1
If somebody want to walk out of your life LET THEM GO and get up and go on with your life!! It's all right - sit around be depressed for a minute. Cry about it - do whatever you have to but don't stay there too long. Get up and go on with your life!
2
So you know what I - this is what I learned in all these years.
3
If somebody want to walk out of your life -LET THEM GO!!
4
Especially if you know you done everything you can do... You can sit around and been the best man or the best woman you could be and they still want to go... LET THEM GO!!
5
Whatever they running after... They'll see what they had in a minute. But by the end it's going to be too late because you're sick and you go... Because half these people you'd be sitting around crying about it... Worried about... Two - Three years from now you ain't gonna even remember their last name! How many times you've seen folks somewhere you'd be like "What the hell was I thinking?".
6
I don't think that I'd be like "What was wrong with me! What was I going through? I must have been lonely as hell to hook up with you!". Let folks go son!! Some people come in your life for a lifetime.
7
Some come for a season. You got to know which is which and you can always mess up when you mix them!
8
Uh seasonal people up with lifetime expectations. You can't - they got people that got married with people they was only supposed to be with for a season. They only supposed to be there for a season and they wonder why they're having so much hell in their life...
9
That was the person that was supposed to come and teach you one thing you didn't know. It so you just fell in love and now you're wondering why you ain't got no peace... Nowhere you go!
10
No - no listen! I put everybody come in my life in the category of a tree.
11
Some people are like leaves on the tree. Wind blow - they over here - they're unstable...
12
Blow the other way - they're over here... Ain't no season change - they wither and die. They gone...!
13
It's all right... There's some people - most people in the world are like that. They just there to take from the tree! They ain't getting there to do nothing but take and give shade every night!
14
And then that's all they can do! But don't don't get mad at people like that - that's who they are...
15
They'll never be nothing! That's what they put on this earth to be but be! What they are a leaf.
16
Some people are like a branch on that tree. You gotta be careful with them branches too!
17
Because they'll fool you... They'll get that - make you think they're a good friend and they real strong but the minutes you step out there on them they'll break and leave you high and dry!
18
But if you find you two or three people in your life that's like the roots at the bottom of that tree... You are blessed! Because that's them - the kind of people that ain't going nowhere!
19
They ain't worried about being seen - don't nobody have to know that they know you... They ain't got to know what they're doing for you... But if them roots weren't there - that tree couldn't live.
20
You understand and they ain't got a hole. A tree can have a hundred million branches but only a few roots down at the bottom to make sure we get everything I need! You guys I'm telling you something... When you get you some roots - hold on to them! But the rest of them - LET IT GO!!
21
Just LET IT GO - let folks go! I'ma do - it's not always that easy... Ain't nobody said it was gonna be easy but it'll get easy when you learn how to love yourself. When you get to a point in your life... When you look at people and you go okay - wait a minute - you or me? You will make a decision because when you telling folks to do something and I never thought nobody.
22
I've never in my life - nobody would just say "Look don't bother me no more! Don't talk to me!". I've never done it! What I do is - I tell say "Look this thing you doing right here - that's going to cause a problem! You need to fix that because if we going to be friends - we're going to be cool... You got to fix that and if you don't we're going gonna have an issue!". If you see somebody fix it... They even trying to fix it... That's somebody that care! Keep them people around!
23
That's a leaf that's trying to grow up and be something else - you understand! But if you tell somebody that what you doing is hurting me and I need you to stop it and they keep doing it...
24
They don't care! Move on - LET THEM GO! No matter how much it hurt... LET THEM GO and it'll get easier. I promise you - every day it'll get easier and easy and easy... If you just got to make it through...
25
You hear me sonny and C.P. You got to learn how to be by yourself son. People have to learn how to be alone. I don't understand, only people who "I need somebody Lord! Where's my man Lord? Where's my...?".
26
That is crazy as hell! If you don't know how to be by yourself - What you gonna do with somebody else?
27
Stop praying about it! Shut up and wait! Go work on you! Hell that's what that time is for to get yourself. Together I'd rather be in a corner by myself with a puppy and a goldfish and be happy - then to be sitting around with somebody in my house I'm wondering what the hell! Ain't there for you...?! You would be surprised the things people put up with just to have somebody to say they love them. That's - I don't understand! I can't live in dysfunction! I'm sorry - I'm sorry - I don't come through too much! Been through too much hell and high water to come there and let you come up in my adult life and when I'm supposed to be at peace and give me all kind of hair! Only two places on this earth you're gonna have peace - the grave and in your house. now if you can't walk up in your house and you ain't got no peace... Something wrong... Something wrong - I'm sorry!
28
People be rebuking Satan... I'd be rebuking Satan and beating the hell out of everything that's up in there till they get out!! I'm sorry - you got to go! This is mine! You hear me sonny? I do for sure! You better hear me for sure! If somebody want to walk out of your life - LET THEM GO!!

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
