Love never hates Dreams.

People sacrifice their dreams for many reasons. It could be because of loved ones you decide to take care of like your children, your ill mother, or father, etc. When you see someone with a real passion to create, its inspiring to a point where you want to create or find a way to help them out. In most cases, people should never give up on their dreams because it may lead the dreamer to resent who or whatever the reason was for their "dream deferred." I watched a co worker spontaneously sing a song(that she wrote) in the breakroom at work with boldness that honestly took me by surprise. She has a decent voice that could be stronger with singing lessons. The song was very catchy and radio friendly; i kept humming it after she sung it to me. She was singing to me like i was a record executive. lol. But let me get to my point, she will never make her dream a reality! I say that because as I tried to contact a music producer associate, she began to explain to me her husbands "funny" opinion about black men. He's the kind of insecure man that makes me irritated when i hear about their ways. She told me he has a stereotypical opinion about all black men sagging their jeans...blah blah blah. Basically he's a racist that thinks all balck men are thugs that wanna have sex with his white wife. The man thats suppose to love her doesn't want his wife to pursue her dream because he has nightmares of a black man taking advantage of her. NEWSFLASH: she's gonna do what she wants to do weather you like it or not!! Now i believe she's just as guilty for letting anyone including her husband destroy what makes her truly happy. I also considered that she might be using him as an excuse to not pursue a singing career because of her own insecurites. But either way a dream should never stay alseep unless the circumstances are honorable like i mentioned in the opening of this blog. Now let me say I do hope she at least pursue her music either in the form of writing or producing if not singing. All men have an ego to a certain extent but it should never hurt anyone in the process, especially to the people you love. For example, you have to have a certain level of an ego to bring about change for yourself and the world. Her husband's ego is choking the life out of her passion; love sets people free.

Unavailable or Private calls are for losers!!!

Why is it that everyday i get a call from a mysterious number that i cant even see?!?! all i have to do is hit the ignore or silent button but its getting a lil annoying becasue sometimes its back to back calls!!! i dont know if its telemarketers, some business, or a person i may know but either way its what a coward does. who sits around callin poeple number everyday but dont want the person to know who you are?? dont be embarassed, just let it be known that its you or your company callin my phone once again to tell me about something thats not important! they know its not improtant to me because they hide their identity in hopes that i'll answer my phone. i do not answer numbers i dont know most of the time, so a number i cant even see will never be answered unless im really bored and feel like screaming in my phone like a lunatic to give myslef a good laugh! stop the madness!!!!!

We Overcame but now we have to Overcome ourselves

Happy Black History Month!!! Its come that time where we recognize and appreciate our rich history as black people. Of course we can celebrate all year round but this is the designated time of month. So the late great Martin Luthur King Jr. fought and died for the rights we(black people) enjoy everyday of our lives. He represented love and compassion for all races, especially the unfortunate ones that no one cares about in society. We have came so far in the United States of America since we elected President Barack Obama; even though we're still not united as we should be as MLK envisioned. It still bothers me that blacks kill blacks but its a slap in the face of history when people are shot and killed at MLK parades over senseless viloence. We're our worst enemy at times and the only time we come togather is when we feel threatened as a whole. For example, black man gets shot by police, we get angry through protest and dialogue. But for some reason MLK's message is not getting through to the ghetto mentality of black youth. Gang members kill in the name of their affilation but never desire to live for something worth dying for like love of peace and progression. I believe we can change society and the media's way they view us by cleaning out the dirt and flith from our enviorments and past. People talk about new movements in pop culture all the time, there has to be a movement that will revive black culture because we're more than gang members and young baby mothers...we're KINGS AND QUEENS. We overcame but now its time to overcome ourselves.
