Allow them to blackmail you.
Allow them to talk as they wish.
They don't know about your life.
They talk nonetheless.
Watch them and let things happen.
They aren't God.
They have no idea what lies ahead for you.
They are unaware of your fate.
They are standing there.
They're attempting to bring you down.
They are always damaging your character.
Let them do what they want; they are not your God.
Those people you like and trust.
People you know are family.
Those you thought could assist you.
Maintain your privacy until you reach your full potential.
They'll find out when the world honors you.

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
