"THE GENERATIONAL FEAR FACTOR OF THE COLOUREDS"

*SIGHS*,FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE,I CAME TO TERMS WITH HAVING TO DEAL WITH PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY DAY MARES!ITS SADDENING,BUT NOT DAMNING,TO NOTE THAT PEOPLE OF COLOUR{LIKE MY HUMBLE SELF} ARE YET TO OVERCOME THEIR INNER DEMONS AS IN TERMS OF THE WORD "FEAR".THERES AN ADAGE WHICH CONNOTES & I QUOTE-"THERES NOTHING TO FEAR EXCEPT FEAR IT SELF".FROM THE SLAVE MOVEMENTS OF BLACKS SHACKLED FROM THE SUB SAHARA REGIONS OF AFRICA TO THE TEMPRATE PARTS OF THE WESTERN STATES,HAS HAD ITS ADVERSE EFFECTS ON THE PEOPLE WHO KNOWINGLY OR UNKNOWINGLY POSSES THE DARK SKIN.ITS ALL STARTS FROM THE CRADLES TO THE CLASSROOMS.WHAT PARENTS TEACH THEIR KIDS,& THE WAY THESE KIDS RELATE & PORTRAY THEIR INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERISTICS ON THE STORIES BEEN TOLD TO THEM ABOUT THEIR ANCESTORS, HAS BROUGHT ABOUT POSITIVE & NEGATIVE ENERGY.POSITIVE IN TERMS OF WE NOT WANTING HISTORY TO WRITE ABOUT US,BUT WE USING OUR VERY OWN HANDS TO CHANGE & WRITE HISTORY.FROM THE 1ST COUPLE OF THE WORLD,TO THE NUMEROUS ACCOLADES & OVATIONS GIVEN IN ALL SPHERES OF THE SOCIAL & ECONOMIC WORLD AS A WHOLE .I.E-BLACKS SWEEPING THE HIGHEST FORMS OF RECOGNITION IN SPORTS,INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM,MOVIES,SONGS,POEMS WRITTEN,PHILANTROPY,HUMANITARIAN FEATS WHICH ALL GO BEYOUND LEAPS & BOUNDS!!!BUT THERE IS STILL THIS IMPENDING INSECURITY WHICH LOOMS AROUND THE PEOPLE OF COLOUR & THAT IS "FEAR".FEAR TO BREAK THE STATUS QUO,FEAR TO DO THE RIGHT THING,FEAR TO EQUALITY,FEAR TO LOVE,FEAR TO SAY "NO" WHEN WE SAY "YES" & VICE VERSA.I WROTE ALL THIS JUST TO PEN DOWN THE GRIEVIANCES OF MY HEART & THOUGHT PROCESS!I WOKE UP TO SEE ON A SOCIAL PLATORM NETWOKING BLOG SITE ABOUT A 16 YEAR OLD WHO WAS MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD DUE TO RIVAL GANG SQUABBLES.LOOKING AT THE RECORDED VIDEO OF HOW HE PASSED AWAY,SENT DOWN CHILLS OF LOW CELSIUS DOWN MY SPINE.I HAVE SEEN SOME REALLY GROSS MOVIES,AND DOCUMENTARIES ON DEATH,BUT THERE WAS SOMTHING JUST "TOUCHING" & "PECULIAR" ABOUT THIS ONE.WHATEVER HAS HAPPENED IS A LESSON TO ALL.MY HEART GOES OUT TO ALL THOSE WHO HAVE LOST A LOVED ONE & TO THOSE WHO HAVE GOT FEAR LURKED DEEP DOWN IN THEIR LOINS,THAT LEAST THING WE COULD DO JUST TO SPARK UP THE WORLD TO BE A MUCH BETTER PLACE IS JUST IN A 4 LETTER WORD "L.O.V.E"........GOD BLESS!

