The Death of my Mother changed me


To those of us who are dealing with the loss of a mother and she was your rock , you could be miles away and she could read you like a book,then you know what I mean, my mom raised me to be considerate of others but she also raised me not to be a fool she told me to always keep God in my life she taught me to love and honor my wife and always remember I am just as good as anyone else, within the last 6 years I have been relying on everything she has taught me since I no longer have her in this life, I hinge on every word she’s taught me I miss our talks it was her and only her with her very strong words that could pull me out of the gutter when life’s troubles pulled me down now I have to pull myself up by the boot straps and use what she’s taught me Rest in Power Mama this old world ain’t the same without you.

Family Matters


Yes you read this right family matters and no I’m not talking about the the 90s sitcom with Carl Winslow and Steve Urkel ,I am talking about what’s going on in our society as of present day, everything is easy accessible to our younger generation such as cell phones, laptops and other electronics to the point it has become babysitters and tutors as to only a few short years ago it was either big brother or sister who was baby sitting , grandma was 60 years old or older now grandma is 33 and still wet behind the ears,it used to be once you’re 18 it was time to man up and and see what you’re made of now we have 40 year olds working for minimum wage , playing on video games and running up the utilities, toddlers are cursing but can’t adequately use the bathroom for themselves , young girls and boys think having children themselves makes them mature,my philosophy on that is this imagine yourself riding on a back country road on a hot summer day with your windows down you look up and see an approaching car he stops and says I just wanted to let you know it’s raining back there I see you are headed that way now might want to let your windows up at that point you have two options you can listen to the driver and roll your windows up because he’s been where you are going or ignore him and have a rain soaked interior because you didn’t listen to someone who has been where you are headed no matter the technology that comes out or the styles or what have you life is and always will be life you will have to earn respect and you will do that by first getting a education ,then by being able to be self sufficient, be respectful to others by treating them as you would want to be treated if you father or mother a child into this world it is your responsibility not the government, the easy fast way of getting money will land you in prison or dead, guys learn the value of a woman they are not property they can and are allowed to make decisions and think for themselves, girls first value yourself never chase after anyone because you’re the prize the paycheck doesn’t run you down you have to get up and get out to make the paycheck don’t put your time and effort in into a man that only see you as pleasure time and nothing more, parents when your children are grown it’s time to let them find their own way so you will know just how good of a job you’ve done they will return how they were raised and it will never leave them , children once you’re grown you should want to be on your own because whether you agree or not if you live in your parents house no matter if you’re 35 45 55 you should respect the fact that that it is their home if you don’t like the rules get a job and get your own place, same as when you’re on a job don’t like your supervisor or team leader get a education and get your own business become your own boss, husbands besides your children your wife should be your top priority nothing comes before her when a situation arises come together in discussion and move forward from there she is not your daughter, she is not your property she is your help mate, wives be in support of your husband when he’s in accordance to what God says a husband should be cook and clean together if you both work do house hold chores together because you’re considerate of each other and if you want a faithful man you know what else you need to do because if you don’t mow the lawn someone else will, now if you have a male whore who is womanizing he should tell his story walking, families in general don’t just wait until there’s a funeral it’s too late for a reunion then I am sure this all fell on deaf ears but I did my part I put it out there no I’m not a saint and I haven’t always been right but I do know what works just keeping it real never can get too educated not be educated this is my opinion don’t have to like it but it’s the truth be blessed.

I’ve learned


I’ve learned that when people say they love you, it’s just the opposite, I’ve learned that the people who claimed to be your friend or the very same ones planning your demise, I’ve learned that when people say they have your back are the ones throwing knives in it, I’ve learned that people who calls themselves christians are the ones full of hatred I’ve learned if you don’t love yourself nobody else will, I’ve learned that the people who judge you don’t have a heaven or hell to put anyone in I’ve learned I must first love me before I can love anyone else I’ve learned I am just as good as the next person I’ve learned only God knows me, only God will judge me, only God can love me like nobody else can these are my thoughts at this time wishing everyone a blessed weekend.

