Priorities
April 17, 2020
if i had a dollar
for every damn time
an adult told me
"youre a smart kid",
"youre an intelligent kid",
"youre very smart",
etc. when they wanted me
to be better or
act better or
put more effort in,
i'd probably have enough money
where my intelligence wouldnt matter
because i could buy my way through these issues.
-it isnt my intellect affecting my actions, its my priorities and this isnt one
