gets quiet. The hype fades. The same people who called you different start asking if you can “just this one time” look out.

Three for you, negative three for me.
Time does not heal. It tolerates. It lets you function just enough to believe you are okay, then circles back to collect what you tried to bury. I move through my days disciplined, productive, even inspiring to some. But when it gets quiet, the truth sits beside me. Purpose feels different when the very thing…

I hate it here… but if I don’t, I’ll be alone

Everything falls apart the moment you stop participating.
Money. Time. Status. Power. None of it exists without collective participation, yet the moment you step back and actually look, the illusion starts cracking.

It’s the Phones
We bend our necks without thinking. We scroll without choosing. We absorb other people’s thoughts so often that we forget how to hear our own. And then we wonder why we feel disconnected, anxious, numb, or constantly behind in a race we never signed up for. I am not anti technology. I am anti unconscious…

I don’t take constructive criticism from anyone who hasn’t constructed shit.
The loudest critics are usually the ones who never entered the arena. I’ve watched too many talented people shrink because they listened to opinions that came from fear instead of experience. Confidence is built, not gifted. And belief starts within long before the world reflects it back

Who is we?
A question that sounds simple but carries generations of weight. A question that checks assumptions, exposes ownership, and reminds you that language is never accidental. We’ve been taught to answer without thinking, to accept labels that were never created by us and wear them like truth.
