Fear
I'm amazed at the fear N people right now. The lack of inspiration; the reservedness; the conditioned limitations that keeps the public N a state of inaction and apathy. The willingness 4 people 2 B someone other than themselves. It sickens me. What the f*** is going on??? The economy has been a little rough on a number of people as of late but has any of the people suffering from this supposed recession considered the fact that not everybody is broke right now; that some folks R getting REAL rich right now... Likely the muthafluffa U're working 4. Duh. Y buy N2 the bull shit if U don't have 2? Your job let U go? Then why R'nt U going N2 business 4 yourself. What was it that U wanted 2 do as a child that U've since been steered away from? What was it that was so lofty that U decided that U couldn't do 4 one reason or another? Y would U B more willing 2 invest in putting time N2 someone else's dream and not your own??? This is a time 4 the creative; 4 the manufacturers, 4 those that make instead of those that just consume. The consumer; the 9-5 wage slave is becoming a financially and socially frustrated endangered species waiting 4 someone else 2 ration out 2 them the things that they already had in whole within themselves. Shouts out 2 the John Clayborns, K-Fleyes, P3s, Doublestitches, Mike Sims, Elementals, D'Aminis, etc that jump out on their own; on their faith and make a living out of their God given talents and abilities. We may not B rich yet but we're happy. Shouts out 2 anyone who exercises that "faith" and really creates a positive reality, despite adversity, 4 themselves. Whether it B N real estate, travel, jewelry, technology, clothes, etc... it's something else 4 U 2 decide that U're REALLY tired of being subject 2 the will of someone else 4 your living. If U really believe in the God that U say U believe N, then what's holding U back? Big Love 2 any of U who have let go of that negative, unconducive, incompatable muthafluffa in your life, despite the time, effort, and settled comfort U had in that individual 4 the "uncertainty" of the Universe 2 provide U with what U really deserve in your growth as a person/spirit - whether it B a "mate," a relative, or a friend who is taking far moor from your life than they're putting N. These things take courage. These things take faith. These things often take a sense of reckless abandon and powerful resolve 2 make happen but 2 me, what is the alternative: Living N someone else's reality??? Becoming and staying subject 2 someone else's will??? Choosing familiar unhappiness over unknown possibility??? HELL NAW! We R as great or small as we choose 2 B. No matter your nationality, gender, age, or ability there R vast examples of people not very different than ourselves that have done things that the rest of the world R amazed by. The only difference was the courage and wherewithal 2 make it happen. In the perspective of "dancefloor politics" I watch dudes stand around the bar in small groups swearing they're cool but really just scared of asking a sista 2 dance; scared she might say no; scared to B the first one on the floor; scared of just moving 2 the music like they wanna move. This commercial Rap and R& B dun made ya'll some pu**ies! It's conditioned an anciently rhythmic people 2 deny their own spirit if the "song" doesn't come with a dumb-ass dance 4 them 2 follow along 2. Our grandparents were Jitterbugging, Lindyhopping, doing acrobatic moves on the floor that people 2 this day don't dare 2 attempt. The Caucausian-run commercial industry only recently, 20 YEARS LATER, caught up with breakdancing so NOW it becomes things like "America's Best Dance Crew." I've been partying 4 YEARS dancing with no set moves or steps and I heard that "Housing," the same sh** me and thousands of others have been getting at each other with all this time is NOW a legitimate "style." Please. And U lames R standing around on the wall waiting 4 some damn "Slide" 2 come on 2 move 2. Pu**ies! I guess this is a rant. Thank U 4 indulging me. But I'm tired of the bullsh** and need 2 express that. The emperor clearly has no clothes and I'm surrounded by suckas scared 2 tell that naked muthafluffa 2 put a damn towel on! The world ain't right in a large respect and there R 2 many heads just moving with it even when it moves against them. I've heard from a few that the Universe is simply beginning 2 weed out the weak and un4tunately the mass majority is weak. Some people I love R going 2 have 2 go but it doesn't have 2 B that way... does it? How easy is it 2 choose 2 do something different with our