BELIEVE IN YOURSELF !! BELIEF IS THE FUNDAMENTAL INGREDIENT TO OBTAIN HAPPINESS. I HAVE WITNESSED SOME OF THE MOST BRILLIANT PEOPLE HAVE PERSONAL DISBELIEF. IS THIS THE UNIVERSE'S WAY OF KEEPING THESE PEOPLE HUMBLE? HOW CAN SOMEONE WITH SUCH UNDEVELOPED TALENTS,LET FAMILY,SPOUSES,SOCIETY OR RELIGION TAINT THEIR PATH? I MYSELF AM GUILTY OF SUCH SINS. ME NOT BELIEVING IN MYSELF CAUSED ME MANY YEARS OF HEARTACHE. AND TRUST ME WHEN I TELL YOU; I SURVIVED A SOUL CRUSHING SITUATION THAT I REVEALED IN MY UPCOMING BOOK. EVEN WITH ME WRITING,I HAD DISBELIEF. I STILL HAVE DISBELIEF IN MY CAPABILITIES. WHAT WOULD I DO IF I DIDN'T HAVE A SUPPORTIVE FAMILY? ONLY GOD KNOWS!! THE CREATOR PUTS PEOPLE IN OUR LIVES TO HELP US REACH THE NEXT SPIRITUAL LEVEL. SOME ARE GOOD,SOME ARE BAD. THE BAD ONES ARE MUCH NEEDED SO THAT WE KNOW WE CAN OVERCOME !!!. WE LEARN WHEN WE SURVIVE,THAT GOD IS INDEED REAL!!! JUST YOU READING THIS,I'M HOPING WILL HELP YOU MAKE A POSITIVE CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE. SO THAT YOU MAY BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!! TAKE A CHANCE AND LET GO OF FEAR FOR ONCE!! BY GOD,MAY MY WORDS EMPOWER YOU!! MAY THIS POST GUIDE YOU TO UNLOCK THE GIFTS WITHIN AND FIND JOY ANEW BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN YOU!!! I HAVE POSTED ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS BY MARIAH CAREY. PLEASE CHECK IT OUT,BLESSINGS. "THE EASIEST THING OF ALL IS TO DECEIVE ONE'S SELF;FOR WHAT A MAN WISHES HE GENERALLY BELIEVES TO BE TRUE"- DEMOSTHENES
IN ORDER TO OBTAIN HEAVEN ON EARTH,WE EACH MUST BECOME AS GOD.(WE MUST BE GODLY IN ACTION AND NOT IN RITUAL,WHAT GOOD IS IT TO PRAY 200 TIMES A DAY BUT HAVE AN UNPURE HEART?)
ENGLISHTHE MOMENT WE LACK EMPATHY,COMPASSION AND THE DESIRE FOR JUSTICE IS THE MOMENT WE CEASE BEING HUMAN!! SPANISHEL MOMENTO EN QUE NOS FALTA COMPASION,EMPATIA Y DESEO DE JUSTICA ES EL MOMENTO QUE DEJAMOS DE SER HUMANOS!!! GHETTO,LOLDA TYME YOU STOP CARING BOUT A MAUFUCKER, IS DA TYME YO ASS DON'T BE BOUT SHIT
I BLAME ME,I BLAME ME FOR FALLING IN LOVE WITH HE. I SHOULD HAVE NOT ALLOWED MYSELF TO LOVE. I SHOULD HAVE BUILT A WALL EVER SO TALL,TO BLOCK MY EMOTION FLOW.I SHOULD HAVE NOT BEEN VULNERABLE IN HIS PRESENCE. I SHOULD HAVE NOT SUCCUMB TO HIS BEAUTIFUL EFFERVESCE. DREAMING,HOPING THAT ONE DAY WE WOULD COALESCE,AS LOVERS-THE PATH LAID. DEAR GOD,HOW WILL I EVER UNDO THIS MESS? - THAT I MADE. I SHOULD HAVE NOT ALLOWED MYSELF TO FEEL,INTERTWINE,EMBRACE,SOAK IN HIS VIBE. I SHOULD HAVE