Give Me That Ole Time Religion?

Declaration of Humanity 4.0…This founding statement is different.  This one is being written in clarification of an ongoing threat of fear that ‘evil’ seems to offer more rewards than ‘good’ ever will, and more overtly the verbal Christians are flocking more openly to evils’ promise of fortune.  While this trend is alarming I must counter with this fact.  Evil has never gone out of season in America. 

Good is more than a match for evil, but the righteousness of good can only be activated from a straight line.  What is that straight line you ask?  It is the center of every human beings’ known universe.  If it is straight it is a ‘Heartline’.  A heartline from the heart to the soul because when our heart stops our deeds will be called into account.  The ‘JUDGE’ will know what you did and not what you meant to do…

ISSUE 31:  Why Didn’t Senator Tim Scott Just Wear a ‘Livery Suit’ and hold a Serving Tray as Well for God Sake?

When will this dumbass Black man Tim Scott stop making all of us look like ‘weak ass bitches’ for Republicans to ridicule and scorn?  Just look at the ‘Legacy Media’ headlines on that foolhardy attempt by President Trump to make Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell look smaller in his presence.  Did it work for Trump?  No.  Of course it didn’t.  Donald Trump looked and is the smaller less capable calculated man.

Now, can we put to rest why Fed Chair Powell is the better opponent?  I mean it is ludicrous to believe that Chairman Powell wouldn’t have his numbers right.  Do you get what I mean now when I said long ago in previous digital editions on this site that God listens to very few people in America.  Do you get it now?  Donald Trump is not one of those people God listens to!

Back to the blissfully ignorantly Senator Tim Scott from the great State of South Carolina.  If he also wore ‘Brogans’ it would have rounded out his submissive attire.  Just clickety clack down the hall behind his master Donald Trump.  What a sore sight to see.  It would have brought a tear to a Southern Belle’s eye.

I mean the ‘Legacy Media’ member Associated Press stated in their headline that Donald Trump and Jerome Powell were bickering.  Are you fucking kidding me?  That’s the problem you run into when only White people write and record the history unfolding before our eyes.  Bickering?  That’s the best most explosive headline they could come up with?  Pathetic!

Senator Tim Scott didn’t need a hardhat because his life doesn’t matter to the ‘master’.  Donald Trump would just get another house nigger to follow him around when he needs the floor wiped for him before he steps on it.  I know, I know.  Senator Tim Scott is too dark to be a house nigger.  He ‘sho’ behaves like one though.

Senator Tim Scott?  Huh?  Call this stupid motherfucker up to come humiliate himself and he quickly says, yes sir boss.  (Make sure you say ‘Yes Sir with an ‘Uhl’ in the most scared manner to avoid reprisal from the White man’).  Skinning and grinning as he giggles down the hall with that shit eating grin fixed on his face as if he was taught it by the White Supremacists that that was the proper way to look around your superiors. 

Keep creating ‘them’ new caricatures of disdain about Black people that the haters love to take screen shots of while they play back that video over and over again to howling laughter Senator Tim Scott.  I know it doesn’t matter to you, but it matters to me as I don’t want young Black men and women seeing you as the example of the strength of Black people to model their lives after.

If you are shocked at what I wrote here, you don’t know me.  I’ve lost promotions, friends, enemies, made soldiers I care about avoid me as not to get caught up in why I’m fighting for their respect, and lastly I’ve lost countless job opportunities in Birmingham, Alabama and beyond.  Oh, the money I’ve lost is inconsequential to my conscience tormenting me if I backed down from doing what was right.  No matter the cost!

Next time.  Ask Senator Tim Scott where is his serving tray?  I bet you he will start laughing like it’s a joke.

Listen everyone.  All my loyal users and subscribers.  Don’t worry about being as forceful as I am in fighting evil and injustice in this world.  At whatever degree you can is good enough.  It all adds up to make humanity better for us all when you do a little right. 

Somewhere, somebody was asking just for that little bit of hope.