My opinion


In the last several months we have heard about NFL players should leave the country because they kneel during the playing of the national anthem,or the lack of compassion when imigrant parents are separated from their children after illegally coming into this country But after all the facts from our intelligence agencies has confirmed that in fact the Russians did interfere in our electoral process, this is the same man that for years claimed that the 44th president Barack Obama wasn’t an American citizen, says he wants to make America great again sided with a KGB dictator known to overthrow other sovereign nations such as Crimea ,the Ukraine and some of these Republicans are more worried about keeping their seats in Congress than upholding and defending the honor of the United States of America I don’t want to hear anything else about NFL players disrespecting veterans and flags because as I recall none of them ever sided with the a enemy of the state tell your story walking and I intend to do that with my vote.

Telemarketers and Spammers


It has become a epidemic at least where I live and on this site for telemarketers and Spammers to overwhelm my phone with unwanted phone calls and spam that has nothing to do with this site such as home loans , etc this site has nothing to do with loans of any kind whatsoever, telemarketers are now tapping into local numbers as if they are in the same town these are mobile numbers and when you call in response the person answering has no recollection of the phone call if anyone else done this it would be considered harrasment so on yesterday I exercised my American right by voting in the primary at this time I would like to address my local and state representatives to put an end to this harrasment pass some kind legislation to stop these clowns from tapping into people’s private phone numbers and website harrassing people the rest of us has rights too this is merely my opinion have a blessed day.

Your sneaky slurs are not appreciated


It is one thing to feel a certain way but to have the audacity to insult a person due to their ethnicity is outrageous , I am not talking about what’s going on in the news , I am talking about what happened to me while on a forklift an associate told me I looked like a black turd on the forklift regardless of how he meant it I drove by and spoke kindly I was greeted with what I felt was a insult,it had been a long hot day we had demands that needed to be met so I wasn’t in the mood to play tit for tat , I can not speak for a whole nationality of people nor will I ever speak against one but DO NOT CALL ME A FRIEND if you have the ideology that you’re better than someone because of melanin or lack thereof in your skin I don’t want anything to do with you I can put up with many things, you can have whatever sexual preference you want that’s between you and God I have my beliefs and we’ll still be cool, you can choose not to even worship God or believe in Jesus we’ll still be cool that’s on you I will give my opinion but at the end of the day it’s on you, but I will not except any kind of bigotry I see no sense in it to me it’s on the same level as a child molester there’s just no sense in it whatsoever so with your sneaky slurs that I’ve heard so many times from pictures of a klansman in a watermelon patch to scandally clad dressed white women in my inbox , don’t dare think that all of us salivate over things like that some of us are far more mature yes my wife of 25 years is white I fell in love with her as a person but before her my dream was with a person of my ethnicity my wife has been good to me she’s been by my side since day one and that’s a treasure no matter the race you can support whatever ever political candidate you want but don’t ever under any circumstances bring your ignorance bigoted racist rhetoric to me because I will not hear of it I said it once I will say it again crap stinks no matter the color of the butt it comes from so any of my Facebook associates or other social media accounts don’t like people who looks like me or if you’re a person that looks like me and don’t like others because they don’t tell your story walking I have enough serious problems to be dealing with than to be dealing with stupidity this is my opinion of the matter be blessed.

242 years of so-called independence


Well it’s the day after the 4th of July the 242nd birthday of the United States Of America, a day of fun,festivities,and fireworks,and even political protests at the iconic statue of Liberty, As we enter into the 243rd year of existence ,what will our stance in the World be, other than the richest nation on earth, other than #1 superpower, will it continue to be a beacon of hope,land of opportunity or will we become the most hypocritical nation ever, For years we have sent our soldiers into harms way to fight for the liberties of other nations and their people only to divide our own,I say when we use the phrase America first it shouldn’t just be about trade it should be about liberty and justice for all , what that means is whether you’re of the Christian faith or other Faiths, whether you’re black or white ,whether you’re born here or immigrated here, whether you’re gay or straight,whether you’re liberal or conservative we all deserve to be heard, respected and valued as a human being these are my two cents ,Have a blessed weekend
