revealed by time
A breath of fresh air soothes the mind, body, and soul. If God breathes life into being, I guess it is almost "to be or not to be" in a sense. Everyone has a fever and a burning inside that remains unsettled by what is not understood. To calm an ocean after a storm the tide must rest and the sun must break. Rest is apart of life and is the less understood, but most critical part of life. Books always have a beginning with a cause and an ending with revelation. I believe God could have ended the Bible with a bang or a mystery, but ended with a beginning (Revelation). Life should be more clear if we know what keeps us in peace. Most famous musicians were settled and fulfilled when they were able to play an instrument or sing a song. In effect people were able to connect with the artist, because they could level with them and relate on an realistic approach that was spiritual. Planes, computers, a trip on the moon wasn't money driven or for notarity. It began with a curiousity and ended with what revealed the most darkest, simplest, and complex time into being. If the universe was centered around the world how much effect might the sun have. So the sun has its purpose and our time is centered around it. So we can't live self centered, but redeemed by what is in us and what breathes and gives our life purpose. If it is music, it breathes through one to redeem others in a way that is of purpose. Purpose is peace, Life is fulfulling, and the Redemption is revelation.

what is in it for me?
|
What is in it for me? This is an obvious, but critical statement prompted by our deeds. If anyone were to look at life being dead they would see it the same way we see things when everything is obvious. Everyone wants to be someone even if it cost their life. Being a product of life we buy into conceptions of individual living that controls the way we live through whatever means possible that conflicts our true nature. You could replant a tree into the ground in a place that is convient to you and easy to the eye. Naturally the tree is there and is in production, on the other end the tree is not in its rightful place (environmentalist would agree). The tree roots are disconnected and the only way to find its roots is to find its inhabited place on this earth. So what would happen is the tree has less effect by its disconnection and now has to conform to its new setting. We look at the modern age of information which is the media, that comes in many forms by way of press rather digitally or televised. Yes, people want some sort of resolution in life, something to stand for. Pop culture or "land of la la" is a habitation, because mentally we live out more than physically. Everything we rationalize and what comes into form is out of our mind or own thinking. So when we see this popularity some people want to be part of this. One reason is familiarity and acceptance by what is made the norm of society. Cars, clothes, sex, pleasure, and freedom in the terms of insanity from fantasy. This is what most people want, so what is the cost? The hard media has made it clear in particular young black men and women in urban society. Vacate living standards, living acceptantly and not exceptionally will get you far. This has happened directly after what was beginning to be a progressive movement was stopped. What will reverse the minds of negros back into the society of being insufficeint to accepting irrational living. Also by feeding them crumbs into their society of selection out of those who will deceptively be the spokes people for the masses of black dissatisfied. Our nature is pure and not hostile, intelligent and not ignorant. What will have to happen is blacks being reawaken out of their land of desolation into a land of reemergence. We are black with roots in Africa, this is our identity. So we shouldn't walk around lost trying to identify with something we are not. When this happens, see how your aggressor reacts. Which you probably after all these years didn't know you had.

looking for change
When will the government, the people who are responsible for our society and well being remember that there are no avenues for many Black and lower class Americans. There is no hope to where I believe people who have experienced poverty their whole life and also have a history of no success or signs of change in their lives. I myself have been a victim of this trap of signs of no success but a possible of potential in my own life as well. My setbacks are even more difficult to deal with other than the fact that I am one who has grown up in a poor environment and have experienced more than enough of pain. Yes, I know that I can change things, and believe me I will, but the majority of people in my situation can't see things the same way because they are caught up in a cycle that brings them back to a life of poverty mentally and physically because of their history. This in my opinion can only be fixed by the government and the solution should begin with the government. The same way if you take a mouse and put him in to an experiment in a cage, and it is in the cage majority of its time it is not going to do any thing that is out of its reach, it cant do or even be apart of any thing that is not apart of its environment. With this said, resources are a vital part to living a productive life, why hasn't this been done for the minority in this country especially in a time when our leaders are running for office.

This is Africa
|
Suffering has called us to a calling beyond our means. Whether we are silent or hold peace, our situation only evolves into a worse circumstance that we must abide by. Is hope a fantasy, nightmare, or reality? This can only be answered by the dream or legacy we hold in our hearts. Our hearts are what we make decisions by not our actions. Anything our heart beats for is the cause of what we may dream, rationalize, or have given up on. We can begin to look at the many different shades or veils that cover and disquise the true barrings of a society. Poverty, Immorality, Wickedness, and even in these areas of America we call the slums or the have nots, there is a spirit that remains fostered not by evil, but the evils of exploitation. Many of these businesses claim to be for opportunity of the working class Americans. But there remains in these communities a game of real life monopoly in which we the working class Americans are the participants. Why and How? Simple, every dollar we make in our blue collar jobs goes back into the ones keeping us oppressed. To think of 10 to 20 fast food chains in one area, and then low quality department and grocery stores, and even your neighborhood drug store that supports the movement of social degradation posed upon the youth to where by the time they are 14 or 15 they have easy access to a liquor mart. Why this should matter is because it is only happening because most people are never prepared for this because we are born into it. We know nothing but government handouts and then injected by the poise of a modern class structure that has worked for centuries now. This is the reason for the season in a sense. We're sick, but can't afford to see a doctor. We're poor, so we take the matter in our own hands unfortunately by illegal gain. We're dead mentally because we were never given a mind of our own or no one payed mind to even care so they lock us up. Is this a declining or growing cycle or is it just part of life. Take time to notice the poor man whose lost his mind as you pass to go to work and lacky that you label and judge as you pass by the city or even zones that you wouldn't cross. Whether we like it or not they have not, not cause their instability but because of the world's lack of concern and to cast them out into the pitts and think that just because of the success whomever may acquire that these people are the pillars of our society. Not only do we do the work that certain Americans are just to good to do, we also remind people of high stature that they are truly blessed and if so how would God being Jesus, if he were to come today be embraced. If high he would of probably never came down to die for us all, not individually, but equally.
