Innocence
I thought what we had was real? NO ONE can explain the feelings that I feel....I was kiSSed, liCKed, and DISmiissed.
How can what i thought was love lead to this?
Baby my love was true. I never knew that hurt and pain’s definition would be you., and you say you was hurt 2?
Please!
I’m not as stupid as you think.
Did you ever think of me? while u were out doin what u do best?
Jumping into your ex’s bed?
Jumping into your ex’s bed?
I REALIZED I was too good for you.
Even though love tried to stop me,
I REALIZED I had to go.
I REALIZED we were through.
Dedicated to all the loves of my life.....

Race and Politics; visited upon the Black Church; Is First Amendment in question....
I posted the Drum Major Instinct speech on the Obama08Campaign after the Senator from Illinois made the remarkable speech on Race, only problem is that the Senator forgot to put more emphasis on what lead up to a decision to come to Christ, with the Shepard being Dr./Reverend Jeremiah Wright.

This not the focal point of this blogger, ah but it raises a question on two fronts.. How good is his judgment, if he can opine not to adhere the same doctrine, but come under the covering of this urban Minister of the Gospel. Raises the question, how far have we really come when this becomes the obsession of the mainstream media a 10.7 sec. soundbite of
Dr. Wright speaking about what his experience has been and the prophetic revelation of what has come upon us as a Nation. Not just black people or the black community, because we all have been desolate and focused on private issues to be bothered with this mess! We all caught up in paying high debt, work, family issues.. Stuff that hits us directly to even care about how serious this is. They actually want a black man to denounce all he believes about this man as a person in order to gain approval of the vast majority. Dismissing his call for unity from all races to whom he spoke, even the conservatives raved about how "Historic, Magnificent, even "Brilliant," not since, ever have we heard... and yet, the 1st Amendment attacked and mainstream media outlets have created Dr. Wright whose a hero in the black community and transformed his image into a Monster of sorts..
As a community we have;
Dismissed this incident as ignorance and misunderstanding, but GOD! I suggest we all keep up on current affairs of state here and abroad from now on out, crucial times in our economy. Oil is soaring and everything else is inflating like the ripple effect. If you are concerned as I, then get involved on a local level, or just do what I've done. Write send it to your friends, family, and help in some way to give back. Now is the time to make it plain about where you stand in the scheme of things.. Families have to unite if we can't as a nation to get facts on scholarships for our children, this proposed health care plan these candidates are putting forth. We need to mobilize and get involved in what ever side you fall on be it Independent, or the big Two! It's really our responsibilities to ensure that our children's future is not threatened by research cut out the waste and lets invest in stocks, bonds, Cd's.. not music!Kramer of CNBC's Kudlow and Kramer, recently commented around holiday's how we waste $$ as the average consumer (any race), that we should reconsider buying our children, sneakers [Nike], high priced toys like the X-boxes, and Play stations - but purchase the child a gift that pays dividends [in their name] by investing those $$ in the stock that produces those items - the parent company that produces those i.e., Mattel, Hasbro, etc.., whatever brand name gifts you purchase that cost hundreds of dollars it could pay for a few shares of stock or T Bonds trust account! By the time that stock matures, or TBonds you purchased for that child matures with interest until 17 or 18 years of age it shows dividends by the time college approaches; its a head start no loans needed.. Too many of our children walk across the stage into debt as soon as they graduate from college. It also has tax advantages, shelters...
I mean, we all have a role to play, anything worthwhile is definitely worth the struggle.. How else you gonna appreciate success. I'm tired of the black community not realizing why we
always caught up in these recessions or famines! (We never store up during the 7 years of plenty.... just, being sarcastic now!)
