apart, I don't know whether to be happy on his birthday or regret the day he was born. I'm being honest with my feelings, although I am not a hateful person at the core, I find myself right now waking up hours earlier than I should very angry at the most vivid dream that put me in the direct path of one of my brothers very aggressive drug driven money begging schemes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I feel that my childhood experience and family life was as perfect as anyone else's with so many pleasant memories that to this day can bring a warm feeling to my heart and an broad unscheduled smile to my face, but nothing is perfect in this world and I would be telling you a bold faced lie if I sat here and told you that the things I had to endure through my brothers drug use at a young age didn't affect me in a very powerful way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;If truth be told I must tell you how much I love my deceased Mother, but her relationship with my brother showed me first hand how the hidden unseen tactics of enablers work and how complex a relationship can be when you have a substance abuser on the rampage and the enabler who loves them because she was a prime example of one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;If ever I was to be considered a nut or a psycho it comes out when I, at this adult age, are forced by circumstance to deal with a delusional enabler on any level.&amp;nbsp; And it's not so much that I am ticked off completely at the enabler, what gets me going is how well the abuser of that enabler has them so well trained to jump and do their bidding at will!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;(These next two paragraphs are very abstract so hold on for the ride!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;This goes as far as the enabler making excuses for the massive trail of wrong doings carelessly left by the abuser while they hunt down their next hit or prey without a worry in the world because the enabler will always make a way for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;They will always have a seat at the table for them. You work hard as a person who is trying to show that you are worthy of respect and trust but the enabler can arrive torn and tattered, bloodied and beaten without as much as a question asked of them about their where a bouts as they take their place alongside you feeling very much entitled to enjoy the goodness of life that they never had to earn!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Maybe I am speaking gibberish but I know that someone out here reads me loud and clear because this is my hidden pain freely flowing.in therapeutic fashion for all the world to see. I look at it as taking an emotional crap, letting go and releasing all of the toxic residue that can and will build up in your heart if you don't take action to rid yourself of these poisonous elements.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;And just like the backed up feces in a bad case of constipation that makes ones breath offensive and bloats ones gut to the point of resembling a woman in her final trimester of pregnancy, these emotions that are held inside without properly expelling them will color your view of the world and eventually cause you sickness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But I will never allow any dysfunction to thrive around me without speaking on it, that's like someone passing gas in a crowded room only to hear me compliment the gaseous guilty party on how good the cologne smells that they are wearing while they're haphazardly farting away like it is okay! .......... No, its NOT okay stand here contaminating the air I have to breath and the spineless people who are standing around inhaling the poot are just as guilty, you WON'T be getting any damn cologne compliments from ME you rude uncultured bastard!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;This is why I have so many haters that happen to be used to the company of enablers! They can't have their way with me and get really angry after I school their former enablers to the game that's being run on them!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Like I said before I know someone is out here feeling these words! In my case of growing up around my brothers tricks, it gave me the greatest lessons on the inner workings of dysfunctions overall because although it was drugs in the case of my brother it might be a situation that deal with an alcohol abuse issue in yours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;While in another it could be a wife who uses sex to control the husband and his finances or the promise of everlasting companionship to a woman who suffers from a bad case of daddy hunger and gives too much to the manipulative men who detect this void and use that against her to their advantage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;We all have our unique inroads into this intangible world of manipulation, dysfunction, substance abuse and blame. Its one big swirl that can suck you in at any point but as it does you will quickly learn the other components as I did observing the conundrums of my brothers nomadic lifestyle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;What made it so bad was that he is college educated, well spoken, knowledgeable in all current events, foreign and domestic, charismatic, personable, perfectly groomed, he is very engaging as he mastered the art of conversation and would always find an attractive "hook" to grab your mind and pull you in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;His intellectual range and chameleon-like abilities were second to none! I've personally witnessed him bedazzle arrogant corporate bigwigs with his unique input into their business matters that challenged their well groomed minds and just as quickly turn around within an hour or two, don his street garb to paralyze the brothers on the Harlem street corners with his gifted words of grimy street knowledge delivered in such a lethal never ending rapid fire cadence that will leave even the most hardened ex-con frozen in his tracks!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Fascinating stuff, isn't it?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;And I have to admit, as much as my witnessing the effects of his drug abuse made me run in life's opposite direction to become fanatical as to everything that I consumed into my precious body, his positive effect on my psyche at the same time was undeniable. I always possessed an intense admiration for his social/ intellectual abilities that didn't mix well with the the level of disgust I had that cut so deeply to my core for the destructive&amp;nbsp; habit that he always maintained!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Seeing my brother constantly reading the Wall street Journal and the New York Times, then turn around to see him just as intensely absorbing the words and ghetto philosophies of Iceberg Slim and Donald Goines let me know at a young age that all perspectives were equally important as long as the one sharing their story spoke from the heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;This is what made him such a lethal and undetectable conman, let me tell you! As much as I could warn you about his drug driven skills to literally hypnotized you into reaching for your wallet or purse to GIVE him what he set you up to give, you will nine times out of ten KNOW that you are doing the wrong thing but find yourself in zombie like fashion giving up your hard earned funds because he is JUST THAT GOOD!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;And the funny thing is that he would NEVER ask you for money!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;He's one of those guys that the CIA would secretly hire even after knowing his dealings in the ghetto netherworld but would still set him up with an apartment, a regular allowance, a car, lots of drugs&amp;nbsp; and a couple of sexy hoodrat chickenheads to keep him on retainer in case they needed someone of his vast skill level for their covert governmental purposes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Before I sign of on my rant on this personal issue,&amp;nbsp; let me share with you a tale as to how cold, calculating and diabolical he really is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;My mother suffered two strokes, one in 1993, and the other one in 1994. The one in '94 proved fatal, she was brain dead immediately and was on life support equipment that kept her breathing for weeks until I finally realize that she was truly gone. I felt that although her body was artificially kept alive with the oxygen pumped in and out of her, her soul could not go free and who was I to hold her back from going on to the level for my own selfish reasons?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;That being said, I hadn't seen my brother for almost a year. The last time I had seen him, I went on a rampage at my mothers house when I realized that unbeknownst to her, he was slipping dozens of crackhead females a night past her bedroom door on the second floor of her house while she rested. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;This was just after her first stroke........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;She was kind enough (Or foolish!) to let him stay on the floor above hers in the &lt;span id="lw_1252046102_0" style="-moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer;"&gt;finished attic apartment&lt;/span&gt; "until he gets on his feet", but isn't that always the case with people who use enablers? They will NEVER get on their feet until you are OFF of yours from being tired and broken down in helping them as they drain you of your resources until you draw you last breath! This was a classic case!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Well I found out the reason he brought those characters up in the attic of my mothers house was because he let them "trick" with men for money!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Do you understand what I just said? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Maybe you don't so allow me to clarify my expression in better terms that you can easily digest: My brother brought these slimy disease ridden woman to the attic of my mothers house at night so that these women can have a place to have sex with these strange anonymous men that in turn would "pay" my brother for the privilege of doing business their with either a few dollars or better yet some crack to smoke!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I was tipped off by a neighborhood crack dealer who refused to ever sell anything to him out of respect to my family because he grew up with us often eating dinner at our table and doing homework with me and viewed my mother as his and just couldn't do it. He told me how the&amp;nbsp; operation went down in my mothers house and asked that his name be kept out of it. Not a problem I told him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Now feeling like &lt;span id="lw_1252046102_1"&gt;Sylvestor Stallone's macho mythical character, John Rambo&lt;/span&gt;, I got inside early and quietly took my position on the darkened first floor of the house and watched outside carefully through the venetian blinds as the sun went down, signaling for the nightlife of the streets to come alive!&amp;nbsp; And everything that my crack dealer friend told me would happen would transpire just as he said! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;A car would pull up in front of the house, out came the crackhead prostitute, looking tattered, funky and drunk, eyes BEET red, wearing some dirty jeans and a scarf around her head complete with that universal crackhead herky jerky nervous body movement that indicated malfunctions and extreme damage to her nerve synapses. The man would usually stay in the car until after she threw a few pebbles to the attic window and got the "a okay" that my mother was fast asleep and the coast was clear. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;The "John" was usually some weird looking white dude that could never get a blowjob on his own rap game and possessed a timid demeanor because he probably had a career of high standing and would be crushed if caught in this sodomite styled setup!&amp;nbsp; If not that type, it was some dirty mechanic looking pot bellied older black man that sported a wedding band for a marriage to a wife who "didn't do those freaky things".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;After the front door key was tossed down for their entry, they would open the front door not knowing that I was RIGHT THERE lurking in the shadows and cover of darkness pissed off at the unforgivable violation of my wonderful God fearing mothers house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span id="lw_1252046102_2" style="-moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer;"&gt;Holding hands&lt;/span&gt; in one of the most twisted visuals that I could ever imagined seeing, they crept slowly up the stairs and by the way this woman avoided the squeaks in expert fashion, it told me that she had done this many time before and knew the drill WELL! Now I was really boiling because I watched this happen about 7 more times and 25 minutes hadn't even passed yet!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I've seen enough! It was time for some action! I knew at least 15 people were now upstairs in my mothers house and if I stood there in shock and didn't do anything that there would be so much more people coming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I don't know, maybe I flipped out or maybe it was temporary insanity, but everything started going in slow motion as I retied my Timberlands TIGHT, put on my black leather gloves with the fingers cut out and tied the waistband of my thick black Carhartt sweat bottoms tight as well as my Carhartt hooded black top.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I grabbed my aluminum baseball bat and open the front door WIDE to allow anyone else who wanted to join the party to just come on in. Feel free mutha f*ckers.........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Tiptoeing up those carpeted steps effortlessly because of my adrenalized rage let me know to slow down as to not give my presence away just yet. I am now on the second floor and no one has a clue as to the disaster that is about to happen. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I couldn't pass my sleeping mothers bedroom door without peeking in on her to make sure she was sleeping soundly, my eyes had already adjusted to the darkness and was not ready for the blinding glow of the television screen that she used to love to fall asleep to with the volume down low. I found she did this more so after my father passed away four years earlier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;She was in the bed on her side facing in my direction with the television behind her, so at first I couldn't make out her features because her head eclipse the bright television screen, so as I looked closer at her face as my eyes adjusted, I could see that her eyes were open with tears streaming down her face! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;She knew it was me! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;She knew all along what was going on! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;She never wanted to tell me because she knew someone would die! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;As I drew closer to make sure what I was seeing, she said to me in the most loving voice of someone who just got rescued from a life threatening situation.........: "Thank you".....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I started to cry as her words validated my purpose and the rage within me grew to accompany my mission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I said: "Mommy, it's gonna be alright! Don't panic because there about to be a lot of noise up in here! She slowly nodded in agreement as I locked her in the safety of her room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I thought it was appropriate that the music video "Fight The Power" by &lt;span id="lw_1252046102_3"&gt;Public Enemy&lt;/span&gt; was playing on the television behind her, and although the volume was down and I couldn't hear a thing, I still heard it in my heart as I now faced the staircase that would bring me to the house cleaning that needed to be done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;What I first noticed was how quiet everything upstairs was, and although I didn't get to the top of the steps yet, I knew how many people were up there and just couldn't believe they didn't make a sound! As my now hooded dome slowly peeked over the partition to view the inner workings of a real crack house setup, it baffled me as the first thing I noticed as my eyes had to readjust to the darkness was the small glowing fire in the crack pipes that grew in intensity as the smoker inhaled.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Everyone sat on the floor as I watched one crackhead girl with her pants off ride this white man furiously as he grimaced in pleasure while she smoked away! A Latino chick, on her knees about five feet over from where I stood, performed the most intense blowjob on this Middle Eastern man, she slurped, sucked and orally assaulted this older mans organ as though she were terribly sick and his eventual climax contained the sole antidote.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I noticed not one condom in these filthy and very risky transactions! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Three feet over from her, I saw that same funky crackhead that came in first, on her knees doggy style, catching it from behind from another guy that came with someone else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;As my eyes got focused in the dark, I saw it all! The "joys" of crack in all its glory!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;The broken dreams and empty promises.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;The crying mothers and the stolen goods. The hungry babies and neglected parental duties. My fist clenched that baseball bat as I felt like a panther, poised to devour its prey in one of those nature programs on a Sunday afternoon....... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;All of this I internalized forever in my mind to relive. Now all I could think about was how low my sibling could be to do such a thing over his mothers head.........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;I shouted with every ounce of strength I could muster: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;HEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;The cracked out occupants and their johns all jumped like the roaches in a ghetto project apartment when you cut the lights on in the kitchen! And like an old roach in a new kitchen, they didn't know WHERE to run because I stood at the only entrance! What shocked me was that for the moment I stood transfixed at the chemically driven lurid sex displays, three shadowy figures stood behind me eeriely quiet on the stairwell just waiting to join the festivities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Well who was I to not grant them their wish?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;They fell like dominoes in what seemed like an eternity after I kicked the closet one right in his mouth! My baseball bat took on a life of its own as I swung at every available skull that came my way. I know that I am not a violent person and would rather setlle things on a more intellectual level.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But tell that to a mother whose daughter just got raped!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Tell that to a grandson whose grandfather just got mugged.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Settling things intellectually and peacefully is the way to go but sometimes I think the dear Lord turns his back in certain situations when those GRAND violations happen to innocent law abiding people. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;.......and I think this was one of them. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;For the next 90 seconds I brought myself to the point of exhaustion from the butt whipping that rivaled the best Bruce Lee group level fight scene, not that I was some great fighter or something, but the level of intensity that moment possessed would be one of the things I speak on when I'm an old man in a rocking chair sharing my tales with others trying to top each others. It's a shame that we didn't have YouTube back then! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;The screaming, the pushing, the terror,&amp;nbsp; the cursing that transpired as I watched these half naked crackheads and "in shock tricks" run past me, down the steps and flooding out into the streets left the ransacked apartment in a wreck with only my brother left to try to talk his way out of this one. It's funny, we are eleven years apart in age and it was at that moment that I felt more mature than him, older than him and more responsible, although I had already displayed those traits for years. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;

font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Standing there in shock as to how he could be so cool in the midst of my now simmering rage, he walked right past me, down the steps and into the night with the rest of his friends while I flipped the light on to take note of the carnage that I knew I would have to clean up. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232;

font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;A nation rise no higher than its woman. I'm quite sure you've heard this before. But have you ever taken the time to really think about what it means and why in particular we need to understand this more than anyone else in the world these days?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Its very embarrassing when you look at our behavior in comparison to others on the world stage, we seem to be the only race of people who specialize in presenting our &lt;span id="lw_1251661386_0"&gt;sacred vessels&lt;/span&gt; of divine womanhood as a cheap harlot for the all others to indulge their lustful deviant cravings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Now you must understand that I don't mean all of us, but TOO many of us sadly fall into this twisted category. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;You don't see any other race doing this to their women, and although every race has their issues, problems and challenges and are not perfect but we overall hands down just take the CAKE! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;We are so quick to want fight when someone calls our mother out of her name but we ourselves will call someone elses mother a b•tch in a heartbeat when she doesn't give us the time of day as men with our weak watered down pick up lines!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;It irks me to see our potential wasted so easily and understand at this point in my life that it is not by chance and by design. And I wonder how much more lower we can sink. Most ANIMALS have more respect for the female of their species. We expect our women to get up and work hard for us like we are their pimps, and then we expect them to respect us and put out some good loving when the lights go out!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;It's a wonder she is not out of her mind because she NEVER gets the righteous treatment she deserves! Many will say that the hoochie types don't deserve it but try it out and see the difference once they get a taste of what it's like to be treated like a real lady. Once their eyes are opened, they will never turn back!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But look at our environment, what do our young girls in the 'hood have to see all of the time? What types of conversations are they hearing that and what is being reinforced deep into their subconscious mind? What is being fed to them on the television as they sit down quietly absorbing it all?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;The bar is set with their morals and values when the filthiest&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;videos, reality television programs and media role models are there to help them digest the most decadent standards of behavior in the history of mankind! And although many of you will doubt me and say that this stuff has been going on forever from back in the Biblical days, you are partially correct! But never has the dispersal of the information that is so trangressional to God's standards been so easy to deliver as it is now because in those old days they did not have the electronic avenues to utilize. Imagine how much MORE powerful Caesar would have been if he had the television to control the masses and deliver his propaganda as much of a control freak and narcissist he was! LOL!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Our young ladies are unknowingly indoctrinated into a rite of passage that will escort them right into the realm of death! The sad part is it will for a time seem like the hip thing to do. We in our foolishness, encourage our young girls to "get it girl" when they emulate the moves that they have learned on the television and in the schoolyard.

THIS is their passion! To learn how to attract men with their bodies as though this is an accomplishment in the first place! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But what these young girls do not realize as the gloat to their girlfriends about how much these men desire them is that a good majority of these damn hump happy lust trained monkeys would jump on a man if he had on the right make-up, cheap perfume, garter belt, stockings, high heels and a cheap wig slapped haphazardly atop his over sized head that sports a dead give away of a 5 o' clock shadow! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Don't believe me? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Go to Aol or Yahoo and cruise the M4M (Male For Male) rooms in YOUR city and tell me what you see! They will be even more packed the the chat rooms designated for&amp;nbsp; women to meet men!&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;These men don't desire nothing more than a quick release from the stimulation received elsewhere or the images that trigger off their testosteronized twisted libidos! So any available funky brown orifice will suffice whether it's attached to either a woman or man! For more on this subject please read my other blog entitled: "Ladies: Are You A Glorified Friction Provider?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;So now the world is a whole new wonderful place as these hoochies in training can't wait to graduate to official hood rat status because of the attention to be enjoyed and the trinkets to be gained! The most deadly part of Hoochie-ism is that it is very rarely honored by men outside of the ghetto! Now if others find themselves looking to play with a Black ghetto hoochie sister then notice nine times out of ten they will play with you all night in YOUR neighborhood but they will NEVER bring your ghetto a*s up over to THEIR side of town at all!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Why?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Because you are there for play and play only, you are not to ever be taken serious and even if YOU wanted to be taken seriously as a person with a desire for more out of this life, look at how the heck you present yourself! Is a quick freaky creep session isn't all you have to offer then why would you want to present yourself in this manner?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Why did I title this blog in this way? Because it is true! Being a hoochie is government subsidized and backed by nations wealth, although you won't see anything in print saying this, just open your eyes and look around! Hoochies get PAID! At least their basic needs are, and the rest is up to them and the sky is the limit as far as they can hustle their genitalia and whoring skills. How nice! Become a hooker like hoochie, have a few children and no means of supporting them and get a check from the government.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;It's THAT easy! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;There are some rules to hoochie-ism that must not be broken if you desire to remain a government backed hoochie, they are: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Do not get married!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/Sp4EVE8izaI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/XWtSudItcHk/s1600-h/african-american-couple-at-wedding.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/Sp4EVE8izaI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/XWtSudItcHk/s320/african-american-couple-at-wedding.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Marriage is a threat to the governments goal of keeping the Black family divided and conquered, to be married and have a good hard working man who possesses good morals in your home raising your kids will inspire them to stay with their spouses when they get older and will make them "hoochie agenda resistant", thus stopping the continuation and deterioration of the Black family.

