What’s The Deal

I have to get this off my chest and if I offend some people I apologize in advance. I have been trying to figure out where men have gone wrong. I was raised and taught that a “man” provides for  himself if he is physically able. He makes sure he has a roof over his head. He ensures that his family will eat. I could keep going on for hours about what a “man” should be doing and what not. Now my problem isn’t with the men who handle their business like a man. My problem is with these “boys” who call themselves men but have no clue as to what a man really is.

This new breed of so-called men that has emerged seem to think that the world owes them something. They lack respect in general. They expect for someone to take care of them while they just sit back and do nothing then complain about their life. Mind you most times they don’t put forth the effort required to make even a slight change in their circumstances. Many of them have to have their hand held to complete simple tasks. I can’t really blame them because it just represents what they were and weren’t taught at home. This isn’t race specific or aimed at a particular area. It happens everyday all around the world.

I wonder what will it take for this new breed to wake up and realize that nobody is gonna take care of them forever. People get tired, especially women, of being used repeatedly. Eventually that door will slam shut and they will be forced to man up!!!!

After two minors from Gainesville High School in Gainesville, Fla., posted a nearly 14-minute-long racist rant on YouTube, the girls are “no longer students at the school,” WCJB-TV reports. (Scroll for video.) Last week, eight police officers were brought to the campus in light of death threats the girls were receiving in response to their videos. The videos included comments like, “You can understand what we are saying, our accents, we use actual words. Black people do not.” Gainesville High School …

Thoughts of the wind

Blowing briskly through your hair

Sounds of the ocean

Filling our ears

Moonlight shining

Down from above

A clear

Starry filled night sky

A perfect place

For you and I

Dreams

Yet fulfilled

Only in our minds

Thus far

Hands clasped

Tightly like a glove

Pulsating

Emitting love

In this moment

Space

And time

Nothing

No one else matters

Outside of

You and I

My Nominations

I greatly appreciate each and every person who takes time to visit my “world” here on wordpress. Although I am relatively new I feel right at home. As for the awards, I never thought I would receive any and that wasn’t my intention. With that being said, I would like to nominate some of my favorite blogs for the

I’m not sure if there’s a number requirement but if there is I may need to add to my list.

Let Me Be

Here I am

Haunted by my past

Every time I close my eyes

Distant images flash

Like a movie they play

Over and over again

I buried that person

When will it end

Sleepless nights

Confused days

Why won’t that person

Just stay away

I’ve grown from that age

All the youthful banter

But now it seems

It’s my sanity

It’s after

Stress

Despair

Depression

Makes it stonger

I fight

Hard daily

Often misunderstood

My secrets

Dark and eerie

I wish I never knew

Go away

Go away

Let me be

The peaceful

Loving person

I have grown

To be

Balance vs. Power vs. Time vs. Money

This morning I was reading a blog entry that peaked my interest (see the reblog below). It talked about our mentality and the current state of the world. Immediately, the movie Equilibrium came to mind starring Christian Bale and Taye Diggs. Hopefully, you have seen it. But if not, its basically a futuristic movie about saving an emotionless world. In a perfect society where emotion was prohibited, everyone was forced to take a pill to keep themselves from feeling anything…especially love. …