NOT ALLOWED HIM TO MAKE ME FEEL ALIVE. DECODING THIS ESOTERIC MYSTERY-I BLAME ME FOR FALLING IN LOVE WITH HE. SPEAKING OF THE POWER OF MUSIC THE OTHER DAY . I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE SYMBOLISM IN MUSIC OR SHALL I SAY LYRICS. WHEN WE SING A SONG WE HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING WHAT THE ARTIST WAS REALLY THINKING WHEN THEY WROTE THE SONG. OR THE ESOTERIC MEANING OF WHAT THEY WROTE. SURE WE INTERPRET IT IN A WAY THAT'S LOGICAL TO US, IN A WAY THAT RELATES TO US.PUTTING OUR OWN SPIN ON IT, BUT ALOOF TO ITS TRUE MEANING. PRIME EXAMPLE...WHEN I WAS A CHILD THERE WAS THIS BAND BY THE NAME OF QUEEN. HEARING THE SONG "ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST" PLAYED REPEATEDLY ON THE RADIO,IT WAS LATER EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THIS WAS AN ANTI-WAR SONG. OKAY,I GOT IT!! NEXT I HEAR A SONG BY THE SAME BAND ENTITLED "BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY". I'M SURE THAT IF YOU WERE BORN IN THE LATE 70'S AND WEREN'T LIVING UNDER A ROCK,YOU'VE HEARD OF THIS SONG,LOL. JUST KIDDING,IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD THIS SONG THEN MAYBE YOU WERE RAISED AMISH!! YOU KNOW WHAT, I'LL JUST POST THE VIDEO BELOW SO YOU CAN NOW HEAR THIS SONG. ANYWHO- I MYSELF LIKED THE SONG A GREAT DEAL,YES, I'M A BIT OF A ROCKER!! BUT I NEVER KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE SONG MEANT. I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY FREDDIE MERCURY WOULD SING ABOUT SHOOTING A MAN IN THE HEAD. I WAS PRETTY SURE HE WASN'T A MURDERER,SO I JUST ROLLED WITH THE AWESOME GUITAR RIFFS!! BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL SOME YEARS LATER THAT I FOUND OUT FROM A GAY MALE FRIEND WHAT THE SONG REALLY MEANT!! WHEN I GOT OLDER,I FOUND OUT THAT FREDDIE MERCURY DIED FROM AIDS. AND AS A YOUNGSTER, I HEARD THAT HE WAS GAY. ALTHOUGH AT THAT YOUNG AGE I HAD NO REAL IDEA OF WHAT GAY REALLY MEANT. AND I DARED NOT ASK. I DARE NOT UTTER THE WORD GAY AS A YOUTH. I WAS TAUGHT BY MY ELDERS THAT IT WAS A BAD WORD. NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT,I WONDER DID ME BEING FORBIDDEN TO ACKNOWLEDGE GAY PEOPLE GROWING UP,LEAD ME TO BE ATTRACTED TO GAY MEN. HOLD ON- NOT SEXUALLY!!,BUT AS FRIENDS. GAY MEN HAVE A WAY OF SAYING THE FUNNIEST,REAL SHIT. (EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE,BUT IT WOULDN'T SOUND THE SAME IF I SAID STUFF,PHRASES,CLICHES).THEY BITE THEIR TONGUE FOR NO ONE,AND I RESPECT THEIR