As I sit comfortably, I wonder what thoughts would arise in my mind in this particular moment of serenity on my couch? Would the ‘crease’ of information cast a shadow over which thought would rule in that moment? Is that the most important ‘concern’ that must be addressed, or that thought that would make humanity lose ‘decency’ and ‘order’ rule the debate?
It is long known that Black people make calculations based on spiritual clarity for all given situations. Now the keys to this discernment was taught to all of us long ago in the ‘fold’. The ‘fold’ is the place, the energy, where the two choices lie. The barrier between the ‘fold’ is the darkness that separates called the ‘crease’. As Black people, we don’t necessarily chose the option that is free of ‘shadow’. Black people choose wisely between the two choices available because making no choice is worse.
So, we use a ‘pick’ to break the surface to know what’s underneath, or we use a ‘shovel’ to remove the debris and clutter that hides the ‘purpose’ beneath.
Issue 11: ‘And they were not afraid of the king’s commandment’
Like I said, ‘You don’t get to be a tough guy or gal beating your chest after someone else vanquishes the evil ravishing the lands’!
That’s right. That’s my title. I took it from Hebrews 11:23: Yeah. If I hear another television personality say Donald J. Trump will be gone in two and half years I’m going to lose my shit! Really? What about all the people that can’t live the lives they have a legitimate say in living because Donald J. Trump is giving all our tax dollars to the wealthy. Yeah again? All the wealthy just feasting it up in ballrooms big beautiful banquet style. Don’t worry. The Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Ballroom will be open. Soon enough. Do me a favor and say, ‘Soon enough’ in your best old western slang tone of voice. Jut out your jaw on the ‘noughhh’.
I applaud Scott Pelley. Great. Good job. I hope he knows that ‘people’ that worked ’60 Minutes’ into the lore and legend stood out front of the name and not behind it. Yeah. That old foolish American slang of, ‘I stand behind what I said’ never made any sense to me. Whatever comes of your effort, your life, is the testament to your life! Your life isn’t a banner headline! Your life is the legacy of energy you direct to the causes you champion. Yes sir. Your causes can be good or evil. Hint for Donald J. Trump.
You don’t get to talk shit when the bully leaves the room. You defy the evil while it stands in the room with you. I did. I still am fighting my mortgage company, Onity Mortgage Services. I gladly stand against evil and injustice! Stop thinking it costs you money. Start thinking it is costing you freedom from a guilty conscience. Like I say often. I work in mental health and if I’m not courageous enough to put down violence when I, my patients and my co-workers are assaulted; I should not have taken the job.
The same goes for positions of trust in America. The quote, ‘free press’ is a joke in America. Yes, I said joke. Every interaction with elected officials can’t be glossed over. If somebody and I mean anybody called my colleague quote, ‘quiet piggy’, I’d show tell that bloated buffoonish man Donald J. Trump there must not be any mirrors in the White House. You don’t let a fool insult a woman because that ass clown Donald J. Trump can’t handle the office he chose to corrupt.
The PARENTS of Moses defied the Pharoah! Moses simply carried on the mandate bestowed upon his energy by the energy of his parents. The parents made or ‘picked’ their side. So did you America!
You don’t get to beat your chest when the threat is gone. Shit don’t work like that homeboy! I’m about to cancel the first 3 of my streaming services. These rich folks don’t care about stepping on the ‘crumbs’ falling from their ballroom tables so dogs or hungry children can eat them? Fuck all of those rich greedy pieces of shit!
Americans who vote for them can cry themselves to sleep in their pillows. That’s what you want? That’s certainly what you are getting! Yeah. If I was Iran, I’d fuck with Donald J. Trump for months even years because we have not repented as ‘the Lord’ repented when he chose Saul to be King over Israel.
‘Your slip is showing’. If you’re not from the South ask somebody who is from the South what that saying means.
Be well.
