When the student becomes the teacher...

   

The Art of politics.

A young Master learns from a True Master of the Art of War

The passing of the torch

*evil grin*

I haven't had much reason to blog for quite a while.

Maybe because I found it easier to just spew short post on other social sites that made Me lazy.

Until I found Myself shortening My post at times that what I felt like saying was just not complete in 200 words or less..

lol

But as I watched the character of this country flip through so many flavors of love and hate as of late?

I could not wait for the right words to formulate in My mind enough to fold it's self into a challenge.

How do I express the mess we have gotten ourselves into?

As a Nation of people

divided

And never been defeated.

But it's no secret that mass amounts of American people have been picking sides and drawing lines in the burning sands of progress and depression.

While guessing

Who is messing

With our lives

And livelyhoods.

And the goods are less than the bads.

And the sadness and frustrations have forced forecast of fear of failure.

If someone does not 

TAKE BACK

some image of hope that we lack the knack to attack

Because the facts have become fiction

Depending on what side you see from.

But I digress...

Because I would guess that just as the predictions professed.

We are faced with a mess

Of problems and no formula to solve them.

That anyone can agree upon.

And gone are the simple days

When one vote was all it took

Buy hook or crook

To change the ways

For better days

And speaking of dazes?

These are our our last days

Our last ways

To praise

What used to be.

2012

Is not a end

It's a new beginning

But nobody is winning

Because all bet are off

Because we are now on the boarder

Of a new world order

And let's not pretend that it was expected that the world would end

That depends on who you ask

The task of a fix fast

Has past

And at last

We are free

To be a whole new we

The people

United

Will never be defeated

And repeat it

Until we see it

*evil stare*

But the world is shifting faster than any location or nation can guess the rotation of power.

This very hour

Has put a sour note

In the very Constitution they wrote

And hope

Is the new dope

On a bigger scope

The slope is unpredictable

There is no form to this new formula.

The formality is you and Me

And Unity is a fantasy

And we have too much future to repeat our history

Not from memory

And that brings Me back to the student

The Master

And the Teacher

When the lessons to be learned have not been invented as of yet?

You can bet

That the best teacher

Is the creature who has not become a Master yet

But has honored the challenge of becoming a Master student

Of a New Order of a World

That has not changed as of yet.

But it's 2012

The end is near

And aint no future in our front'in

Respect

I still remember...911

I will admit that after 11 years I'm still kinda salty about the whole 911 issue.

It was not just the loss of so much of My possessions that bother Me still, but more about the memory of the attitudes of so many people I knew and worked with and how I was treated right afterwards.

And maybe that is another reason why I don't go home as much as I used to too?

Because what I remembered the most about the whole 911 event was the attitude of everyone. (family included)

And how Americans turned on Americans like Myself.

So every time I see bigotry and racism I think of how Americans acted right afterwards towards each other. 

I think about how it felt to be homeless and being told there is nothing home for you to come back too.

I think about being one of the few people trusted enough to set up the set for the Presidents first speech in Atlanta and how the other Union guys acted while we was working that event. 

I think about how angry Americans was.

I think about how READY FOR WAR everyone was.

And I think about the countless amounts of people who died because American was so anxious for a war that so many later blamed so many others OTHER than themselves.

And as I now sit in at least a stable recovery that has taken almost 11 years to get to thus far...

I'm still ashamed of the Americans I remember back during and after 911.  And how they treated each other including Myself.

And I'm most silent in thought still on this day.

Because I remember.

What would Harriet Tubman say today?

Harriet Tubman

She never made excuses for who and what she was...

"I grew up like a neglected weed -- ignorant of liberty, having no experience of it."

She knew the task was difficult...

"I had crossed the line. I was free; but there was no one to welcome me to the land of freedom. I was a stranger in a strange land."

But I wonder what she would say about her people today?

“I freed a thousand slaves I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves.”

I wonder what she would have said about MLK Jr's Dream?

“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.”

She knew a new image of freedom found that became her reason to free others...

“I looked at my hands, to see if I was the same person now that I was free. There was such a glory over everything; the sun came like gold through the trees, and over de fields, and I felt like I was in heaven.”

If knowledge was a snake it would have bit more of us...

“Never wound a snake; kill it.”

I wonder how she would compare our President today to Presidents of her day...