CAJUNAS!! I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ATTRACTED TO ENIGMAS. AND GAY MEN TO ME, ARE THE EMBODIMENT OF AN ENIGMA!! ANYWAY AS A FRIEND AND I MANY,MANY,MANY YEARS AGO DISCUSSED MUSIC(HOLD ON,I AIN'T THAT OLD.MAYBE I SHOULD TAKE BOUT TWO OF THOSE MANY'S BACK!!,LOL) YES I AM ANIMATED THIS WAY,EVEN IN 3D. MY POINT-MY FRIEND EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THIS SONG WAS ABOUT FREDDIE MERCURY(THE LEAD SINGER) CONTRACTING AIDS,GIVING IT TO ANOTHER MAN AND ACCEPTING HIS FATE OF ULTIMATE DEATH. AND THE BELIEF THAT HE WAS GOING TO HELL FOR BEING HOMOSEXUAL. HE ACTUALLY GREW UP IN A RELIGIOUS FAMILY. SOMETIMES RELIGION BACKFIRES!! OR SHALL I SAY BEING TOO CONTROLLING DOES!! BUT THAT'S ANOTHER DAY,ANOTHER POST. TAKE A LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. I WELCOME ALL COMMENTS!! HELLO MY DEAR FRIENDS,I UNDERSTAND THAT MY BLOG ON MARRIAGE MADE SOME PEOPLE UNCOMFORTABLE.I APOLOGIZE TO ALL THAT FELT THIS WAY AS I WAS ONLY VOICING MY HUMBLE OPINION.YES,TRUE LOVE IS COMPLICATED. YES,MARRIAGE IN GENERAL IS COMPLICATED. WELL,LIFE IN GENERAL IS COMPLICATED BUT WE SHOULD RELISH EVERY SECOND OF IT!! ANGER,PAIN,TEARS AND ALL!! BUT ANYHOW,TO REDRESS MY PREVIOUS REPEL,I'VE POSTED A VIDEO FROM YOUTUBE TO KIND OF HELP GUIDE THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR ANSWERS IN THEIR CURRENT RELATIONSHIP. THIS MAY OR MAY NOT BE EXACT SCIENCE BUT I THINK ITS A START!!! ENJOY AND FEEL FREE TO LEAVE COMMENTS ON MY POST. I AM GRATEFUL FOR EVERY COMMENT I RECEIVE. THANK YOU ALL <3 & XO
AHH,THE POWER OF MUSIC. WHAT IS IT ABOUT MUSIC THAT IS SO POWERFUL? SHOULD MUSICIANS BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR LYRICS? I THINK TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION,WE MUST FIRST HAVE A OVERVIEW OF WHAT IS MUSIC? MUSIC IS WHAT THE ANCIENT GREEKS WOULD CLASSIFY AS ETHOS. MUSIC IS WHAT SHAPES AND DEFINES ONES CULTURE. MUSIC IS ALSO ENERGY. MUSIC HAS THE ABILITY TO ALTER OUR MOODS. CAUSING US JOY SHOULD WE BE DEPRESSED, CAUSING US ANGER IF WE NORMALLY WOULD BE PASSIVE. CAUSING US TO BECOME SEXUAL IF WE NORMALLY WOULD BE REPRESSED. ITS NOT BY ACCIDENT THAT STRIPPERS DANCE TO CERTAIN KINDS OF MUSIC!! COULD YOU ENVISION A STRIPPER DANCING TO THIS LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE? IT MOTIVATES US TO BE PATRIOTIC(STAR SPANGLED BANNER),IT EVEN HAS THE ABILITY TO ENCOURAGE US TO BREAK UNIVERSAL LAW AS EVIDENT IN THE INFAMOUS NARCOMUSICA-NARCO-CORRIDOS OF MEXICO. NARCOMUSICA IS