It's like you look like you want to buy me something to drink. And that may not necessarily always be the case. Maybe just that one person wants to get something to drink. If they see you, they can acknowledge you, but it doesn't mean that you're entitled to get a drink or anything like that. Or even better, let's say like you're high school or college or elementary or middle school

Hey, Al, it's Erica at Souljourney One. K here. How are you doing? I don't even know what I could add to your words there. I mean, you pretty much summed up entitlement, and when I look up the definition of entitlement, it means a person who feels they have a right to something. And when you look at the definition of it, it's such a concrete definition, right?

Hey Erica, how are you doing? This is Al Khasby here. I just listened to your reply and I'm just amazed at what you said as well. Interestingly. When I decided to cover the topic of entitlement today, I wasn't even thinking about just history in general, about how things started in Africa, how we were over there

And I found the book that gave gave me exactly what I needed. So it was like a blast from the past using the book. But yeah, thank you again for that swell, Captain, for giving the food for thought there

But interestingly, when you said that, I was thinking about when I was working on my bachelor's degree and I had to do my papers for my communication courses, sociology courses, and philosophy courses and literature courses. What happened is my college professors always said to never use Wikipedia, and I'm sure you know what Wikipedia is
It's always for the benefit of us. Because me, I'm in a good space and she, which is you, she is in a better space as well because she's open to talking and communicating with you. So if you bring that unison to us, follow me, you guys will be better. And at that time, Entitlement doesn't mean anything. It's almost to whom you believe. See, Entitlement goes on based on who you dated, the experience you had with Entitlement

And again, I really enjoyed just your reply to the whole swell cast on entire entitlement. And as I always say, stay blessed and keep inspiring, bro. And shout out to your university too
It's your prerogative to try, but many better people have tried to shut me up and failed. You're not going to do it. You're not going to do it. Clearly, on social media, it's easy. You just hit the block button and there you go. I'm blocked. But you're not going to cancel me because you're not going to impose your entitlement upon me. That's not how it works. That's not how it works with me

And with any company that you join, if you start at the top, there's no room for growth. So it's like, again, you got to pay your dues. You got to put that work. But again, I definitely appreciate your reply, and as I always say, stay blessed and keep inspiring, brother
