Just A thought.....

One of my friends wrote this blog on facebook,thought it was interesting and I would share it with the bloggger world......

Why Have We Forgotten!?As I sit here and peck away at yet another thought that I had, I am aware of the fact that my words often echo out into the vastness of cyber-space and I may ever know who it is that I may touch or effect. That's not what this thought is about though. The essence of this thought rests on the realization that as a people we have forgotten the struggles of our past, lavished ourselves in the pleasures of today and miss the fact that if we are not careful we will reap the dead harvest of what we sow today and that is nothing. The displays of willful ignorance sends chills down my spine. Both spiritual and mental, we have grown lazy and it affect our physical and financial lives. The battle begins in the mind, echoes in the soul and is made manifest in the hands and actions of men. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but might through God for the pulling down of strongholds... We wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principlalities, spirits, powers and rulers in high places... Our battles stem from our past. Our battles dominate our present condition and conditioning. Our battles will conquer us in the future if we don't fight back. Sadly... I look about and see so few soldiers and so many battles to fight. No one feels it necessary any longer. No passion... No fury. So... To answer the question, why have we forgotten... We have forgotten, not because we are not blessed or we struggle and it seems for not; we have forgotten because we are so blessed and it was on the backs of those that came before us and not because of our blood, sweat and tears. We have traded freedom and it's great commission to continue to fight for all things material. We have traded the memories of our forefathers for the mirage of material gain, pop-culture movements and assumptions of peace. Wake up... We have been to the moutain top... We have surveyed the land... Now it's time to take what our forefathers meant for us to have... Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.




One Final Thought



We live in a time when Mc Donald`s, Wendy`s, Coca Cola and other big names in industry have started putting rap and African American centered themes into thier maketing. Why? Because we spend more money than any other race in America! Think about that. We only make up 12% percent of the population. No wonder we don`t have anything, we keep giving it away! It`s funny to see Arabs on T.V. trying to sell jewely using this African American marketing strategy, trying to talk like us, and yet can barely speak any English anyway. To put it in theoretic terms... They have learned to sell us, to us, better than us, because we don`t know us.

A midlife breakdown just a little early

OK i know everyone has heard or seen what Brittany spears has done to herself. Many people have breakdowns in life after they have been thru a lot of stuff. Even after my mom died I was not myself and had sort of a breakdown. And i cut my hair off but not to the lengths that Brit did. Brittany is going to thru some thangs,hopefully it's not because of that rapper ex-husband of hers(thank god she had him sign a prenup. But I mean take a look at it. And then she goes back and puts a wig on because she can't believe what she has done???Brittany get some help!!!

So what about those A.K.A's or not......

OK like a lot of college students I am a member on face book. It is basically a networking system where you can interact with people that go to your college or other colleges and people that you went to high school with. Now of course they have opened it up to everyone it is not as "exclusive" as it use to be.

Anyway there was this bulletin posted about a week ago that was very disturbing to me. These young men "came out " as AKA's at a probate that by the looks of the pictures no one was at except for the person taking the pictures. I myself am not Greek but I am an Eastern Star and I know how hard it is to gain letters and how it would make me feel to see someone posing in my sacred organization colors and letters and they did not work for them. It is your choice to act how you want in life and you shouldn't try to take on something that one: you don't know about and two: something that is not meant for you. Sororities are for young ladies and Fraternities are for young men.... plan and simple.....

It is a disgrace to have someone do your organization like this. I have nothing against gays or homosexuals...a have close friends that are gay.But I do have a problem with the actions that were taking place with this incident

Going to Party like it's my birthday!!!!

YYYEEEEAAAA!!! i am 25 now. my birthday was Feb.18th. it was just like any other day,nothing special. A lot of family and friends forgot which I expect because it was on a Sunday. And I myself have forgotten a birthday or two so no harm no foul. On a good note my dad actually remembered and sent me a card. That was special. And of course your grandma never forgets unless she has like 50 or more grandchildren,which one of my grandma's does......

I didn't do anything but clean my apartment(exciting i know) No birthday dinner or anything like that....I don't believe in inviting a lot of people to go eat with me and I end up having to pay for my b-day dinner. Rather just not spend the money. One of my best friends came thru and chatted with me for awhile,and gave me my only gift which I love(it smells like roses but is not actually flowers). So that was good. And my other best friend gave me a cake later on that night and the most hilarious card...it was glued together and on the back it said i wanted to give you a hard time on your birthday lol....of course i was like why the hell can't i open it lmao!!! Anyway so I had some good points in my "not so exciting day"..... But all in all I am just blessed to have seen another year of life and hopefully I can make the most of the new year of life that God has blessed me with.

More blogs coming later....Everyone have a good week!!!

So Much Wrong with the World.........

Parents Have Intercourse In Front of 9yrs-Old Daughter 2 Teach Her About Sex
PROVIDENCE, R.I. —



A Woonsocket mother and her boyfriend are headed to trial on charges they had intercourse in front of the woman's 9-year-old daughter as a way to teach the girl about sex.Rebecca Arnold, of Woonsocket, and her boyfriend, David Prata, have pleaded not guilty to felony child-neglect charges. A pre-trial conference is scheduled for next month.When questioned by an investigator from the state Department of Children, Youth and Families, Prata, 33, said he and Arnold, 36, had sex "all the time" in front of the child and that "we don't believe in hiding anything."He said the girl would often be on the bed watching as the couple had sex.

Though they did not ask her to leave, they also did not force her to remain on the bed, Prata said.Asked why he thought a child that age should know about sexual acts, Prata replied, "We wanted to prepare her so she would know how," according to a report from the investigator, Vanessa E. Cisela.The girl, who is now 11, went to live with her biological father in North Adams, Mass., after spending the summer with her mother in Woonsocket.