A GENRE OF MEXICAN MUSIC THAT GLORIFIES THE ACTIONS OF VARIOUS CARTELS. ONE OF ITS MEGA STARS(JESUS "CHUY"QUINTANILLA)WAS FOUND SLAIN IN TEXAS APRIL 25 OF THIS YEAR. IN RAP,THERE IS AN UNDERGROUND FORM CALLED" GEEK MUSIC". IN THIS FORM VIOLENT ACTS AGAINST SOCIETY ARE SPOKEN OF IN GRUESOME DETAIL TO AMP THE LISTENER TO CARRY OUT HIS "HIT". SOMEWHAT OF A SPIRITUAL PREPARATION FOR HIS OR HER DEMONIC MISDEEDS. IN RELIGION, MUSIC IS VERY INSTRUMENTAL IN CONTROLLING THE MASSES. AS A CHILD,THERE WERE SO MANY TIMES WHERE AFTER THE CHOIR SUNG,PLAYED THE GUITARS,TAMBORINES AND DRUMS,I GAVE UP ALL OF MY CANDY MONEY!! IF I WERE A MILLIONAIRE AT THAT AGE,I WOULD HAVE GIVEN IT ALL TO THE PREACHER,LOL. MUSIC WAS AND IS PLAYED BEFORE BATTLES AND WARS. HISTORICALLY THE TRUMPET WAS PLAYED BEFORE BATTLES IN EVERY WAR FOUGHT ON AMERICAN SOIL. MUSIC HELPS US TO THINK. THATS WHY CLASSICAL MUSIC IS A GENRE FOR INTELLECTUALS BECAUSE IT MAKES US USE OUR MINDS. I DON'T RECALL HOW MANY PROBLEMS I'VE SOLVED WHILE LISTENING TO BEETHOVEN,MY FAVORITE CLASSICAL ARTIST. MUSIC WAS AT THE FRONT OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT,THE CHINESE REVOLUTION,THE INDIAN WARS ETC.. THIS BEING STATED,MUSIC IS ENERGY!! WHY DO YOU THINK THAT A WELL TRAINED OPERA SINGER CAN ACTUALLY BREAK A GLASS WITH A CERTAIN OCTAVE. BECAUSE THIS ENERGY IS TRANSFERED INTO VIBRATION. WE ALL OPERATE ON ENERGY LEVELS.EVER BEEN AROUND A HAPPY PERSON AND YOU IN RETURN FELT HAPPIER JUST BEING IN THEIR COMPANY? AND THEY COULD HAVE NOT EVEN TALKED TO YOU DIRECTLY!! CHAKRAS IS WHAT EASTERN SPIRITUALITY TEACHES US ITS CALLED. I LIKE MUSIC,ALOT. AND I LISTEN TO ALMOST EVERY GENRE. BUT I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ARTIST WHO OPERATE ON THE LOW CHAKRA. SINGING ABOUT THE DEGREGATION OF WOMEN,POISONING THE COMMUNITIES WITH DRUGS AND VIOLENCE,SELLING THE FALLACY THAT THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT OUT THE HOOD IS THROUGH DRUG SELLS. HOW MANY HAVE BEEN LOCKED UP? HOW MANY HAVE BEEN MURDERED? HOW MANY HAVE MURDERED AFTER LISTENING TO THIS MADNESS? DOES THE PROBLEM LIE WITH THE POWER OF MUSIC? ,A POWER SO STRONG THAT IT CAN'T BE CONTAINED? DOES THE PROBLEM LIE IN IGNORANCE OF THE LISTENER? BUT I THEN ASK,HOW CAN THE LISTENER FIGHT THE INVISIBLE? IF WE ARE ENERGY,THEN HOW CAN WE FIGHT AGAINST OURSELVES? SO MUSIC IS ENERGY MANIFEST THROUGH WORDS AND SOUNDWAVES. I GUESS THE REAL QUESTION AND ANSWER IS WITHIN US!! DO WE WANT TO BRING POSITIVE ENERGY TO OURSELVES OR NEGATIVE?