Their very existence helps to perpetuate certain conditions although I must say that they are a PART of the blame but not the whole. They do play a crucial role in the ghetto plantations across the land that keeps the government thriving.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;The ghetto food chain is a complex and very powerful way of existing (I sure can't say living!) that traps it's occupants in an intangible lifestyle and culture and keeps them there although no visible chains are present. It's the limitations of their thinking that keeps them there. It's the limitation of their knowledge that holds them there. And for those who HAVE the knowledge to break free of the 'hood, the pleasures are too intense to deny. Because once one of these potentially powerful&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Brothers get caught up with the addictive charms and freaky sex practices of a hoochie mama, it is VERY hard to get away because these women feel deep in the back of their mind that they have nothing more to offer any man than a good romp in the bedroom so guess what? They PRACTICE their craft until their mastery of it is undisputed! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;So when you are in the midst of one of these very ignorant sounding, colorfully garbed and suggestively exposed entities, realize that they have been carefully crafted in a very deliberate process that has developed them through wicked and masterfully twisted engineered degenerate conditions to bring about something so far away from what our Creator intended for our woman to be.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/Sp4DmjX-MWI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/wS32eD8Hb8k/s1600-h/Nefertiti.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/Sp4DmjX-MWI/AAAAAAAAAJ0/wS32eD8Hb8k/s400/Nefertiti.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;The former regal Queens of the world who were the pinnacle of royalty, the epitome of beauty, the original authentic conduits of Heaven on earth and an example to all other women in the world who now look down and laugh upon her in her drunken state forgetting at one time that she bedazzled all who gazed upon her majesty while those same others crawled in their own urine laced feces out of the caves that they once called home!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: larger;"&gt;I must also be mentioned that being raised in money and privilege&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f1c232;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: larger;"&gt;does not grant you the automatic status of having true class, there are multitudes of beautiful intelligent Black women who live, work and were raised in this place we call the 'hood.

When one possesses this state of mind, it will eventually lift and exalt them above all others who chose to immerse themselves in the very limited filthy options in their midst.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;b&gt;Developing oneself to being a woman of true class and culture CAN be done in the so called 'hood, don't you know many women who stand tall in this category?

So for all of you politicians, religious leaders, media / music moguls and all who have a hand in selling out the majesty of the Black women do not understand who she is and what she represents in this current time line in history are in for one heck of a surprise with her blood on your hands!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;So although the style of writing in this blog was purposely written in a comical manner to drive home the messages involved, do know that I truly respect our women even if they do not know who they are or carry themselves as they should! You must tolerate them as they are right now in order to help to bring them out of their downtrodden condition and look for the best IN them to cultivate the God-force that dwells within that this world constantly tries so hard to snuff out!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Somewhat, because today on my job driving the bus, I am "seeing" so much so fast. So I don't know what direction that I will be taking in writing tonight.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ready for the ride with Scurv?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay, let's go.....................&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me tell you about a few of the interesting people who boarded my bus tonight.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It being a Friday night makes for some very usual happenings, its like a thunderstorm.

Povich!............&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I see the young guy who looks to be about 20, he nervously asked me about a particular stop on my bus route, this indicated to me that he never took this bus or doesnt know the side of town that he is venturing into. Looking at his clean cut profile and the fact that he dressed like a nerdy college kid WITH a belt that kept his pants up respectably, I got the feeling that he was on his way to pick up a young lady for a good old fashioned "let me take you to the movies and have you home by ten date!" That notion was confirmed when he called THAT young lady on his cellphone to let her know that he was getting closer by telling her the landmark which indicated his position. This warmed my heart over because contrary to popular belief, there ARE some decent young men left in the world. All hope is not lost for our youth..........&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As soon as I was beginning to enjoy my very alert tranquility, I saw a woman about a block ahead of me who was very animated in her demeanor as she spoke on her cellphone. She&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;switched hands frequently as though the phone was a very hot handle of a pot off the stove.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After I approached the stop and pull close to the curb, I happened to lock eyes with this woman and felt a chill go down my spine for that split second before I ripped my gaze from hers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpjvhUjdncI/AAAAAAAAAJE/BbHdBE_Yy2U/s1600-h/Cellphone.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpjvhUjdncI/AAAAAAAAAJE/BbHdBE_Yy2U/s320/Cellphone.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;I REMEMBER THIS WOMAN FROM BEFORE!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know her but I remember her! She took my bus before and acted very strange and I never forgot it! She possessed an air of extreme evil even though most men would be ALL OVER HER by the way she was built. She had an hourglass shape, full thighs, absolutely NO WAISTLINE and knew she had it going on with jeans that must have been spray painted on!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I picked up the fact that she fully utilized her body as a weapon to seduce men and I also felt strongly from her that she had a deep resentment for men and took joy in getting next to them and wrecking their lives after milking them dry of all available assets.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is why I do not like to even look a boarding passenger in the eyes at first because if they are agitated or high, the eye contact can bring about a temporary "transferral of madness." Some may not understand this and maybe you might think I am nuts for saying this but I think you like me because I truly say what is on my mind and I am going to you a shoot from the hip juicy tidbit now: I strongly believe that the eyes are the windows to the soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are days when I am highly intuitive more so than others and can literally FEEL a persons intentions and their spirit. When passengers board my bus I know who to open up to and I know who to tune out by the vibrations I feel from them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the flip side, when I start my driving day (Which is actually 5:45 in the evening but it the start of MY day!) I am completely centered and in tune with myself and in the spirit. I have found this state of being to actually agitate a few people who ride my bus because my "centered demeanor" makes them realize how far off they truly are and they become self conscious of THEIR madness! So in order to feel better within themselves they have to now find a way to agitate me and SHARE their confusion by transferring it to me by means of a confrontation! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;Did I lose you?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So now they will complain loudly about the bus being too cold or will purposely pull the stop request chime cord at the very last minute before their stop and attempt to have me mash the brakes hard and get me out of my game by possibly causing an accident. It never works because I stay calm and smooth while kindly bringing their a*s to the NEXT stop! They will think about doing THAT again as they have to walk half a mile BACK to their intended bus stop!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;No back to the sexy evil lady who got on my bus..........&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remembered this woman because every time she would get on my bus, she demanded everyone's attention by doing something outlandish. Most of the time she would be in an imaginary argument with a man who she had to "straighten out" or she would try her best to get my attention by acting as though she was in a rush while I had to stop for a few minutes to make a mandatory connection with another bus. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was ALWAYS something with this woman! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She just wasn't happy within herself and it showed. She had the lewdest hoe stroll "hooker strut" that one could ever imagine. She winded her backside to the point where her well rounded booty cheeks resembled two pigs fighting under a blanket! Each butt cheek was in constant chaos! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpjuzV8WzdI/AAAAAAAAAIs/lmm7XpF-a24/s1600-h/ms-materialistic.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpjuzV8WzdI/AAAAAAAAAIs/lmm7XpF-a24/s320/ms-materialistic.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;You couldn't help BUT look! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even the old church lady in the back couldn't break her gaze of how this woman used the movement of her body to let you know EXACTLY where she was coming from and EXACTLY what she was all about! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her walk said: "You want some of this? Then you got to PAY ME! PAY ME for every man that hurt me! Pay me for every man that told me that he loved me, took my sex and LEFT me! Pay me for how messed up my life really is because I found out that one day you get older and the booty hustle doesn't work anymore like it used to and I'm scared and don't know any other way to make money!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She was in pain!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But she was also MAD!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I didn't do a damn thing to this lady as I am quite the gentleman to everyone in public, but I think I represented something to her that ticked her off in a very deep way and I think I realized what it was. Now first off I am not saying that it was ACTUALLY me but how I come off in public to SOME women, because I've noticed this type of thing happening in other scenarios. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I think that this type of woman has given up on EVER finding a good man in her life. I think this type of woman really NEVER had an example of a good man in her life and said to herself: "Well, since these no good dogs just want me for sex, then I am going to cut all emotion and stop dreaming about a nice guy for myself and get all I can get before they use ME down like all the others!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe I'm wrong but a few of the female passengers seemed to feel that this is what it was as we discussed her after she left. But she positioned herself in a way that allowed me to see her in my mirror, then, she picked up her phone and began to tell this guy off about how much she has and how much she doesn't need "no" man for any d*ma thing. The funny part is, all the while she was talking to this person who seemed to be imaginary, she was looking me DEAD in the eye as she cussed this man out! She told him that she doesn't care if he has a good job. That she doesn't care if he is a good looking man. It really seem like she had a problem with me because now she finally sees a guy she likes and he is not PAYING HER ANY MIND! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although I am married, she probably didn't see the ring because it is on my left hand and that hand is hard to see while holding the big bus steering wheel. So in her mind maybe I was fair game. Maybe she felt dirty and was in shock that I didn't give her some slick pick up line like the other "pimp daddy" bus drivers because for a little while before she started up her charade, she sat quiet and absorbed my conversation with two very decent hard working and clean woman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This conversation was of a spiritual and prophetic nature which kind of showed where my mind is at.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Something she is not used to.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now there is so much more to my day that I can share like this on a free flowing level with some really deep anecdotes and viewpoints. Maybe if you would like, I can do this on a regular basis maybe like once a week or something. Let me know, because EVERY single day out there in the streets of Orlando Florida at night, I can tell you a completely new set of bedtime stories every night!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;LOL!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The difference with me is that this is REAL stuff that happened just hours earlier and not some cooked up fiction from a gifted authors imagination!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;I am going to hit the sack now and can continue with more when I wake up. Give me your feedback, we can do it like this every Friday!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S: One more juicy tidbit before signing off..................&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On my last run last night coming inbound heading downtown through one of the residential 'hoods. My bus was empty as I slowly approached a stop sign. I stopped for a moment, took a swig of the last of the now warm carton of orange juice that was my constant companion for that day and noticed a female off in the dark distance SCREAMING! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I tentatively held my position at the stop sign and attempted to locate the source of the shrill terror filled voice but I just couldn't. But as soon as I wrote it off to some young girls having fun with the bus driver by making some noises, my peripheral vision kicked in and noticed some swift movement to my immediate right!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coming into view was something that temporarily just DIDN'T make any sense at all! Running quickly toward my bus was a totally naked woman who ran for her LIFE! Frightened and shocked, I visually trailed her nude form as it passed in front of the bus to my left side and into the night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now she wasn't skinny like a hungry crackhead, but she had her hair done and a few pieces of jewelry on as well as what appeared to be pedicured toenails. Now don't question me on how I saw all of this detail so quickly, remember, I am an artist and see EVERYTHING! LOL!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My ghetto survival senses now kicked in and realized that I better brace myself because unless she was just nuts and out of her mind, she was running from something REAL! And I did NOT want to get caught up in someone elses crap so close to being able to coming home!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as soon as I thought that, coming from that same direction from my right, was a man that was totally naked except for wearing ONE SOCK! He wasn't destitute as he appeared to be well fed wearing a nice shiny bracelet and a "still very happy" manhood that still blood engorged! What EVER he was running from must have JUST happened, 'cause the brother didn't have the time to get OUT of the mood!&lt;span style="color: #f1c232; font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;What the heck? Now I'm REALLY curious and just couldn't move just yet. Now what I forgot to mention that as they both ran in front of my bus they looked back constantly in the direction they ran from. Now I'm REALLY frightened! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Want to hear the punchline to this story?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mean, this JUST happened and I found it sooooo amusing and self explanatory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But as I waited to see if anymore clues would be revealed as to what could scare these two, it appeared!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What you might ask?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well..............&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was ANOTHER man with ALL his clothes on running after them with a BIG A*S butcher knife in his hand.........&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpjvrKbvrnI/AAAAAAAAAJM/J0aQrYTSOfU/s1600-h/knife+in+hand.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpjvrKbvrnI/AAAAAAAAAJM/J0aQrYTSOfU/s400/knife+in+hand.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;I believe the moral of this story is self explanatory!

But please realize that it really isn't worth it, stay home with your OWN mate or just plain use your doggone hand if you are alone! You will get it good the way you want it without all the unnecessary embarrassment and drama!............&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #f1c232;

The Great Pyramids, the &lt;span id="lw_1251411692_1"&gt;Eiffel Tower&lt;/span&gt;, the Empire State Building, the list can go on for pages! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But when you are in the big city look around!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpeP6eBUCLI/AAAAAAAAAIM/HRMvym7SN7c/s1600-h/skyscrapers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpeP6eBUCLI/AAAAAAAAAIM/HRMvym7SN7c/s320/skyscrapers.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Those buildings took so much effort and time to erect and many of us take that fact for granted in not utilizing those same principles into our life!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;As I've said in many of my writings before, that everything we see is the product of a thought. Is there something that you wish to one day accomplish? Then you will have to THINK! There is no one person who lived, is living or has yet to be born that has created anything without thinking about it except a MESS!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Someone had to think about building that skyscraper long before it became a reality now didn't they? And if they didn't think about what to do with that area of land then someone else might have a thought on what to do with it so merely thinking is the first important step but it isn't enough! Something more has to come behind it to help to make that building a reality!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But let me interject, that if you merely thought about what to do with the land but never took action, then you have allowed that thought to be wasted and your window of opportunity to create has been circumstantially relinquished to the universe and someone ELSE will get the chance to make something of it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;That someone else might take advantage of that time and space and build something else spectacular there or maybe the land will go neglected and become a dump.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;An eyesore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Garbage. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Rats. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Trash. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Wasted potential with no one to cultivate it to greatness, and if you owned this land and did nothing with it, it would bring about the annoying reality of costing you lots of money through violations and fines because of the obvious hazards it presents to the neighborhood in that state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Do you think it is only a lifeless plot of land that when neglected, can be such a liability to all that exists around it or when cultivated can be such a plus to everything in its midst and beyond?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;If your answer was no then you are absolutely correct! Can you conceptualize that maybe these same situations can apply to us as human beings in our own personal lives? Of course they do!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Like that small area of land with vast potential, we can either develop ourselves on a great foundation for the mighty accomplishments that will stand on our shoulders or we can deteriorate down to something that those around us will find repulsive, depressing and very ugly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;You have to dream your plan and plan your dream!

To deny oneself of the immediate gratification and quick fixes in order to stay focused on the bigger picture is the true secret to lasting success. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;This is why some of the older athletes can come out of retirement and take their younger teammates to school, showing them the techniques that they have developed over decades that all of the mass marketing, endorsements, mega-contracts, steroids and high tech training could never bring out of them!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Just like those huge skyscrapers that bedazzle the small town tourists who give their "out of town" status away by their constant gaze upward, we as humans, like those buildings, must have the hand of wisdom to help craft us, meaning, that we MUST have a mentor to guide us in our development.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Many of us are too arrogant to even believe that we could NEED anyone when the world continually lies to us about our underdeveloped talents and tells us how great we are! We cut our growth short by cashing in too soon on the ego trip without toiling at the feet of the masters to truly learn the tiniest tricks of our trade that will help us to endure for decades!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpeQblovwwI/AAAAAAAAAIc/g5OLJDpBGr0/s1600-h/stonemasons.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SpeQblovwwI/AAAAAAAAAIc/g5OLJDpBGr0/s320/stonemasons.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;If anyone has been priviledged to watch a stone mason work it is an amazing sight indeed. I had an old friend of mine to whom I worked with in the Home Depot back in the day, ( Yes, good old Scurv worked in the Floor &amp;amp; Wall department at the Rockaway Blvd. Store in Queens New York back in 1994-95, when it first opened!) Gino Biaggio, who was so advanced in his knowledge in the art and science of laying tile.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Now let me tell you, he taught me things that I could have NEVER learned from a book or on my own! This is because even though he was young in his late twenties, he learned what he knew from the old masters from Italy who possessed hands on knowledge that was passed down from the ages, hundreds of years!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But our mistake is that we feel we know it all and don't need anyone to go higher in our craft! When we understand that there is nothing new under the sun and that we can learn from others and manifest the greatness from within even faster, it will be easy to submit to that knowledge from others that will help us to avoid the time consuming and costly mistakes made so often by those who are stubborn. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;So if we can become just a degree more proficient in our craft than we were in the previous day, we have been victorious. Progress doesn't always flow evenly, somedays it will feel as though you are progressing in huge leaps and bounds and other times just a slow trickle. But ANY movement forward is progress regardless how large or small! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Using myself as an example, I was 40 years old just over six years ago at the time of this writing when I decided to really move forward with the music (Artwork &amp;amp; writing) that discreetly resided in my heart. The thoughts, the wit, the artistic expressions worked on constantly while never wavering has allowed me to meet so many wonderful people the world over above and beyond my wildest expectations.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;But I cringe when I think of that very depressing day many years ago when I almost quit......... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #bf9000;

And as far as I am concerned, the ONLY TRUE RELIGION on this earth is TOTAL SUBMISSION to the will of God! If God said it, believe it!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;If God said don't do it, then leave it alone.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;If God said do it, then even if the government said not to do it, then I STILL WILL!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;We need to stop interjecting our limited understanding into what the will of God dictates that we should do and what we should not do!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;This is why the religious world is messed up in the manner that it is because we feel we can enhance something that is already perfect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232;

font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;So while we can go a whole lifetime arguing our religious cases to others who are just as stubborn to come back with a counterpoint, your enemy is happy that you are too preoccupied on earth feeling theologically superior to others while he gets your spot ready to spend the rest of eternity with him and ALL the same people you have argued with in togetherness in HELL!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Because as far as HE is concerned, those who are WAYWARD &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;Baptists, Rastas, Atheists, Jews, Methodists, Muslims, Pentecostals, Mormons, Catholics, Buddhists and Adventists ALL burn the same! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;So think about THAT while you push your denominational B*LLS*IT!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #f1c232;

resources and tapping into it is just a mere phone call away!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;While you have some unstable lazy family members who feel they are empowered to purchase "any car on the lot" or taking their pals out for a "night of drinking" while expecting you to cosign the note or foot the tab because of YOUR good credit, assets &amp;amp; work history! Why are they the ones who are so fast to want to "treat" the masses like Jesus did with the fish and bread by dispersing your resources generously without even having the courtesy to ask? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Imagine coming home tired but ready to cook a great turkey dinner only to hear that&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;"Sister Needy came over earlier when you were at work&amp;nbsp; (Why can't they be at work too?) and told me her 'fridge was empty, so I gave her those two turkeys out of the freezer and two bags of groceries to hold her over until the weekend."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;(Hold her over!

