Crazy Uncle Bulcha’s Pillars to a friend’s son

I don’t plan on having kids ever.

I’ve helped raise two younger siblings that I was 9 and 12 years older. I love my rascals but they permanently ruined kids for me.

So I’ve accepted the Uncle Bulcha moniker as I’ve come to mentor my younger friends and the kids they bear.

One of my friends back home just had a son recently, and as a gift, I gave him Uncle Bulcha’s Pillars (pending patent) to install in his child.

And because I love my readers and the supporting messages you guys have given me. I figure I pass these Pillars onto you.

You can read them, implement them, criticize it, laugh at them. Do whatever you please, but all I ask is that you live an honest and authentic life.

And without further adieu, here are the Pillars.

Uncle Bulcha’s Pillars to Life:

1. The fact that you were born demonstrates that you have value. You have inherent traits that make yous different. There will never be another you in the existence of this universe. So do not ever hold your value based on the economy, external values, or false ideals. You hold more value than you can imagine, but it’s up to you to exude that.
2. Don’t ever use your physical traits as an excuse to be a victim. Whether that be your skin color, scars, lack of muscles, fat. Nobody ever got anything done thinking they were a victim. People like Malcolm X and David Goggins didn’t use their skin color to accept victimhood. In fact, they leveled up to be more than what anybody else could imagine.
3. There is nothing wrong with being a masculine man.
4. Self-education will be key to long-term growth. If you want peace of mind, educate yourself in philosophy, business, self-improvement, spirituality, etc. If you want inner turmoil, read, listen, and consume social media, the media, and the public school system. Nobody is going to live your life, so it is up to you to find the wisdom to help you navigate the rough seas of life.
5. As long as you have self-respect (meaning you know your own value), you won’t ever come to need anyone else or come off as needy. A lot of drama and relationship problems can stem from one person not having the self-respect to not allow any BS in their lives.

Alright, I don’t want to keep lecturing here.

But here are some of Uncle Bulcha’s Pillars. If you guys like this or hate it, let me know and I’ll respond accordingly.

Remember guys, you have one life to live and you better do your best in living a life you can be proud of.

Forget all the toxic people, the discouraging media, the insecurity induced social media.

Go out and be your true self.

Hopefully, my self-conceited Pillars can help you do this.