ALRIGHT, I MAY UPSET SOME WOMEN WITH THIS POST TODAY.BUT I FEEL THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I THINK THAT AN ALTERNATIVE VIEW SHOULD BE HEARD. WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT IS THE INSTITUTION OF MARRIAGE.BY ALL MEANS,I AM A TRUE WOMAN.SOME MAY SAY OLD FASHIONED. I BELIEVE IN THE MAN BEING THE LEADER OF THE FAMILY. I BELIEVE THAT A WOMAN SHOULD HONOR HER MAN. I BELIEVE THAT A WOMAN SHOULD COOK FOR HIM. TAKE TIME TO TALK TO HIM,GIVE HIM MASSAGES OR WHATEVER TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH SHE LOVES AND RESPECTS HIM. AND DON'T GET ME WRONG,THIS SHOULD DONE BY THE MAN FOR HIS WOMAN ASWELL!! BUT WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH SOME WOMEN TRYING TO PRESSURE A MAN INTO MARRIAGE? I UNDERSTAND SOME WOMEN MAY SAY"WHY SHOULD I CONTINUE TO BE WITH HIM IF HE DOESN'T MARRY ME"? AND I GET THAT.I UNDERSTAND HOW ONE MAY FEEL. BUT SHOULD WE PRESSURE A MAN TO MARRY IF HE DOESN'T WANT TO? HOW HAPPY WOULD THE TWO REALLY BE? SOME WOMEN ARE SO IN LOVE WITH THE IDEA OF BEING MARRIED THAT THEY COMPLETELY MISS THE OBJECTIVE. MARRIAGE IS A PARTNERSHIP BASED ON LOVE!! NOT ABOUT THE BIGGEST DIAMOND. NOT ABOUT THE MOST EXPENSIVE GOWN.NOT ABOUT HAVING THE MOST EXPENSIVE CATERER,FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS OR HONEYMOON. I HAVE WITNESSED WOMEN COMING OUT OF BRIDAL SHOPS WITH THE MOST DISTURBED LOOK ON THEIR FACES.STRESSING ABOUT THE BIG DAY.SAVING UP FOR YEARS, MAXING CREDIT CARDS,WORKING OVERTIME. INVITING EACH AND EVERY FRIEND,RELATIVE AND ENEMY,LOL,TO THEIR WEDDING. ALL IN THE NAME OF SHOWING OFF. FEELING SUPERIOR FOR A DAY!! THE IRONY OF IT ALL IS THAT OVER 50% OF THESE MARRIAGES END IN DIVORCE. BITTER ONES!! AND THEN THERE ARE THE ONES,WOMEN AND MEN ALIKE,WHO STAY STUCK IN UNHAPPY MARRIAGES. FEARFUL OF ALL THEY COULD LOSE SHOULD THEY DIVORCE THEIR FORMER SWEETHEART!! SO THEY SPEND THEIR DAYS PASSING THE TIME BY DRINKING,COUNTING THE STARS,WATCHING THE GRASS GROW,TAKING THE LONG ROUTE HOME,LOL.GET MY POINT? BASICALLY DOING WHATEVER TO BE AS FAR AWAY FROM THIS CURRENT THORN IN THE SIDE!! AND STILL SAVE FACE!! SAVE FACE FROM WHO I ASK? SOME SAY THAT "WELL, I MADE A VOW TO GOD". SOME SAY THAT" GOD PUT US TOGETHER". AND I SAY NO! NO,YOU MADE A VOW TO THIS MAN OR WOMAN!! NO,GOD DIDN'T PUT YOU WITH THIS PERSON. YOU PUT YOU WITH THIS PERSON. SOME PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES IN LIFE AND THEN BLAME THEM ON GOD. SHOULD MORTAL LAW BE INJECTED INTO LOVE? ISN'T TRUE LOVE UNDYING? SHOULD WE HAVE TO FIGHT IF WE DECIDE TO PART WAYS? SHOULD THE FEAR OF MAN OR WOMAN