And even IF Sister Needy NEEDED the stuff, at least someone could have called your job. Heck, you get calls at the job when the CABLE is cut off don't you?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;And that Sister Needy (We all know one like her!), she always comes around when you are not around to ask for something because she knows that she will GET IT quicker from the freeloader in your home because he/she has the strong need to be in a position of being in charge and to feel important! But that's ANOTHER story and blog subject! LOL!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;It doesn't always have to be a family member or and in-law, it could also be friends! How many of us have known of a person (Or maybe ourselves) who took in a female friend who has endured for years in an abusive relationship getting physically beat down on a regular basis as well as the mental and emotional abuse? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;You thought that you were doing a good thing as you allowed her full and total access to your home so that she could at least have a few weeks of quiet time to heal up and figure out the best direction for her life to take. You've pleaded with her for years to escape the abuse as her growth on the personal and professional fronts have all but come to a halt because of her connections to this man. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;You've spent endless hours soothing her as she cried out her pain. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;You've given her money as she needed even when she DIDN'T ask you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;She seems to be getting better but as she does, you found out from a mutual friend that she was seen at the mall with her abusive boyfriend holding hands and acting lovey dovey. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;You realize that you are being taken for a good ride! The irony is that after she left without even as much as a thank you, you were told how bad she spoke of you and shared whatever insignificant personal little inside secrets that she was privy to learning of when she was there. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;What took the cake was when you heard from a mutual friend that the reason you tried to tell her not to go back to that abusive man was because you were jealous of her and didn't want to see them together! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Now two months later she shows up to your door again with TWO black eyes telling you that she has no where else to stay....... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;She would then be immediately directed to the nearest park bench or homeless shelter seconds before the door slammed in her face.........&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Now! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Back to the "in-house" family dead beats.......&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;If they could, most will find themselves happily luxuriating in YOUR home, laid back on the sofa with their musty toe jam sportin' feet up on your coffee table and the brand new "all in one" remote control in their hand (And they know how to work it better than you do, that's why you have to always ask THEM how to use it!) enjoying the fruits of your labor while YOU work two and three jobs! Your home has become an&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;&lt;span id="lw_1251313162_0"&gt;extended stay&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;flophouse hotel and you are the last to know or even worse haven't the slightest clue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Once they are secure with their claws embedded deep into your tired work fatigued butt cheeks, they will now display the brazen traits of a person made to feel secure by your lacking the testicular fortitude to set the record straight about the rules and regulations that you were SUPPOSED to have them completely understand and established long before they set foot into your home as you've allowed them to turn a mere visit into an official LIFETIME ADOPTION!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;I've heard one case of a jobless dead weight family member at home having the nerve to call their step father's job to tell him that the cable has been cut off and he needs to know where the money stash is to be able to pay the cable guy right there on the spot because he can't afford to miss the game that will be on soon!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Can't afford to miss the game? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Don't make me say the "N" word!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Dang! You can't afford to even take care of your OWN non productive self yet you have the nerve to call another man while he is working to keep a free roof over YOUR head to ask for HIS money so you can sit back and watch a game!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt; I say we need to keep the "N" word in circulation for people like THIS! For there is no word too harsh nor too cutting for a sad example of a person such as this!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;They even push their chest out so proudly to the world with a stolen sense of accomplishment from the achievements that YOU'VE earned and sacrificed&amp;nbsp; with sweat, blood and tears over the years for!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Every victory earned and accomplished personally by you (Promotions &amp;amp; raises!) makes their heart joyous because that's less required of them to achieve! They revel in your success, why not? Its more for them to take FROM you! This is why they will treat you so well when you have a life threatening illness, they want to strengthen their argument to the other leeches who masquerade as caring family members so that if you kick the bucket, they can stand strong in the argument that THEY deserve your possessions!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;You become the face of the enemy when you break the lifetime chains of dysfunction and demand accountability! You become the enemy even more so if it is a situation that you joined onto was through marriage or shacking up, you see, after the initial "love fest" assimilation period is over with your in-laws, you will learn how much love they really have for you when you do not fall into place as an brand new "out the box" super enabler to the preexisting state of imbalance through co dependence and the dysfunctions that are inherited to the younger members of that family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;The do nothing freeloaders who are motivationally deficient have shrewdly warped the perceptions of the rest of their family members against YOU in order to position themselves to maintain their slothful access to YOUR resources as they treat the righteous concepts of accountability and responsibility as four letter words! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;These other family members will foolishly and automatically attack you because in comparison to that leech who started it all, they are at least a known component and not like you who are a new ingredient to the salty soup that is THEIR family!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Communication is the key, so when you find an individual who has situations within there family where they do not communicate, realize that this is a terrible sign indeed! I have personally experienced families who practice what I call mass generational non communication, and the results to their lives have been literally disastrous! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;You can look them dead in the eye and make a very important inquiry and they will sit right there in front of you and refuse to answer! I refused to accept this type of madness and have personally tossed those types right out of the front door! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Who cares if the rest don't "love" you anymore, this can't bother you when you always knew that they really never loved you in the first place! LOL!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;So if you as much as SNIFF the potential for something like this to transpire in your life with a family that you hope to join unto I say make sure the boundaries are set and make sure that NO ONE is allowed to bring their sick practices and delusional expectations up under your roof for as long as you live! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;Your peace of mind, well being and happiness &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #ff99cc;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;depend on you taking action in not ever being used in this manner!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;

text-align: center;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Sometimes it kind of baffles me when I hear someone say: "One day when I get my act together, I really want to focus on building a great legacy and do something that will last beyond my life." The funny thing that has hit me hard in one of my personal realizations is that whatever you do in this life IS part of your legacy. It is not something that you think up to do, it is the track record of the life that you are currently living right now!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you careful to realize that what YOU are doing right now you will be remembered for? This is very important to understand especially since the misjudgments in our life cannot be erased as easily as the mistakes written on a piece of paper. This is why forgiveness and salvation are so very important to all of us. "All have fallen short" as we like to say, but imagine if our legacies were truly written in stone! For the majority of us, this would NOT be such a great thing at all!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time while we cannot change our pasts, we can make improved choices to reroute our actions for the better in the future. We are writing the chapters of our lives as we speak, so do know that whatever reality that you seem to be stuck in now at the moment, it's all a matter of perception. If you can believe that it will change, it will!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But many of us feel that "this is the way it's always been, so why should next year be any better?" WAKE UP! TAKE CHARGE! Stop being brainwashed and trained like a monkey into believing such nonsense while others are living a full, enthusiastic, happy and very much vibrant life!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why do we languish in the mediocre when we were created to baffle all onlookers with our greatness? Why does it seem easier to "join the herd" and settle for a mere retirement check when the riches of the world can be attained literally overnight? Now don't let me confuse you, this blog is not about money nor am I implying that the accrual of money is a fair measure of success, it's not and I think you all know me better than that if you know my work online.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's stir it up now......&lt;br /&gt;I am picking on these particular issues not to make anyone feel bad but it's something that we all can identify with, and you know I have love for all of my sisters but you also know that I will get all up in your a-s-s out of love when we speak amongst family BEHIND THE CLOSED DOORS OF THESE BLOG PAGES....!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why do we settle for the excuse that "I'm heavy because everybody in my family is big boned so we ain't supposed to be skinny people!" Have you ever thought that the reason why you all are so heavy is because growing up you all ate the same kind of food everyday out of the same ill stocked refrigerator without challenging yourself physically?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Being big and fat is NOT your legacy if you stop living a sedentary lifestyle and get up off your butt everyday and get some exercise while staying away from the fried oily food and sugary beverages! Unless one has a health issue that prevents them from making improvements, what is stopping you from changing the ritual of sitting around with your friends and bonding through food? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;It's what we do that makes the difference in our lives. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;We are not born into any one particular compartmentalize existence! The world is huge and it is up to you to put the right thoughts into your head to therefore begin to turn the wheels that will eventually bring you into that happy new life. We MUST learn how to reinvent ourselves in order to be enabled to righteously CLAIM that brand new life!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Being mediocre is NOT in your legacy, and it DAMN sure ain't in mine!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;One last word for the weight issue. Many of you know that as a teenager, I was into competitive bodybuilding winning the 1982 NBBA Teenage Mr. America(Check deep in my photo section)and personal training, proper eating etc., so when I speak on these things, I kinda know what I am speaking about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;But many years ago while waiting to pick up a friend from the airport arriving on an international flight, I had lots of time on my hands because the flight was delayed. Well, I seem to have this uncanny ability to slow down or speed up my perception of time. I can get lost in my own mental world (That didn't sound too kosher but I HOPE you know what I mean! LOL!)and make a long time period move fast because I can detach myself from what is going on around me....just the same way I can focus really hard and get so much completed in a thirty minute period.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Well, while meditating at the airport, watching the many colorful individuals arrive in from a vast array of many different countries, it hit me how DIFFERENT each people looked from the others from the different continents. What also hit me was how even the people who came from what many would call impoverished countries, looked so much healthier than us who are considered living the American lifestyle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;You see, when you have to get up early to work the fields, work the land, work on a job that makes little money then come home to take care of making food from scratch, you won't have too much time to get fat! There "ain't no" (Ebonics! LOL!) McDonalds around to consume two days worth of calories in one 20 minute meal!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Go to the affluent white neighborhoods in the morning and witness the amount of old white men and old white women jogging or walking before the sun comes up! You see, life to them is so sweet that they want to PROLONG it with regular exercise and clean food! Eighty years old and they are jogging but in the 'hood we are stroke victims! They have enjoyed a very spiritually charged morning witnessing the beauty of a sunrise for another beautiful day and we are still in the bed snoring and regretting another wake up to a usually sad reality while we are picking the pork fat goo out of the corner of our eyes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Go figure!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Go take a trip to the supermarkets in the rich white neighborhoods and notice how well stocked it is with BETTER foods! You are what you eat! So if you LOVE fried pig, you will LOOK LIKE a big oily pig! So it is all a matter of WHAT you do in your life! It's YOUR choice. You are NOT glued to any one reality that will stick you permanently into the same old LEGACY!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;To those of you who complain about "these foreigners" coming over here to take all of the jobs, well, why were those jobs available when you butt was here first and could have filled those positions? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Why? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;I'll tell you why, it's because those minimum wage jobs were BELOW you and you weren't cleaning someones toilet to make a dollar! Now look at the economy in this country, you'll be glad to do anything now that you might lose your house and lose your car to repossession. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;And more than likely that "waste of time" urge to get your hair fried or your nails polished will bring you to the very establishments of those who took the jobs years ago that you refused but now take that same money you have to continue to build their legacy of upward mobility while yours is a poor legacy of foolish hedonistic sport and play!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;And they laugh at our dumb a-s-s-e-s, the Indians and Pakistani's have taken the 7-11 franchise to a new level and have turned an American franchise to their benefit! More power to them! They have taught you how to take nothing and turn it into something right in front of your very eyes but you STILL can't see! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;You STILL refuse to take note! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;We are the JOKES of the world and in our OWN communities we don't even control WHERE our money goes. Our own money leaves our communities as soon as we spend it. A legacy of failure. But in the other communities the money spent circulates many times over, benefiting those who are there pumping their economy to new growth and new heights literally pulling themselves up by the boot straps! While all we worry about is "looking good!" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Well isn't that a travesty? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;We are so concerned about "looking good" with our style of dress and the flamboyance of our hairstyle yet don't even concern ourselves with looking good in our financial profiles. All you need to do to feel good is to walk around with that cashed paycheck flashing it in the club like you "got it like that" knowing good and d-a-m-n well it's to pay your RENT!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;And to add insult to injury I think it is so ghetto that no other people who live here in America other than us consider OVERDRAFT PROTECTION as a part of their assets and budget! I can hear it now: "Don't worry baby, we'll make it through, I'll just let the overdraft protection take care of the groceries this week!" How low can we go?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;The sad legacy of mediocrity and failure continues!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;With all of the "Yak" hair that our women purchase as well as a few of our cross-dressing brothers, why can't we have a beauty supply store of our own? The Koreans have located a huge market and have built a veritable EMPIRE from something so unimportant while laughing all the way to the bank! Not only that, but Korean fish and fruit markets dot the landscapes of most Black neighborhoods here in America. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;And don't forget the Chinese food joints either. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Dang! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Can we at least cook for ourselves sometimes? Can we at least support our own fruit markets sometimes? Can we at least learn how to sew and do alterations on our OWN clothes sometime? Why are we so non productive? Let's write a new chapter and create a mighty legacy of brilliance!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Am I hating? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;NO! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;I am loving their progress! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;What I hate to see is that others are making progress on OUR failures and reluctance to take action in our own communities, it's not THEIR fault that they see a way to make money and are capitalizing on it. It's a natural law AND a right to do so!&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;To see this law being executed is very inspirational to me and I applaud those who lead the way no matter WHO they are! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;So when I hear a FOOL utter under their breath that foreigners are taking over, I see a person who will never get it. You see, envy and inspiration is the flip side of the same coin, if you are not inspired by the achievements of others, you are just damn jealous and the same energy spent to criticize the righteous efforts of others could be used to fuel yo' pork rind eatin',  Steel Reserve 211 'hoodjuice braincell killing cleaning solvent drinkin' behind into a legacy of high achievement, there is no neutrality here! It's either/or........don't let ANYONE tell you any different!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;We are now that bottom step stone that others use to secure their footing as they climb to the destiny of manifesting the limits of human potential! All the while allowing ourselves to be the court jesters of the world as the images of our lowly deterioration is broadcast the world over for the amusement of others! It's so funny, that when many who are used to such images see me or my friends enter a business establishment and speak with intelligence, confidence and a bit of charisma WITH proper etiquette, it's almost like they are seeing a GHOST!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt; Like a new model car that you never saw before! Like a person who was written of as a forever crackhead who now holds down a job, got married and looks healthier than you WITH all of his teeth, like a fat woman who got teased and is now the HOTTEST thing walking and takes joy in REFUSING the dates of the men who once ridiculed her. They are just not used to seeing such an image and it's a shame that the world is used to us in our lowest incarnation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;It's not only them who are used to it, it has become the acceptable norm for many of us. You don't turn on the television and see young Jewish shaking their backsides, HECK, I don't even THINK of even seen a Jewish chicks butt at the BEACH! They protect and HONOR the images and sacred positioning of their women! Do we? Well, I think that you know the answer! B*tches, H*es, Tr*cks and Hootchie-Mamas, when we hear these terms do you think of a women of any other race than us? Be honest now! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Our Black men are the complete antithesis of those strong Black men in slavery who endured the pain of captivity and strive for the rights and freedoms that these goons enjoy so freely now. Standing on the corner congregating with no plans for their lives with their pants hanging in a manner that is only excusable behind closed doors at home when one is sitting on the toilet in the bathroom when the phones rings and there is no one else at home to answer it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;We've ALL been affected by the legacy of mediocrity and failure but the good part is that we don't have to accept it.

I've said it before and I will say it again, we are made by the best, therefore we should be the best! And that is how every race should think as we ALL have something unique and valuable to add to the human family experience called the HUMAN RACE!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin at: LanceScurv@yahoo.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: arial;

I mean, we've been taught from birth to trust what we "see" for the most part, and I am not saying that we were taught to trust strangers. But eventually we begin to see through the unwise habit of freely trusting a situation after being burned a few times!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;We find out quick how the chameleons in the world have learned to to manipulate the outward appearances and use the instant trust that you've given up so easily as a deadly scam on your soon to be modified judgment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You have absolutely no way to judge on sight who may be sincere in their intentions or not. So in order to protect yourself, you have to adopt and develop certain ingrained automatic practices that will greatly reduce the chances of some wayward entity from manipulating their way into your inner circle and taking advantage of their new found proximity in your life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And what precautions can we take to make sure we don't get taken for a ride? Well since I am human just like you and therefore don't have the divine authority to preach, I'd rather share my perspective with you on a few points concerning this subject right off the top of my head randomly because there are so many different scenarios that it would be impossible to cover them all in the short space of this blog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;We can go a few ways with this, I could attack this subject from a spiritual perspective as I prefer to do and will in another blog but will focus on the downright straight basic commandments that a person of ANY background and culture or spiritual persuasion could understand. Why am I doing it this way today? Well, let's put it this way, if you had a really bad thunderstorm going on outside with dangerous lightning dropping, you wouldn't suggest at that time that your house guests take a nice long stroll outside to fly a kite high in the sky made with copper threads! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Danger is danger regardless to the fact that your guests may be a mixed group consisting of Muslims, Buddhists, Jews and Christians. Tell insist that they stay inside and not venture out is about as effective as the BEST prayer at that point! LOL! Understand where I'm coming from with this....?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Okay.......&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You do not have to be a victim from the meddling of others in your life if you do not want them to. Does anyone really WANT to be meddled with? I think not! But sometimes a person can enter your life in a seemingly innocent way only to be revealed down the road as a person who is nine months pregnant with a load of drama that they are about to drop on you 'cause they just went into labor!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So here are my personal commandments for making it hard for just about anyone who has committed within themselves to bringing the drama. I say make them WORK for it! LOL!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Guard Information On Your Movements &amp;amp; Whereabouts:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Never let a stranger and most of your acquaintances know your goings and comings 24/7. When they know your common path then they can lay in wait ON that path to do you in! I remember last November 2008, when my home was being scoped for a home invasion, a young lady continued over a period of weeks to knock on my door to ask for my step daughter who had always by this time left for school. This young lady acted as though she was a friend of my step daughter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; and only came by to offer her a ride to school. But it was obvious that if she was her friend she WOULD know her schedule at least! Especially if they were attending the SAME SCHOOL, wouldn't you think?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Well she always came by in a white pickup truck, the same pickup truck that had been parked outside all different times of the night and day forcing me to take a mental note of this. Anyway, one morning she came by again around 9:40 one Monday morning, she knocked and rang the bell as usual but THIS time I did NOT answer! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Deep down I knew what was about to go down, she knocked harder and harder, the bell rang more than I ever heard it ring before! She was trying to see if anyone was home. Who was I to disappoint her and break up the party by answering the door? I sat back and enjoyed the rhythmical drumbeat performed not only on my front door, but on the sides AND back doors after an unkempt gold tooth wearin' saggin pants (Does this barbaric manner of garb really SURPRISE you?) poorly kept dread having THUG exited the pickup truck to join her in the concert!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;My trap was set because I had the upper hand and was a step ahead of THEIR game! They banged the doors for the next 20 minutes, giving me the time to call the police, give a DETAILED description of these two, their approximate height, their approximate weight, what they wore, their vehicle as well as the OTHER young lady who sat in the getaway pickup truck outside! Dang! I might have had time for a day spa pedicure if I had so desired!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Well, I advised the authorities that they might want to step up their arrival time to my premises because if they took any longer, they would have to also bring an ambulance and body bags if these clowns broke inside with me here. They were warned. They broke the screen door lock and began to enter in the sun porch in the back, they checked the first sliding door to see if it was left ajar, then the second one. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;As they approached the third sliding glass door, I realized that my athletically socked feet would not allow me the traction for the potential scuffle at hand. So in quickly opening the garage door to retrieve my work boots, I inadvertently triggered the door chime which alerted my guests to the fact that someone was home and laying in wait for them. They swiftly took off and found themselves only two blocks away before being greeted happily by eight police vehicles! LOL! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;I went into detail to get to this point: These knuckleheads knew SO MUCH about me, my family, what we do and where we go! They revealed what they knew in an attempt to convince the police that they really were friends of ours and were just coming by for a visit! Yeah RIGHT! With 17 potential charges of OTHER home burglaries on record? I think not! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;As paranoid as I actually am, I thought I had my bases covered as far as moving about in the world in a discreet and covert manner but I was wrong. A hard pill to swallow indeed. This didn't have to be about coming to steal a few items, this could have been an attempt on my LIFE! So WATCH your movements. Keep them staggered. Watch who is around when you are discussing you private plans and business and STOP drawing unwanted attention to yourself! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Slip through the cracks and go unnoticed......... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Make sure when you leave your home that there is no one around to make a note of the times that you enter and exit. If so, remember who THEY are! I keep a small digital camera on my hip at ALL times and if I see anything suspicious, I will take a MOVIE while I drive by to go where I am going of this entity. It might be nothing, but if it turns out to BE something of note, then I am covered. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Sometimes it's a very healthy thing to tell EVERYONE that you know that you will be out of town overnight and park your car out of sight if you do not have an enclosed garage. Enjoy your new found peace of mind and don't answer your phone, cellphone nor go online! Keep 'em guessing! Even your trusted family can sabotage you if they can't keep a secret or talk a bit too loud in public about YOUR plans. So if there is something that you are doing that you DO NOT want to become public knowledge then TELL NO ONE BUT GOD!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Common Friends &amp;amp; Acquaintances, Know Who Talks To Who! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Friends may have good intentions and not want to bring you any harm but their loose lips will definitely sink your ship if THEY are not careful with YOUR business! Now the way to avoid this is to not tell them ANYTHING AT ALL! But we both know that it is literally impossible to live in this manner, you HAVE to tell somethings some of the time, so what's the next best thing to do? Know the GOSSIP CHAIN HIERARCHY! Know how the process works of who says what to who! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;This can be used in reverse to your benefit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; I remember when I was planning to move out of New York to here in the South and really did not feel to tell many of my two faced neighbors a damn thing about my move because they would have been trying to sabotage my efforts and probably would try to throw a rock in my plans for selling my house. You see, I will admit it now but I had a few illegal renovations done that would NOT have been approved (Therefore halting the sale of my house!) by the buildings inspector and I didn't feel like taking the time and spending the money on changing them especially when the few jealous neighbors would have made that phone call to the city to let them know that I have two illegal apartment on the premises. The buyer WANTED it the way it was, so no problem. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But I was smart enough to to be proactive in putting out the word by many of my neighbors acquaintances that I would be giving away the contents of my home to a younger cousin that lived out of state who was fresh out of college and just purchased a home! LOL! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So when I pulled up in the moving truck and emptied my furniture, these nosy neighbors didn't even ASK me what was going on because they felt they already knew! Not that they would have asked ME directly anyway, because I later found out after moving to Florida that they really wanted to see what new things that I was going to purchase for my home not knowing that it would be the last time that they would ever see me! I avoided the potential damage that gossip could have cause by stopping my home sale and gained some peace while moving away from the haters! KNOW THE GOSSIP CHAIN AND USE IT IN REVERSE!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Never React:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;This pretty much says it all in those two words! Never react! What do I mean? Well, you reveal so much of what you are all about and what you have inside by RE-acting to an external stimulus thrown at you to gauge your mindset. Many covert enemies will throw a statement or a word at you to see what you will say or how you react and what you do in RESPONSE to what they do will begin to give them the feedback to see what your mindset is.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;They may even dress up their covert attack to appear as though it is out of concern: "Is everything alright? I've noticed that you are dropping lots of weight, we both know that you have been working hard, do you need me to loan you any money?" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;IT'S A TRAP! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;The person making the statement doesn't care about you! They don't even want to LOAN you any money! They spoke of you losing weight, working hard and your possible need for money. They threw several things at you at once hoping to confuse you into reacting to what they said so you can give an indication into the happenings of  your personal life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; The wrong answer would be: Yes, I have been losing weight from working all of this overtime since my husband lost his job last month, I wouldn't mind a loan right now but he would get very angry with me if I took money from you, you know, it's a manhood thing!" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;NOW! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;The person asking those questions just hit pay dirt because you didn't understand what the goal was in "appearing" as a good person and acting so concerned! Not only that, if she is the gossipy type, she will spread it all over and add something to it that you never even said. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Now here would be HER version of your statement that she would spread while quickly getting on the cellphone after leaving your side: "Girl, there is TROUBLE in paradise! I just spoke to "so and so"(Insert your name!) and she told me that her husband cussed her out and said that she better get out there and work TWICE as hard to make up for what he wasn't getting from the job that he just lost! So she is looking so haggard, gaunt and withered from all that forced overtime while he sits at home threatening her by saying that she better not make him look bad by taking any handouts from your friends! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;The proper way to answer would be to keep your response as vague, open ended and as brief as possible. Even admitting to some of the things that she mentioned in her statement but shifting the blame and reason FOR those conditions. And while I am not telling you to lie, I AM telling you to severely bend the truth now proactively to offset the drama that can manifest down the road in time if you handle it with a bit more awareness! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;The proper answer might be: Yes my friend, I have been losing some weight and HAVE been doing lots of overtime, but I really want to help my mother's church reach its building fund goals before years end and I feel that this is the right thing to do. Would you like to join me and maybe make a donation since you offered to help?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; I am so blessed to have such a concerned individual in my life such as yourself!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;By shrewdly answering in this manner, you have put your snake on her defenses, you didn't reveal your true reasons for working the overtime. You made yourself look good by having such a noble goal, and you didn't share any specific information about the inner workings of your household and the fact that your husband lost his job. This snitch is on their defenses because the money that they were so eager to loan doesn't exist now (Not that it existed a few moments ago either! LOL!) as they are quickly trying to find a way OUT of giving up that previously offered loan because they won't have any advantage over you in giving it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Always think before you RE-act, never be steered or railroaded into revealing ANYTHING that you don't want to share with ANYONE! It's YOUR business and NO ONE has the right to be all up in it unless you CHOOSE for them to be!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;This blog got so good to me that I didn't want to end it prematurely, come back later tonight to see the completed version.

