"Long Road Blues," - Relationship building romantically and platonically has never been easy for me. As of late it has left me with a feeling of inferiority that has grown too heavy for me to bare. I'm learning day by day to not take things personally, and that other's actions or lack there of aren't a reflection of me. Yet, that doesn't make it hurt any less. But I understand, that everything will come when it comes, and I won't have to force it. "It's a long old road, but I'm gonna find the end, and when I get there, I'm gonna shake hands with a friend."

For all of my childhood into my early adulthood, people had no qualms about calling me, “ugly.” They said I was, “too black,” “too skinny,” with teeth that were, “too fucked up.” These sentiments I internalized, and became a driving force as to why I put so much work into my appearance. “If they notice the fit, they won’t look my face,” was my motto! I never felt attractive enough to take a selfie, much less post one. I took this selfie some days ago, and was in awe of the man that was in front me. I said, “damn nigga you don’t look half bad!” The second photo, I’ve never really shared with anyone outside of close friends, but we all start from somewhere. Here’s to more selfies, self love, confidence and maturity.