DICTATE OUR HAPPINESS? I BELIEVE IN MARRIAGE,BUT IT SHOULD BE A MUTUAL AGREEMENT.IT SHOULD BE PURELY BASED ON LOVE!!! IN THE FUTURE I WILL BE MARRIED. AND WHEN I AM, IT WILL BE A SIMPLE CEREMONY. NOTHING FLASHY,NOTHING EXPENSIVE. NO MATTER HOW SUCCESSFUL I OR MY LOVE MAY BE!! I KNOW THAT MARRIAGE IS BASED ON COMMITMENT AND HOPEFULLY I WILL FIND A MAN(IN THE NEAR FUTURE), SPECIAL ENOUGH TO MAKE MY HEART AND MIND CONNECT WITH HIS ON A LEVEL SO DEEP THAT I WANT TO MARRY HIM. I ALSO KNOW THAT WE SHOULD TAKE OUR TIME TO THINK CLEARLY AND THROUGHLY ABOUT WHO WE ARE TO MARRY. WILL THIS PERSON LOVE YOU THROUGH GOOD AND BAD,THICK AND THIN? WILL THIS PERSON NOT ABANDON YOU SHOULD YOU BECOME ILL? WILL THIS PERSON BE SUPPORTIVE IN YOU PURSUING YOUR ASPIRATIONS? IS THIS PERSON IN LOVE WITH YOU OR IN LOVE WITH THE IDEA OF MARRIAGE?
HELLO MY DEAR FRIENDS,I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE TOUCHY,SOMEWHAT TABOO SUBJECT OF,HOLD ON YOU'RE READY-RACE!! THIS SUBJECT MANY SEEM TO FLEE FROM. AND I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY. I BELIEVE WE AS A WHOLE RUN FROM THE MATTER BECAUSE NONE OF US TRULY UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS!! WE ALLOW CULTURE AND NATIONALITY TO DICTATE HOW WE PERCEIVE WHO WE ARE. I ASK MYSELF QUESTIONS OFTEN. IF A WOMAN AND MAN OF AFRICAN OR EUROPEAN DESCENT HAVE A CHILD IN LET'S SAY CHINA. DOES THAT MAKE THE CHILD CHINESE? IF THAT THOSE SAME COUPLES HAVE A CHILD IN MEXICO IS THAT CHILD MEXICAN? WELL,YES AND NO!! IF THAT MAKES ANY SENSE. GENETICALLY THEY AREN'T,BY NATIONALITY THEY ARE!! SO WHAT IS A PERSON WHO IS SRI LANKAN,PAKISTANI OR BANGLADESHI. ARE THEY INDIAN(CENTRAL ASIAN) OR NOT. AND WHAT DO YOU CALL A PUERTO RICAN WHO HAS AFRICAN,SPANISH AND TAINO INDIAN ANCESTRY? WHAT DO YOU CALL A PERSON WHO HAS THE SAME RACIAL MAKE- UP BUT DOESN'T HAIL FROM THE ISLANDS? WHAT DO YOU CALL AN AMERICAN OF SOME AFRICAN ANCESTRY WHO HAS 4 OR 5 OTHER ANCESTRIES? WHAT DO YOU CALL AN AMERICAN WITH EUROPEAN ANCESTRY WHO ALSO HAS THIS SAME GENETIC COMPOSITION OF 4 PLUS RACES? I MYSELF HAVE A MULTI-RACIAL BACKGROUND AND IT REALLY SHOWS IN MY CHILDREN. MY OLDEST DAUGHTER ,WHO IS ACTUALLY MAYBE A SHADE OR SO DARKER THAN ME,HAS BEEN MISTAKEN FOR LATINA SOOO MANY TIMES!! SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE COME TO HER SPEAKING SPANISH ASSUMING THAT SHE KNOWS NO ENGLISH,LOL.SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE ASKED" WHAT RACE ARE YOU,I KNOW YOU'RE NOT BLACK"? "NOT BLACK" I ASK HER,"IF YOU'RE NOT BLACK THEN WHAT IS"? AND WITH MY YOUNGEST,HER CLASSMATES ASSUME THAT SHE'S DIRECTLY MIXED WITH ASIAN!! AND MIND YOU ALL OF MY CHILDREN HAVE THE SAME FATHER!! