As a black man I feel hated and despised by many. Hate to me is one of the most wicked of the evils in this world today. If I turn to hate those who hate me then there is no difference between us. I don’t want to be anything like them.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Almost everything--all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure--these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. #<Author:0x00007f25dd303680>
