You know, you need to, why don't you just apply to community college? Like you could have been halfway with a degree by now. It's been two years. It's been, you know, all this time. And it broke my heart every Sunday. And I did give up, you know, at one point I did give up. So at one point I was over it. I was over music. It wasn't going anywhere.
That was after I met Kanye. Okay.
Yeah, and it was like a blank, you know, and I turned down my scholarships I had to college. I graduated school with like a 3.7 GPA. I was like, you know, I had like a lot of academic scholarships, all these things, and I turned it down. And then I was, it was non-responsive, but in hindsight, I look back, he was blowing up in his own right.
He was busy, you know, it's not the same, you know, you only see things from your perspective, especially when you're younger. And yeah, I just was like, I felt like I tried and gave it all I had. And I gave up and my mom, who is a teacher as well, she was the only one who was like, yo, what are you doing, man? Come on. You're registering for, come on, you got it. Just keep going. You got it.
This is what you're meant to do. This is what you believe in. Do it. Literally, months after that, that's when things started picking up. You can keep digging and digging and digging. Before I struck the gold, I gave up. That's what I mean. I had those guardian angels around me to keep it going.
Yeah, it's super common. Yeah. Super common.
Right, right. No, it doesn't.
Wow.
Well, every situation is different, right? So to someone who is experiencing miscarriages, and I can only speak from a man's perspective. I can't speak for a woman who really, their perspective is the most traumatic. But I can say that, first of all, you're worthy. I don't want you to think you're not worthy.
I don't want people to think that because they have a miscarriage that they're inadequate or that they're broken. I think that this life is complex and there are things we do and don't understand. And I think there's beauty in everything that's meant for you. And instead of trying to control exactly how you want your life to be, accept that it's going to be the life that is meant for you.
And you may get blessed with a child later on. You may get blessed with a child that comes into your life a different way. You may get blessed with, you have to keep your, sometimes we get so set on a goal, we don't keep the rest of our doors open of how the universe could bless us in that way. to not only fill that void, but even make it even greater. So I just want to keep an open mind.
But to anyone who does experience such an insufferable loss, go through it. Express yourself. Deal with that grief, but don't let it consume you. Sometimes you got to go through it just to get to it.
Well, to find the light in really dark times, sometimes... You have to realize that you are the light, but sometimes you got to embrace the darkness. You ever notice how when you're in the dark for a long time, you start to see better and things actually get lighter? For sure. I think that it's a natural human instinct to like... go into a mode of like fear based. And it's like, I need the light.
I need the light. Where's the light. And instead of just accepting that you are, you are for certain you are, you not only are you the light that there are as a darkness to you too, that's beautiful. And that you have to accept all aspects of yourself. You know, once you do accept it, I think it's easier to find the light or be the light.
I think, you know, once you really are comfortable in your environment, you will find and see the way to wherever it is you're trying to go.
I mean, what I did came from like when you highlight, when you really recognize the miracles and you're kind of supercharging them and you always see more miracles. There are so many miracles every single day. The fact that the sun is at the exact right place. And the moon is at the exact right place. And the oxygen is at the exact right. The fact that we are orbiting is a miracle, bro.
For real, if you think about it. Because one slight thing, everything is gone. You know what I'm saying? Everything is gone as shit fast. So that's one thing. But for me, when you list the miracles that you experienced personally that impact you personally, I feel like it breathes more. So for me...
Man, being on a pursuit of happiness and being able to actually see my dreams come true to a level is a miracle for me. This is in order, by the way. Having a son, that's for real a miracle because that's like creating something out of nothing. Man, waking up is a miracle. Everyone don't get to wake up, man.
being able to set goals and pursue them, you know, not even necessarily check them all off, but pursue them, being able to eat food and let it, Give me nutrition is a miracle, bro. So I'm not trying to just sit up here and be preaching positivity in that sense, but there are so many miracles that happen.
I remember one time I was down at a fireworks in Detroit and somebody was firing a gun and I saw it and it looked like I saw it and it went past me and it was a miracle I didn't get hit by any bullets. It was a miracle that when I got into a car accident and totaled my car when I was 16, I was able to climb out of the window. I couldn't even open the doors and nothing was wrong with me.