By Papyrus and Parchment

Passing the word on paper in ancient times took a little planning.  Papyrus, or herbaceous perennials, is categorized as a non-woody plant.  While parchment is a by-product of animal skins from sheep, calves and goats which good students of history would know was common practice in the middle east. 

Alas, I’m not trying to give a history lesson on the writing mediums used to record important events in the history of this world.  I am trying to gain more acceptance of the ways in which we stay informed in so-called modern times.  Gatherings are still the top form of passing important information back and forth between ourselves.  While social media platforms keep us informed of many different aspects of human nature.

Whether what is passed around is good or bad, it’s a matter of a value assigned it, or we just archive what is distributed in the annals of history circa 2025.  The reason for this digital post is to share a sense of warmth, respect and hope for the field of mental health.  I have a few people I know of capable character that work at Peace Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky.  Now, granted, the situation that happened this year, 2025, was a ‘rumble’ of sorts between patients and staff; nonetheless, it was eventually contained.

The reason I’m posting about this mental health facility is that the administration there understood that some mistakes were made in deploying the right staff, and the situation was remedied.  My people, I call all who work in mental health ‘my people’, went to work there even after it happened.  You know what?  What?

Of course they are dedicated to elevating mental health care to a status on par with medical health care.  The person I know told me that Peace realized their mistakes and implemented corrections.  That’s what I’m talking about!  That is an acknowledgement that nothing would be swept under the rug in order to save somebody’s reputation.  If you made a mistake, own it!

Yes, my loyal users and subscribers of www.landcause.com, I have to give you an experience of mine in the mental health facility I worked in Radcliff, Kentucky.  No co-worker of mine wanted to ‘staff’, ‘man’, ‘bite the bullet’, on the adolescent boys unit.  It was a unit that tried every code of honor you live by.  Do you know what I’m saying?

I realized that and still showed up for work when everybody was looking on the ‘staffing’ platform and finding ways to get off that assignment.  From calling out or saying they couldn’t tolerate those boys more than every other day or no day at all.  You know what happened to me?  Some of my friends on Facebook know this, but I will share another reason why I was itching for an excuse to quit.  There I said it.

When that weak ass short in height Napolean complex useless Nursing Supervisor man came at me the wrong way that fateful day that was all she wrote.  I’d been showing up for work religiously without complaint every day I was scheduled, and this little punk ass man tried to assert his authority over me.  Are you kidding me?  I asked one of the nurses on the girls’ unit to walk me out and I quit.

I mean it was behavioral discord every shift I worked on the boys unit.  All my co-workers avoided it like the plague, but I lived by a tenet of my code.  What part of the code you ask?  This part.  ‘No body was going to run me off a job’!

That little punk ass nursing supervisor dude, I hate to call him a man because he was useless when the shit hit the fan on any unit.  Whether the unit was grown men and women, or the unit was adolescent boys or girls.  This nursing supervisor was useless in a ‘hold’ situation.

Let me tell everybody about a funny situation that happened at the Radcliff, Kentucky mental health facility.  One of my Black female co-workers was telling me about a situation where more staff was called to a unit.  One of the male techs came over was quite frankly a talkative religious man.  My female co-worker said she told him this, ‘What are you going to do?  Pray for him’?  I told her if I was there that night I would have been rolling on the floor laughing my ass off.

Spiritually, I’m there, but if we need some muscle if the situation turns bad; I need to know I can count on you.  That’s just the bottom line.

So, let me be clear.  Whether we are communicating on a paper formed from grass or animal skin.  I got to know this in mental health.  Can you not act like you are managing or for that matter working at a McDonald’s.  This ‘shit’ is real sometimes in mental health!

If you have anybody along the chain of command in mental health that is on a power trip, I suggest you make it known to the person or move on to another mental health facility that realizes the job you do can turn dangerous on a dime!

On Papyrus or parchment or on digits.  Pass the word.

Mental Health:  Equal Health

First things first is we must wrestle this false superiority of knowing what is mental health away from the general conversation about it.  Eight years of Mental and Behavioral Healthcare experience has allowed me to uncover many expert opinions about it, and all such opinions deriving from seemingly enlightened patients.  Granted some self-care explanations were on track, but being close to the answers cannot be the standard.