Divorce rates have skyrocketed and continue to baffle the imagination as it seems like every week on the television, another Hollywood couple is parting ways in a nasty breakup on their way to the divorce court.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And if that shocking scenario is not playing out dominating the airways, there is always some sports figure who got caught in an affair just as well as a politician who was found to have a mistress or even liked men on the down low! Just when you think things have died down, here comes another one so spectacular it surpasses the twisted drama of the prior media spectacle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;If the relationship or connection at home was the way it should have been, these things would never happen! No! I am not blaming YOU woman, what I am saying is that your man is not honest about his deepest desires with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Most times the poor woman at home has nothing to do with it at all, but there are a good amount of times that she might. Who knows what the statistics are in that regard, right now I am focused on the male side of the equation although we all know some ladies who can be just as bad or even WORSE than the most seasoned of male predatory philanderers!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But in ALL cases, there is something that is not being communicated at home here that needs to come out! Can you make adjustments to keep things together when he reveals his deepest needs, desires and fetishes?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Another point that I must interject is that many times when a man cheats physically or mentally, it isn't always because he isn't being "fed" at home, the wife might be doing a SPECTACULAR job of rocking his world! It may be the old &lt;span id="lw_1250880123_0" class="yshortcuts"&gt;midlife crisis issue&lt;/span&gt;, a low self esteem thing or possibly a way to offset the feeling of depression from the loss of a loved one. It could be anything on these levels!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But one thing is for sure, there is NO EXCUSE for a man to go out and seek the forbidden pleasures of another woman when he has a willing wife at home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Yes, I said WILLING!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;'Cause some of y'all seem like you WANT your man to cheat by acting as though he lost his MIND when he sheepishly makes a lusty gesture towards you, and when you find that he has been dippin' on the side with that church sister who is always shakin' her well rounded fat rump when she gets in the spirit in the aisle in front of you at the Wednesday night service,  you want to cry and act a fool!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And although you KNOW that you are MUCH more attractive than she could ever hope to be in her wildest dreams, you have found out the hard way that GOOD LOOKS have nothing to do with it when it comes to a horny man when that thing of his gets hard! See, while you may look better, your man is fiending on how to get over there to HER bedroom! This is a harsh realization but for many it is a sad reality none the less!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So if cross-eyed snaggle tooth slewfoot Betty down the block has an well known oral fixation that needs a constant and steady stream of attention then guess what? She will be responsible for a whole LOT of broken zippers on trousers that need repairing in the neighborhood!. Just make sure YOUR man doesn't have to consider this grimey low down but very much real and popular option!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But again let me say that my focus in this blog is not about the men who cheat physically but those who stray mentally, which is just as damaging. I only went through that ramble in the prior paragraph because I feel somewhat like a comedian today and wanted to give you a break from my ultra serious side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;A good laugh is healthy for the soul now isn't it? Lol!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And I'm just trying to give you all a funny conversation starter for the weekend! I can hear it now: "Girl! I ran across this dude Scurv online and the stuff he says is off da' CHAIN............! Lol!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Now let's talk some logic. If most men would cheat physically if given the opportunity, and if action follows thought, then if the majority of men who have cheated have fallen weak after constant thoughts of indulging with another.  So chances are that even the men who NEVER cheated on their spouse might have had it cross their mind!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;There are those men who are comfortable just fantasizing and flirting but never acting on it. They most often also refuse the women who offers an outside rendezvous if the opportunity presented itself, but this category of men are common and do exist! Is your man one of them?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Strip joints, Titty bars,  Peep shows, Phone sex lines, Camming on the computer.........there are many outlets for this type of man to get his erotic mental groove on and say in the back of his mind that he didn't cheat because he wasn't ACTUALLY with another woman. But if he felt there wasn't anything wrong with it then why does he move about into this activity in a secretive manner?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You never hear a man say to his wife: "Honey, I discovered this really nice Topless Bar down in the warehouse district the other night when I was driving around looking at the half naked prostitutes after I got off from work late, looks like a great place to grab a few drinks and get horny looking at some strange tits! Wanna come with me?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You will NEVER hear that! Unless you both are swingers or have an open relationship! But if you as a man even THINK you can repeat something like that to a sister then first make sure that there are know sharp objects in the room that she can grab and DO call the ambulance about &lt;span id="lw_1250880123_1" class="yshortcuts"&gt;20 minutes&lt;/span&gt; before you attempt to foolishly utter those last words!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just don't see the joy in going to a titty bar intoxicated to stare at some strange woman's breasts while parting with my hard earned cash!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe I'm a strange dude or something but some accepted male ritualistic herd mentality indulgences seem to be a complete waste of time!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is it that SOME men walk around with a prefabricated template of what they enjoy intimately &amp;amp; inflict their lusts on their poor woman?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Its not about what they BOTH enjoy in their explorations but what daunting tasks he wants HER to do whether shes comfortable with it or not!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;He's not thinking about you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Then he will get angry after a crude barbaric requests were refused and uses this rejection as a justification to roam the earth aroused in search of carnal relief!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;He's REALLY not thinking about you! You need to discreetly follow him out sometimes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;These cavemen arrive home to their innocent and unsuspecting mates only to use them like sperm receptacles in reaction to what aroused them abroad!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;He ain't thinking about you! Stop being in denial!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And here she is happily thinking that he's passionate for her only while the stray image in his mind is the driving force in his Viagra induced super charged libido!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;He ain't thinkin' about you!

You better wake up!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;For years many couples like this are together physically but in reality dwell in totally different worlds and haven't the slightest clue of their lack of a real connection!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;How sad indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And the tired old charade continues undetected as the decades roll by.........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But every now and then we come home to turn on the local evening news and find yet another husband decapitated, castrated or killed by their wife and the neighbors, wondering how this tragedy occurred, almost always act as though something like that could never happen in THEIR neighborhood. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But yes!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; It will happen again and again not only in your neighborhood but mine too! Because every smiling couple that you see in the mall, the store, by the red light in the car next to you, at church, down the block and at the doctors office because these types of unions are EVERYWHERE! And although it might not ever end up in a fatal tragedy once the truth is found out, it all could have been avoided if there was TRUE communication and constant status checks as the relationship developed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;I would love to hear your feelings on this issue and hope you enjoyed the blog and had a laugh!

And even if it may appear that there are any apparent weaknesses present in your defense, they must have great patience to lay in waiting for the perfect opportunity to take advantage of a strategic mistake or judgment on your part.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Could you imagine the steady level of pressure that you must live under when you realize that your enemy is sworn by duty to kill you, as well as having to endure through the amplified tensions as your every minute of life is on Code Red High Alert.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You watch your comrades fall one by one and you wonder if it will be your time next to be attacked. You wonder when it will end because the minute you feel as though your enemy is on the retreat, he seems to come back stronger armed with with a more potent weapon that is designed especially for you to bring you to a guaranteed defeat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you are probably thinking that those men and women who serve in the military really don't have it easy at all when they are locked in the unenviable position of combat. Yes, they do have one of the toughest tasks in the entire world but in actuality I really wasn't referring to our &lt;span id="lw_1250785601_0" class="yshortcuts" style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;"&gt;men and women in uniform&lt;/span&gt;, I was speaking of all of us who have commited to living a life of righteousness and are in battle with the evil forces of this world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, we who may not be on the actual physical battlefield of the wars of men are STILL locked in battle with the unseen forces of the dark netherworld of hell itself! And while we mourn our fallen troops as they become &lt;span id="lw_1250785601_1" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); cursor: pointer;"&gt;casualties of war&lt;/span&gt;, if their souls were saved then all has not been lost from their short stay here on this twisted planet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But those of us who feel that we have it so easy must realize that even if we do not have to live under the threat of a physical attack from our enemy that will result in a physical death, we must live under constant spiritual attacks which will damn us to an eternal suffering which in my opinion is even MORE tragic than anything one can suffer temporarily in the physical battles in the wars of men!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;The moment you commit to living a clean life, the designated forces will get hard to work to bring you back into a space where you fall back into the former life of wayward activity. Have you ever noticed at times of renewed conviction that almost magically out of the clear blue sky that a an almost irresistable sinful proposition appears for your total indulgence? Why do you think this is so? In my experiences the timing was just too uncanny to have happened by chance, because this was always the case when I found myself aspiring to a higher level of existence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;The only remedy for this trap is constant prayer, the diligent execution of righteous activities that soak up any idle time that one may have which could land you down a path that you will later regret, and a conscious resistance to the temptations that are placed in your path.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You cannot abandon your quest for a clean life even if you were to slip and fall because satan loves to capture your mind and make the divine realities hoped for seem like something that is unattainable! DON'T BELIEVE THIS EVEN FOR A MOMENT! If he can stop the positive thoughts from flowing, then he has in essence defeated you before you even had a chance to move forward into your happy destiny. What many of us don't realize is that everything that we see in the world is the product of a thought. Whether it be big or small, the thought that brought the material creation into fruition at one time were quite fragile at some point and could have been discouraged easily. But it also took a special kind of perseverance held onto in strong fashion by the possessor of that thought to endure the mistakes and failures of that dream along the way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So when making the pledge to aggressively move toward a life that will be pleasing to God's eyes, just brace yourself for an attack that is guaranteed to transpire immediately to thwart your efforts. If you are attempting to clean up your diet in order to improve your overall health and quality of life, then expect great culinary temptation from being invited to dinner or even a few cookouts within the next week.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are attempting to turn away from a gambling problem that has been for years a thorn in your side, a major negative issue in your marriage and a hindrance to your ability to budget your finances effectively then look for the conditions to cause you to struggle in the form of some free time on your hands when your wife is out of town for the weekend and the mortgage money staring you in the face while your old gambling buddy's call for you to hang out with them!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have a problem staying faithful to your wife by keeping away from the women, the moment you commit to never straying again is the moment that someone constructed in a manner that is so intoxicating to your lower desires that you might find yourself saying: "Just this one last time, after this I will stop!" Then the thought of stopping your indulgences vanish as you not only roll the dice on your salvation, but you gamble with your health and relationship at home which could land you homeless in the streets because with the strong possibility of eventually getting discovered, you will lose your home, your stability and peace of mind! If you are acquainted with any of my other blogs you will understand that stray booty is a drug just as addictive as crack from which in most cases there is no rehab! So leave it ALONE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;As satan's time runs out to rule he will intensify ALL means to bring you to your knees not in prayer but in death and defeat! We must understand that the pleasures of this world are fleeting at best and is not a fair trade off for an eternity in hell! Although on this level we cannot even begin to conceptualize the righteous pleasures of an eternity with our Creator, the one thing that is certain is that what we go crazy for down here on this earth PALES in comparison to what awaits us on that level if we can just hold on to our salvation here in this life!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So understand that when something comes your way that appeals to what you are attempting to get away from and is "to good to be true", IT IS! It is a Trojan Horse of an attack that will have you slipping to a lower plane than you left in the first place making it even more difficult to gain a footing to climb back to your prior positioning. It is NOT worth it so hold on! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;If you THINK that you have experienced major trials and tribulations in this lifetime do know  that you will put yourself in the demonic cross hairs of a satanic weapon designed to make you lose your eternal salvation in a foolish moment of weakness........... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;This constant saturation into the mindset of spirituality laid a base from which I viewed the world around me, it actually wasn't the church services that I attended, not to say that they didn't have any value to my development, they did, but the hands on real nitty gritty nuts and bolts knowledge that I gained from eavesdropping in on their nutritionally "rich for the soul" conversations did more for me than "living in the church" may have done for others.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;My mother always told me that I had the ability to discern the spirits of those around me, later on in life I found this to be true. At times it would seem as though I could just look at you and "know" what your intentions are toward me. I wouldn't know exactly all the time what they were because I had to be spiritually "tuned up" within myself, but pretty much after spending some time around an entity that I didn't know personally, I would catch their rhythms and be enabled to proactively thwart their preplanned negativity or allow their good intentions to flow into my life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;In this life I have found myself sometimes in a few pretty foolish situations that did not reflect the centered, wise and intelligent person that many felt me to be. When you are living in this world with so many invisible forces vying for your precious energy, it is very easy to make one misjudgment and slip down a cavern that seems to be a bottomless hole of punishment for those mistakes executed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;After always seeming to land on my feet, finally I realized that it wasn't because of any ability that I possessed or any amount of strength that could muster that got me out of certain situations but the force of the Creator had a purpose for my life energies that others just couldn't walk on in like an open buffet and usurp!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;After understanding that my life really isn't just my own, I began to reflect deeper on what my purpose was and move toward it. Many in my life who were within earshot to hear what my aspirations were doubted my plans and began to ridicule the lane that I created for myself online with my expressions. But this was a beautiful time that continues right up until this day, because I am constantly honing my skills and demanding a higher level of productivity out of myself, knowing that I have something higher behind me to back my efforts up!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Others will not understand, because they are believing in something that is unseen to them as most only go by what IS seen to the eye in the natural world. They miss so much of what this life is all about because they walk only in the physical plane. They will not see what you see, they will not know what you "just know", they have spent the years in the church and feel that they have accumulated some kind of holiness that comes from "punching" an imaginary church clock for the Lord so you can't be blessed with certain gifts that may surpass their positioning just walking in the door out of the street!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;How DARE he walk with confidence! He doesn't HAVE what I have! How dare he speak the way he does, I have a college degree and he is merely on a high school level at BEST! He doesn't have the inside secret connections that I do, so how does he think that he can make it without going through ME! Many will feel that you must walk the same long road that they did in order to take possession of the few little trinkets that they give up so much to say they own.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But understand when you discover your true divine purpose, you will walk to the beat of a different drummer and be considered very odd to most of the "herded cattle" who live everyday in great frustration because they have traded in their unlimited bliss potential for a spiritually void, predictable existence drained of joy! So do you think they will be happy with you who seem to possess an independent generator of vast happiness and bliss? Either you are ACTING like you are happy or you must truly be crazy!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Even when they KNOW you are going through something that might crush them, they look for indications of the pain within the manner in which you carry yourself and are roused to great anger when they see that your happiness has even INCREASED as the so-called stresses roll in on you! The situations that STAB them and cut them deeply might affect you no more than a mosquito bite if you am connected to that generator of vast happiness from Gods Throne!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;It's like not having a "visible to others" penny in your pocket, being hungry without a lunch bag full of food to eat, and having tattered clothes on that needs to be changed badly while being hundreds of miles away from home........BUT! While this may appear to be the case you in fact KNOW that you have a divine ATM card that has unlimited funds attached to it. So while your haters don't see a penny in your pocket, they didn't notice the card! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And while they just KNOW you MUST be hungry, they DON'T know that your hunger doesn't sting at all because that SAME CARD will cover the cost of sitting down to eat at the finest of restaurants that the city has to offer! And as far as those tattered clothes go? YOU KNEW IT, the fancy mall down the block will gladly accept payment with it on a complete new wardrobe! "God's ATM Card - Don't Leave Home Without It!" LOL!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You ever see that little old lady who walks through the 'hood late at night from her job on the late shift at the hospital? If you ever wonder why she doesn't look scared while confidently walking past the "looking to rob somebody" thugs on the corner and through the dark streets on her way home at night, walk up on her real fast like you intend to do her harm and you just might find out WHY she always walks those streets like she is not scared of anyone as you feel the lead burning in your body while you cry out for help 'cause you just got shot! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;This is one of the laws of the 'hood! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You don't underestimate what ANYONE might have on them! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;I don't care WHO they are! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So while I am not advocating that we shoot anyone ( Don't shoot anyone if they mean you no harm, but by all means defend yourself so that you can walk away from any threatening situation unscathed even if it MEANS shooting the b-a-s-t-a-r-d!), I merely used this analogy to display the fact that while you may think you know an individuals limitations, you just can't tell because you don't know what they are carrying in their heart spiritually!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You have NO CHOICE but to walk the planet in this confident manner when you know the TRUTH! Trust me, you won't EVER know the truth from those who wallow in negativity! You won't ever feel a strong jolt of inspiration and motivation from those who are disconnected from righteousness but continue to bathe in  the same old waste water of sin that we who are striving for better have washed ourselves from! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You CANNOT hang out with contaminated people and expect to walk away without a trace of their contamination! It's bad enough that we must take years to detoxify ourselves from the filthy indoctrinations of this world that the powers that be deem wholesome. You don't need to undo the little good that you are doing with you life by going back to the bad things of your recent past.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;This is why we all need to sharpen our ability to discern those tainted characters around us. To sharpen our skills in this area we have got to often pull away from our earthly desires and cravings for a time until we bring them under control. Now don't get me wrong, it is not only imperative to back away from the world in order to see the true intentions of OTHERS around you, but it equally as important to be able to see what YOUR intentions are to yourself and others. It works both ways...... You see, it is our lusts on this level of existence that blind our higher eye from seeing what is truly there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You my Brother, as the manager of a McDonald's wouldn't allow the stinky homeless man inside to use the restroom to freshen up five minutes before the store actually closed last Tuesday but you gladly allowed that long legged sexy woman who had on that short tight miniskirt and bursting cleavage to enter the store last night to go to the ladies room because it "was an emergency."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;What made the difference between the homeless dude and the sexy chick? You better DISCERN &amp;amp; decontaminate your spirit Brother!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Now YOU my Sister, know that the wife of that very muscular handsome man who lives across the street works the graveyard shift every wednesday night, the very night everyone puts out their garbage for the thursday trash pickup. You know he usually works on his car as a hobby well into the wee hours while leaving his garage door opened, you often find your eyes glued to his sweaty chiseled torso discreetly (With the lights off of course!) through the venetian blinds in your living room window for literally hours on end................... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You now find your well moistened self dressed boldly in only a short flimsy tee shirt and panties while you drag the garbage can scraping loudly, making SO much noise across the concrete of your driveway as if it is too heavy for you to handle just HOPING he would fall to your seductive trap to offer his much desired assistance. He looks up to notice your "struggle" and at that very moment some trash "manages" to fall to the ground so you decide to BEND OVER to pick it up giving him a deliciously full view of your female adornments as he quickly (Probably running and setting a new Olympic record! LOL!) crosses the street to come and assist you.......... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Why couldn't you have taken out your garbage early just like all of your other neighbors did? Why did you want to wait until you knew that man's wife wouldn't be home? You better DISCERN &amp;amp; decontaminate your spirit Sister!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So again, it works both ways! And while I can go on all night with different examples, I believe you get the point. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So understand that in this life and in this world we constantly have all types of forces and entities coming at us for many different reasons good and bad. Left alone under our own powers we are not equipped to sort through every interaction seen and unseen, known and unknown that comes our way. Left alone we are actually powerless so don't fool yourself, utilize your downtime to reconnect yourself with the Divine one so you will have the necessary protection to walk about this hostile environment with the confidence of an old lady who just cashed her check after work walking through the 'hood late at night strapped down with her loaded Glock! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

