Coping With Change

Lets see the biggest change that i have gone through this previous year is going from living in an apartment and having food, water, heat, etc. to living in my car for two weeks during the cold wintery season. Now, the next question is was it difficult and my answer to that is what do you think?

Change for me in life is not difficult at all because I'm used to it. I come from the hood where real things happen and it isnt any picnic either. So whenever something happens to me whether big or small I don't panic or lose my mind I just keep going; change isnt difficult it just sucks whenever it does come around.

Change is necessary because whether or not you want it to happen that's just the way the world works. Without change how can we move on in this hectic chaotic world?

College is different from High School because you have more freedom. You get to pick and choose what you want to do and you have less classes in a single day. The major changes involved with this process is you have to be on your toes and on point with everything you do because now you have more responsibility.

Yes, I have been a person to initiate change and the change was going to college. Me going to college is just like me doing anything else: one group is cheering me on while the other group is mad because I'm doing what they couldn't do.

Umm yes I have. Well, I guess you don't know what I'm saying yes to so I'll tell you. The emotional change was leaving my woman, family, and homies back home, but when it's time for a man to get up and do what he must do than emotions get thrown out the window. Physically its been lifting weights and playing ball at this collegiate level.

The change thats caused me the most anxiety was living in my car. The reason why I was feeling like this was not because thats how my cards were delt, but because I'm a MAN and I had no roof to put over my babys head or have a bathroom for her to take care of herself the proper way. Now, if you any type man at ALL than you understand what I'm talking about. How does that look me not being able to provide for my woman and I'm the man? But dont worry bout that though besause as long as I'm living she will always have a home and this will never NEVER happen again(God forbid).

Attitudes that stop change are the attitudes of weak minded people. People whos had everthing handed to them or those people who haven't gone through anything too extreme.

I'm unlike anything you've ever come across

My name is Antonio "weeble" Clements aka ghost and im 19 years of age. I'm here at Butler on a football scholarship, but thats not the main reason for me being here. I love money, but dont get it twisted or misunderstood. Money does not controll me and I will never sell my kinfolk or my homies out for a dollar, but lets be honest without money you can do nothing. I love my family, and the loyal homies that are with me, but above all I love God. He's the ONLY friend that has never let me down and no matter what the situation looked like he always always stepped in on time. Ummmmmm and shout outs to my 3 brothers: Monty, Brotha, and Travion. Also to my momma and to Porsche who is what defines a real woman.