“Forever Free: Abraham Lincoln's Journey to Emancipation.”

As we remember our American history.

What will our future say about how we left them a history of how we are today?

I'm sure her simple prayer was more than enough for her in her day as she would say...

"Lord, I'm going to hold steady on to You and You've got to see me through."

In GOD she trusted.

I wonder how she would see "us" as her people today as we have evolved from her day when it was most important to free as many slaves as she could risk her life for?

It's 2010.

We have all evolved into a new image that many in our past would be proud of if we could only believe that we are living today in a new image of life that is more fair to everyone.

Even if nobody gets reparations for the pain of our past treatment.

But what will so many people who have grown to feel they have been historically unfair for so long in our past that we can not feel our new found freedom as a people together with everyone else who can see the difference too?

How free are you feeling today?

United we stand...

Are you still waiting to be aloud to stand on your own today like it's a new day?

What's stopping you?

respect

Breaking the rules of the game to play fairly?

I been doing a lot of thinking about what I have learned about these sexual lifestyles and the different titles and types of sexual natures known as what you are as you do what it is you do.

(WIITWDish)

What we __DO__ know is that everything within the realm of BDSM as we know it, seems to be not only helpful but respectful for consenting adults to adapt within their relationship dynamics no matter what spiritual faith base or cultural balance you support.

So what I have figured out so far is that by the time we become sexual adult minded people, we are capable of finding and keeping fruitful and productive relationships and honor others as well.

But THAT has been a very new awakening in just the past 15 or 20 years or so. And many of us today have lost the FULL memory of how it really used to be. I mean before we were old enough to remember before computers or cell phones or Tv and radio. And I'm hoping that I am reaching a few of you who may still have been too young to really remember when the REASON why parents made us go play outside is because there was VERY LITTLE to do other than chores in the daytime of our past youth. And the truth about growth of our nation and reality as what we see from Sea to Shining Sea...lol

There are JUST AS MANY young new and not so new adults in these lifestyle communities as their are elder types who have worked very hard to carry on the memory of the way things really used to be in our history. Because there is a legacy of protocols and rituals that several cultures also have within their own genetic mysteries. From Leather and Old Guard to Blue Blooded slavery and servitude to shameful memories of genocide and supremacy.

We all can see a reflection of something that we all can desire to live and admire within our desired relationship dynamics, in theory.

But there is a constant scream of "but there is nobody who I can relate that lives in the same state as me...lol"

And that is a ONLINE reality.

So it's a wild kind of vision to envision the sight of everything that is right with the next generations of new adults as they try to mold THEIR evolution more than many of us that have a lifetime history of how these lifestyles used to be, only now this is more of their reality and we are just holding up the walls or trying not to have no space to play well with others who see you as their fathers and mothers, only kinda naked...lol

###*evil grin*

And there is no longer a reason to try to explain why there should be one true way because that is where you are today when others in other places never have to see the faces of your demons that keep you from being where they are in their heads more than in their words.

And WORDS have had more power back in time than it was expected to be law in the Cyber world. And there becomes yet another issue. Because now there are more politics groups and protocol groups on these social sites that are active than there are self help groups for young adults with no older adults in membership.

So life online is becoming hard to find subjects that people with relate too. Without shock value or drama and gossip that others can watch too. And always a need to read each others words as a debate and not a lack of the ability to relate to the OP.

And much of what we suffer from is generational gaps than culture shock from subtle words and strange attentions from people too far away from you to file a complaint...lol

This aint your grandmother and grandfather's vision of freedom of sexual expression in the public realm when the World Wide Web we weave if as dark and as dirty as we tip toe between TOS's and cultural blacklisting just for missing the meaning of a humorous statement at the wrong time. And not enough time to rewind and correct a outside observation and reply in their HO (humble/honest opinion)...

And our children are quickly aging just enough to want to know how to better do this kinky stuff us older folks seem to know a bit more of. And it's hard enough posting your real age. But when your real age becomes the fun age to put on a young persons page like 25, 35, 40ish or 88, it seems that by the time you find out how young these other profile people are and where they have run away from? It's hard to agree on good scene music when they have more songs on their iPod than you can remember good albums you used to listen too that sounds just like that...lol

And as I walk through a land that is more fantasy than reality per capita that the odds of being in a actual mixed crowd can be younger in age than in the ability to know how much more they could be doing if we were not cool enough to let them keep doing what they are doing and not trying to stop them from doing it wrong.