I was never the kind of person who enjoyed working the night shift in a hot sweaty warehouse interacting with the same scandalous people day after day, year in year out. The thought of living that ultra structured reality definitely does NOT get my juices flowing, a fresh turnover of unpredictable human interaction is what I have enjoyed in my various positions of employment!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now it's from that vast buffet of experiences that I've enjoyed that has allowed me to have tasted a very broad cross section of people from all ages, backgrounds, races, countries, cultures and pedigree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In that light I started out having a deep understanding about what diversity was all about at a young age, because with a father who owned his own business in my hometown of New York City, I had no choice but to venture into the vast array of culturally rich places that such a huge city had to offer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This exposure so many different types of people has afforded me the luxury of knowing the many cultures on a more intimate level than most. And if I had to say just one thing about the human spirit overall from that cross section of people, is that the majority of &lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1250583074_0"&gt;human beings&lt;/span&gt; want better for themselves. The majority of human beings want better for their offspring than THEY had it coming up. The majority can understand that they will not live forever and want to leave this planet better off than when they came into it. The majority of humans are willing to EARN what they desire to possess because they are anxious to work HARD for it until their dreams manifest!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I believe you all know how proud I am to BE who I am in the PACKAGING that God created me in. This is how all Gods children should feel about themselves and it shouldn't ever be considered wrong to love yourself or your culture as long as you don't feel down about how you were fashioned. That being said, one shouldn't exalt themselves over the other members of the human family based on the color of their skin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you understand what I mean when I, like many others reading this say, that I am proud to be Black and an important link in the total human experience. Now when you have a divine balance and pride in the manner in which God created you, you find yourself striving for the higher levels of consciousness and existence. Mind, body and spirit! You can't have one without the other. So this leads me to ask the question: "What happened to us as a people in comparison to the rest of human family?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I won't go on about the effects of 400 plus years of slavery or how being stripped of our name, language culture and God has us turned upside down and inside out into a  morphed ignorant people, no, I won't say that this time in this blog. I won't say it because we know it all so well, most of us know it SO well that it becomes a convenient excuse when it comes time to play the blame game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But what is our excuse for our condition now that we have access to ALL of the tools for self improvement? Can we now say that it will get us killed if we are caught reading a book? HELL! We reject the regular ingestion of useful information so much that we often refuse to read the instructions on a mere box of spaghetti!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Notice that I said USEFUL information, we have to understand that finding out that Shanaynay's Baby Daddy got caught by the Feds yesterday for running guns over the state line is NOT the type of information that will make you competitive in the world's job market today!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We now have the absolute greatest invention in history to self educate without as much as having to leave your home! What's that you say? A computer with an internet connection! Armed with this very affordable technology, one doesn't even have to physically go to the library anymore, you just do a search on any type of information that you crave and it appears right in front of your very eyes updated in LIVE time!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I find to be very ironic and amusing is that the reason why most even GO to the library now is only for the use of the computers there, because of maybe not having one at home! What a strange twist of what is considered normal. You couldn't have EVER imagined this type of scenario 25 years ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But we as Black people, now with the technological advances of the world, have absolutely NO excuse to be educationally deficient! Especially when an individual can attain a college education and degree right in the comfort of their own home! You don't have to worry about driving to the school. You don't have to be concerned with the weather conditions for the day 'cause you AIN'T leavin' the house, and you can take many of the exams when YOU want to!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This tells me that we WANT to be stupid! Yes! STUPID! That word was created for a reason and we have stepped up to the plate to become the living manifestation of the word like it's our new religion! Whatever proper English is, we refuse to speak it! Our younger generation speaks as though they have cotton in there mouth as well as something else that I won't mention in order to maintain the family friendly flavor of this blog! Lol!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And for those of us who DO have the internet at home, can we be honest and admit that we are not using it to its full potential. Maybe you who are reading these words are using it properly, but can we vouch for most others in our communities where the illiteracy rates are skyrocketing even WITH such a wonderful tool called the internet at home? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;At the rate that a young mind can absorb knowledge, we should be developing geniuses at alarming rates! Yet OUR children are at the bottom of the ratings time and time again. Where at one time in history we were the leaders in the WORLD in every form of mastery! The Builders. The Philosophers. The Sciences. The great mysteries were KNOWN by us but now it's a mystery that we don't even know ourselves anymore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;We, Black people in America, in general are THE most uninformed and unprepared people on the face of the planet! How foolish we look to the world grinding and humping as though this is the ONLY skill that we have to offer! Our young girls can be QUICK to tell our young men how they can "rock" their world but ain't doing a damn thing to CHANGE their world except to start crying when they find out that they are having another baby! Many of our men want to call themselves "hustlers" but don't even know their own social security number or even how to string together a legible sentence on paper without misspelling most of the words!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;We are the first to get mad and say: "I didn't know that and nobody TOLD me!", but if you realized that it is NO ONE'S job to tell you about anything and if you would tear yourself away from Black Enslavement Television (BET) for just two hours a day to read a book, you MIGHT just learn something to navigate these hostile waters of the world when the going gets rough!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;You turned your nose up to that minimum wage job that the Pakistani man with the funny last name of "Patel" took in a heartbeat when he first hit these shores twenty years ago as he went to school, now you are going to HIM when it's time to go to the hospital, HE is the doctor getting PAID! And here you are filling out a form to get free government services to pay HIM so he can go the affluent side of town when he goes home to talk about your stupid black behind!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;You never took the time to inform yourself on what it would take to get a better life. You thought that the little block that you lived on would last forever! Your "boys" are now dead or in jail and the few that had any sense moved far away from that downtrodden existence and are doing well. You now find yourself thinking more and more about the good old days because you have nothing within to propel you to an even brighter future!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;You wouldn't HAVE to go to the Payday Advance joint to get money if you were informed on the basics of budgeting! You wouldn't WASTE your money at the Fried Chicken spot, the Korea fish joint or the greasy ghetto Chinese food takeout joint everyday if you understood that you could realize massive savings and eat much more healthier if you were informed on the art of homemaking!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;You wouldn't have to spend so much money on high blood pressure medicine if you only took out that gym membership a few years ago but told everyone that you didn't have the time to sit up in some damn hot a-s-s gym working out! But isn't it funny, now you fear for your life with dizziness and chest pains as you sit up in a hot a-s-s waiting room all night for ENDLESS HOURS when your pressure medicine doesn't work!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:larger;"  &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;If you were informed on the benefits of proper eating, nutrition and exercise, the Chinese and Korean joint would be embalming you with grease and you would be looking good somewhere enjoying your life with even MORE energy and sportin' the SAME waistline that you had in high school! Remember how arrogant and condescending you use to talk to the Chinese man behind the counter while you receive your food order while feeling on top of the world strutting around 'cause you just got your piece of welfare check?  "Hey China man! This thigh ain't fried enough, cook it some mo' and leave it in the oil longer!" Thoughts of your ghetto minded ignorant utterances HAVE to haunt you now while you gasp for air three in the morning.............. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Dr. Patel is REALLY going to buy a nice new Benz with CASH now after you make him rich because of your self clogged arteries!  Remember y'all used to laugh at him when he wore that funny high waters and skips on his way to that low paying night job that YOU didn't want to take? Bet you wish you hung with him now! Dr. Patel worked it while going to school to LEARN something better while you judged him on his outer appearance. He is a well paid doctor and Shanaynay's Baby Daddy (Your boy) is STILL doing time in the Federal Prison. Now THAT'S a O.G. Hustler move! LOL!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;We are the best dressed, best hairstyle wearing, shiniest nail sportin', spinning rims having STUPIDEST FOOLS that ever walk the face of the planet! We are a tremendous resource for every other race to make big money off of us except our own d-a-m-n selves. Others can come into our neighborhoods and thrive greatly off of foolish sounding businesses that you will not find in any other community! And they all capitalized on our lack of being informed!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;So the next time you think about spending that "gubment" check on a fresh outfit and gold anklet for the club that night, think about how being ill informed got half of the men in your community wearing a prison outfit and ankle chains for Club Lockdown spending lots of time in a party that they have no choice BUT to attend for the next few years! Barnes&amp;amp; Noble, Books-A-Million &amp;amp; Borders don't seem at all so bad now a place to go hang out when you really come to think of it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Come back later for the new topic and please share my blogs with your friends! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin at: LanceScurv@yahoo.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"&gt;Or Text Message/Call: 407 590 0755&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"&gt;www.Youtube.com/ScurvOriginalz&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"&gt;www.Twitter.com/LanceScurv&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;www.ScurvOriginalz.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin direct at LanceScurv@yahoo.com or call/text 24/7 at 407-590-0755.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8407458295132219322-6481558637877506923?l=www.lancescurvin.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/LanceScurv/~4/lN4T_zmjJOg" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.lancescurvin.com/feeds/6481558637877506923/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8407458295132219322&amp;postID=6481558637877506923&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/6481558637877506923" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/6481558637877506923" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LanceScurv/~3/lN4T_zmjJOg/my-black-people-will-suffer-from-lack.html" title="&quot;My Black People Will Suffer From Lack Of Knowledge!&quot;" /><author><name>Lance Scurvin, mastermind behind the ScurvOriginalz.com website.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12247523572965782180</uri><email>LanceScurv@yahoo.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="09831926459292562140" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/Sop4rHdZNiI/AAAAAAAAAGk/cRURKYPxEwU/s72-c/black-boy-school1.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.lancescurvin.com/2009/08/my-black-people-will-suffer-from-lack.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8407458295132219322.post-7053501198191656752</id><published>2009-08-17T01:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-18T02:49:45.869-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Lance" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Amerikkkas Most Outspoken Artist" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Lance Scurvin" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Scurv" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="ScurvOriginalz" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Scurvin" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="LET IT GO" /><title type="text">Enjoy Those Last Delicious Bites Of Your Favorite Dish, But  By All Means, After The Meal Is Over Please Go To The Restroom &amp;

font-family: arial;font-family:georgia;font-size:100%;"  &gt;I was speaking with a close friend of mine the other day and he reflected back to me many of the different ups and downs in my life that I have endured and survived, he gasped in awe and said that he doesn't know how I came through so much to maintain my sanity and not to have lost my mind!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;After listening to my trusted comrade meticulously go through every phase of my life with the pin point accuracy of someone who must have somehow memorized my personal diary, it dawned on me at that moment that I HAD overcome some very steep challenges and endured the most trying times imaginable!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;And on the other hand I believe even at THIS point in my journey, that I've probably had so much more of a HUGE portion of my alloted quota of gut busting laughs, adventures and good times more so than many of my peers, in fact, it's not something that I believe, it's something that I KNOW!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;All in all everything in this life will balance out, but we must understand that by coming into this mysterious and wonderful world, there will be many lessons that we must learn during our time here regardless as to how long or short it will be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;One of the lessons that I've learned is that there is a goodness to even the bad times in your life, and at the time you are going through the fire of that time period, it may not feel very pleasant but rest assured you will walk away from the experience wiser, stronger and possess a foresight that will help you to avoid that same situation again if it happened to be something brought on in your life by a poor choice or bad decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Even if it's something that was brought on by NOTHING that you caused as far as a decision or choice, you will still gain great maturity by having to face and endure that pain. We never really know at the time WHY things are allowed to happen but we have to know that everything happens for one reason or another! The maturity gained will be like an invisible resume in the trials and tribulations in life! And the funny thing is that what I've found is that when you JUST meet someone who has gone through so much also, you don't have to explain away every experience that you both had to go through, you both just "know" and your conversation will go to a higher level without having to name out the specifics of how you gained your mutual wisdoms!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Many instances during and after that particular travesty suffered we find ourselves questioning as anyone would why it was allowed to happen to us when it did. The answer to that question most often never gets realized until sometimes YEARS after the tragic incident. This is why we have to learn to let go, we cannot hold onto a particular incident until we get an answer because that enlightenment may not arrive for years!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;So what are you going to do? Refuse to move on because we didn't receive a ready made answer instantly? What happens when another life changing event transpires in our life? Can we put that on hold until we get the answer to the first one?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;I have found that the only way to be able to multitask emotionally is to clear your mind of it and let it go! Do I mean forget about it? No! Just let it go! What I mean by letting it go is that you must do all you can to heal and bring closure to that situation but when you find that it is not happening as you thought it would, just let it all go to the Creator of all things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Isn't it so natural to savor the memory of a great meal at your favorite restaurant or special home cooking by that cherished family member? Ain't nothing wrong with that right? RIGHT! That's a GOOD thing! But, if you try to hold on to the actual meal in your stomach without letting it go, then you will reabsorb what is waste and begin to make yourself very sick! A good thing turned bad because you just couldn't let it go. Some of us need emotional Ex-Lax wouldn't you agree?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;We drive through an old neighborhood and get reminded of a person who did us wrong who doesn't even LIVE THERE ANYMORE but you still get fuming mad at the memory, you need to take an emotional DODO if this is the case, because if you hold on to it and don't LET IT GO, it will back up in your system emotionally and make you sick! Reabsorbing something long gone that should have been released! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;And like food, the longer it takes for you to release it and let it go, the more the situation WILL STINK!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Old relationships that have gone sour should be remembered for the good times and growth opportunities that it gave you, you might have outgrown the situation or maybe it was time to move on. But none the less, like that good meal where you savored every enjoyable bite, there was a time for the union to end and we have to know when it is the proper time to get up from that particular table before the meal turns bad. But many of us like that greedy fat man with the big tee shirt on hanging out of his pants and over his belly to conceal how fat his gut is, we make a fool of our self trying to "get in one more plate" at the all you can eat buffet when it's obvious that the staff is signaling that it is time to close the restaurant. While we in our denial of a bad situation hold on too long when it's painfully obvious to all who are in our midst that it is time to release it and let it go. And most times if we DO have a friend to tell us the truth that we usually already know, we chew THEIR head off because we refuse to see the obvious!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Now I know it may not be as easy a I make it seem, but I do speak from great experience and I do know that it works. Leaving your troubles to God to me is the ONLY way to get through this obstacle course called life. Because if you think that you are going to make it to the next level without being tested then think again! The trick is that while one should definitely be concerned about their life and all that goes on in it, realize that concern and worry are two different things with two different types of energies that bring different results to a situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Concern is controlled, concern is effective, concern is needed and gets the job done as much as the situation possibly allows. Worry? Worry is out of control, ineffective in helping an incident to improve and if doesn't do anything it will actually make your situation WORSE! Once you leave out of the realm of concern into worry then don't expect to feel much better from within. Once you leave concern into worry you have then opened the floodgates for the devil's weaponry of FEAR to enter your mind! Now we all know (Or at least I hope you know!) that fear did not come from God, so when you begin to fear a situation and worry out of control, you are telling the Creator that you really do not have much faith in the promised word that He has given us! These two minds can't occupy the same vessel simultaneously! How can you be a warrior for your Lord and be a PUNK (Or Punkette! LOL!) on the battlefield in this world? Let go of the fear and let God take care of it all! Just do what you KNOW to do is right from within and his word and it will be alright! It's really very simple!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;I speak from experience because ever since my Mother passed on in '94, my life has very much been a likely candidate to be featured on the "E" True Hollywood Story series (And you KNOW if you are showcased on that show that it's NOT a good thing!) if I were a celebrity, YOU DON'T KNOW THE HALF OF IT! But even while the haters and attention freaks compete to gain some type of misguided and delusional cheap "win" at my expense, God has blessed me with a peace of mind that I truly have never ever experienced before!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Why?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;All because I have truly learned even more than before to LET GO! This life is TOO short and my Creator has blessed me so much with the ability to communicate concepts, ideas and feelings to the world in such a clear manner with my art and writing without as much as a high school diploma! I prayed to allow for my creative output to increase and it has! My writing has been flowing everyday and my art is coming like there is NO tomorrow! It ain't me, that's you know who! I don't have the precious TIME to focus on those who cannot even keep up with me because of the DIVINE FORCE that truly energizes me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;So my advice to you is to not focus on those time wasting attacks on your clear mind and focus that will come from people, situations and tragedies, but concentrate on what YOUR destiny is and work toward the development of it EVERYDAY in ways BIG and SMALL!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Some days it may seem as though your dreams are a million years away and may NEVER transpire, I know the feeling, DON'T BELIEVE IT! Do NOT allow a present reality, obstacle or even an imbalanced relationship thwart your personal improvement and movement toward the NEW realities that are promised to you if you can only hold on! HOLD ON! If you give up then you will be cut off from what is due to you through God's promise! I know someone is feeling these words! Let it go to God and seek protection in HIS bosom!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Don't allow that man of yours to make you feel silly for dreaming about changing yourself for the better! I hear it all the time: "What you wanna go to school for? You are too old too do something like that! You should have done it before you started having all those babies!" That's a damn LIE! If you can think it, you can DO IT! And if you don't make it on your first try, HOLD ON and keep doing the damn thing! Your girlfriends might say behind your back: "I don't know why she is trying to lose that weight, we all know she will start going to the gym for a little while and quit her diet and training as soon as she sees a bucket of fried chicken in front of her!" Even if you stay up all night with the chicken baby, GET UP and start a fresh new day like it never happened! Don't look back!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Years ago I can remember being laughed at for picking up my pen and pencil and being told that I was too old (Six years ago when I was 40) to start drawing again or that I should start out by going to get part time work at Disney here in Orlando. WHAT? I had different thoughts! How was I going to be a person who affects the thinking of the masses of my people with my talent if I went to Disney world to sketch the faces of tourists for a couple of devalued bucks? It wasn't money that I was after, I had a REAL MISSION to accomplish! Now, as I look back to the many people all over the world who appreciate what I do, I think of how hard the people around me tried to discourage me because even THEY knew that something special was perculating deep within my soul. NEVER GIVE UP! Imagine if I did? Now I never compromised my vision and now I dictate what projects I undertake or not! All because when the negativity came, I let go of it and NEVER internalized it! And the funny part is that those same old haters living their same old tired realities that ridiculed you so much in the past and put you down with their noses to the air as though they were a member of some exclusive club that you were not good enough to join, will one day feel so foolish as they watch you soar! Take it from me, it's a great feeling to LET IT GO because God has BETTER for you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;I don't care what you are going through right now, all you have to do is follow God's word and it will NEVER EVER let you down! A woman can leave you. A man can cheat on you. Someone may lie on you. A job can be taken from you. Money can be tight. You got a lump and you are scared to find out what it is. You feel nobody wants to be around you and the only company that you think you have is the roach that comes out after you cook dinner. Everything can seem wrong. Got a toothache but no dental benefits and you can't take the rent money to get it pulled and the Anbesol stop working! The lights might be cut off. No money for gas to get to work. Erection ain't as hard as it used to be. Breasts can be sagging, trying to touch your toes. You don't know what it will take to get through to that kid of yours, they are smart but they don't try hard enough in school. Daughter is pregnant.

