After a certain age, your parents slowly become your children. They ask simple questions, repeat stories, and depend on your patience the way you once depended on theirs. Very few understand this role reversal. What looks like innocence or inconvenience is really time coming full circle. Don't correct them harshly. Don't rush them. Care for them the way they once protected you. This is not a burden. It is repayment.
A family farm donated 87 acres of land to the city of Taylor, Texas to be made into a public park.

The problem is a lot of yall niggas did not grow up seeing your moms be pampered.. yall either saw y’all mommas working like dawgs, on drugs, with an abusive ass man or collective government assistance struggling to make ends meet.. a lot of y’all grew up with all half siblings and absent fathers, so you genuinely don’t know what the man’s role is supposed to be and that’s why a lot of yall can’t fathom giving a woman a soft life and being a provider bc you grew up believing women are supposed to be strong and take care of you! A lot of you niggas don’t even know to hold the door or walk on the outside of the sidewalk bc the only protector you ever had was a woman! Lmao
STAY CLEAR of the people who don’t value the small sacrifices you make… like spending money you barely have, showing up when you’re tired, giving advice, being a listening ear, carrying their problems, or being the one who checks in first.
My old tricking ass nigga just bought a new car I know he posted it for me I should've never watched his story now I'm tempted to respond to his message from a week ago. 🤣😂🤣 that money could've been in my pocket!!!

refuse to be a victim of generational curses ❤️
realizing you can't just labor your way into financial freedom is terrifying. hard work alone isn't enough anymore, there is a whole different system at play.
