The College Dropout

School is hard. College is hard, probably the most hardest thing you will ever do in life and the fastest. I find myself wanting to drop out at times and at other times I want to stick it through. Stay in school kids no matter how hard it may be. The world needs more self-conscious, phli, enstrumental leaders. When in doubt always remember:

Do what you have to NOW so you can do whatever you want to LATER.

I Ain’t Cornel West I’m Cornel Westside



Last night, Drew and I were
EXTREMELY privileged to attend the lecture of Dr. Cornel West. With only an hour to speak, Dr. West covered a plethora (Drew inspired word) of issues plaguing minorities. It sounded crazy and jumbled to me at first but as I listened, the brother made great points along with quoting Wu Tang several times :)

There was one topic in particular that he covered that struck close to home with Drew and I:

There are too many echoes runnin' around and not enough voices. You can never find who you are being an echo. Having a voice is what separates you from the echoes.


Honestly, I couldn't have said it better myself aside from my
A carbon copy is weaker than the original
motif.

IDK about you guys, but Drew and I have our voices. Although they aren't as loud as they should be at times we have them, we express them, and we live them. Everyone talks about what they want to do when expressing what you want to do is not necessary when you have the capability to get the hell up and do it!

Not only is finding your voice is important, finding your OWN voice is even more important. This world has 6 billion people, 6 billion ideas, 6 billion different destinies, 6 billion fates. So why are we so caught up in following others footsteps and being the next (INSERT NAME HERE) when each generation is supposed to progress? The word innovation was created for a reason. I don't know about y'all but I don't want to be the the next (INSERT NAME HERE). I want to be the next Rene' Morrell because that's all I can be.

Voices are continuously heard over time, echoes get weaker over time.