We're at a point in history where we all must wake up and pay attention to all that's going on, Marvin Gaye wrote in "What's Going On", a soulful opera melody in 1969 of a prophetic end we approach. I use to believe that "Save the Children" was directed at my generation from those wildly wonderful days of bliss and drugs; total ignorance during the 70's.... Well, I've lived long enough to understand that it was by no means directed at those times [70's], no it speaks to the right now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
More amazing to me was when I read Dr. King's sermon for the third time it struck me how prophetic he was, and probably why he died. For he had found God's purpose for his life and knew clearly what GOD wanted him to do, and all that was left was just to walk it out... His dream, vision has evolved 40 years later we have progressed, but at what cost? When we got here over 400 years ago most Black people were stripped of any acknowledgment of name, tribe, and native languages.
All was lost, most of my relatives don't
know what part of Africa we came from and really don't wanna know.. Although, I plan to visit the continent soon, my American family tree is over 200 years old.
Well, this candidate happens to be a man of color; multiracial but his dad is Kenyan not African American it's a difference. His American experience was in Kansas the state not Kansas City, MO.. [remember Dorothy, click your heels three times off to see the Wizard, Dorothy], well Senator Obama's was from a White middle class perspective, his maternal roots raised him. But, in order for him to get elected he is expected to denounce his church~family heritage in the African American Church, where many people have attended from all walks of life. Your church is supposed to be personal, but again... I'm using my blogger to express it put it out in cyberspace maybe somebody can explain how he can even relate to the experience of what Jeremiah Wright said?
Well, it was probably more entertaining listening to him rant if you couldn't relate to the experience, the black church has always been the focal point of the plight of all Africans during slavery up until this current 21st century. It's a refuge and a teacher, we as a community have felt hatred, and expressed it openly. But, we always open the dialog and accept the blow back, Dr. King died at 39 years old I was eight years old. Today, I'm 47 years old so I remember a time when it wasn't so nice and we didn't have our own beauty products in Grocery stores. Just Lilt.. and Clairol. C'mon we need to really visit this issue, it's important I personally can't say I object to all Dr. Wright had to say, hell, if you watched the Million Man March it's all about frustration not hate. A dismayed and disillusioned culture of children. The biggest consumers in the USA economy, and the most loyal voting block in the Nation no matter whose party you vote with.
Switching signals, the weather conditions across the Nation all over the Midwest Region of this country and Deep South, North, and West Coast fires have drastically caused harm to hundreds of thousands of families; economy issues, i.e., gas, food, even entertainment.. A world in distress, and we using plastic and payday loans to justify the means. We failing to see the direction we are heading, and money matters... They giving us money borrowed from Skiddish bank to Stim-ul-us, [stimulate us]. We not paying attention because we have all become victim to what Dr. King preached February 8, 1968 at Ebenezer, the Drum Major Instinct.......
Well, I'm included in that statistic, but the issue is who is fit to lead, are we really a nation who follows GOD. Do we trust Him?
My assessment is that mother nature is about the best evidence of a GOD, and if the current weather and climactic changes on Earth is any proof of God's will and his love for us. HIS Grace abounds, but disasters are really occurring more frequently here and other parts of the world. I've been watching this Primary Election08, seems as if every time there's been a Primary more Natural weather disasters' since all of this begun. I mean Jesus said his word that they would know HIM and thanks to satellite TV, all of the Earth, nation to nation.
The Gospel was discussed all around the world for the past 3 weeks if you been watching that same soundbite over, and over, and again. Listen to the words and read New Testament, Ephesians- Revelation, you got time. Read or google Dr. Kings speeches in those last few months of his life, he was very adamant about the war, and said some controversial things, about as scary as Jeremiah Wright but without all the anger... and, If you believe John was on the isle of Patmos when those things were revealed as he witnessed in the last Book of the New Testament. Even if you choose not to believe in the written word. Pay attention and research. the year 2012... http://www.viewzone.com/endtime.html
If I can help somebody as I pass along,If I can cheer somebody with a word or song,If I can show somebody he's traveling wrong,Then my living will not be in vain.If I can do my duty as a Christian ought,If I can bring salvation to a world once wrought,If I can spread the message as the master taught,Then my living will not be in vain.
We in some trying times, stay prayed up, loved up, and please do unto others as you would have them do unto you!
THANKS FOR SHARING