Therefore the philosophical nature of mass expertise is counterproductive and harmful to societies understandings about mental health in general.  What then can psychological professionals do to dampen such a kaleidoscope of untrained sufferers diagnosing complicated mental disorders?  My suggestion would be to produce a weekly periodical.  A digital application on a smart phone with current news in the field.  Produced along with a bevy of relatable leaders in the field cast on a short 30 minute weekly video.  These non-stoic professionals will raise mental healthcare to the same respectable level as physical healthcare.

Many changes have led mental health to being reconsidered as a crucial opposite to the same coin of physical healthcare.  More promotion is required if mental health is to achieve the position of equality it deserves for the benefit of humanity.

Issue 21:  The First Branch

Have you ever looked up at the Sun when it touches a tall majestic tree?  How the branch and its leaves are a bit more hardened?  How the branch looks a little parched?  More than the other branches I’m saying.  Maybe the nourishments don’t ‘clap back’ as quickly in lieu of supplying the roots, the trunk and the lower leaves with life giving water and nutrients. 

That said though, the highest branch seems to thrive and gain strength as it sways in the breeze.  How does it do it?  I mean, the tallest branch can’t be getting the first run of the harvest can it?  I mean it is at the top of the tree.  There is no shade that covers it.  No protection from the elements.  The heaviness of the rain, as it falls, ‘strikes’ it the hardest.  Maybe, just maybe, the ‘First Branch’ softens the maelstrom so the younger branches can have the luxury of time to grow strong.  To face what they must someday. 

Could that be the reason, the acceptance, the charge that the ‘First Branch’ will never be protected or shielded from what comes after those behind her protection?  The ‘First Branch’ is on top.  The ‘First Branch’ is out front.  The ‘First Branch’ sees what is coming and defends the whole.  No matter what!

From the Authorized King James of the Holy Bible.  Luke 22:42 gives us an idea of leadership.  The many facets or never uttered implied tenets that a leader of conscience comes to realize when she or he dares accept the role.  Again, may I clearly state.  I am not your spiritual advisor nor am I your priest or minister.  Jesus called for his ‘Father’, all our ‘Father’, and the ‘First Father’ did not come.  The ‘First Father’ sent an angel to briefly strengthen him.

Question for you?  What was God teaching Jesus about leadership?  Yes, yes I get it.  Everybody is under God.  What was he teaching his son about leadership?

I will tell you my belief.  It is deep.  If you wish to stop reading right here please do so. 

Okay then.  Let’s continue.

There is no one above the mantle of leadership.  I mean there is no safe harbor to pull in.  No solace or relief for the burden to be bared drops no further.  All decisions are yours and yours alone.  ‘For the horse is prepared against the day of battle’.

There is more to it, but the leader cares not for safety or the day when no strife is present.  He or she only looks at their responsibility with love and strives with the one purpose of seeing those under their authority live.  That is why the ‘First Branch’ knows the protector is out front and what must be shielded is behind.

Leadership is a lonely ‘First Branch’.  No matter the level.  No matter the sides or the line.  ‘Father forgive them, for they know not what they do’.  Do you know what the acceptance of that responsibility meant?

The ‘First Father’ needed a leader out front.  There are many fronts along the battlelines against evil.  If you wish to be a leader covering a chosen realm, then you must not hope for ‘rescue’ for there will be none coming.

The ‘First Branch’ takes it all and gives ‘charge’ for what must be done.  No matter the season or the reason. 

My closing charge to anyone claiming they are a leader.  ‘Self-care’ is your responsibility.  You may receive some ‘token’ spiritual strengthening at times, but when you ask for leadership and it is given you.  Do not long for a ‘reliever’ to save you from the ‘hottest’ front on the battlefield! 

The war against evil is eternal.

I tell you of a truth.  Chose a branch below the ‘First Branch’.  It is safer for you to do that.  Do not cost all of humanity their hope, as it would rest solely in you.
