Peace Family.
We lost a builder. He fell on the job. As we all strive to. He's dead now. Not returning to anyone... ever. The only place left for him to exist is in our memories. And remember him we will.
Peace.
I am SOOOOOOOO sick of white people. How does the president’s and vice president’s wives get booed when they are trying to show love for the troops and their families? You don’t have to agree with the president. You don’t have to agree with his views and policies. But to disrespect his woman? That’s foul!
I am an Obama supporter. I plan to vote for him a second time should he run next year. That’s my business. I recognize that folks resent him being in the highest office in this country. But he was elected. Those of y’all with my degree KNOW and Understand that Black folks are a minority in this country. Always have been. If every Black person voted for him and that was it, then we would not have gotten elected as per 3,4:10. And we all know that a lot of Black folks can’t and don’t vote. Millions of white folks cast their ballots for President Obama.
I am sick of the sheer foolishness that follows him everywhere he goes. He doesn’t put his hand over his hard when the National anthem is being played; white folks go ape shit. He doesn’t have to. All that is required of a patriot is to remove their hats if they are males. He gives children a back to school speech… like every other president has done prior…. Parents keep their children home form school. Why? What is he going to say to your children that you object too? Do well in school? Study hard? Mind your parents and teachers? The white parents don’t want a Black man to have influence over their children. So many white folks refuse to call him “President Obama.” Do they think that denying is going to make it true? Demanding that he produce a birth certificate. That is governmental isht. If folks was so hot and bothered to se it, they could have requisitioned one. The president did not need to bring it himself; nor even prove that he was born in this country. They do a credit check when you apply for a supermarket discount card. You think they didn’t check this man’s background before he decided to run for office? You saw how quick Haiti kicked Wycleff to the curb when he tried to run for president there. Are you saying the USA is behind Haiti? And regardless of what country he was born in, his mother was a US citizen. He could have been born on Mars and still had dual citizenship. Fucking idiots!
One of the things I admire and recognize about our (that’s right, OUR) president is that more so than the average Black person, Knows and Understands how to deal with the devil on a level most of us never will. His father made him and bounced. Not to another state but to another country. The elder Obama left his clearly Original Sun to be raised in the bosom of the white man. The president has stated that his grandparents were moderately racist, and his mother was frequently absent, leaving him in his grandparent’s care. SMH. That had to be hard. And he has a crazy name. Coming from this background, I trust this man to know how to handle the devil and their nastiness. But attacking his wife is uncalled for.
Men fight the battles. That’s what they do. To go after women and children is way below the belt. Did any one ever go after Barbara or Laura Bush? Nancy Reagan? Yes they went after Hillary Clinton and Rosalind Carter. I’m thinking Republicans are just a dirty bunch of crackers.
Let us explore the reasons white folks are bitching about our First Lady shall we? She has attacked childhood obesity. She installed a victory garden at the White House and she is an advocate for breast feeding. How dare she? Folks have gone as far as to infer that her husband is going to leave everybody so broke that this is the only way folks will be able to eat. Really? All First Ladies have platforms. This is hers. Folks want to imply that she is overweight. Are they blind? I suppose that is how the media portrays the Black woman so when they see one that doesn’t fall victim to the stereotype they don’t know how to react. Rush Limbaugh went as far to say she should wear yellow. WTF??? Is he a stylist now? This shit is crazy and it’s gone too far.
I realize that my blog is humble and I have 23 readers. But I don’t care. I’m a say my peace and not really care if you feel some kind of way about it.
You don’t have to like, agree, or support the President. This is a free country. But leave his wife and babies out of it.
Bitches……
Peace.
Peace,
I’m grown. A lot of people also claim to be grown. But I am not just chronologically grown. I am emotionally grown, experientially grown, and I acknowledge my own grown-ness.
When I turned 18, I was in college, completely dependant on my parents. Living in my mother’s house (when not at school), she had the ability (and took it) of telling me when I needed to be in the house or consequences would happen. That’s not grown. Oh yes I was over 18, therefore chronologically grown but not slightly close to be being able to take care of myself. I say all this to give an example that grown is not necessarily a calendar related issue.
I see folks daily, who are chronologically elevated but are dependant physically or mentally on others for their well being. I’m not speaking of employed people who work for others. And I am not referencing people who live in the wild off the grid. I’m talking about everyday people who have homes and jobs yet still aren’t “grown.” They can’t function without someone telling them what to do. That’s not being grown.
Part of the acknowledging one’s own self is accepting that the choice one makes are just that. One’s own choices. The consequences of your choices also belong to you. So if things don’t work out, don’t be so quick to blame the devil, the system , the illuminati, etc. The 1st bit of blame always splashes on self, because you made a decision that put you there. I don’t hold myself higher than accountability.
