L.A. Gang Wars

Every city has struggled to some degree with gang warfare, where a percentage of the city's murders were gang-related, but Los Angeles...SMH. I was watching some documentaries on L.A. gang warfare and to hear about gang murders topping 600 & 700 every year in the 80's is crazy. '90-'93, L.A. had murder counts of 983, 1,025, 1,092, and 1,077 murders respectively, and of those numbers, about 600 of those were gang related. That mess was crazy. I read that L.A. recorded 1,024 murders in '80. I would've hated to live in South Central L.A. back in the 80's and early 90's, MANNNNNN....

Some ministers are going to be in their feelings over this tweet; ask me if I care:

Keeping Secrets


Warryn may be toast with no jelly if Erica finds out he owes 7 figures because Tina wouldn't do another Mary Mary album. First off, Warryn had no business spending the advance money because Tina told him a few times that she's not ready to do a Mary Mary album. Erica and Tina decided to embark on solo careers so Mary Mary is on hiatus for the time being. Sony gives Warryn an advance with the expectation of another Mary Mary album, and we saw how that went. Because Warryn spent the advance money, Warryn is torn between going into business with Mitchell Solarek (ex-Mary Mary manager) and his friend who makes money (il)legally. If my "friend" had a proposition for me involving illegal or legal money, I'd take the LEGAL money all the way because I don't want the law hot on me. Or I may refuse altogether because legal and illegal boundaries could intersect and I don't want any legal issues. Warryn might as well tell his wife the truth because she's going to find out anyway.
Why do some husbands think they can keep major secrets from their wives? Don't they know that women KNOW what's going on, even if their husbands may never tell them? Women have something called intuition, or discernment that always lets them know something's not right. When it comes to matters affecting the family, husbands should let their family know what's up because his secrecy could affect the entire family negatively. Being the head, maybe men keep some things from their spouses because they feel they can handle the matter, which is true if the situation is small. Major issues that impact the family should be disclosed immediately because the longer you keep something from your loved ones, the greater the disappointment because Erica is going to feel like she was lied to, and no spouse should feel that way.

Strawberry Letter: Sexing The Pastor

Sexing The Pastor

It takes a special kind of foul for a woman to sleep with her pastor. He's supposed to be a Godly man tasked with leading his congregation to Christ, and he breaks up a happy home. I think there was a story a couple years ago where a pastor was murdered for sleeping with a married woman, so I knew this letter was familiar. Pastors are flawed, yes; but shouldn't a pastor lead by example in Godly conduct? If she tells “on the pastor", she needs to tell on herself because it takes two. He knew what was going on, and so did she and while they’re both human, he’s answered a higher calling and should know that as a pastor, he shouldn’t be coveting another man’s wife, let alone sleeping with her to the point of pregnancy. I wonder how God looks down on pastors who do this. Her husband is going to be devastated WHENEVER he finds out. If she loved her husband, she wouldn't act like this. Your pastor wants you to tell him everything, I wonder if he wants to share this information with his congregation? She doesn't mention if he's married, are they going to let his wife know the deal? She has a mess on her hands that her type of Praise & Worship she's been participating in is not going to solve. The first thing to do is distance herself from this pastor, but I don't think she will because she's in love with his "ministry."

Everyone Doesn't Deserve Your Best


If people lived by this tweet, life would be much better. Relationships would be lasting and no one would be bitter over bad relationships. Because some people are too trusting, they give their best to this & that person, not having done their homework on said person. Some people are good pretenders, meaning they'll portray themselves as adorable, so they can get your best. Once the mask wears off, they're true colors show and you're mad at the world because you found out you've given your best to the wrong people. Not everyone is deserving of your best, so choose wisely who you give to. Matthew 7:6 cautions against giving pearls to swine, meaning not everyone will appreciate the goodness you give them. Why then do people set themselves up for disappointment by giving their best to everyone? I think it's because some people assume that everyone is going to appreciate a person's best, which is usually true, but not always. The inspiration for this blog message comes from reading several Facebook comments from singles who've written off relationships because they've been hurt repeatedly. Going further, Matthew 7:6 is a GREAT reference for those looking for a romantic relationship because the verse teaches them to use discernment before they agree to yoke with this person. I believe if people used Matthew 7:6 as a guide before giving their best, we would see less hurting people.