"OFFENSIVE WORDS THAT COME FROM YOUR MOUTH,IF REPEATED,CAN MAKE BITTER ENEMIES"

EVERY MOUTH HAS TWO LIPS.THE HIGH LIP GIVES TO PRAISE,THE LOW LIP GIVES TO GOSSIP.WHEN WE DONT GUARD WHAT WE SAY OR TO WHOM WE SAY IT TO,WE CAN NEVER BE SURE WHICH LIP WILL REPEAT THE WORDS.THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS WHEN I HAPPENED TO READ THEIR HISTORY ON CIVILISATION GAVE THEIR WARNINGS ABOUT UNGUARDED MOVEMENT OF THE MOUTH.THEY UNDERSTOOD THE DESTRUCTIVE POTENTIAL OF WORDS ON THE WRONG LIPS.I MAY NOT BE FARMILAR WITH THESE ANCIENT TEACHINGS,BUT I DO KNOW THE IMPACT OF LOW LIP SPEAKING & ITS EFFECTS.
SPEAK HIGHLY OF EVERYONE OR JUST SAY NOTHING AT ALL.REPEAT ONLY THAT WHICH YOU HAVE A DUTY TO REPEAT & REPEAT IT WITH A NOBLE & JUSTIFYABLE INTENT.IF SOMETHING YOU SAID WENT OUT THE WRONG WAY ITS HEALTHY YOU CORRECT IT IMMEDIATELY.IF YOU QUARREL WITH FAMILY OR FRIENDS SPEAK TO THEM DIRECTLY WITH NO ANIMOSITIES FORMED.I FEEL WE OUGHT TO TEMPER OUR WORDS WITH A CONSCIOUSNESS OF EMPATHY.SPEAK THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE SPOKEN TOO.REMEMBER THAT OUR OLDER FOLKS GAVE US THE BLESSINGS OF THAT PECULIAR PIECE OF FLESH-THE LIPS;& SO I SAY,SPEAK TO PEOPLE ,WHEATHER OLDER OR YOUNGER WITH THE ATITUDE OF GRATEFULLNESS.....I HAVE SPOKEN TRUELY & DONE THAT RIGHTEOUSLY....GOD BLESS!

"INSTANT INTIMACY IS VERY OFTEN FOLLOWED BY DESPERATE DISILLUSION"

WE CAN BECOME SO EMOTIONALLY CHARGED BY A PERSON THAT WE ALLOW OURSELVES TO BE INTIMATE BEFORE WE KNOW WHO THE PERSON REALLY IS.WHEN WE GIVE OUR BODIES TO ANOTHER BEING,WE ARE GIVING THEM A PIECE OF OUR SOULS.WE MIGHT WANT TO TAKE THE TIME TO FIND OUT IF THEY DESERVE IT.SEXUAL ACTIVITY IS NOT THE ONLY WAY TO LET SOMEONE KNOW WE LIKE THEM.SHARING INFORMATION,SUPPORTING EACH OTHER"S GOALS,GIVING OF OUR TIME & ENERGY WITHOUT EXPECTATIONS SENDS A MUCH STRONGER MESSAGE THAN SEX.WE MUST TAKE TIME TO KNOW THE OTHER PERSON;UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY WANT,WHERE THEY ARE GOING & FIGURE OUT IF THEY WANT TO BE IN THE SAME PLACE.WHEN WE LET DOWN OUR HAIR TOO EARLY IN THE GAME WE ARE APT TO END UP WITH A MESSED UP HEAD...I WILL CHOOSE TIME OVER INTIMACY.(ALTHOUGH ITS EASIER SAID THAN DONE,BECAUSE MOST OF US ARE GUILTY OF THIS)

LIFE HAS TO BE LIVED,THATS ALL THERE IS TO IT.

Lets be honest,we dont really want to work at life.work is hard.work is tiring.we want to have fun.we want to play!we want to have a good time and have all the things we want.why not play the game of life?i ask my self.we are dealers.we hold all the cards.somewhere along the line,sombody cheated us.they told us we were needy,helpless and dependent.that is baggage.we must put it down in order to deal ourselves a good hand.we must also know the rules by which its govern by.we must play fairly,dealing with everyone the way we want to be dealt with.we must expect to win.if we entertain failure at any point,we lose.when we play,we must be on the look out for fouls.when we see a foul,we must call it.we dont have to fix it,but we must call it.the final and the most important rule is that we must follow all the rules,all the time.....WHEN I PLAY BY THE RULES I WIN.
