Expectations and Uncertainties

When I say BLACK LIVE MATTER, this is what I mean; Imagine me before a wild uncontrollable fire with a fire Extinguisher in my hand, it is all I have to beat back the Flames that threaten to devour me, so when I say, BLACK LIVE MATTER, imagine me pointing that fire Extinguisher at the very base of that fire and giving it my All. BLACK LIVE MATTER is a strategy that directs all Efforts and concentration on the very focal point of the wild fire. It gets Straight to the core of the issue and gets the attention of our Counterparts. But some will have you believe that When I proclaim BLACK LIVES MATTER that I pin Myself against you, to say that my life holds more meaning Than yours. NO! NO! NO! This is the LIE! When I yell BLACK LIVE MATTER, it is because I have to in dire this Moment. I am strategically focusing my resources to Ensure the optimal outcome, nothing short of that and I risk losing my own life. I call to you then my dear Counterparts in ...

                 Humor me in saying this, Basketball is religion. And like any true religion there are many devotees. In its early beginnings there was no one STAR(a figure head i.e a Jesus or a Mohammed). There was a cacophony of players all beloved one way or the other. There were your Karims, Chamberlins, Irvins, Birds, Magics... to list a few. Then came the era of the ONE, in the form of the holiest of hollies, Michael Jordan! Loved, adored and hated but in each instance with much fervor. He was wildly accepted and came to replace the old idols to say the least. In him is enshrined the religion of Basketball. There is no avoiding him once the subject of this game is raised. To ignore him is Blasphemy itself. Beware! for the fanatics will stone you for this. After him were a couple of promised ones, it all depends on when you believe that "the promised" one appeared on the scene. There are those that believe in his existence, in the f...

              I am up at 6 O'clock in the morning, time to get up and ready myself for work. First things first, I pick up my phone, I see there are a number of notifications to respond to, but at the moment it is the weather outside that concerns me. I open the weather app, 3 degrees Fahrenheit, real feel -15. It is to be expected, its about mid February in Minnesota. I lay down the phone, walk into the bathroom. A quick brush of the teeth, then hop in to the shower for a quick 10 mins hot wash. I reemerge in my room and get dressed for work. I have twenty minutes before I set out. I go upstairs into the living room and turn on the TV. The morning's coverage of the news carries the usual political rants, end of the world crisis stories and a dash of celebrity gossip. I hop onto my laptop and access my personal email. I quickly reply to one query and read the response of another and proceed to delete several other less important emails (ads, promotiona...

On a entendu parlé longuement du fait qu'il existe une disparité, autour de l'attentat à Paris et le massacre dans la ville de Baga en Nigerie. Ce disparité parle d'attention média que chaque événement a reçu suivant les attacques et aussi pourquoi le monde n'a-t-il pas rassemblé derriere la Nigerie comme on a fait pour la France. On dirait que dans l'affaire mondiale L'Afrique est toujours oublié et on l'ignore. J'accepterais cet argument à certaine point mais je ne me suis pas du tout convaincu que c'est si simple. Oui, dans certaine regard, on ignore souvent les problemes de pays africaines. Mais dans ce cas-là, on doit éviter de jouer la victime et prend de responsabilités pour nos propres problemes. On se demande pourquoi que les evenements à Paris ont été plus médiatisé que ceux des Boko Haram en Nigerie? La reponse est que au contraire de Baga, à Paris, dès de la premier nouvel, il y a eu une très forte reaction et une croissance du soutien p...

La Magie de Noël DEHORS Toute est blanche, couverte de neige. La neige tombe doucement du ciel et sans cesse. On imagine le monde comme une boule à neige. Il fait froid mais pas trop, le moment est parfait. On a l'impression que toutes brille. A L'INTERIEUR On sent l'odeur de sapin et de fumée. Dans le foyer, un feu qui flambe, jaune. On sent bien dans le foyer. On a pour compagnie, la chaleaur du feu, L'odeur agréable du sapin et le son d'une Chanson douce et lente venant d'une platine. Le grand fauteuil marron devant la cheminée Est la place favorite dans toute la maison. http://itsblackmike.vsco.co/media/547e2da32d5615cb578b456a

I cant breathe! YOUR world suffocates me. YOUR world, Yes! YOUR world because You have never made me feel welcomed in it. Am very much the alien, lost in YOUR world. Never ceasing to remind me that I am different. My very breathe is snatched from me every time You remind me that I am just a wanderer passing through With nothing of my own, the little that I have you Take, unrelenting.  YOUR world, YOUR rules I cant live this stifling existence. Is there anything more Hopeless? Living in the shadows of an existence that One has complete devotion to but gains very little in return, Not even the basic respect of human dignity.