(Part 2)</title><content type="html">&lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;With the way we as a people are living our lives, it's a wonder that anyone would even NEED to turn ON the television to watch Jerry Springer when all one now has to do is look out of their window or better yet, LOOK IN THE MIRROR!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have actually now BECOME the frighteningly degraded caricatures that were specifically prepared for us and projected onto the television screen for our consumption, permeating our subconscious mind for years making the ignorant and evil transgressions an acceptable way of life for us, fulfilling an evil plan designed to bring on our very own doom!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can you be content as a man, to see your woman leave the house at the crack of dawn, in pursuit of an improved life situation while you roll over to drool on the pillow until noon? This is totally unacceptable unless you work on a night job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She comes home tired beyond measure and you demand to know where she has been for the last two hours when she got home just a little late,as though she had the time OR the energy to run with another, but all she was guilty of was to stop at the supermarket to pick up some items to make YOUR favorite dish. She might have been better off actually BEING with someone else compared to the sorry example of manhood and PRIME example of a failure and blessing blocker to HER life that you've become!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It should be a BANQUET waiting for her when she arrives to a clean and spotless home that smells so good from all of the available idle time that this sloth has at his disposal but wasted doing nothing of note! But the same dirty dishes await her in the sink as well as the well filled toilet that he always forgets to flush with that God awful stench that greets you offensively upon your arrival!.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And as if that disgusting discovery and nasal intrusion wasn't enough, she has to endure the barbaric attempts of foreplay free carnal release from a man who possesses the romantic finesse just barely above that of a wild dog in heat. Night after night of tolerating this man grunt and groan on top of her she prays for his always premature release so that she can forget the imbalanced union that they share.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heavy tears stream down the Mother Enabler's tired face as she half heartedly brings herself manually to an empty climax while she fights back the tears of sadness and disgust. She knows as she begins to play out this lonely ritual every night that it would never bring her the deep satisfaction that her total being yearns for, but in her mind it is a welcome escape even if only for the few brief stolen moments from this mockery of a goon who snores so repulsively next to her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It really shouldn't come as a surprise to us that many of our sisters have found the satisfaction and understanding that they so desperately crave in the arms of another woman.......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With men like these hangin' around can you blame them?.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would be nice to have an intelligent discussion like the type you hear at the job, nice to come home to a man who wants to discuss with you the pros and cons of President Obama's Health Care Reform instead of the fight around the corner involving his prison buddy Pookie or the high score he beat that day on the Play Station!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does this bloodsucker deserve the KINGS treatment?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NO!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Has he earned it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NO!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does SHE deserve this dead weight man?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YES! ..............Why?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because she allows it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see, while no one deserves to be drained of their precious life force and used in such a manner by an unworthy male, if she felt that she deserved better then she would end it! But the Mother Enabler feels it is her holy duty and purpose to be used as a foot stool for another!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I never understood for the life of me is why do they find these men that fit such a lowdown description to dedicate their precious energies to elevate them?  What a poor waste of an investment with below zero return! Hardly worth the mental, physical and emotional energy but these woman just do not see it that way.  It's embedded deep in her psychological makeup, and the funny thing is, if she were to cease this travesty of a dysfunctional relationship, she would find someone to be with just as bad as the one before if not even worse!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe it's just me but it seems that the righteous nature placed IN the woman to serve her man was somehow at some point in her life thrown completely out of balance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as the righteous nature of a man to be the Priest, Protector, Provider and Prophet was taken away and twisted everything that was good about him around into something that he wasn't ever created to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will say this, that in this amerikkkan society that we live in, a strong Black male presence and identity is undesirable. If we were to blossom into what we as men were created to be by our Creator and take our rightful place by our women then literally in the twinkling of an eye many of the negative conditions that have plagued our communities for what seems like an eternity would be banished seemingly OVERNIGHT!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin at LanceScurv@yahoo.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or Call/Text: 407 590 0755&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.LanceScurvin.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.ScurvOriginalz.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.Twitter.com/LanceScurv&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin direct at LanceScurv@yahoo.com or call/text 24/7 at 407-590-0755.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8407458295132219322-724313653849097095?l=www.lancescurvin.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/LanceScurv/~4/Z_FJKwXlu6s" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.lancescurvin.com/feeds/724313653849097095/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8407458295132219322&amp;postID=724313653849097095&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/724313653849097095" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/724313653849097095" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LanceScurv/~3/Z_FJKwXlu6s/is-your-man-only-with-you-because-he_16.html" title="Is Your Man Only With You Because He Needs Another Mother-Enabler To Sleep With?

Well I didn't mean that your man was physically looking to sleep with HIS mother, although their are some extremely sick and twisted individuals out here in the world who might be into that type of thing. I've seen crazier stuff in my day. But I am talking about the type of man-leech who has no motivation at all to contribute to the situation that he happens to be in which is the LEAST that any man can do or at least step up and BE a real man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Now first off all, I am focusing mostly on the men out here but there ARE undoubtedly some women who are cut from this same dysfunctional cloth. So men, if you ARE doing the right thing this isn't for you, but I feel that I HAVE to speak on this issue because in my job dealing with the public and being in the streets all day driving that bus, I feel as though I am MORE than qualified to speak on what I see because I spend more time interacting in the streets than most. Understood? Okay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;More than ever before I am seeing not only men who have not one iota of drive and vision for their future, but this seems to be the prevailing mindset of many in the younger generation! Now while there are many of our young striving for excellence either educationally or the mastery of a trade, it appears to me that the majority of our younger folks are content to remain as a deadbeat members of society with no change from this pitiful manifestation of the human spirit in sight!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;But where did it start? Why is it catching on so much these days so much when our communities NEED strong men now more than ever? What is it that we need to do to reverse this travesty and heal our communities to be enabled to produce strong leaders who will be movers and shakers as the righteous batton is passed to them?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;When I drive up and down the same old neighborhoods all night and observe the SAME men standing on the corner producing nothing or moving toward anything other than an inflated arrest record, it ticks me off to see so much wasted manpower that could be used for something constructive. And that visual absorbed everyday can be a very very depressing sight indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Let me share something that was passed onto me the other day from a friend, she told me that HER grandfather believed that a man should be FOUR things to his home and family. A REAL man must be a Priest, a Protector, a Prophet and a Provider. Isn't this amazing? Look at our men and even YOUR man and TELL ME if this is the case!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;When that man is in "Priest" mode, he must be able to prescribe God's wisdom in the manner that it is needed in the unique situation where spiritual guidance is required. HE more than anyone OUTSIDE of the home MUST know what is needed because he is sensitive to the internal stresses of that household and it's members from day to day. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Like a captain guiding his ship, although he isn't the ONLY one running that ship, HIS divine word based in the righteous laws of the Creator is the final word. But this level of power comes with an extreme level of responsibilty as his Godly ordained position OF father of the home cannot be tainted or blurred by the addition of an underdeveloped or sin based mind and ego.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;When the man is in "Protector" mode, he executes what the name indicates. He PROTECTS his family! Now, what do you think this means? Well, there are certain things that one didn't have to worry about back in the previous decades that we have to concern ourselves with now. In those days, a REAL man as per my friend's grandfather's description of a man, was the ONLY person EVER to answer the door when there was a knock or if the bell was ringing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;NO ONE ELSE WAS TO GO NEAR THAT DOOR!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;She told me that he said the reason was because if the devil came to your front door to cause mischief in that targeted home, then he would rather go elsewhere when he realized that a strong spritually grounded Godly man dwelled and ruled there!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Now I ask you when you look around today, WHERE ARE THE MEN LIKE THIS? I see father letting their daughters stay out all times of the night dressed in the whorish garb of a streetwalker with a huge quota of money to make up that night. I see men who allow ANY MAN into the most private recesses of their homes and wonder why these same shady acquaintances and friends try to take over their women right under their noses! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;You don't see the bees in nature allow anyone to get anywhere NEAR the Queen-Bee, so why are you letting all types of foul spirited men around your women and your daughters in the domain that is supposed to be the safest place for them on earth? You NEED to take a strong cue from Mother nature because if a damn BEE can move in the manner that it was created in, then what happened to YOUR sorry a-s-s?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt; Now these days, we just can't send our children to their rooms as punishment and discipline anymore, because they can STILL communicate with these SAME foul spirits and predators online on their computers and run circles around their parents on a technological level because we do not keep up with the advances as much as we should!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;In the name of Protection, there should be no areas of the home that are off limits to this man and his wife, CHECK the room, all up under the bed, in the closets, the pockets of all of the outfits. Watch everything they DO online, make them give up those passwords and CHECK their e-mails received and sent right in front of them. Know WHO their friends are and KNOW who the PARENTS of their friends are! Let your children know that while you will give YOUR LIFE to protect them, you will also SPEND YOUR LIFE protecting them from the ever growing desires that they are not yet equipped or mature enough to control or understand! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;We have GOT to keep our homes AIRTIGHT as righteous men! And if anyone has the time to call you crazy, then THAT's a person who has TOO MUCH time on their hands that they could be using to protect THEIR home! The devil might be ringing THEIR doorbell!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;When the man is in "Prophet" mode, he must understand the temperment of everyone in his home to be enabled to prescribe the best course of action for living an edifying life. If he has a child who stands four foot three at thirteen years old, it might be a bit foolish to continue to stoke his passions to pursue a career as a professional basketball player. Especially if that same child has a talent and love for, say example, the biological sciences, where it might bring back a larger return for his efforts to develop and focus on THAT passion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;While in Prophet mode that father MUST moniter the current events of the world and fashion a life plan according to how those seemingly distant events will effect HIS family, THEIR home and their collective energies and investments! He cannot be a man who only thinks as far as the corner store or around the block but must understand the he, as well as his family, are citizens of the WORLD! And I must stress again that this must be executed WITHOUT the human frailties that WE possess but as a God connected man who understands that Divine wisdom must dictate his every decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;When that man is in "Provider" mode, it is not only mandatory to utilize ALL of his resources to provide for his family all of the necessary items for a life that's worry free of survival, but also to make sure that while he IS providing for them, he IS being an example to his children on what a man is supposed to do to have THEM internalize the spirit adhering to gainful employment whether it is on a job or a business that you own. By providing for them the food to eat, the roof over their head and the clothes on their back, you are allowing them to understand that there ARE benefits to the constant discipline and sacrifice as they enjoy the fruits of a righteous labor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;WOW! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;After those thoughts of what a real man is all about I have to say that many of us have to do a gut check to see if we are up to that righteous standard (I LOVE that word righteous, don't I? LOL!) but at LEAST we may be aware of the need for improvement but many of the aforementioned deadbeats are clueless anyway and probably don't even care. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Now, in getting back to these men who seem to desire a caretaker mother figure as their woman, let me say that it is of my humble opinion that the effects of slavery have a lot to do with the general psyche of many foolish men who never were indoctrinated properly into the knowledge in order to break the rhythm that being enslaved initially created. I mean, we didn't arrive here in this condition as the spiritually contaminated men when we were first introduced to these shores against our will for the oppressor's evil agenda.....but the signs are there. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Look at the multitude of Black men in ANY and EVERY city you could think off, and what do we grab for first when all else fails? What do we feel is our strongest asset as we stand poor and ignorant to the very principles of progress that others have embraced and mastered. When all else fails we grab for our sex organs! This is the first thing we brag about and speak of with ANY measure of confidence because it has been ingrained in us and subconsciously passed down to us from our forefathers days on the plantation! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;Yes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Because this was our purpose other than being a big strong "buck" for the slave master's empire to do his bidding. We were allowed to screw as many of our enslaved sisters in order to procreate another generation of ignorant servants to perpetuate HIS wealth! And what do we do now? We again screw around with as many women as we possibly can in order to perpetuate HIS wealth! Well, you may think that slavery is over but look how many of us are on lock down! We've only been out enough to make a few babies because deep down we know that it is just a matter of time before we get caught from the various hustles that we indulge in so we take ALL of the pleasure that we possibly can without any thought of the repercussions. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So the cycle continues with the State (D.O.C.) being the winner, with the courts being the winner, the police being the winner, the lawyers being the winner, the District Attorneys being the winner, the businesses that profit from all products created for prison life being the winner, a WHOLE entire system IN PLACE to profit from your dumb black a-s-s because you think you are a thug!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;And if you can remember earlier what I said, if the devil come to ring your bell, he won't tarry TOO long when he sees a spiritually and morally just man answer the door! So satan wouldn't live so well in our communities if WE were the men that God created us to be! The drugs wouldn't have a market if we lived clean and upright with an esteem so high that it would be immeasurable! The guns wouldn't sell at ALL in our neighborhoods because the self love that would ring from corner to corner would prevent ANY need for a weapon other than the art of reasoning in bringing peace to any misunderstanding or disputes!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But since we are all out of the divine synchronization intended for us by our Creator, our roles are mixed up and we do not have a clue as what the Godly hierarchy is supposed to be! So we have males never&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;wanting to be men, we have women having to do a double load in the home because of the lack of a MANLY presence whether there is a male there or a p-e-n-i-s there or NOT! In the 'hood, p-e-n-i-s-e-s are plenty and always available but the real men are FEW!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So now we have perfectly good women who have been disappointed in the absence of that divine male bonding time and time again, that we ALL need to embrace in our early formative years so they have had to alter their natural female balance UN-naturally to accommodate the need for what IS lacking and become the very thing they craved but never really had.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So in comes this morphed and altered male who seeks out a woman who will tolerate any man with the low standards of a leech JUST to have a male around. She doesn't mind that he is good for nothing because at least he comes home every night. While he might babysit from time to time, he will NEVER be the one to seek out employment, in his mind it wouldn't fit properly in his day because he wouldn't be able to hang out on the corner with the other broken brothers if he had to work! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;WORK? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Imagine that!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;You see, many of these losers had mothers who were enablers and never demanded that they step up to the plate and execute what their age and positioning as young men called for. They have allowed their sons to sit around after high school in front of the television set or video game like an old retired racehorse grazing on the fields without any sense of what a damn chore is! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;This type of mother will work two and three jobs without even demanding that her young punks in training do a thing to contribute. She feels somewhat guilty that there wasn't a man around the house so she placates them in their slothful activity so that THEY won't leave her like their father did! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So it is a trade off. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;A silent agreement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; Now this isn't every situation or explanation for every situation but for those of us who have lived life on this earth for a time will have had experienced a setup like this! These types of mothers are doing NOTHING but making their sons handicapped and a burden to society because in their mind this arrangement is normalcy and something to be highly desired!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;For those of you who work in the prisons as corrections officers, you can hear these type of men brag about how "their many hoes" take care of them and will keep their accounts full and the brand new items coming in for them to enjoy while locked down! They will even push their chests out even MORE so when two or three women that they have been messing around with arrive to the visitation area and realize that they are all coming to visit the same man! This is supposed to be an indication of him being MORE of a man because these hoes love this d**k and are willing to FIGHT for it! What kind of Jerry Springer existence are we living brothers?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;.............&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:large;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"&gt;.........To be continued tonight!

