Ugly

By: Gabriela Yareliz

I was listening to the Antonio Brown and Theo Von podcast episode on This Past Weekend with Theo Von. Theo was talking about how he saw a random recording someone took of him, and they called him ugly. Antonio went on to say that ugly means “swaggy.” “Watch this ugly mf get stuff done,” they said laughing.

That’s good perspective, Theo said laughing. Antonio replied saying everything about life is about perspective and how you frame it.

You choose what you want to see. The choice is yours. This holds true for how we see ourselves but also life circumstances.

In the end, we know all that matters is how you see yourself. What you do with your agency is what matters.

Some people will dislike you because they think you are “ugly.”

“Some people hate you, because you had less and still did more,” as Grant Cardone says.

Some people hate you because they hate themselves.

The “some people” don’t matter, though. They never do. Ugly doesn’t always mean what we think it means.
