I felt as though I needed to address this because I understand there are many people that view my material and out of love and respect, I am typing this post.
I am personally going through a transitional phase right now and it conflicts with what my parents see for me and what I see for myself. I understand that they only want what's best for me but at the same time, I am trying to stand on my own two feet and make the correct decisions regarding myself and those immediate to me. I have my mother who will barely look at me, let alone say hello to me. I have my father who is being extremely strict upon me and close-minded about my choices. I tolerate all of this because I was raised to be very family-oriented as well as respectful in honoring my parents (for those that don't know, I am Christian) but it tries my patience in doing what I believe is correct (in regards to the kids I teach, the material I put out online, the people I associate with, etc.) and being brought down to feel less of a person because of my morals and beliefs. I will always have love for my parents (and for those that aren't as fortunate to have that luxury, I truely pray for) but it comes to deciding between biting my tongue to respect my parents wishes and becoming a man of God and living out a life that I believe I should be living.
This is just some stuff that has been on my mind, if you don't agree with my viewpoints, I will not force that upon you. I am an extremely open-minded Christian and if you decide not to follow me on here, youtube, etc because of the words or opinions expressed within this post, I understand but know that these emotions that are evoked are out of love, not spite for all those that read this.
God bless.
With love,