Personal Example…. I had aspirations of having a better Justice Cipher Born than I currently have. I got the requisite requirements, but it just didn’t happen for me as I had planned. Am I blaming anyone other than self? No. Shit happens. It’s all my fault and I don’t complain when the student loan payments come out of my check. They are entitled to that money and I gave my word saying I’d pay it back. Me. I’m grown. Am I working and striving for betterment? Always. But I recognize when all is said and done; some folks just have better luck than others. And I’m not attributing my situation to something arbitrary, but in the grand scheme, somebody always takes a hit and I suppose in my situation that person is me.
Am I saying that bad things can't happen that are completely out of control? Of course not. Those little boys abused at Penn State did not bring that on themselves. But look at each situation for what it is and you will find your kernel of responsibility for it.
I think it is funny that folks take all the credit when windfalls come their way and love to blame others for problems and situations.
Peace
Peace Y’all…..
I am hesitant to Build on this topic. But I see a need to. My mother (NOT old Earth) used to caution me that when making Knowledge Born on a particular topic, which could be interpreted as my opinion, and even occasionally not… Make sure that 1st it is necessary and 2nd that it’s nice. She had a 3rd bit that one was religious and not relevant to this Build. So I see this conversation to be necessary. And I will strive to be nice…. But don’t hold me to it.
PEACE!!!!
Earths… My sisters…. My E-likes….. We gotta do better. Seriously…. With our 3/4ths.
There has been a lot of noise on the FussBook, I mean FaceBook cipher regarding the tendency for Gods to date 85 women. It is our Nation’s dirty double standard secret. Earths have it tough in our Nation. Gods get to make many decisions for us that would never be applicable to themselves. Gods date who they chose; that can include colored women. Earths date Gods. Earth may be able to date conscious 85ers that add on to our programs but that’s pretty much it. If said 85er goes to a mosque or church on the weekend, she’s unofficially done being Earth. Not saying that Gods don’t draw up women and “Make” Earths. Should their relationship end, the Gods will move on to the next 85 woman. I am not saying ALL Gods do this. Mine didn’t. But a lot do. Hmmmmm…. This really begs the question of what is the appeal of 85 women vs. a true and living Earth?
Now… Lets remove from the equation, that Gods are not looking for women who challenge them to live righteously…. Not our Gods! Every single one of our Gods are all wise and are moving in the direction of civilizing all the families of the planet Earth. Amen Lights! That is another Build. So what’s left? What is the allure of these 85 women? I mean as women they have the same anatomy as Earths…. They provide the same functions as Earths… at times. The only difference between them and us is appearance (our Culture is reflected through appearance). 85 women must be more physically appealing than the 5%-women to the Gods. Gods are men and men have a thing for visually attractive (to them) women.
It hurts me to say that….. I have seen our women accept 3/4ths and become busted. 3/4ths does NOT give Earths permission to just fall the hell off. It requires and challenges us to find a style that is reflective of the beauty of our Culture.
Since your head is covered, you don’t have to do your hair? Now Cipher. You wear your head covered at home as well as abroad? You sleep with it and shower with it covered? Probably not. Do your hair. Hell and when you are putting on your wrap, do it like a reverse strip tease so the God gets excited…
I know a lot of Earths who think 3/4ths is floor dusting skirts, like the kind the Hijabis wear. It’s not. I wear some floor dusters on occasion but I normally wear skirts that come past my knee is such a way that when I sit they don’t ride up and show the goodies. I wear legs out, but not knees and thighs out. What? 3/4ths is about proportion. I’ll wear said skirt with a blazer or a ¾ length blouse/jacket/top sleeve. Or not. Sometimes I wear it with my arms out. But my head is always covered. If one was going to wear something strapless and backless, that should be paired with a long skirt and a head wrap. That is the only proportion I would hit with a must.
¾’s does not mean neglecting your skin, or natural appearance. This is a tricky one. Most make up is made with swine byproducts. And some can argue that make up is “made him other than his own self” ala 12:36. I have found cosmetics at the health food store that are swine free. And as far as making oneself look other than one’s own self, that’s in the application. If we take care of our skin, then we won’t have the need for make up. If we have healthy white teeth, you don’t need lipstick. Then even applying Carmex on the lips will look like a cosmetic. I know I probably shouldn’t say this but it is truth, if we get ourselves healthier bodies, then we can turn heads. There is no rule or regulation that says our clothes have to be baggy. We can wear fitted gear. Nothing looks sexier than health.
