Selfish and Greedy

Someone asked me why I was concerned about the 15 per hour? They assumed I didn’t make that.. Well you know about assumptions. It’s because people need to live, and thrive, everybody didn’t Finish school or go to college, trade, etc. etc, why? Because of…LIFE, things happen. Since the “demic” everything has gone sideways, people working making 10, 11, 12, per hour facing the Dangers from the “free facers”, working to survive, as they could not stay sheltered in, many had NO, 0, No chance, they had to take the risk to SURVIVE. So many sheltered Shellie’s and Shelton’s relied on these same underpaid people to just be .. Be over Here, over there, doing, serving, cleaning, serving, packing, where is the thank you? All these greedy Politicians making mad loot, can’t even remember what struggle is, they don’t know what the word means. But hey let’s not pay. The richest made all hit astronomical money heights, but hey, let’s not share, let us continue to hoard, be selfish and give nothing to those who need it the most. These same, will sit in their lofty positions of wealth and comfort and look down with disdain the Struggles and try to figure out how to take even more from those, so called “essentials” I worked thru the “demic” I watched the fear in the eyes of those that looked like me and those that Were in my age group, the silence, the being careful, suffering through the loss of friends and family, All the while still forging ahead. We coulda used a raise, we coulda used more than signs and singing Chanting. Sharing, caring and empathy, where did we go wrong?

The Aftermath of a Incident of Pain

Okay, he shot the boy, we know it, but I never felt he would be convicted, for many reasons. I pray the family finds peace. I pray the shooter finds the courage to tell the truth at some point in his existence. While people are saying ohhh he was a terrible child I heard he smoked weed, he cussed, he blah blah blah. The bible tells us not to judge. None of these so called supporters of the shooter are perfect or have perfect kids, don't believe me check out your kids, twitter, facebook, instagram etc..., they are kids they vent, this is their virtual diary. Wrong however is wrong, but the jury of his peers found him not guilty...so there you have it. I know God sits up high and looks down low and hears and sees all, including the dirty deeds. So we as beautiful black people have further validation, that color still matters...duh. We need to focus on loving each other more. We need to stop the violence in our own neighborhoods, we need to watch and protect each other. I&

Surprises

The thing about surprises is that you still need to be prepared to handle the suprise. I received a unexpected surprise that I longed for, so I at this moment should be blissfully stupid from love and being loved. Nope, instead, I am doing the same thing I do every weekend...karate,kids,dinner, t.v. So I had wanted to know what was up and waited patiently, my answer has been given to me.........SUPRISE!

IT WAS A GOOD WEEKEND

This was a good weekend, summer fun fest, bbq cook out and games for all, the only thing missing was ...you know, but as long as I avoid sad songs and sappy movies, I should be okay, my legs hurt, my accupressure gal says it's cause I'm worried about a man, could be, yea it is. It's been a while. Meanwhile back at the ranch I'm resisting temptation to call an ex, or get involved with the next. I'm giving me some me time, trying create a new career for me, that pays well, I'm good at what I do and somewhere somebody will pay me well for it, then I can get some new digs to live in and watch my babies grow well. So I've outlined my goals and other than a good dye job to my hair and keep exercising to avoid the broken heart= fatty food syndrome, I plan to meditate with God, and do what I always do..keep movin.
