WINTER MANNERS.

Morning Dears...


So upon making my trek to work.....late...in the midst of Potato sized snow flakes and 7-11 Slurpee feeling stuff under my Uggs >:-(...I see THIS..

A bus was SMOKING......hmmmm I say to myself as i continue to walk in that direction(New Yorker persistence)...I make my way closer and closer,and then of course realize that makes NO sense!So, I walk around the bus...lol If  it had blown up ,I'm sure the steering wheel could have swiped me..lol.But anyhow...I couldn't see where the fire was from or it was just a mechanical issue....SO "politely" but  more like "Get the Hec outta my way"...II hear a voice as I stand at the curb waiting to cross, "'SCUUUUSEE ME"....just like that..SO i pulled my nicely draped H&M scarf back to see ,Shuwacatea (Shoo-WOK- Ah-tee AH)...wanting to get pass.I let her pass, only to stand in the street because there was no room..its a red light!.So now I'm wondering WHY she felt the need to go around me with her big umbrella only to wait in the street for the light to turn green.(mind you she got splashed twice by passing cars..smh)...Some one says "Wow look at that...." she says "Jea I KNOW..that's why I was like...SCUSE me,lemme dead get away from that fire.."...lol(Yes she said it like that).SO you rushed around me ,thinking 5 extra inches would save your life ,only to wait like the rest of us?COMEONSON...lol.
I wont lie....the wait for the light to change ,was EXTRA long now that I could see a large piece of "something' under that bus ,lit like a campfire....lol I guess i cant blame her for rushing pass me...mmmkay YES I can..




Manners
Its amazing how the words we were taught so say out of respect can sound like cuss words depending on what tone they are said.
"Scuse me ".....the "E" and the"X" are silent..or therefore DO NOT exist...practice Your hood vernacular...:-)



BTW----->
CHECK OUT THE UGGS....LOL this winter has them looking beat!...BUT...my feet are DRY!MUCH improvement compared to ppls complaints of having wet soggy feet...:-(
Good day Folks..
Travel Safe!

Hunch Back Hymn

I painted a picture of you with the world in mind

I carefully caressed each feature ,careless of time.

Careful to create a face like mine.

I took some from THEN and some for to come

To create the one you see in the mirror,with a look so glum

Now you sing a song which i call A HUNCHBACK HYMN

A song sung straight from the ground ,outward in.

Eyes looking down you walk the earth so small,eyes cluttered with everything below,you loose sight of it ALL.

How did it become so easy to take their word over mine?

You measure the beauty of life from eyes past blind

Unable to see whats ahead you sing a song familiar to the heart

God why me?Why me?Pull me apart

Take this away because what you say in your word.NO ONE sees

I cant look up it hurts too much to see whats ahead ,if its anything like what's below,I'd rather be dead

My walk is limpy because of the stones they have cast...so what you blocked everyone,their eyes are worst that the pain of the past

Who's looking,who's to see about me?

I must cover what you've created so that they can see.

Even if I thought what you made was great I dress and talk so THEY like me..

My make up covers shame and hypocrisy

I covers hatred ,envy and jealousy

Mac has a new shade and even I cant see ME.

I like it that way,makes me feel like the world is below me

Secret song I sing,secret verses I sing.

Outward i stand tall,but without the "magic" I'd fall.

unbalanced does this hump called life make me.

Hunch Back Hymn I sing,there's alot more like me

How do you se purpose looking down on the ground

never making "I" contact afraid whats around

Arise and stand up,take the posture you thought impossible

Let God empower you.

Understand that the voices of them are not the voices of Him.

Only ONE knows the full extent and awesomeness of which you were created

SO by their scorn and mockery,comparison and fault like voices

you do NOT obey.

Rid yourself of the makeup made to hide ME.

Tear the cloaks made to cover ME.

Walk upright side my side with me.

I understand the plans for Thee.

Real Life

(Fr. Alfred D'Souza)
For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life.
But there was always some obstacle in the way.
Something to be got through first, some unfinished business,
time still to be served, a debt to be paid.
Then life would begin.
At last it dawned on me that these obstacles WERE my life.

Coming of Age

(Anais Nin)
We do not grow absolutely, chronologically.
We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly.
We grow partially. We are relative.
We are mature in one realm, childish in another.
The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward,
or fix us in the present.We are made up of layers, cells, constellations....

VERY INTERESTING

Because my Dreams have more money than me

Something that's so effective and helpful for me...is writing things down.
I try and write my goals.I pray over them and really try to make strides towards them.
9 times out of 10,when I have looked back they have been done.
365 days doesn't seem merely enough time to complete ANYTHING...especially since time seems to be on crack(moving way too fast).:-)
Days seem shorter and shorter.
God knows I have dreams and visions yet to come alive.
One thing I have learn to ask is if my dreams and visions are self seeking...
I mean you can't help but want to do things for yourself,but are ALL of them self seeking and have not one thing that can ultimately change a life besides your own?
I can sit on the beaches of Barbados forever,but my life is far more than a stationary position.
I must do what I was put here to do,besides it hasn't been done til' I do it.

Habakkuk 2:2-3
And then God answered: "Write this.
   Write what you see.
Write it out in big block letters
   so that it can be read on the run.
This vision-message is a witness
   pointing to what's coming.
It aches for the coming—it can hardly wait!
   And it doesn't lie.
If it seems slow in coming, wait.
   It's on its way. It will come right on time."


THINK ABOUT IT.....BUT DON'T SIT TOO LONG....

HOW IS THE CREATION TO KNOW IT'S PURPOSE UNLESS IT ASKS THE CREATOR?

READY FOR LOVE

Here's some morning madness..........I LOVE this song...

powerful lyrics...

 

 

 

I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I'd quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity

I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I've been thinking
Maybe you're not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity
They say watch what you ask for
Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I'll say the same thing

I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won't complain
I just need you to acknowledge I am here

If you give me half a chance
I'll prove this to you
I will be patient, kind, faithful and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respects the spirit world
And thinks with his heart

I am ready for love
If you'll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can

I am ready for love
Here with an offering of
My voice
My Eyes
My soul
My mind

Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love

I am ready