Her teacher called the Child Abuse Hotline in December 2004 to report that the girl said her mother and her boyfriend had sex in front of her.The child told a Massachusetts social services investigator that her mother and Prata never touched her or tried to include her in the sex.Woonsocket police arrested Prata and Arnold in February 2005. The couple is accused of "providing an environment that is lewd and depraved in a manner that makes their home unfit for the child to live in," according to court records.Prata and Arnold are free on bail pending a March 19 pretrial conference in Family Court.




They each face one to three years in prison or a maximum $1,000 fine, or both.Their lawyers did not return phone calls from



The Providence Journal.http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,251296,00.html



It is sad that parents would actually do this in front of their children.Makes you wonder what goes on in people's homes today. Whatever happened to the birds and the bees story? Now since children are having sex younger and younger I believe in education but not in this way........think im going to be sick(throwup face)

Damn another week of this......

Ok..... so I have one of the most time consuming jobs ever!! Being a bookkeeper. It's cool getting the checks in and seeing how much money I can collect,but it is not easy dealing with angry people everyday. It' s like they want to try and run me over but I ain't having it. They always want me to change something for them to get rid of money they owe. This is not Burger King you cannot have it your way!!!!!! They just get on my last nerve! And I guess I have to get use to this working everyday deal. It is hard working full time and going to grad school full time. What was I thinking!!!!! But I won't complain to much because I am blessed to even have a Job and be able to go to school, it just bothers me how I have headaches everyday i go home. I just want to scream aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dang....that was a lot of money man

OK so I am a very big giver when it comes to the one I love. Many times I go overboard. If you say you want something and it is in my means of getting, I try my best to get it. Well my girl , we will call her C.D. for now.... wanted a digital camera . Well she has never had one and I got a little bonus from work, so I was like cool...ill get that for the Christmas gift. Well she loved it took it home let her parents see and everything. Everything was cool. She went out of town like two weeks ago....and well let's just say she didn't come back with the camera. Now I know materialistic things can be replaced,but it did burn me up inside that it wasn't taken better care of. Accidents happen and I told her not to worry about it,but it still made me mad to a certain point.

I don't want her to feel like she should never ask for anything else , but I do want her to take of what I do buy. I am trying to decide if I am going to replace it or not. I don't really have the money to do so...but I would like to. Decisions, decisions,decisions. One of my friends called me stupid for even considering replacing it. But I would do anything for her ....and it's just money. So i don't know....guess I need to think on it some more.........

Ready for Love

I think India Arie put it best......
"I am ready for love All of the joy and the pain And all the time that it takes Just to stay in your good grace Lately I've been thinking Maybe you're not ready for me Maybe you think I need to learn maturity They say watch what you ask for Cause you might receive But if you ask me tomorrow I'll say the same thing I am ready for love Would you please lend me your ear? I promise I won't complain I just need you to acknowledge I am here "

Patience is a virtue. That is what they say. It is so hard to be patience for something that you know or feel should be yours. You do all the right things,say all the right words, but Love you can't control.

It won't come to you when you need it or want it. It will come when it is meant to come. I know right now, I am in love with someone,and I have to be patient and wait until they are ready for me and a relationship.

Pressuring someone is one of the worse things you could do. It usually causes them to get further and further away from you. So you have to be willing to work with them and be patient.

I must admit that this has been hard for me, and I know I bring forth pressure that i shouldn't. I hope they know I don't mean to do it just never been in the situation before. But I am working on being better, and showing my love in whatever way I can......

v-day

" the most commercial, you have to spend money holiday there is"

a lot of people love valentine's day, a lot of people hate it. I am kind of in between. I like it because usually i have someone to share it with and also it means my -bday is right around the corner(yeeeaaaaa me!). but on the other hand, i have never really been able to be with someone i truly love and care about and the feelings be the same and on the same level. My father always told me, you shouldn't wait to one day in the year to show someone that you love and care about them. And I live by that. It is kind of shallow to only do something for someone,one day and totally forget about them the rest of the time.

Don't use valentine's day as a day to make up for all of the bullshit you have put someone thru. Use it as a day to do something that you wouldn't be able to do anytime else or to get that special gift that maybe you couldn't afford at Christmas time(y'all know y'all starting to get those refund checks!!!!lol)

Anytime I have dated someone I always told them to get me a b-day gift instead. My b-day is much more important to me. And if I got both it was just an added bonus!

For the people that hate v-day,it usually is because they never have one or love has not gone their way. Many people feel that they waste so much time on people that are not the ones for them. or they feel that when it is the right one it just doesn't go as they want it to.Love is something that you can't control. And for some people that is not easy to deal with. For those people I say,don't give up on love. It is out there for you,you just have to find it in the right one. And sometimes you can't back track to get it. Past relationships are past relationships for a reason.

So this v-day just remember

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear ... "~1 John 4:18~

BANG!!!!!..... I'm Back!

had to switch my style up for a second......get my mind back focused for the new year. Sometimes even with a blog you need to start a new. So here I am back with a bang!!!It's going down for the 07 and I am ready to lay my heart strings on the line. No i am not a professional writer and for that matter i tend to mess up my school papers lol but i do write from the heart and write what is real to me......so on that note I got a lot of catching up to do with the blog world and definitely there is going to be a lot of writing in the next couple of days. I tend to get all over the place when talking about my life cus so much goes thru head. Not to many people get into my blog world and I kind of like it that way. To know me is to love me(at least in my eyes).


So let the fun begin.......
