Why we can't move forward



 Lately, there has been havoc all over my little city. Well, it's always been crimes going on, yeah, but recently, crazy shit has been going down. Like, about two weeks ago, a girl was sexually assaulted on our campus. That was a little to close for comfort for me. Maybe LAST week there was a girl that was raped and beaten in a washroom at Washington University. It's like..WTF is wrong with people?? People are being robbed everyday, killed, and all KINDS of mess. The other day my friend Evan told me she seen a man laying on the sidewalk DEAD! It was freaking broad daylight and theres a man laying on the sidewalk of a busy street with a bullet in his chest. Why the HELL can't we all just get along?

   Well, as much as we want our humanity to be based on peace and love and happiness and shit, it's really based on money and power. Money gets you power... Power gets you money. I mean, simple concept right? Yeah. But with everything going on in the past 2 years, (recession) crime has been rising. People are trying to get extra money the easy way and make a living off of robbing people who are trying to do something to make their OWN damn way. I don't understand it because the more we ROB and KILL our people, the further we push our whole kind down the hole. I think that if you're gunna rob somebody you shouldn't hurt them or rape them at least, damn. I mean, if you hurt the they're probably gunna end up in someone's hospital for 2-3 weeks trying to recover, missing out on days they could have worked and made money. You already robbed them, why stunt their oppurtunity to better themselves. Ugh, I can't effing stand people.

     I tell my mom that I can't stand humans all the time lol. Then she says "Well, what are you?" and I always reply with... "I'm a ninja", lol.. It's like, we keep searching for an EASY way but in reality, there IS no easy way out. You almost always have to go through something to acheive something,, it's the way of life. If we as a united race got together and tried to HELP each other instead of fighting and killing all of the time, maybe we could get some shit done and advance ourselves. This is NOT to say that some people don't try to do this already, because a lot of us do. We try to be nice and helpful and do what we can to help our fellow bothers and sisters but too many times a person will have had bad experiences with people who take advantage of the kindness we try to deliver. You can't win for losing anymore. Our people have developed really fucked up mentalities that won't let them see past themselves.

   I REALLY wish we could wake up man...We cannot move forward if half of the population is moving backwards.  If we can't save ourselves, who will?

Carpe Diem

So, I’m having a moment lol. It’s just that for the past 3 months I’ve been THROUGH it. And although I’ve been through it PLENTY of times before, this time took the cake. I won’t get specific and reveal details but I will let you know that it was/is not pretty. Several things have been occurring all at the same time and it breaks me down piece by piece every day. Lately though, I’ve been learning to take it all in and blow it back out. Looking at it and not worrying about things takes a GREAT burden off of my MIND. I’ve also learned to live as if I won’t see tomorrow. Carpe Diem is my favorite phrase. "Seize the Day".  We all know that tomorrow is never promised so don’t spend what could be your last day worrying and dwelling on problems… Or PEOPLE for that matter.

…Yeah, I said people. People can determine your whole mood. One person can play on your mind for as long as they like as long as you allow their words or actions to faze you. Some people call these folks HATERS, but I don’t. Some call them confused fans, but I don’t. I like to refer to these people as admirers. NO ONE dwells on a person *that does nothing to them* for so long just because they don’t like them. They’re not “hating” on your style, personality, life, whatever may be the case, they LIKE it. But, because they don’t have nor can attain some of your attributes, such as life or personality, they will down talk what you have to try to make you feel bad about it. Now, this is not really happening to me exactly at the moment, nor would I care if it did, but I thought I’d speak on it. Actually, I wouldn’t even think about it because I KNOW that I have bigger things to worry about. Hell, I’m 29 years old out in these streets lol.


But yeah, anyways…I just want my beautiful people to not let anything get in their way of doing anything and let nothing hold you back from achieving your full potential. Rocks may be thrown but you have to learn to dodge and ignore them. Averting attention to the negative lets the positive slip away. So God speed you!

Seize the day, or time regretting the time you lost... -Avenged Sevenfold said that in a song once. :)
