Seem like alot of y'all are optimistic and happy. How do y'all get through the day without snapping ? maintaining a healthy diet? working out ? etc

That always amazed me...seeing black men my age not losing their mind. Whats the philosophy. I know y'all gotta study some ancient shyt.

In order to get where I want to be in life I gotta trick myself into being positive and happy. I need some game.

I've been through a lot of stress and hard times in my life and I've come up with a few rationalizations as to why it's not so bad:

1. I could've been a Zebra getting chased by predators.

2. If I had as much fun with women as I wanted to, I likely would've had a kid, and I'm still not ready for that.

3. My ancestors had it way harder than me.

4. There are a lot of people that have harder lives than me. I have my health, both mentally and physically, and a lot of people take that for granted. I'm often reminded that life is short, and things could end abruptly and tragically. So i just take it day by day trying to do the things I want to do.

Maybe I just tell myself this to help me sleep at night, but it works lol. I also just have an easy going personality and don't let the bad things in life depress me too much.

You must seek balance. This balance cannot be found Outside. Everyone one of us are way way way out of our Black Minds. While we are in this condition, at war, the Sky is still blue, the sunrise/set is so nice always, even if it is overcast, my plants are growing well and, and, and....you must trick yourself while you are surrounded by your poor and pale spoils of the war being waged against you and your people.

I should probably say convince, because if u think we will fail kill yourself. Being weak is a cac trait. Life as a Black Person is challenging but we are born with grace and cool to Make It Look Easy.

A positive outlet where you can measure growth. :smile:

You know if this art thing doesn't work out for you, maybe you should try writing. You basically already do it, except it's spent shytposting here. Have you ever tried medium.com?

I often get reminded, on beautiful days, that no matter where you are in the world, even if it's a boring city and you've been there too long etc., nothing can take away nature's beauty.

I came to the realization recently that, at least with regards to African Americans, we have very strong genes. Our ancestors went through absolute hell and those that survived, birthed us into the world. Now unfortunately, it has been somewhat deluded by white rapists and c00ns wanting to fit in, but we are still able to deal with rough situations much better than some other groups.

For me, my emotional state is a juggling act of pessimism and optimism, a blend of hope and despair, a belief that we will triumph over these demons anchored by the daily racism I personally encounter and witness black men and women fall victim to. If I am cynical about anything, it is the capacity of our young black men and women to stop pleading for white acceptance. At times, I feel the hold of the media and its lies is too strong. I almost wish the c00ns and wenches would die off and let the rest of us get to work.:francis:

Take it day by day brother, emotions and people and culture constantly change. Tryna to keep with it all will drive you crazy nothing is new under the sun. See what you want in life and chase after it honorably in a way that can make god and yourself proud there will be pit stops the world is full of them life but we choose what we accept and how we react learn to navigate through life you got a strong spirit and a lot of talent that alone are two blessings to count on. keep on living and exploring discover new passions and people life is far from glamorous sometimes but that doesn’t mean we can’t make it glamarous which I think your art portrays very well. I know it doesn’t seem like it sometimes but you got a lot of time left man to be whatever you can up and decide to be a lawyer, author, get heavy into spirituality and religion wherever your path takes you just know you a dope individual regardless with or w/o money or fame or a fly chick on your arm you got heart bruh and no matter what anyone says that counts for a lot.

Given your highly detailed mind, it will involve you being able to decipher from the chaos, your art is very chaotic but very organized. Private messages me, i will contact you through other means. Im dead serious when i buffalo.
