Issa’s mom said Issa had her hand in too many pots and I felt that. No one talks about smart kids who have a lot of varying interests that turn into directionless adults. It’s hard to find your passion when it feels like your passion is everything #InsecureHBO
That’s probably why Molly thinks Issa is messy. Molly’s path seemed very linear where Issa had to fail and try new things to find her purpose.
I need for @IssaRae @The_A_Prentice @natasharothwell to see this because this response is crazy! I literally hopped on twitter like a month ago 😂
After 48hrs and this tweeet going strong I have some additional thoughts.
1. This was not at all a take down! Don’t feel bad about not having direction. We have to stop judging ourselves!
2. Some people took issue with “smart kids” and I get that. Who are these smart kids and who gets to label students? I was speaking from my experience and how I was labeled growing up
3. Everyone can experience feeling “lost” even people in those “linear” careers. There are also people who are good at a lot of things and lack passion for anything
