We complain waaaay too much. And I’m not saying that shit ain’t fair. I’m not saying privilege doesn’t exist, glass ceilings ain’t right above our heads, or that the pay gap between men and women ain’t real. We can holler and scream all day until we’re blue in the face, but ‘they’ still aren’t going to see your worth.

I had a conversation with someone. She told me she had an issue getting the help she needed from her family. I told her that’s because they don’t see her value. They don’t see her vision, her dream like she had. If they don’t see, then they aren’t going to support. Because they don’t believe. I told her, “You gotta keep it moving and find creative ways to get the help you need. And don’t dwell on the ppl that’s not gonna bring your vision into fruition. Pray about it. And push on. Envision it. Live it. And breathe it in. Energy is real.”

I’m bringing this up because, I was recently contacted by a business for a collaboration. Mind you, when I first started blogging, I’d contacted them several times to write for them. For free! They ignored me every single time. Because they didn’t see my value. But guess what? They are in my inbox now…

So what I’m saying, keep going. Keep at it. Because right now, your knocking at doors, but one day, they might come knocking at yours.

I always think how easy it must be to be basic … And by basic, I mean a person who always has something to say about what your trying to achieve, a person who cannot see past their own nose, one who has no aspirations and allows others to dictate what paths they’ll take. The person who sits around while their whole life passes them by, never overcoming fear and taking the damn dive. The person who sits behind the computer screen and has sooo much to say but comes with very little substance in ‘real’ life.
But then I really think about it. That basic person has it much harder than I. Internally, they are damn near dead. Numb.
How hard must it be to stay stagnant, while others pass you in this race called life?
Moral is, don’t be that person. Let’s do something today that we aint do yesterday. I don’t care if it’s big or small. DO. SOMETHING. I have this little analogy that I tell myself to get back on track (it works, mostly. Lol). For the times that I feel like my effort doesn’t mean anything. When I’m running in a damn circle. “Your efforts, seen and unseen, are like little seeds. You toss them around and hope the rain comes and the sun comes and gives it what it needs to latch on and grow. A lot of the seeds won’t make it. But one will. And it will flourish beyond belief. All you need is that one seed. Keep planting. Keep hoping.”

A lot of times I get reassurance that I’m doing right thing by telling my stories. They say I’m brave for putting myself out there. Especially as a Muslim woman. But I also get those other people who insert themselves between myself and my religion, questioning how I can call myself Muslim and wear tight clothes or smear lipstick on my lips or go on dates. How I can write about semi-vulgar topics or FB live myself getting a Brazilian wax. They insert themselves into my diet, not knowing that I frequent the gym. They inquire about my family which I try to conceal since it’s broken due to mental illness. Sometimes, I wonder if I really am doing the right thing. On that ‘correct’ path. Should I have ever started being so candid with my blogging. That maybe I just should’ve stuck to chatting about trends and style.