Why can it be such an elusive quality to maintain and how is it so easy to lose?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Out of the many Merriam-Webster definitions for the word "balance", I believe this one in particular best fits the one that I had in mind for this blog entry:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Balance- A condition for which opposing forces are equal to each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In creation there are many extremely powerful forces at work, but they exist in balance to continue the life giving rhythms of the earth. The weather, the seasons, the movement of the earth, sunrise and sunset all work together for a specific purpose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We as human beings are part of this amazing creation and are governed by these earthly rhythms whether we acknowledge them or not. We need to take a cue from what we observe going on around us in the natural world. The natural environment gives us very easy to understand indications of what goes on in the spiritual world. Those of you with the depth to understand where I am coming from will agree. And to those of you who may have let that one go over your head, then it may be more convenient to say that Lance Scurvin is extremely crazy. It's okay, I am used to it! LOL!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So if there is a spiritual reflection in the earthly movements and we are governed by these same physical rules then it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that there is a spiritual part of our being that we cannot see. See, although while many of us can go to a religious service on the weekend, we do not for the most part disconnect with the physical plane in order to enter into that spiritual realm to be receptive to what is truly being shared from the pulpit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So even in the righteous attempt at worship, we are off and out of balance. Spending 4 hours getting ready for a church service does NOT make you appear any better to God nor does it increase your ability to absorb His righteous instruction any more than if you wore a pair of gym sweats to the very same service.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Correct the imbalance!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hear the mind of a deceived so called believer:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Dear LAWD, I spent 150 dollars at the beauty parlor yesterday and this outfit costs over 500 bucks, don't you see how much of dedicated servant I am to you"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dedicated servant?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But on your way out of the mall's beauty salon, you had your backside up on your shoulders so high that everyone thought it was a knapsack!!! And those who needed a good encouraging word in passing (There may have been someone in need that God put in your path that day to witness to!) were turned off to your stink musty "churchified" attitude that you were unable to truly execute God's bidding because you were just too caught up in your own self centered ego contaminated FUNK!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get back in balance!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can't wait to pay your tithes (Not that you REALLY want to part with God's money anyway!) because in your mind that's the time to turn that center aisle of the temple into your own private fashion runway, hard shaking booty cheeks that are in a sensual Jezebel attention grabbing state of constant chaos switching while smothered in a three sizes "too small" dress like a crazy man in a straight jacket slowly sashaying down to the front with that boulevard hooker strut that you should have been purged of a long time ago when you claimed you were saved! And you wonder why most of the "church brothers" not only want to pray with you, but "lay hands on you" too! This blog may not be for everyone, but I know SOMEBODY out here knows what I'm talking about!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get back in balance!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Balance helps us to latch on to the forces of the universe and amplify our efforts to build and to grow. When you find someone who is always in drama, always unable to maintain stability in their lives, always in the same damn rut for YEARS on end and ain't lookin' to go beyond their little corner of stale contentment, then something is terribly imbalanced!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing goes unchallenged and smooth forever, we will all face major obstacles in this life and the chance to earn our gray hairs, but the basic premise of life is movement and if ones life is not moving in SOME direction, it is comparable to existing as the living dead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Living a life out of balance forces us to pay an inflated price to bring it back into it's proper place. Don't want to pay your bills on time? Well when you want to purchase that new car, you WILL pay a higher interest rate because of your past recorded indiscretions. Want to live a life out of balance and try to keep it a secret that you have 15 women all over town? Well eventually you will be downtown in front of the Judge for your child support hearing if not also down to the Health Clinic to see what that itchy yellowish fluid is coming out of you "down there!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But contained in the prior paragraph were examples that appeared to be undesirable, but how many of us have worked so much overtime on our jobs or multiple jobs for no apparent financial reason, gain or goal, appearing to be hard working individuals but really were trying to avoid some form of madness at home? Now when we hear of that very same someone who appeared to be living a good life because of their hard earned financial accumulations blowing their brains out with a gun in a suicide, we realize that we were not aware of the painful imbalances in their lives that could have been corrected and a sad situation avoided.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GET BACK IN BALANCE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can NEVER recapture our balanced lives if we refuse to face the underlying issues that throw our lives out of whack! There is absolutely NO benefit to make excuses for our own failure to correct our imbalances! If we don't take action, it will ride us for the rest of our lives and hamper us from living a truly a truly fulfilling life!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.......and THIS is NOT what our Maker desires for us!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin at LanceScurv@yahoo.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or Call/Text: 407 590 0755&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.LanceScurvin.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.ScurvOriginalz.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.Twitter.com/LanceScurv&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin direct at LanceScurv@yahoo.com or call/text 24/7 at 407-590-0755.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8407458295132219322-4626608365487160897?l=www.lancescurvin.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/LanceScurv/~4/R31J5UxD3So" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.lancescurvin.com/feeds/4626608365487160897/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8407458295132219322&amp;postID=4626608365487160897&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/4626608365487160897" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/4626608365487160897" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LanceScurv/~3/R31J5UxD3So/how-can-you-so-easily-balance-tires-on.html" title="How Can You So Easily Balance The Tires On Your Car But Not The Drama In Your Life?" /><author><name>Lance Scurvin, mastermind behind the ScurvOriginalz.com website.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12247523572965782180</uri><email>LanceScurv@yahoo.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="09831926459292562140" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SoNoP_h2FcI/AAAAAAAAAF8/3ccoOdlAyzs/s72-c/carmechanic.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://www.lancescurvin.com/2009/08/how-can-you-so-easily-balance-tires-on.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8407458295132219322.post-1542456074468614877</id><published>2009-08-11T01:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-11T01:47:43.464-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Your" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="All" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Times" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Lance Scurvin" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Scurv" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Happiness" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="ScurvOriginalz" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Scurvin" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Protect" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="At" /><title type="text">Protect Your Happiness At ALL Times!</title><content type="html">&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SoEujIdKtYI/AAAAAAAAAF0/hPJEAKnhigk/s1600-h/ali-liston372.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 372px; height: 265px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_jT49SLgZTHI/SoEujIdKtYI/AAAAAAAAAF0/hPJEAKnhigk/s400/ali-liston372.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5368623411902461314" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Happiness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;A word that means so many different things to so many different people. If you asked 100 people what the word happiness meant to them, you would at least get most likely about 150 different responses.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Those&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;who respond would be quick to tell you what would make them happy, but usually their response would either cater to one or more of their five senses or maybe to some of their basic ego needs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I'm saying this because I believe most people really don't know what it takes to make them happy, most attempt to emulate what they observe in the situations around them. This is just my viewpoint and I don't think this goes for everyone, but actually most.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;When I am in a crowd of people, I can see the void of true happiness in their eyes. Admittedly,  I can see the people who do have sense of fulfillment also, its a whole different vibe that you receive from them when they are in your presence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Its in the eyes, the eyes do not ever lie. Someone can possess the brightest plastic colgate smile and fool the masses of people around them but if they are unhappy an experienced shrewd observer will be able to tell the difference a mile away.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Now let's flip that scenario around for a moment let me say that when YOU are truly happy, and&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I mean genuinely overflowing with joy, it is evident to everyone around you even more than you can imagine because your mere presence can light up a room even if you are very conservative in your demeanor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Happiness is highly contagious especially for the individuals who are receptive to the joy of another human being and are sincerely  happy for them. In this manner it can light up the gloomiest of situations and the most depressed of hearts. It doesn't cost a dime but its value is priceless when you see the effect on ones life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I have also found that the happiest people are those individuals who have found their personal purpose in this life and are relentlessly pursuing the fulfillment of their purpose. They are always overjoyed to share their journey's development as an inspiration to others to motivate them to also find their mission through their personal example and roadmap.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Now I speak on this phenomenon in my own life as I have discovered  my own purpose and reason for being created and I have to admit that it has made every single day of my life pure ecstacy! I've come full circle in my inner search and after years of seeking that always elusive answer externally, quite to my surprise it was always there planted deep within my soul INTERNALLY by the Creator Himself!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;What a relief!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;No masks to wear, I just have to be myself! No faux status to try and pretend that I've reached, me just being me is good enough. No trying to keep up with the latest fads, styles and passing fancies, the name brand and legacy that I am building now through my life's work over time will live on beyond me as long as I remain in total submission to the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);" class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1249977235_0"&gt;will of God&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;How empowering!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;And THOSE words that I just spoke so should you in YOUR own unique way! God made every single one of us to be unique, to shine a special light to the world and to be HAPPY all along while doin' the damn thing too!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Always remember and NEVER forget, if you were made by GOD you were made by the BEST! God will NEVER fail you! It is only we who fail to stay connected to the Victorius One!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Aint NOBODY whippin God and if you remain on His side aint nobody whippin' you either! Now you&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;might get knocked down a WHOLE lot in this life but that should NOT kill your spirit. That should make you take joy watching the haters who put you there temporarily look on in utter shock at Gods power flowing through you!  (Please pardon the ebonics! I get a little excited sometimes! Lol!)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Now that brings me to speak on just that, staying connected so that we can continue to develop our divine talents. We are not going to stay connected to the spirit and maintain that divine happiness if we allow the spirit killers in our personal space. It is their JOB to disconnect you from your joy. Now you will always have to exist in a close proximity to these entities, but understand that you can be in the world but not part of it.

These ARE some wonderful days, make no mistake about it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:georgia;" &gt;Now I know exactly what you might be thinking, how could Scurv say such a thing when jobs are being lost, homes are going into foreclosure and there just doesn't seem like an end to this madness in sight anytime soon!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;font-family:georgia;" &gt;Well for many of you who were complaining about the job you DID have and no longer have to regret waking up everyday to have to go to that plantation, you are now FREE! For those of you who do not have that huge mortgage every month hanging around your neck like a noose, you are FREE! And for those gloomy oppressive realities that appeared NOT to have and end in sight, you now have a NEW reality in front of you where the end is wonderfully limitless! How exciting indeed!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I know that it is not as easy as that sounds because no one I know no matter HOW positive they may be in their thinking is going to become ecstatic upon hearing that they are losing their home soon or blissfully overjoyed that they just lost their job.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;I mean, the first thought to hit your mind at that point should be about survival, not the endless potential of possibilities and opportunities at the end of the colorful rainbow.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;Heck, the is no one that I know who goes after their dreams when they are deep in survival mode. Tell someone who is feeling the pangs of hunger in their gut and the constant worry that accompanies a life of homelessness don't want to hear about how good the future can be! They don't want to hear that, they are lookin' to CHOW DOWN and find a clean warm place to grab a good nights REST!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;Now if these individuals that are challenged have children that it makes for an even MORE complicated situation indeed. Well I give them a pass.........&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BUT!..... If you HAVE a job, and you HAVE a home and are in good health, then YOU have NO reason to complain about a damn thing! We have gotten so used to living in excess that when we must sacrifice a bit to keep the basic things paid and running smooth in our lives, we act as though we can't handle it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;But if truth be told to spend your time living in fear because of what you stand to lose will cause you to miss out on what these so called tight times have opened the floodgates for you to enjoy these great gifts that you have gained!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;For those of you who have allowed those good ole' days of material gluttony in the 90's and beyond to blind you as to what true living is all about, then prepare yourself to understand that one day soon you will see how your lust for a "perceived" status through "things" has caused you to lose precious relationships and irreplaceable time!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;These are the very things that we have regained in these bleak economic times and it took losing so much to see what is truly important!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The trick is if those who went through the turbulent times of lose get back to the level of financial strength that they once possessed then they should really have life in perspective to know that the cars, homes and easy to vanish trinkets of this world mean absolutely nothing without the balance and peace of mind that comes from having God in charge of your life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;After a life of chasing paper, IF you even had the luxury of a deathbed where you KNEW you were passing on to the next level soon and had time to ponder the manner in which you have lived your life, WHAT regrets if any will you have?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What would be the things that you would do differently?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What were the things that brought you the most joy to your heart and who would you want to spend just ONE more moment with to tell them how much you loved having them in your life?&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Notice in the questions that I asked previously, not one time did I ask: "What big money item could I have purchased that I didn't have the chance to buy?" Or, "I regret not spending money on those custom rims for that luxury car that I bought 20 years ago"........ Why didn't I ask these type of questions? Because you and I BOTH know that those types of questions are completely irrelevant when you are staring the angel of death dead in the face!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;So when you view life in this manner you will realize that regardless as to WHAT challenges we may have day to day in a struggle economy, life IS a gift and we have so much to live for! These ARE the good old days and you should NEVER let any person, any place or any THING take you out of that mindset. If you allow that negativity to permeate your mind you will miss out on so many things...........&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;Like:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;..........the unexpected beauty of a sunset.&lt;/span&gt;     &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mouth watering scent of the chicken on the grill blowing over from the folks cooking out next door.&lt;/span&gt;     &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The joy and sense of accomplishment of fitting into that outfit that was a bit too tight to even consider wearing this time last year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;The warmth of your child's hand holding YOUR hand tight as you safely walk him/her across the street.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;That smile and wink from that member of the opposite sex that you just KNEW paid you NO mind what so EVER!&lt;/span&gt;     &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That old song that you never knew the name of, coming on the radio right before you turned the car off to go into Wal-Mart or Target, but it held you CAPTIVE right there in the parking lot until it was over as you listened to it until the end.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;(I KNOW what I'm talkin' 'bout!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Waking up scared because you thought it was a work day only to realize that you can go back to that delicious warm spot in the bed for hours on end because it's really your day off.&lt;/span&gt;     &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Overhearing some people talking about you intensely, only to realize that what they are saying is all good and complimentary statements!&lt;/span&gt;     &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shall I go on?&lt;/span&gt;     &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Life is TOO precious to overlook these small but constant treats that are thrown our way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);font-family:georgia;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Once we collectively empower ourselves with the little things that make our hearts glow, we will then realize that these days as well as all of the days in our lives yet to come are TRULY "THE GOOD OL' DAYS!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Contact Lance Scurvin At: LanceScurv@yahoo.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Or Call/Text: 407-590-0755&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;www.ScurvOriginalz.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;www.LanceScurvin.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;www.Twitter.com/LanceScurv&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;www.YouTube.com/ScurvOriginalz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin direct at LanceScurv@yahoo.com or call/text 24/7 at 407-590-0755.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8407458295132219322-583102187944959208?l=www.lancescurvin.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/LanceScurv/~4/SzcjrXAUFtg" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.lancescurvin.com/feeds/583102187944959208/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8407458295132219322&amp;postID=583102187944959208&amp;isPopup=true" title="1 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/583102187944959208" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8407458295132219322/posts/default/583102187944959208" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LanceScurv/~3/SzcjrXAUFtg/unemployment-foreclosures-inflation-why.html" title="Unemployment?

And today after enjoying such an awesomely deep rejuvenating slumber, I left my home with the full power of my third eye on point.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p  style="text-align: center; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I am now in the moment. Every second that passes feels like it is taking five seconds to go by. My thinking is swift. I can see through the intentions of those who approach me with hidden agendas. It is in these times when I feel this way that I can get so much accomplished. It is such a natural high. It is times like this that is actually the culmination of all of the healthy mental, physical and spiritual habits that I have made a point to include in my daily life.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;When the Bible speaks of "spirits" that wander about the earth seeking to devour, we know that it is something unseen to the eye that we wrestle with every single day of our lives. But most individuals do not understand that those very smiling faces you so easily allow into your private space and inner circle potentially contain these wayward evil entities that you would otherwise seek to avoid!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;They enter into your life in the manner of a Trojan horse, masked with a smile and armed with a cold vicious intention that you never knew they could ever have possessed until hopefully not too late. They can pass through your life in a swift moment, doing a lifetime of damage in the twinkling of an eye just as well as they could tarry on over the years and pretend to be a friend, waiting for the most opportune moment to assault you in the most lethal of ways.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;But in hindsight after such a shocking assault and violation of what was once considered a cherished friendship, you realized that you ignored those subtle signs that were indicators of the bigger issues that lurked beneath the pristine surface of their paper thin facade.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;God doesn't leave his delicate creations in nature without protection. Those beautiful flowers have thorns. The egg that contains a delicate life germ has a shell. The bee has a stinger. The cat has its claws. Therefore, our Creator has equipped us with the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);" id="lw_1249802255_0" class="yshortcuts"&gt;gift of discernment&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;, it works wonderfully one hundred per cent of the time.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;The reason why we get ourselves into bad situations from the poor choices we make is that we have disconnected ourselves from that divine mechanism that would have prevented us from falling into that sorry situation in the first place!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;You MUST always keep yourself centered everyday, especially as you leave your home. If you are not totally prepared, motivated and focused on what YOUR mission is on that particular day, your energies WILL be usurped for another entities purpose! So to be clear on what your purpose is for that day, but remember, you have to KNOW what your goals are as well as its value in the overall scheme of your personal mission.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Guard you precious and limited energies. Do not waste time and the resources of your enthusiasm by babbling with a foolish soul who will only deplete you because they cannot conceptualize the broad scope and depth of your dream. If they want to argue that it can't be done, let them talk, they will SEE its manifestation soon one day and will be unable to argue with the proof of living breathing accomplishment that was born out of your blood, sweat and tears!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Protect your ears at all times! People who harbor negative spirits love to invade your space and throw off a word that will permeate your psyche in order thwart your righteous efforts. They know that to upset your thinking from what you are focused on is the first step in bringing you down to their level of inactivity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Positive energy begets positive energy. Find yourself around others who are striving for advancement in some positive arena in their lives. Look for individuals who spend their time wisely and avoid those who waste precious time as though they have all the time in the world to blow. the most frustrating aspect of getting older is realizing all of the time that you wasted that could have been utilized toward something lasting and edifying. DON'T become one of those people....it is NOT a good feeling!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;This advice goes for those in potential relationships. Do NOT think for one second that because someone looks good or talks good that they ARE good! This is not to say that one should in a state of paranoia 24/7 but in fact if you happen to be in THIS day and age, it might not be a bad thing!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Lol!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;But when you join on with someone in Holy Matrimony or even in a sexually charged sin laden overnight rendezvous for which I wouldn't recommend, you must realize that there are forces at work unseen to the eye that are not only binding but very potent as well!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;When you as a woman go to bed with a dumb man, you wake up a little more stupid, a vice versa! There are things too vast for our limited minds to grasp on this level so that is why it is said that we must TRUST in what God tells us to do! There are strict laws to our mental, physical and spiritual well being that we MUST submit too and when we do although we will be on the level that our creator wants us to be on, we will appear larger than life and superhuman to those who practice the worldly laws of death!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;How can one discern spirits when your body is clogged up trying to digest the cursed flesh of a pig? How can one have total focus when lust blocks the windshield of the third eye from focusing on the task at hand? How can one truly love when envy rules all other sides of their life? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;It's time to stop explaining away those hidden faults that we hide so well and instead of hugging them up and becoming cozy with them, look then dead in the eye, stop giving them power over you, demand better of yourself and rid them from your life........and in exchange for your efforts your creator will replace the old clunker of a life with one that is shiny and new for the rest of your existence!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;And yes, this goes for those toxic relationships too that you can't seem to let go! Stop tolerating the crap that's draining you down because you are hooked on something that you may feel is salvageable in them. Some of you men may tolerate a woman who you KNOW is just using you but because you are weak for her "headgame", you just keep on doling out the cash while the disrespect she displays while she brazenly plays with other men continues to irk the hell out of you. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Some of you women may feel that you have to stay with a man because you can't make it on your own....."What am I going to do with the little money I make? Live on the streets?" But it's better to live in the streets for a time and gain the strength necessary to pick yourself up than having to go every other month to the local clinic to deal with the S.T.D's that are being delivered to you in a so called relationship of convenience that is destined to have you lowered soon in a casket when you get something that you can't get rid of!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Refrain from the foolishness of this world in order to allow the power of discernment that you already possess to make your life easier, to avoid the unnecessary and very much avoidable bumps in the road and to live beyond the great potential that God has put in all of us!&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;Contact Lance Scurvin at: LanceScurv@yahoo.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

