Famous Dushawn Banks Quotes

“When I asked to get closer to God, I got closer to the woman. I said, “God I don’t want any amount of success if it doesn’t get me closer to you.” When I changed the way that I walked and talked, many people abandoned me; but right there was the woman. She supported every step of my growth. When I asked to get closer to God, I got closer to you. It was you that challenged me to be a great man. It was you that taught me how to love. It was you that gave me a story. It was you that helped me find my purpose. Though we have been through ups-and-downs, no amount of pain could make me ever stop loving you. As a writer, I’ve had people misunderstand my bad description of a woman. Yes, a woman isn’t singular. She is all that I described. What many fail to realize is that when you can love someone beyond the bad times, that shows a deeper level of love. I love you to that level. I hope that I gave you a million smiles for every one time that I made you frown. Thank you, for loving me. Thank you, for trusting me. Thank you, for believing in me. Thank you, for having faith in me. Thank you, for forgiving me. Thank you, for teaching me. Thank you, for supporting me. When I was younger, I didn’t understand why I’ve been surrounded by women my whole life. Now, as a man, I see where that experience helped me with success in relationships. The pillow of love from the women in my life made life easy.”

“Real love is reassuring.Real love is having the comfort of knowing that in your darkest hour someone will love you the same. I was away from real love for some time and became dependent on self-love to keep me sane. It wasn't until real love came back around that I noticed that it was missing. It was that family love that, even though I said I was okay, knew what I needed all off of intuition. I've had people love me in my success and turn their backs on me in my momentary failures. I've worked very hard in order to impress the social standards and did all of this just for my family to still love me for me. When society asks, "How are you doing?", they usually mean your accomplishments. When real love asks, "How are you doing?", they usually mean your soul. Real love is addictive. I hope you find it. Love is forever.”

“Different levels of growth are inevitable. Love and attachment are also inevitable. Therefore, conflict and heartbreak are inevitable as well. We all know that the world’s creations are destined for different heights so some will reach their limit of growth before others. We express our love, attachment, and heartbreak in different ways so on your journey you may reach conflict. At this point always understand that it is just a part of the process of evolution. We ask for one, but we can’t have it without the other.”
