My Two Cents About Somebody Else’s Business — LOL

Soooo…

I don’t usually speak on celebrities’ business unless something about it resonates with me or hits me a certain way. So today’s big news on social media is Jada Pinkett Smith revealing that she and Will have been separated since 2016. I haven’t heard the interview or the whole story—and I absolutely detest click bait—however, this time I’m biting and adding my two cents.

Y’all, life be lifing! Let’s be real, we have absolutely no idea where life is going to take us. We are blindsided every day by things we didn’t see coming. And most of the time it’s not due to other people’s actions but our own. Sometimes we wake up and decide to react or respond to things differently. It happens. I don’t know why. Can’t explain it. But it happens. The only possible explanation is we are human.

I don’t know about you but I am far from perfect. I try not to judge people because I know firsthand that life can take unexpected turns no matter how much you plan. It’s the story of my life. As I have said before, I had my entire life planned out as a child. Then, one blow to my plan literally took me out. And it didn’t stop there. I continuously made decisions that took me even further away from that plan. Looking back I hate how it happen but most of it was necessary. Anyway, it took me nearly 30 years to stop blaming myself for how things happened and for feeling like a failure.

Y’all, I’m saying all of this to say, life is going to do what it does. It’s up to us to figure out how we handle it. And hopefully we have people around us who will support and love us unconditionally when it does.

I read Will’s book and loved it. Can’t wait to read Jada’s. I have been rocking with them both for over 30 years and I’m not going to let their authenticity, vulnerability or life in general, stop me from supporting them. As I have said before, life be lifing. Don’t be so quick to judge or throw people away because you never know when you’ll need the same kind of support and understanding. It’s called grace.

Thank you for reading to my two cents. Wishing you a blessed day. Love you!♥️