as opposed to the environment that we live in being the chief factor in what we eventually manifest into.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;One things for sure, the effect one's upbringing had on their subconcious mind WILL follow an individual for the rest of their entire life! This can be a good thing or it can be a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);" id="lw_1249715819_1" class="yshortcuts"&gt;bad thing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;, but I find it interesting that usually without the act of divine intervention, upsetting the passing of the generationally blessed or cursed baton, the fruit usually doesn't fall too far from the tree.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Your background or pedigree can be a thing that constantly haunts you from shame/regrets or can be a proud source of the residual loving support and motivation that you received as a child when the challenges/tribulations of life find themselves knocking at your door.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span id="lw_1249715819_2" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Childhood memories, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;good AND bad influence our thoughts and decisions everyday whether we acknowledge this fact or not.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I remember growing up while in elementary school there was a wonderful poster on the wall that described how a child learns to deal with the many issues he/she will encounter in life. The format pretty much said: "If a child was raised to _____, then he/she learns to _____. "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I don't remember everything it said but I am quite sure many of you reading this blogpost may recall this same beautifully written but" oh so true" masterpiece. If any of you might know how I could find one, please let me know as soon as humanly possible thank you!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;But this was so well written that it broke down what traits a child would possess from what he/she learned in their upbringing to an exact science! As a child myself I was a bit advanced in my understanding of things and found this to be so fascinating to ponder on a constant basis!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Now let's get deep..............&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Why is it that some children of an affluent background can fail so miserably when they have inherited all of the factors in place to insure BIG TIME success when across town in the netherworld of that often maligned place called the 'hood you will find a child with every reason inplace that would make you understand if he did  give up hope, but somehow found a way to excel and exceed beyond the wildest expectations of all. You will find this to be the case and all of the other possible scenarios in between and contained in this broad mysterious spectrum called life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;What makes a great childhood? So many parents make the mistake of replacing the precious and necessary time that should be spent with their children with an excess of material items that in hindsight have done absolutely nothing for the crucial character development of that child.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Granted, in this poor "barely breathing" economy, most two parent households can barely make it without working an extra job or doing a little overtime. So could you imagine what an intimidating obstacle course it must be for a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);" id="lw_1249715819_3" class="yshortcuts"&gt;single parent home&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; that is usually run by a strong woman who had NO choice but to be the mother AND the father to her children simultaneously?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I know so many adults who have grown up below the poverty line  look back on their childhood with with an extreme relish and joy regardless of the lack of funds, they reminisced in a teary eyed fashion because of the abundance and outpouring of love that permeated their every precious moment growing up! This stabilized their sense of judgment and outlook later on in life because they possess a wealth of healthy wholesome memories from which to draw from.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Mothers, please be careful what example you set for your children, now don't think that I am putting all of the weight on you because I didn't mention the Father, but most times it is you who everything must come through in that home and if you don't allow it, it AIN'T happening! So be leary of who and what you allow around them, because those babies are taking notes and internalizing the rhythms that THEY will execute effortlessly as they move into adulthood.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;They&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;know NOTHING else other than what you SHOW them!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Nine times out of ten, when you see a mother tolerate getting beat time and time again in an abusive relationship, when those children had to grow up witnessing this behavior, they usually accept it as normal even when their intellectual mind tells them it is wrong, they will duplicate the action in THEIR own relationships when they are adults. We always seem to FIND what we were used to growing up with in a mate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:Comic Sans MS;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;If our Daddy was a chronically violent alcoholic, guess what? That behavior is what we knew in our first example of manhood so therefore if we do not duplicate the behavior we will tolerate it and almost derive a twisted sick pleasure FROM it! All because it brings us back to the good (Actually bad!) old days of growing up with this in our midst!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;"If" you grew up watching your mother (And I say this in a humble tone and not in a manner to hurt or put down, but we are being real here) go through dysfunctional relationship after dysfunctional relationship, being used for the pleasures that her body could give a man without holding herself up to a higher standard and demanding that she be treated like the Queen that she never realized that she was, guess what? You as her daughter will grow up to struggle with the same esteem issues and allow a man to use you as he wishes without any hint of commitment because you may feel that you have nothing of worth to offer that man to make him stay around other than the quick pleasure your various orifices can bring to him! But just wait and see how long THAT will last, you really won't have to wait TOO long!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;But&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;who can blame you if this be the case? If you never had a righteous example of divine and dignified womanhood put in front of you from birth, can you completely be at fault?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:Comic Sans MS;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Many of the young&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;men who grew up in these same circumstances with mothers who have low self esteem have grown to be a disrespector of women in their very communities. They see you walking down the street with your gorgeous self and give you a compliment to get your attention or aggressively attempt to get you to rap with them, but as soon as you are too busy to give in to their immediate need for a conversation that you have quickly detected was only for ANOTHER type of motivation, you become a B-I-T-C-H! And if you possess any less than "perfect magazine cover level high fashion model air brushed photoshopped features" about you, then they will immediately point them out to the world and say: "You ain't all that anyway!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;.................but only mere moments before they were trying to sweet talk you out of your "Victoria's Secret's!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Our&lt;/span&gt; c&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;hildren come into this world as empty vessels, a clean slate, fresh and moldable, pliable, reacting to this new world around them. Forming opinions and learning reactions, it's up to US as adults to provide the RIGHT atmosphere that will support positive growth and healthy development because if we don't do OUR jobs as we should then we will eventually and inevitably get that "three o'clock in the morning" phone call and have to hit the ATM (If we even HAVE it in these rough financial times!) for that bail money to get your child out from lockdown because these days, that man AIN'T playing with your dumb Black behind and he has a jail cell waiting for ALL of us if we do not know how to act in a civil manner!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153); font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;So as the debate rages on about the origins of our strange behaviors, whether it is learned from our environment or something deep inside of us that we are born with, the one thing we CAN agree with is that God made us in His image and we are NOT put here on this beautiful earth to act as though we are a mere step above that of a wild beast! And That is NOT what little girls and little boys are made of when they are truly taught that they are to reflect &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;the divine and righteous majesty of the image of God!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);

 &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After a time the current hot fad would fade out only to be replaced with a newer style that made the previous thing to corny to even be associated with.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was no time limit on how long a rave could last on top of the desired list of most people as it would just naturally run its course.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We look back on the different things that were popular growing up and almost feel embarrassed as we look through our photo albums and wonder what in the world were we thinking to wear the clothes that we did or even the outlandish hair styles we sported!&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But this is the way culture ran its course and developed over time, it was non predictable and very interesting to follow. Whether you wore hot pants or mini skirts (seems like more men these days like to wear those, but that's ANOTHER article's subject matter!) or a perm as opposed to Afro puffs, there was something out there to appeal to everyone! Creativity and originality was preferred and respected as it was cool to do your own thing if you didn't want to follow the crowd.&lt;/span&gt;    &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pure unadulterated uninhibited fun was the order of the day! Yes we had issues to tackle and problems to solve but we had a unity through our culture that brought us through the roughest of times!  It was revealed to me through a sermon many years ago and actually spoken by others in conversation and personal speculation that when someone wants to defeat an enemy, all one has to do is learn their habits and ways. You then infiltrate what they consider a good thing and turn it around on them. They won't even have a clue as to covert methods you have utilized to bring them to their eventual doom!&lt;/span&gt;    &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What am I talking about? Well, look at the usual things that were introduced to our communities to bring us down, the diseases, the drugs, the planned hopeless conditions that lead to frustrations that lead us as sane civil human beings to do things that even a vicious ANIMAL wouldn't be capable of doing!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now while these negative aspects things are still out here in the world in full force, we as a people are still thriving by God's grace. The devil knows this and has taken his attack to an even more intense level! He has hijacked our culture! He is a virus that has infected our various forms of expression for HIS demonic purposes and the majority of us haven't a clue as to how we are letting him in our homes to take over the minds of our children while we unknowingly think we are doing a great job of raising them! We think because we keep them home with us physically that we are keeping them from all of the bad things that transpire out in the streets!&lt;/span&gt;    &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Satanic influences are already laying dormant in your home already if you have a television or internet connection! The secret societies that exist in our midst unknowingly to us thrive and grow on the control they have on our lives, and the best way to do this is to weaken us as a people of moral fiber by hijacking the very culture from which we draw our strength from!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;The lyrics that are laced in the music that our children listen to work on their minds continually all day everyday. More so than the effect of a watered down so called word of God that you drag them into the church to hear every week.&lt;/span&gt;    &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HOLD ON NOW!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;DON'T GET ME WRONG OR MISUNDERSTAND ME!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;I am not saying the true word of God is weak and watered down!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;I am saying that if we (Meaning ALL of us!) were truly ON FIRE in our personal lives and in our worship of the Creator with total submission and obedience, we would have total control of the innocent nature of our children! If we were the true warriors in this world that we were born to be, our very communities would not be in the sorry state of affairs that they are in! Children who are born into the world as a clean slate void of all sin until becoming tainted and indoctrinated into this world's foolish transgressions. They had to learn it somewhere!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;And while YOU may not have purposely taught it to them, they are learning it on YOUR watch, on YOUR POST as a parent......right there in your HOME! Keep them off of the television set unless it is a program that you have investigated the content and actually sat through a few episodes with them to see the vibe and subliminal messages that might be infused within. Now you might say that you cannot be with them 24/7 to look over them but you MUST know that YOU have the first shot at reaching their young minds at an early age, setting the foundation and building the defenses for inevitable attack that is surely to soon come.&lt;/span&gt;    &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are creatures of habit and learn not only by studying a subject with books/ reading, but we learn more by repetition, doing a task over and over until it becomes a part of our routine, a part of our being. So let me ask you this, what are our younger generations learning by chanting these songs that contain rebellious lyrics and watching these videos that accompany the same songs with visuals hinting at promiscuity?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;While the song may not contain a curse, the video might flash a female insinuating a freakish sex act in a subtle way just fast enough to reach their subconscious mind and become a part of their expectations when dealing with the opposite (Or same, these days it seems like ANYTHING goes!) sex and a part of their being.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The enemy realizes that his time is limited here on this planet to rule and he has INCREASED his attacks on the righteous by any means necessary! This means that the innocent things that we did back in our younger days that were seemingly harmless can be downright LETHAL today in our kids life if we think that those activities are JUST as harmless!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;The power brokers who bankroll the major media productions, movies, music and all things entertainment know that sex sells! Degenerate activities are in demand! Violence is considered the preferred means of dealing with life's obstacles! There has now been created an appetite for filth that is an acquired taste from the things we have unknowingly absorbed through the various subliminal attacks on our minds!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Those in power know that if they continually advertise material items into the minds of our children, they can control what they think they want to wear, what they feel they want to eat, and how it is just fine to sleep around with whomever they choose! Most of us are no better than trained monkeys who are FOOLED into thinking we are free! We refuse to reject this evil man-made satanic pseudo culture because the paper thin covering it so cleverly wears has blinded you to what is really underneath!&lt;/span&gt;    &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our happy go lucky culture is not what it used to be for sure, and until we take back control to this chameleon like element that has permeated into our lives so sneakily, we can expect to see each subsequent generation of our youth that come forth from our own very loins deteriorate into the very essence of satan HIMSELF!&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;While I have no problem what so ever with her, because a child is ALWAYS innocent, but I have a problem with the impeccable TIMING of this annoucement. Let me ask you this: How does Michael's MOTHER feel about this imformation? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;She knew of this information from when Michael was sixteen years old but how does she feel now? Bad call Mr. Joe Jackson. You are revealing your opportunistic essence to the world right now and also giving a peek into the man that you truly are and it STINKS!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Michael Jackson left his father, Joe Jackson out of his will for a reason, and a very strong reason at THAT! Although we from the outside kind of understand what it could be, only Michael knows the full reason why. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;But look at it this way, how come we see him so much now? Why is it that a man who Michael Jackson made a HUGE statement on by leaving him out of his financial empire all of a sudden seems to be "cashing in" on what little connection he had with him BEFORE his death? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Seems like he is attempting to salvage what little connection that he had for his own benefit! Notice how he spoke of how his new label was going to "drop" soon when the focus should have been the loss of his son! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p  style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-family:arial;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Total strangers expressed extreme sorrow at the loss of Michael and even I shed a few tears when it hit me what a gift from God Michael was/IS! But Joe Jackson with his cool pimp-like demeanor and ice cold opportunistic mind set shows us each and EVERY TIME he opens his mouth what he is really all about! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;MONEY! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Even money at the expense of his personal relationships. He at some point in his life decided to make a trade-off and hasn't looked back ever since!

Pimps can use the gift of gab to get what they want in ANY situation. Pimps are smooth, velvety and seductive with their paper thin jargon. Many will fall victim to the intoxicating posturing but after a time, they will catch on to the game. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Now, we are all catching onto the game of Joe Jackson. It's just a damn shame that HIS pimp game had to be tested out on his family first before being snuffed out completely, it should be MICHAEL who woke up this morning to see the beautiful light of a new day!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

If I am to be accused of living in the past then so be it, but when all we had was channel 2,4,5,7,9,11 &amp;amp; 13, the programming was so fulfilling and entertaining!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;You and your loved ones could sit around the television set in the living room and be entertained wholesomely  without the fear of profanity being spoken or the shock of someone exposing themselves and being so bold as to share freakish acts that they like to perform behind closed doors in their bedroom where those things really should remain anyway!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p face="arial" style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span id="lw_1249456532_0" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); cursor: pointer; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Reality television&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; shows? Whose reality is this and what is the purpose for running such scenarios on the TV set anyway? Many will never understand that these programs are designed to "dumb down" the targeted viewer and have them "entertained" to the point of sedation where they will NEVER become a true mover and shaker in their very communities!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;The docile, mentally trapped viewers of these shows might as well have a needle full of heroin  stuck in their arm because the mind numbing result is the same.

It is well thought out and planned.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;The&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;companies who "sponsor" a television show, or a music concert or any commercial endeavor that will attract the attention of a large segment of society for that matter, are very shrewd in why they pick these particular venues to place the commercials to sell their product or offer their services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Watch the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="lw_1249456532_4" class="yshortcuts"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Jerry Springer show&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;, or even &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="lw_1249456532_5" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); cursor: pointer; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Maury Povich's&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; show, what kind of commercials do you see playing on these shows? Who are these commercials aimed at? What segment of society are they attempting to reach?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;On these shows you see commercials making offers to attend trade schools and they stress in these commercials that getting financial aid is VERY easy to get so that you can attend. Why do they always speak on how easy it is to get financial aid? Well because THEY KNOW through surveys and extensive studies that the majority of people who are sitting at home watching &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="lw_1249456532_6" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); cursor: pointer; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Jerry Springer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; or Maury Povich at THAT time of the work week must either be poor, uneducated,  unemployed, or getting a welfare check!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Would they&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;advertise in such a manner to the affluent segment of society?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;These shows also often have commercials that tell you that you can receive "Cash $ Gold", just mail in your scrap gold or broken pieces and they will send you top dollar for your offering! Imagine a crackhead up late at night seeing a commercial like that? SOMEBODY is going to get their chain snatched that very next day! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;LOL! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Now&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;tell me the truth and let me ask you AGAIN: Would they advertise "Cash 4 Gold" in such a manner to the affluent segment of society?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Then&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;you have these commercials that tell you what phone number to call when you get in an accident! The shrewd and slick Ghetto lawyers who know that most who watch those shows have not retained any legal counsel for their general protection but will only be looking for money when they slip and fall at the local mall on the first or the fifteenth!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Would these lawyers advertise in such a manner to the affluent segment of society?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Another play on your mind is these commercials advertising to help your life out by calling a psychic! If one has a solid plan for their life, the motivation to go after it and the discipline to stick to it then WHY would you have to call some stranger who is taxing your pocket by the minute BIG TIME while trying to keep you on the phone line as long as they can so they can have a big laugh at your expense (Literally! LOL!) as they happily run down to the bank? Would they advertise in such a manner to the affluent segment of society who doesnt have a need for false predictions because the have plenty of hope for the future?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I can go on and on with this but I think that you get the point by now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Now if you haven't realized by the examples above by now, you can definitely tell who the targeted audience of a particular television program is by the commercials that are shown revealing who the sponsors truly are!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);font-size:larger;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;Watch other programs as you play couch potato with the remote control in your hand and realize how well planned an assault that television is on your mind and actions! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: arial; color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;I hope&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 153);"&gt;this rant of mine has opened your eyes if you haven't already noticed these things already.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;There are many good reasons why one would choose to abstain from the consumption of food as well as many benefits from partaking in this very healthy practice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;One good reason to keep away from food is that so much of what we eat contains toxic substances inside that are not too good for our overall health.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;So staying away from these harmful ingredients by fasting regularly will bring us into a keener sense of well being, a happier state of mind, improved bodily systems which will serve us in a heightened way to be empowered to live a higher quality existence. What a gift for the sacrifice!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:larger;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 204);"&gt;Another good benefit of fasting is that by putting our digestive system to rest, we actually gain the ability to focus on tasks that we were previously unable to when our minds were preoccupied with the culinary pleasures of eating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But let's face it, it IS very difficult to give up the joys of caloric overload as we have gotten used to it. The urge to eat when hungry, aside from sex and sleep  is one of the greatest motivational forces in the world!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We wake up thinking about what calorie laden treat we can clog our systems with, we socialize over food, we seek comfort through food when life's stresses have us bogged down, food replaces the loneliness of the isolation that is born from a  modern day dysfunctional existence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So its very challenging to impart onto the masses the importance of not indulging in one of their favorite pastimes. Some will look at you as though you have lost your mind for even having the nerve to move your mouth to even bring up such a subject!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fasting for the benefit of our bodies health is merely just scratching the surface of what the act is truly all about if truth be told.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our will gets developed as a result of bringing under subjection our desire to eat. By resisting willingly from within knowing that we can full well give into our cravings is much harder than not having the opportunity to cheat at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the sake of space, the intangible qualities that are honed in the process of fasting may be much too vast to list, but needless to say, our spiritual eye "sees" clearer as we cleanse our bodies and mind of frivolous consumptions!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With our new found heightened intuition, we will begin to understand the magnitude of dysfunctions around us and realize that food is not the only things that we need to be fasting from!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a reason that our Creator forces us to "earn" our third eye through the diligent pursuit of denial that accompanies fasting, because with it arrives a maturity that will restrain us from "flipping out" when we realize how many fools, vipers and spiritual vampires are truly in our midst!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to fast from the FOOLISH PURSUITS and TRIVIAL ENDEAVORS!  Better yet, we need to cut out the middle man and cut the junk at the root and not only fast from the FOOLS in our lives but it is also imperative the we RUN FROM these same FOOLS as fast as we can as though our life and salvation  depends on it because it DOES!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt
