The Cost Of Freedom

 The more I see, the more grateful I am that I'm NOT having children in this pathetic world. If unarmed black men aren't being shot down like dogs, it's some deranged fool who killed Asians in Atlanta and the surrounding area. How about the racist announcer who made N-word comments because a girls HS basketball team kneeled, then had the nerve to blame it on his diabetes? In light of these incidents, folks want to say "This is not who we are" Wrong. THIS is exactly who we are. As I said before, we're TOO FREE. Free to be stupid, hateful, etc.

Talking About Somebody

Since when did we have permission to speak on someone’s downfall? I’m asking for myself because everywhere I turn, it’s always something published about someone’s fall from grace. Granted, public figures are held to a higher standard, but they’re human like we are. Nobody can talk about anyone. We all are living off God’s grace & mercy. 

Today’s Message: Good Deeds=Love Or Ego?

 We can do all the good we want, but without love, we’re doing good just to feed our ego. No wonder many people want credit for the good they do, because they’re feeding their ego instead of doing good out of their heart.

Unpopularity of speaking the truth

Fighting for what is right will never be popular with some crowds, but that doesn’t mean you cower from the responsibility of stating the truth. 

Question Of The Day

Disclaimer: I’ll answer this question in depth in a later post, but for now y’all can think on this question:

Why can’t God have our best years instead of our leftovers?

Men Coaching Women How To Keep A Man

 

Social media seems to be a magnet for relationship gurus. It doesn't matter if you're on FB, Twitter, Instagram or YouTube, you're guaranteed to find a few men schooling women on how to get & keep a man, and the ladies eat it up. Let's not dismiss what men have to say regarding how to get & keep a man because there are gems. What better way to learn how to attract a man than from a MAN? Granted, every man is different in what he's looking for, but generally...men aren't complicated. As long as she's loyal, driven & independent, most men are checking for that. Flipping the script: There's money in men schooling women how to get & keep a man. Why do you think there's so many relationship gurus out there? Because a lot of them have figured out how to monetize women's desire for a relationship. I don't know how true it is, but you don't see women schooling other women on how to get & keep a man like you do the reverse. 

Good Men vs. Bad Boys

My question is why good men are pressed over women choosing bad dudes? If she wants a street guy, that's her choice. Besides, most street dudes have a short life expectancy due to enemies coming for them. If she enjoys the dangers that come with dating a street guy, that's her decision & good men shouldn't be pressed. I think it's entitlement: Good men feel entitled to good women without working for them. It makes sense because a good woman should want a good man, but unfortunately, it doesn't always work that way. A man may be good, he's not good for her & that's ok. Everyone has preferences in a mate, and what if that good man doesn't meet her criteria? If he knows his worth, he'll keep it moving because he believes there's someone out there for him that'll appreciate who he is & what he has to offer.