There is no right way.

But there has to be a better way for all of us to do these BDSM lifestyles WDWIITWD....

But this Metro shit is really hard to take when there are more Dominant masochist and submissive Sadist than their are people they like enough to get and idea of what they can deal with and deal with how it is in their street and in their style of life while others have no idea how valuable each person is to their social dynamic more than they are able to learn the one you live without having to write cliff notes for them to read as you flow together or not.

But what is really HAWT, is that somehow I can see a small place in black history for you and Me in the POC BDSM community.

And there is more than Me in this community that can be more expressive if it wasn't for our ability to communicate more civilly.

And I don't think none of yall are deep enough to really be feeling Me.

*pimpish grin*


And sometimes I sit back and think about the First Lady and The President in the White House getting kinky as they want to be.

And I want to be THAT kinky and still just who I be.


A POC in the BDSM lifestyle Community.

Black farmers win settlement over racist lending.

When you think of racism

You seldom think about black farmers.

As a matter of fact

Today

Many of us seldom think about Black Farmers at all.

Thank GOD the new administration in the White House is!

"Justice Department Contends Settlement For Black Farmers Nears"


April D. Ryan
White House correspondent, American Urban Radio Networks

The Justice Department has notified the White House that a settlement is near for black farmers discriminated against by the United States Department of Agriculture. The plaintiffs in this case 80 to 90 thousand black farmers. The issue dates back to the late 1990's and the Clinton administration.

President Obama's 2011 budget proposal includes 1.2 billion dollars in settlement monies for the black agrarians. If approved by congress, it would mark the second time federal funds were allocated for the discrimination award for black farmers in a presidential budget proposal. In the past, President George W. Bush proposed the monies, but, congress cut the farmers hoped for compensation. Rob Nabors, Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget says, "The President [Obama] put forward a proposal last year; and, it is continued in this year's budget where we have a proposed settlement of approximately 1.2 billion dollars. The Department of Justice is currently negotiating the settlement.

"It is about ensuring Justice is done. It is important in this situation," contends Robert Gibbs White House Press Secretary.

John Boyd, head of the National Black Farmers Association contends, "It has been very frustrating for the black farmers. He is hopeful this latest settlement offer, makes it into the black farmers hands after years of promises.

"Nearly 80 to 90 thousand black farmers are waiting for justice and they are getting older everyday and they are dying everyday", says Boyd.

In 1999, 14 thousand black farmers were awarded a settlement from the original lawsuit. Boyd reminds that those farmers received "62,500 a piece totaling over a billion dollars." Farmers who did not know about that initial suit were able to file claims against the United States Department of Agriculture. Now, tens of thousands of black farmers are possibly in line for the federal monies to correct the wrongs by the Agriculture Department.

Boyd contends, "Not all those are going to get their money. Those farmers who are eligible will get there money. Those who are not, will get closure."

Boyd says, the issues originated from a "lawsuit in 97 [1997] for discrimination in farm lending programs and subsidies (farm service agency USDA). The National Black Farmers Association allowed for late file lawsuits in 2008." He also believes the only way farmers will get their overdue settlement monies is if President Obama and the Democrats in Congress fight for the budget item approval.

It was approved!

So Conflict Resolution

Is the key words of this message


Now let Me get back to this letter I got from My HNIC!

Addressed to Me

Arch Bishop AMP
Sir EZ

It says

Conflict Resolution is as simple as taking the time to talk it out over a beer or two

As long as you can keep it real.

And I reads that and says

Lawd Have Mercy On My Soul

I have enlightened

But so few words.

And

Now church

For the matter of time

Because I see that sister So and So has to go get the dinners we are selling down stairs

Directly after we finish here with the lawds work.

Now

Let Me get back to why this letter

Was so enlightening to your Pastor.

I said to My self I said Self!

because that's what I callz My Self

I says

Self!

How

CAN I

Bring this message

BACK

To My Flock

and so I meditated on these words in this message

Over some spiritual herbs and elixirs

And this is what came to Me

While I was in tranced

In deep meditation

And

Contemplation

Of

this message


It hit Me like a orgasm!

