Look At Me

look at me, what do you see, look at me
when I look at you, I see a pinkish looking person
but you prefer to be called white

I see you for all that you are, and all that you endeavor to be
look at me

when you look at me you see a black person
but you prefer to say that you see no color at all
look at me

when you say that you see no color at all, your saying that I do not exist
look at me

your degrading me and trying to make me feel insignificant
not worthy of you even saying that you see me for the black woman that I am
look at me

for I am someone with so many good qualities to offer my community
look at me

with a smile on your face, you call yourself my friend
"yes my friend" you know exactly who I am 

for the blood that runs through your veins also runs through mine
look at me, what do you see, look at me

I am the Great granddaughter of mother Afrika!
look at me, what do you see, look at me
 
I am the Great granddaughter of the first peoples of the Americas!
look at me, what do you see, look at me

I am the Great granddaughter of the European slave owners!
look at me, what do you see, look at me 

I embrace all that I am, for I know who I am

My Heart Weeps For Humanity

MY heart weeps for humanity
I pray for the people of the World.
Endemics, earthquakes, floods and hurricanes
devastating people's lives.

Children being slaughtered in their classrooms, by weapons of war!
My heart weeps for humanity
People are being slaughtered in their Churches, Grocery stores or just sitting out watching a parade, by weapons of war!
My heart weeps for humanity
Our children are living in fear.
Our parents are living in fear.
Our seniors are living in fear.

While politicians continue to play with our children's lives
all because of greed, they have no empathy for the other.
They seem to think that this epidemic of weapons of war! it has nothing to do with them, until it comes to their home.
My heart weeps for humanity

The words of SAI--BABA comes to mind.
Politics without principles
Education without character
Science without humanity Commerce without morality, are not only useless but positively dangerous.
My heart weeps for humanity

Life

to be given the gift of life "Oh" what a wonderful thing"

to have been created from man and woman
to experience life's many challenges, from birth to death, your first cry to your last sigh, to embrace all that life has to offer, without being afraid to live, and to take the many leaps of faith, which this world demands of us ,do not be afraid and hinder your growth

explore the many wonders of mother earth, enjoy all that she gives you
the good and the bad, seek always the good and do not despair when you are confronted with disappointments, for as long as you are on this earth you will experience some kind of calamities and adversities, do you not realize how blessed we are

take time to look at the rising sun each morning, shinning in the sky 
its magnificent colors of gold with pinks and blues draped across the horizon
listen to the rain drops beating on your window pane, each drop playing its own musical tune, before busting into a zillion water beads, forming an abstract, the envy of any canvas

feel the dew under your feet in the early morning as you walk on the green grass, look at the beauty all around you, smell the scent of the flowers as they awaken, listen as the little creatures stir, and the birds begin to sing

 "Oh" what a glories day to be alive"

in the evening watch the setting sun, and immerse yourself in its vibrant colors of fire gold and reds shimmering over the ocean
look to the night sky, see the twinkling stars glittering like diamonds in the sky, and the bright golden moon

 "Oh" what a wonderful night to be alive"

know matter were you live on this earth take time to enjoy your life, there is beauty in all things, " you just have to pick the gold from the glitter"
and as we continue life's journey, remember that life is simple, but we humans with our insatiable hunger to consume beyond are needs has made it so complex 

believe in the creator and the power of prayer, live life by loving, giving and  forgiving, moving forward with integrity and gratitude

"Oh" how wonderful it is to be alive"

Mankind

MANKIND

man has the technology to fly into outer space, explore mars
walk on the moon, make weapons of mass destruction
deploy drones to destroy his fellow men
pollute mother earth

but he is not conscious or moral enough to live in peace with his fellow men on mother earth

all humanity is one, but for the greed of men trying to control the world and all its natural resources and wealth
all that mother earth has to offer us humans, given freely by her 

and now man wonders why she is angry with us
and is now deploying her weapons of natural disasters
wake up! wake up! mankind before it is to late
climate change is real!

I Am Just a Speck Made From 118 Elements, Saith Man

I AM JUST A SPECK IN THE UNIVERSE; FROM DUST I CAME, TO DUST I SHALL RETURN.

I AM MADE UP OF ALL ELEMENTS FOUND ON MOTHER EARTH,FROM THE HIGHEST MOUNTAINS TO THE DEEPEST SEA, SPECKS OF ME CAN BE FOUND EVEN IN OUTER SPACE.

THE CREATOR MOLDED ME FROM ALL ELEMENTS KNOWN TO MAN AND UNKNOWN TO MAN.

I AM JUST A SPECK IN THE UNIVERSE, "I AM FLESH AND BLOOD"

I REGENERATE, I INCARNATE, I AM FOREVER, I AM THE CREATOR'S MASTERPIECE.

BIONICS CAN NOT REPLACE ME, "IT CAN ONLY HELP ME FOR A TIME"
FOR I AM A LIVING SOUL AND SPIRIT.

I AM INFINITE, UNIQUE, YET SO SIMPLE, THE CREATOR MADE ME WITH COMPASSION FOR HUMANITY, A GENTLE TOUCH, A SMILE, A HELPING HAND FOR MY FELLOW MAN.

A WARRIOR FOR MOTHER EARTH, THE ONLY PLANET THAT THIS BODY CAN SURVIVE ON NATURALLY.

I AM JUST A SPECK IN THE UNIVERSE.

Hard Work

HARD WORK


They say that hard work will not kill you, just tell that to our ancestors who worked hard all their lives.
 Believing in the great lie, fed to them by those in charge, that hard work will not kill you.

