No matter how much you try you will never escape the madness of your reality

This brings up another life lesson that blacks need to understand.

Yesterday Stephon Marbury was on his 24 hour internet show he has in his house.

He ranted on for a long time about God knows what.

He put his finger in some vaseline and ate it.

Then he just started crying for a few minutes all of a sudden.

When i heard about his tirade i really felt sorry for the guy.

Then i realized why he acted the way he did and i still felt saoory for him even more.

Marbury used to be one of the best ball players in the league.

He was easily in the top 20 every year in scoring.

His career started to drop slowly and last year he hardly scored two points a game in the playoffs.

Obviously he was feeling a lot of pressure (and the drugs (probably e-pills) didnt help much either).

The lessons i got from this tirade was that money obviously doesnt buy happiness and you need to have a goals you are always striving for.

Rich people get rich and just stop striving for anything because they feel that having lots of money should sufficient.

It's not.

You ever heard the saying that "an idle mind is a devils workshop?"

This is what happens when you dont have over arching long term goals that you are struggling mightily tp achieve.

The mind will turn against itself without a clear purpose.

This happened with Rick James.

This man made so much money in the 80's that he didnt have to make any more money for the rest of his life.

He didnt have any goals so he just said "let's party" and smoked his brain out with drugs and crack.

He died young because his body couldnt handle the constant abuse.

You need long term hard to reach goals or you are going to kill youself.


It's just as simple as that.

Guess What Gates, You Still A Nigga!

The Honorable professor of Afrikan Studies at the esteemed college Harvard University ran into some rough business with a policeman in Cambridge the other day.

He was coming home from China when he inserted his key into the hole and found out he couldnt get it unlocked (he later said that his key had a tendency to jam).

So he went around the back to see if he could get in that way and when he was trying to find an alternative way to get into his place one of his neighbors (who were probably white because he lives in a predominantely white neighborhood) called the cops because they didnt know who he was.

So the white police officer comes to his house after he broke in and asked him to show him ID stating that he was who he said he was.

Gates shows the guy his Masaachusets drivers liscence and his Harvard University ID.

The police officer isnt satisfied so he goes outside and calls Harvard (because Gates could be a con artist).

Gates gets upset and starts saying things like "why are you doing this? is it because im a black man in america?"

LOL!

No its because you a NIGGA!

Anyway, Gates gets so irate that he fusses and fusses until the police officer locks him up and calls it a day.

See Gates thought that he was exceptional because he was a Harvard professor.

He thought that he could get away with slick talking the police (like middle and upper class whites do all the time) and still get away with it.

He was wrong.

I remember seeing a documentary by Gates on the poor and the middle to upper class Blacks and how these 2 classes are so different from one another.

On a certain scene where a black man from the inner city was talking about the plights that he went through in his inner ciity community, Gates said, "this guy seems like an alien to me."

implying that he was nothing like that guy.

Well the white officer treated him as if he was that kind of a guy that night.

And then on another scene of the same documentary Gates says he heas more in common with his white colleagues than with black men in the inner city.

The police officer saw you and the brothers in the inner city as one and the same.

So when are we going to wake up?

No matter whether you slumming in the hood, or living it up in your condo.

Shoping at the local swap meet, or patronizing some high priced italian designer in Palm Beach.

You can be driving a 2009 380 Mercedes Benz or diving a 1981 Hatchback,

YOU STILL A NIGGA, NIGGA!

And eventually you will run into the right cracker who will bring that super inflated ego down to reality.

Peace!

The Last Samurai and the Power of Symbolic Thought

This was a very emotional movie.

I experienced so many different feelings throughout my viewing that i was almost exhasted after it was over.

The movie was about a fictional character named nathan algren who went all around the world helping the united states military invade and conquer different societies (indian nations, asian nations etc.)

In the begining they showed flashbacks of when he and other soldiers shot innocent men, women and children unmercilessly in the back to clear the land for white corporate interest.

I lost it after i saw that emotionally because i couldnt help but think about how our ancestors in afrika were ruthlessly killed by these europeans.

They didnt stand a chance.

The european already had a lot of training conquering different indigenous territories and he knew that wouldnt be able to outlast the military strategy and advanced weaponry that the european had in store for them.

They murdered countless hundreds and thousands of victims slaughtering them as if they were animals.

Cecil Rhodes (a belgian debtor) with his army for the belgian government took over the territory of what is now zambia and zimbabwe.

There were about 30 million people in this area when he got there.

Only a few years later there were only 10 million natives left (and this history is well documented and solid).

Not to mention the wholesale enslavement of our people by the millions.

Never ever ever ever forget the murder and death our people encountered at the hands of these people.

It's time to get your weight up people!

Time's a wasting (with me at least).

We have to start doing the right things in our lives so we can move on to the next level of our development.

I'm 28 years old and i am still struggling from day to day with my finances because im too lazy and complacent to go out there and take the world by the horns and get what i want out of life like i know i can do.

Im tired of being a fuck up.

Im tired of being the black sheep of the family.

I'm tired of being an underachiever.

Im going to get myself together this year.

Im going to achieve a lot this year, i know it.

I am going to make these last 5 months the best 5 month span i ever had.

I am going to take more risks and come out of my shell more and live a little bit more for the rest of the year.

I am going to change my life for the better.

You'll see.

Homosexuality: Genetic or Cultural

There are a lot of homosexuals out here and it seems like more of them are croping up everyday.

I dont have any problems with these people but i dont buy the notion that some of us are born like this.

Many of us were made like this by the culture we grew up in.

I think homosexual acts (especially between men) are disgusting.

But i am interested in learning how these people came to engage in the type of behaviors they engage in with the same sex.

I'm a student of human nature so i cant help it.

One of the sources of information i recommend for people who want to study the nature of homosexuality is Patricia Newton in her lecture "Early Sexual Trauma."

Another good source is Francis Cress Welsing.

Let's talk about why some poeple take on this way of life.

One theory is that many men who were abused sexualy by other men when they were young (before 12) will grow up to become homosexual or bi-sexual (a study was done on this issue by health professionals at the former hosptial Providence in Baltimore in the 1980's) .

Strangely enough for the guys who were molested after 12 it was a different story.

For those who were molested after 12, they somehow stayed straight, but many of them grew up to hate women because they never forgave their mother for allowing this horrible event to take place (they erroneously blame their mother).

Francis Cress Welsing suggests that some men are gay because they are trying to compensate for the male affection they lacked as a child.

Many men grew up without fathers or didnt have strong role models who were there all the time to give us the manly love that we need in order to grow properly.

Men know what im talking about.

I rememebr when i was a child.

Sometimes i wanted a hug from my father, and he gave me one.

Maybe boys need this kind of affection from influential men in their life or they wont grow properly.

So with the gay guys out here, engaging in the sexual activities they engage in may be a way to make up for not getting their hand held by a strong male figure (such as their father) when they were walking down the street.

Or for not getting the hugs, the kisses, the rubs of the head and so forth that they lacked at a young tender age of development.

Im not saying all brothers who didnt have this growing up will be gay.

All Cress Welsing is saying (im not saying anything) is that this might be the case with the very few ones who decided to go down this route.

Another reason could be because they make a profit from that kind of behavior.

In baltimore there are a lot of male whores, and many of them catch the bus and congregate with the regular population.

I was sittin gon a bus stop on north ave. in baltimore and some of these people came inside the bus stop to sit down too (i guess they were tired after all their ho-ing lol).

So i was curious about how much they made so i asked the guy that was in there "excuse me, how much do you typically make during the week."

This dude (who obviously looked like a man) told me that he made anywhere from 700 to 1000 dollars a week (sometimes even more).

I was flabbergasted.

This dude did not look like a woman at all probably one of the ugliest drag queens i have ever seen.

He could have been lying though.

The point im trying to make here is that many males get a profit from having sex with other men.

This goes on all the time in baltimore.

We have to give our brothers other options other than having sex with other men in order to make a decent living.

This was a subject that was on my mind and i wanted to discuss it with you.

Hope i didnt gross too many people out lol.

What do you think?