Or maybe that was sister charles

Who was on her knees

Praying with Me

Anyhead


I heard the words come down upon Me from GOD himself

He said


AMP

Because GOD likes to call Me AMP

Yeah,

Alpha Master Pimp

AMP!

He says AMP


Tell them

And I listened while GOD spoke because

GOD

Don't like to say things TOOO many time

he says


AMP!

Tell

Your

People

Let that ISH go!

Just stop!

Get control of your emotional triggars

Pump your brakes!

And

THINK

About what may you be missing

That may sound like your dissing

Your fellow man

Because we may be human

But we don't have to understand

Every custom and quirk

That causes feelings to be hurt

Or remind them of some dirt


They may have wanted to forget


He said

Tell them to STOP

And watch what they may not notice somebody else

May not understand why you said what you said they way you said it.

And I said

Lawd...

Now you know My heart!

So when I ask you this question

Take it easy on Me with the lesson

I may have to learn

Because I don't want to burn

Over some mis understanding

And the Lawd said

Ok

Deal

And I said

Lawd

If it be thy will

How can we still have such a problem with not wanting to learn how to better respect

Conflict Resolution

AND The Lawd Spoke

And He said

Stop

Focus

Listen

Step back

THINK

and then

React


And I cried real tears because My fears were no more!


Because it is that easy

Sometimes


Hello church!

I said

SOME

TIMES

We all have to stop!

And then focus on what seems to be missing in your words

Then listen to their reaction

Try to add and don't play subtraction

In your interaction

And then

STEP BACK

And

THINK

Before you react


And it's just that simple

Don't hate the player

Don't play the haters game

There is no shame in conflict resolution

You have to have faith

That they aint that damn stupid


*evil grin*

And that part was in

The letter I got

From The HNIC

Too


So I'm telling you tonight

Don't always be more ready to fight

Than you can be

IF

You can see

We are having a lack of communication


And with that chuchhhh.


I'm gonna leave yall with words in song

Frum are guess choir





And while the choir is playing we will be passing around the plate.

We ask that you give till it hurts

We ask that you make a down payment on your blessings to come

And we will keep you cummin

Let the church say


Amen

Amen


Aye man

 




And before I forget again


Don't forget


The Kitchen is now open

We only take cash for the food

And there are plenty of ATMs for you to use


Now with the words that come from My mouth

And the blessing that flow from My heart

Let the church say again


Reach over to the person next to you and say

Neighbor

NOTHING

SAYS THANK YOU


Like Cash!


Amen?


*wicked grin*

Obama wins a Nobel Prize! And it's only His first year...

For just being the First African American President.
For His stance on Nukes.
For His style and His class.

And for His ability to be respected by the world more than the past few presidents we have had thus far.

He won!

President Barack Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize

By KARL RITTER and MATT MOORE, Associated Press Writers Karl Ritter And Matt Moore, Associated Press Writers – Fri Oct 9, 5:25 am ET

OSLO – President Barack Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples," the Norwegian Nobel Committee said, citing his outreach to the Muslim world and attempts to curb nuclear proliferation.

The stunning choice made Obama the third sitting U.S. president to win the Nobel Peace Prize and shocked Nobel observers because Obama took office less than two weeks before the Feb. 1 nomination deadline. Obama's name had been mentioned in speculation before the award but many Nobel watchers believed it was too early to award the president.

"Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future," the committee said. "His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population."

The committee said it attached special importance to Obama's vision of, and work for, a world without nuclear weapons.

"Obama has as president created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play," the committee said.

Theodore Roosevelt won the award in 1906 and Woodrow Wilson won in 1919. Former President Jimmy Carter won the award in 2002, while former Vice President Al Gore shared the 2007 prize with the U.N. panel on climate change.

The Nobel committee received a record 205 nominations for this year's prize.

In his 1895 will, Alfred Nobel stipulated that the peace prize should go "to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between the nations and the abolition or reduction of standing armies and the formation and spreading of peace congresses."

Unlike the other Nobel Prizes, which are awarded by Swedish institutions, he said the peace prize should be given out by a five-member committee elected by the Norwegian Parliament. Sweden and Norway were united under the same crown at the time of Nobel's death.

The committee has taken a wide interpretation of Nobel's guidelines, expanding the prize beyond peace mediation to include efforts to combat poverty, disease and climate change.