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN TWO MUTTS REPRODUCE!!,LOL. SO NOW I ASK WHAT IS BLACK? WHAT IS WHITE? NOT LONG AGO IN THIS COUNTRY,AMERICA, WHEN SOMEONE HAD ONE DROP OF AFRICAN BLOOD THEY WERE CLASSIFIED AS-YOU GOT IT-BLACK!! AND THIS LAW STILL HAS NOT BEEN CHANGED!! SO IF THIS LAW IS TO BE APPLIED IN MODERN DAY THEN ABOUT 90% OF THE AMERICAN POPULATION WOULD BE CONSIDERED BLACK!! WHITE FOLKS INCLUDED!!,LOL. HAVE WE BROUGHT INTO THE STEREOTYPICAL VIEW ON WHAT WHITE OR BLACK IS SUPPOSE TO LOOK LIKE? HAVE WE LET GEO-POLITICS CHANGE HOW WE INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER BASED ON "WHAT WE LOOK LIKE"? SO DO YOU IDENTIFY WITH ONLY ONE OF YOUR RACES? AND NOT ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR OTHER ANCESTRIES. OR DO YOU REALLY TAKE THE TIME TO TELL SOMEONE YOUR MIX? WHAT DO YOU CHECK WHEN YOU COMPLETE A CENSUS? WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE NOT QUITE ACCEPTED BY THE RACE YOU IDENTIFY WITH,BUT YOU MOST CERTAINLY CAN'T SOLELY INDENTIFY WITH THE OTHERS? SHHH,IT'S A VERY LONELY WORLD!! ALL THIS IS ACTUALLY STARTING TO GIVE ME A HEADACHE!! AFTER ALL MY THOUGHTS AND QUESTIONING,I'VE COME TO THIS HYPOTHESIS,AND IT'S SIMPLE-WE PUT TO MUCH DAMN IMPORTANCE ON RACE!!! THERE IS NO ONE PURE RACE!! WE'RE ALL MUTTS,HYBRIDS,MIXED OR HOW EVER YOU WANT TO PHRASE IT!! A LONG TIME AGO IN A DISTANT LAND CALLED AFRICA,MORE SPECIFICALLY,THE LAND OF PUNT,LOCATED IN EAST AFRICA. A LITTLE BLACK WOMAN AND A LITTLE BLACK MAN GAVE BIRTH TO MODERN MAN,ALL MEN AND WOMEN (DON'T WORRY I DIDN'T FORGET YOU SISTERS,LOL) OF EACH TRIBE,LAND,RACE. SO WHETHER WE ACCEPT IT OR NOT,WE ALL HAVE AFRICAN ROOTS!! POLITICS IS WHAT DIVIDES US! JUST AS THERE ARE MANY COLORS IN NATURE,BUT NOT ONE LIFE FORM IS BETTER THAN THE NEXT !!! THIS IS GOD'S DIVINE ORDER. ESSENTIALLY IT'S JUST LAND AND WE'RE JUST HUE-MAN!! LEAVE THE IDEA OF RACE TO THOSE WHO WISH TO EXPLOIT AND CAPITOLIZE ON RACIAL DIVISION.BUT KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE AND NEVER LOSE FOCUS ON WHO WE ALL ARE-GOD'S CHILDREN!!

"I'm an avid student of life, love, and spirit. My blog isn't about external beauty per se, clothes, fashion, make-up,or even politics. No none of these things!! The articles that I write come from my heart and are about something simple yet complex, rugged yet fragile, dark yet light. Something beautiful yet at times can be ugly. I write about something that all reading this shouldn't take for granted. Life!! Something everlasting yet fleeting." - Shakira Z. Ch'i Peace Always |