While they reaped all the benefits of their workers hard work, the rich and the powerful only got richer by their hard work of lies plundering and raping of poor countries resources and their people.

then they passed their cunning ways unto their children, that continue the practice of their ancestors, to keep the rich, richer and the poor, poorer and those in the middle fighting with each other.
For sure "Hard work will kill you" that is why the people at the top truly believe in a trickle down affects, knowing that it does not work, keeping the people fighting with each other.

people with a sense of reason do not mind hard work, if they are paid a fare
and living wage for their hard work

Most people want the same things for their families a place to call their own
were as the rich stands in their towers, looking over the people planning their next move wanting more.

how much is enough, they are never satisfied, forever wondering the world for 
their next high " No woman, no man children or love can provide"
Were as the poor man looks over his fields and his family and says, "How blessed I am"

Hard work to put food on the table, a roof over your family's head gives you a 
a sense of wellbeing, that no amount of plundering and looking for the next high can give you.

That is when hard work works

In ending, I have travel many countries in this world, and have come in contact with many people from all status of life, and if I am truly honest with myself as I try to be while travelling on life's journey, all the above  can apply to both rich and poor.

Life is simple we humans make it so difficult for each other just to survive

Live Life

LIVE LIFE BY NOT BEING AFRAID TO LOVE
LIVE LIFE BY NOT BEING AFRAID TO LIVE
LIVE LIFE BY NOT BEING AFRAID TO TRUST
LIVE LIFE BY REASONING
LIVE LIFE BY REMEMBERING THE GOOD THINGS, THAT HAVE HAPPEN IN YOUR LIFE.
LIVE LIFE BY NOT FOCUSING ON THE BAD THINGS, THAT HAVE HAPPEN IN YOUR LIFE.
LIVE LIFE BY SERVICE TO MANKIND
LIVE LIFE BY FOLLOWING YOUR DREAMS
LIVE LIFE BY GIVING
LIVE LIFE BY FORGIVING
LIVE LIFE BY HAVING NO FEAR, OF WHAT MANKIND CAN DO TO YOU
LIVE LIFE BY KNOWING, THAT A HIGHER POWER IS IN CONTROL

A Morning Prayer To the Sun

Good morning sun, as we enter into a new year, I thank God for you,

I thank you for blessing me with your rays of love light and energy, shining  ever so brightly each day.
no matter what austerities, adversities or circumstances that may come your way you are forever constant.

I want to be just like you, to shine ever so brightly each day, no matter austerities, adversities or circumstances that may come my way.
I thank you every morning, for all that you do, if you did not do the things that you do, life on this planet earth would cease to exist.

My father created the sun, the moon, the stars, and all the planets in the galaxies and the universities, he created them all.
then he created this planet earth and all things on it, the oceans, the rivers, the mountains, the trees all plant life on land and in the sea, all animal life on land and in the sea, all precious metals, gemstones, oils and gases.

My father created them all, then he created men and women and gave us this planet for our home, he made us the custodians of this planet earth and all things on it.
And even though at times we are so undeserving of this great honor, but God is a loving and forgiven father and I am so grateful for his love and grace.

I am a child of God and of the light, my father and I am one, I am that I am, in the name of the father the son and the holy spirit my lord and savior Jesus Christ, may you wash me with your blood make me anew cleanse me of all my sins and transgressions.
To you my father I give all things, you know my heart, my desires, my wants and my needs.

forever grateful for the gift of life, to earths custodians please take care of mother earth for there is no other!

Looking With My Eyes, But I Did Not See

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT I DID NOT SEE

TWO SHIPS PASSING IN THE TEMPEST SEA

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT I DID NOT SEE

TWO AIRPLANES PASSING IN THE SKY

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT I DID NOT SEE

TWO TRAINS PASSING ON THE TRAIN TRACKS

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT I DID NOT SEE

TWO CARS PASSING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT I DID NOT SEE

TWO STRANGERS PASSING ON A DARK AND LONELY STREET AT NIGHT

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT I DID NOT SEE

I WAS JUST LIVING LIFE, WALKING THROUGH WITH MY EYES WIDE OPEN,BUT I DID NOT SEE WHAT WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT I DID NOT SEE

THE ANGELS THAT WERE CONSTANTLY WACTHING OVER GUIDING AND PROTECTING ME

LOOKING WITH MY EYES, BUT NOW I SEE THE ANGELS THAT ARE WACTHING OVER ME

Everything Has Its Seasons

EVERYTHING THING HAS ITS SEASONS

THE EARTH HAS ITS SEASONS, AND FOLLOWS ITS NORMS.

THE PLANTS HAS ITS SEASONS, AND FOLLOWS ITS NORMS.

THE OCEANS HAS ITS SEASONS, AND FOLLOWS ITS NORMS.

THE ANIMALS HAVE THEIR SEASONS, AND FOLLOWS ITS NORMS.

ALL FOLLOWING THEIR CYCLE OF EARTH'S NATURAL CHANGING NORMS EXCEPTING THE REALITY OF CHANGE.

WERE AS WE HUMANS RUN UNBRIDLED, WREAKING HAVOC ON MOTHER EARTH CAUSING MANY SHIFTS IN HER NORMS.

WE HUMANS REFUSE TO EXCEPT LIFE'S NATURAL CHANGES, AND EMBRACE THE NORMS, THAT WE ARE LIKE THE SEASONS, SHINING BRIGHTLY KNOWING THAT WE ARE HERE, BUT FOR A SHORT WHILE.

LOOK INTO THE MIRROR AND FACE LIFE'S NATURAL CHANGES, BREAK THE CHAINS OF BONDAGE TO VANITY AND FEAR.

YOU WILL BE SURPRISE AT THE BEAUTIFUL ENLIGHTEN PERSON LOOKING BACK AT YOU.

EMBRACE LIFE'S NATURAL CHANGES, LET GO OF YOUR MENTAL SHACKLES AND LIVE
