Relationships, jobs, friendships, goals… if it costs nothing, it usually gives nothing. The easiest things to get tend to be the most underwhelming, the least lasting, or the most chaotic.

Quality takes time, effort, and yes, discernment. Fast and free? That usually comes with a heavy price tag later.

That’s why I don’t trust anything that’s too eager, too shiny, or too available. That includes sales racks and people.

This is what I call wisdom working from every angle. I remember back in the day when I first joined GC, the D&R thread was hoppin, and I remember you posting you didn’t mess with dudes who are hanging on the clearance rack. I hollered LOL!

I try to incorporate this in my everyday life.

We need more people like PGD-GRAD. So many pissed off people in this country today..