And there is no law against accessorizing. Belts show off our waists. Adornment in the form of jewelry is always helpful, not that Earths normally have a problem with this one. Get your tips and toes done and wear pretty shoes. Pretty shoes…. Pretty shoes…. How many times do I need to say that? Pretty shoes and feet can turn a man’s head. Why should not our men look at US????? Make your head wraps attractive rather than utilitarian. Smell nice. Make the Gods want to be near you. Have them seek out your presence
Ladies the bottom line is if you look good, you will look good to the God. If you look good to your God, then you will look good to other Gods. And if you look good to other Gods, you God will remain interested. Case closed. Stop giving my Earths bad reps and handle your appearance game. I grow tired of seeing my sisters looking like homeless bag ladies. Ladadee ladada, Ladadee ladada…..
Woman Up!!!!!
Peace
Peace Y’all,
I was building this morning with another Earth and we were discussing today’s Supreme Mathematics…. As we all should daily! And today being the Culture day, plus I’m pissed at some non-related issue, I was just thinking about Culture/Way of life as it applies to us/NGE and others. Travel me on this…..
Jews, Muslims, Amish, Mormons, etc. all have a way of life that is inclusive of their religion. Meaning if you know anything about their religion you can recognize them without them having to tell you who they are. While in grad school, it was easy to tell the Jewish students from the Muslim students from the traditional Indian students and so on. It wasn’t because they announced their faith or wore a t-shirt with their denomination printed on it, but because they just simply lived it.
Still in the past, I’m thinking about my bid as a Christian. Christians have is so easy. They do what they want because no matter what Jesus loves them. So they can hoe, kill, rob, strip, bang, whatever and still ask for forgiveness (and don’t forget paying that protection money) and they are good. Okay. I saw on HBO’s Real Sex, strippers, naked, holding hands in a circle praying for good luck in the Miss Naked Black Chick contest. So it’s hard to tell the Christians apart from the general public unless they are clergy. And the only time I see clergy repping their trade off the clock, is when it benefits them in some way. Like parking or something. Some truly devout Christians will have a doily on their heads or a crucifix or something. But even the jewelry isn’t a true giveaway. So how do you rep the culture of the masses?
Back to the present…. I’m an Earth. When you see me coming you can see I’m the Earth. The God ain’t shamed to be a poster boy for our Nation. When he goes abroad, for the most part, he has on a crown and a flag, wanting… hoping…. Eager for someone will ask any sort of question. I’ve witnessed him getting funky in IHOP. I say this to ask, what kind of God or Earth are you? Are you the closet on vacation type? That gets head wrapped and flagged down on the last Sunday of the month but no one would know any other time. Like you keep your crown and flag in the glove compartment and put it on, on your way to the cipher? Or are you keeping it real Understanding Equality Power days of the year?
I ain’t ‘bout to get in your business. You know where you stand.
Peace
Peace.
This morning I found myself with the strong need to distract myself from this Troy Davis business. I mean a death bed proclamation of innocence… So I decided to peruse something that I knew would have a benign effect on me. This is what I found…. http://aspiring-homemaker.blogspot.com. I spent all morning looking at this site.
At first I thought, “I wonder what religion they practice?” that has them dressing so modestly. Even more than this Earth. Then I thought, “What is it these people do that can allow them to live like this?” And finally, and more importantly…. “Why?”
Now I’m cool with the homesteading thing. It is my opinion that we are losing a lot because of technology. Cooking, sewing, people are ignorant of how food gets to the market…. Has all changed because of technology. And we are becoming more and more technologically savvy, but more and more dependant on the same technology that is aiding us. I am an advocate of finding a happy balance. But is the above blog balanced? Is this type of existence something we should aspire to?
I am starting my fall garden this weekend… but I am starting from seedlings… I missed the planting time, sue me! And I bake a lot in the fall. I make rejuvelac in that fall and winter. I bake bread in the fall and the winter. I also plan on getting some chickens. But I use my internet, my car, my HDTV and satellite and whatever till the cows come home. I like to think I’m balanced. My father used to call me old school because I didn’t own a microwave or an electric can opener. Didn’t (and still don’t) want one either.
So tell me how y’all see this. Are you dependant on the external ciphers? Do you do anything that could be considered homesteading?
Peace
Peace!
Lately I have been inundated with the folks jaw-jacking on how the world is working. I say jaw-jacking because that’s all they are doing. All this talking is yielding no action.
Obama is screwing up the economy and country… Umm… do the 1. The country was screwed up since its inception. Bush fucked us royally with no lube. And the people crying ain’t ever had a good gold flow. But I suppose it’s easier for those that have been taught to eat the wrong foods and who like the devil when the devil gives them nothing have an easier time assigning blame to folks that look like themselves rather than the devils that actually did it. Teach yourself some politics before you repeat what you hear.