lives? Begin that new career, start that new business; that new relationship, stop accepting less than what we deserve, stop consuming more than we need, change our diets, our hair, our minds. How hard is it 4 us 2 B ourselves? I know a lot of sick people; ill with disease or perpetual discomfort and/or imbalance who WON'T do what they need 2 do 2 get well and back in balance. U're a diabetic? Stop drinking "diet" pop. Eat a lot more natural foods, a lot less processed sh** and meat and drink plenty of alkalized water. But a chicken and rib eating muthafluffa would rather die than have 2 say "I'm a vegetarian." Cancer eating away at your insides? Fast. Starve the tumor and RESEARCH 4 yourself the proper herbs and acids that will go N and put your body back N balance without a bunch of drugs and radiation. AND STOP FUC*IN' SMOKING, dumbass! Asthmatic? Stop consuming dairy products and anything white (sugar, rice, flour, etc...). There's way 2 many alternatives available 2 sit around and B wheezing or sucking on some damn inhaler and taking steroids everyday. Your children a little off, a little hyperactive? Stop feeding that little bad muthafluffa processed foods, junk, and white sugar products first thing in the gaddamn morning! Move the little bastards away from the TV and N2 a book (at least a comic book) and C if that thang don't change. Stop her little fast ass from watching videos all damn day and listening 2 Clear Channel radio programming if U wanna raise a lady. But folks choose death over denying themselves a few things they've become accustomed 2 even when those things R killing them. They'd rather listen 2 some damn doctor who is helping their slow demise draw out in the interest of the prescription business than read a fuc*in' book about their condition. Notice that a lot of these solutions begin with "stop." Not hard. If I've learned anything in my life it's simplicity is golden; simplicity is key. Every other animal in the world eats, sleeps, mates, and socializes according 2 THEIR PLACE in the animal kingdom. Simple. The seasons change as nature has programmed them 2 do. Simple. The planets rotate and revolve around THEIR PLACE in the Universe effortlessly. Simple. Nobody tells the lion how 2 B a lion. The lion just is and does what lions do. Simple. All complications N my life have had simple solutions. It was me that made those things complicated even if it was me allowing other people 2 complicate that situation. It was me. I was the problem AND the solution and it was really that simple. I LOVE simplicity. Don't always adhere 2 it but I'm still growing. ...and I'm just about there I dance, perform, and move through this world the way I do cause I ain't scared of sh**! I say the things I say and the way that I say them because I know someone else is afraid 2 and those things needed 2 B said. I ain't got no "game" as it is but women dig me and it usually starts at "Hi." I can't sit around and wait 4 something 2 happen. I've watched enough moments, opportunities, experiences pass me by like that. I will put myself N2 the path of those things now cause I AIN'T SCARED and I've learned it is SO easy 2 do. Once the fear is gone NOTHING is 2 big, 2 hard, or 2 impossible. What R U afraid of? I've heard it said that courage is not necessarily bravery in the face of opposition but it is more of the ability to move forward; 2 act despite one's initial fear. I dig that. Despite being scared, U make sh** happen! That's the lesson people. Do it! Thousands of people may attempt 2 deter U from that growth but the only one that can stop U is U. Do it. Fu** "them"!!! Do it! Let go of that fear and reservation, grab your (figurative or literal) balls and make this world a better place 4 U and those around U. Dance that stoopid dance that only makes sense 2 U. Speak 2 that attractive guy or gal. Start that business (please study business first. Just pick up a damn book) and prepare 2 cuss out your boss that U've been hating 4 so long. Write that book, that paper, that song that has been sitting in your head 4 years. It ain't gotta get published but what if it does? A friend told me recently that worry is being concerned with some sh** that hasn't even happened yet. Damn. That's hot. "They" may come 2 stop U, ridicule U, destroy U, steal from U what U do BUT "THEY MAY NOT. Y give them that power B4 U even enact your greatness upon this world? "They" may love and applaud U 4 it. Make that move that U KNOW U wanna make and STOP BEING SCARED. Go forward and build. The world is waiting and the Universe says it's okay. Thanks ya'll Love U. K.