The Black woman is at fault for fucking and bossing the Black man. This has resulted in babies without daddies and the destruction of the Black race! Really? Dumb mother fuckers… You don’t see that what you are bitching about is not new? That people, Black and white, have been having children out of wedlock and with multiple partners for millennia? Are you really this uninformed? Have you not realized that the instances of teen pregnancy are at an all time low… since the 1940’s! And the Women who are currently making babies are old enough to afford it without Medicaid. Yeah, you don’t get to tell grown women when and where to procreate and how to spend their money. That is eugenics and eugenics is wrong.
The problem I cee is that people (a) are just plain ignorant/full of themselves, thinking that other people actually care how strangers see them and (b) are focusing on what they ideologically would like to have rather than what the literally do have, can have, and should have. EXAMPLE: I have a former friend whose brother hit the lottery for millions. Not wanting to leave any on his family behind, he offered non cash gifts to them and set up college accounts for their children. For this former friend, the brother offered to purchase her a brick and mortar home. 100%. She, a customer service rep who had a GED and that’s it, went out and chose a home that cost $250,000. And this was before the housing market collapse. The brother asked her, how she’d pay the insurance, taxes and utilities because after purchasing the house, for her she would be on her own. Even suggested that she buy a smaller dwelling. Nope. Girlfriend had her heart set on that big assed, quarter of a million dollar house. She lived in that house for 2 years, with the utilities in a constant state of flux. She eventually lost it to taxes. Now she lives in a ghetto apartment complex… again. See what I mean? Even if she had sold it, she could have pocketed all the money since the house was in her name. She wanted something that she wasn’t ready for and didn’t have the mind set to conquer.
It is a statistical fact that in Original homes in the wilderness of North America, are more than likely governed by single mothers. That is the reality. It would be nice if it wasn’t but how can another control what grown folks do? Especially when it comes to sweet, sweet love. Folks are already creeping. We are going to get it in. But mandating that a woman marry her “baby daddy” is stupid. Which one? And which one of the “baby mamas” should the man marry? Polygamy? Again stupid. Men now a days can’t handle 1 woman. Do you really think by loading him up with more is going to work out better? What folks need to do is focus on the reality of the situation rather than what they want to see. Because that is usually poisoned by religion, media, and a whole bunch of other dumb shit.
You have women who have a bunch of kids with a bunch of men and no jobs…. Get them jobs. Babies... no, EVERYBODY need food, clothing and shelter. Universal healthcare would be nice too. Give them education to go along with the jobs. Education leads to dreams. Dreams lead to temperance. EXAMPLE: When I was a child, I dreamed of becoming a doctor. That included 8 years of expensive education after high school. I saw girls with babies in high school that couldn’t even finish their GEDs! I knew if I wanted said vocation, I had to be careful when loving. And I did. I achieved my ambition, because I was allowed to dream. But if you have a woman with no dreams whatever happens, happens.
And yes I agree that this economy is shitty. Real shitty. We have to accept that. And if you really look at the situation, it will not go back to what it was in the past. Companies now a days have laid off chunks of their work force. Those remaining, in fear for their jobs, have picked up the slack and said companies are still turning out the same production. Why would they ever rehire the people they laid off? Why should they pay more salaries and benefits to turn out the same production? Does that make sense to you? Companies still hire, but they are only hiring what they can’t function without.
So where does that leave us? We need to be mindful of living within our means and that also includes living off 1 salary. Now I know that sounds foreign to a lot of people, and retro to others. But it is done every day. I see single mothers with 4 kids making things happen. If you have a nuclear family with 2 kids and all the parts; and 1 parent works, the other parent can cook, clean, provide daycare, etc. And they just have to live within the working parent’s means. It can work. I’ve seen it. The people in my parent’s generation had what I consider truly shitty jobs. My father in law worked at a dry cleaners yet owned 2 homes and raised 7 children and assorted grandchildren. My mother has a friend who worked on the line of Nabisco and supports her husband (who was always chasing some dream) home and 2 kids. The God’s father was a steel worker with a home, stay at home wife and 2 seeds. Think of your grandmothers who did “day work” yet managed to send children to college. It can be done. But sacrifices will have to be made, and re-education is required.
Considering today’s Supreme Mathematics Wisdom Knowledge abbt Understanding, Yes Knowledge + Wisdom yields Understanding, and for some this may be the preferable (Right) way to do things, but the reality (Universal- because this is the way things work for most people) is many gain their Understanding by reacting to events in their lives (Wisdom) first then they have to figure out (Knowledge) The solutions (Understanding). And if the result is the same… Well then we can dwell on the particulars in the next generation.
We have shit to do. Let’s do it.
Peace
