Why are so many of us reluctant to admit that the internet plays an important role in our everyday activity? Is it shame, uncertainty, embarrassment, ignorance, or just plain silly?

The internet is nothing more then the modern day telephone with the element of sight added into the mix. The whole point of communication is to express oneself while letting the other party involved discover who you are.

Is it possible to see a person through words on a screen? Absolutely, in fact most of the time a few written sentences will be a better indicator than a mouth full of “BS,” as to what kind of person is before you. In other words, when you can see the “BS” in front of you, you’re less likely to step in it.

The bottom line is this…there is no magic to online sites, if you are a jerk, freak, nerd, player, geek, ugly, hot, fat, sexy, in real life the same applies online (eventually the truth will be revealed) . The computer is only as dumb as we make it!

There is nothing new under the sun, it’s all been here since day one. Don’t give the computer a bad reputation just because it’s a visual reflection of the crazy world we live in. It’s amazing how much more we can see and understand when we use our brains, eyes and ears! Just like the telephone if you don’t want to talk just hang up. The real truth is that to most people sites like FaceBook, Twitter and MySpace have become their Best Friends!

Michael Jordan, Martin Luther King Jr., Michael Jackson, Babe Ruth, Abraham Lincoln, Rosa Parks, and this list could go on forever but what if Michael Jordan never held a basketball or Martin Luther King Jr. never made that famous I Have a Dream Speech?

Life is a complex and mystifying phenomenon. If we believe in the notion that everyone is put on this earth for a reason and purpose, what happens when some of those people never make it into the world to see or achieve their mission or purpose in life?

What if you were personally responsible for stopping slavery, or inventing electricity, how about the vaccinations for so many deadly viruses? How far we have advanced in our civilization is a major accomplishment, but how far we could have advanced, or how many wars and tragedies we could have prevented is a better question! If only that unborn soul was allowed to become!

Abortion is a tuff topic, but look at it this way, use your imagination and imagine the following- You can hear but you can not speak, trapped inside of your mother’s womb, you kick, scream, and cry but your efforts are not heard… Over and over you hear the words I am going to kill it, and your heart starts to race, tears start to flow and yet your voice is not heard… I am not here to force any woman to do anything that she does not want to do but switch places with all the unborn babies in the world who can not speak. Do you choose life or death? Very few things in life go on forever, but its amazing that both life and death last forever with a revolving door on each side- don’t stop the door from turning because without it, the puzzle of life would forever be a box of puzzle pieces that’s missing the most important part ,which is the expression of life! No words, no misunderstandings, its a picture that paints a thousands words, which has the ability to be different to each of us, so now imagine a picture of a dead fetus and ask yourself is that a story you want to tell? One that is void of life but yet it expresses a story of great sorrow, and what could have been…

 I’M NOT AFRAID … sometimes life just gets to the point where we need to scream with all that we are, and all that we have- inside life burns with so much frustration that we literally feel strong enough to crush planet earth! What to say? What to do? What’s next? How will this ever work out?

Imagine having the power to dig deep, see the whole picture, ripping yourself inside, only to find that you are made of the hardest substance on earth, and that you can shine no matter what, because you are a diamond!

 “I’m not afraid to take a stand”

Fear has limits, all we have to do is stand up and face them head on aiming right at the heart… bulls eye total self examination with the ability to be yourself regardless of the moment (good or bad)…with an aura of confidence that’s so strong that smiling, and feeling good about throwing your middle finger up at the world is always an option, because you understand that you can be what ever you set out to be and taking over the world is just a starting point because your dreams are bigger than life itself!

“Everybody come take my hand
we’ll walk this road together, through the storm
whatever weather, cold or warm
just let you know that, you’re not alone”

The word together exists for a reason, and when multiplied by such words as friends, and family, it will always leave you invincible. If you choose to stand as one, endurance will deceive you as the rubber band of life starts to stretch, you will soon be faced with the reality that there is no such thing as a single rubber band that can be stretched to infinity. In other words, none of us can hold the world on our backs as we are just not built like that as one. But united no matter how hot it gets, knowing that diamonds are made under heat and pressure reveals to us that it’s possible to come up in the world from the depths of hell!

“Holla if you feel that you’ve been down the same road”

There is nothing new under the sun! How we handle our day to day business is always in our control! Have you ever stopped to notice that your life is crying out for you to take on the heat and become a jewel, gem, or precious individual that’s so strong that you need a magnifying glass to see its cracks? Get your Diamond on! Thanks Eminem, your words seem to express what I feel in my deepest being within my heart beat, blood stream, and mind, so this is my Holla to you because I have been down the same road All I’m tryna say is get back, click-clack BLAOW Cause I ain’t playin’ around !

RAW (listen to the song I’m Not Afraid)

Charm is that most creative quality that delights or attracts. It’s the kind of thing that never stays the same. It mutates every few minutes in order to maintain an aura of magic and control. Why are humans so attracted to charm and often fooled by it?

I’ll tell you why, it’s because charm is faceless! Its equivalent to those imaginary friends we all had as kids when we use to play “make believe.” In our minds those friends were real and their lure was uncontrollable, because they had the potential to do and be what ever we wanted. The imagination is infinite and because of this we often go beyond what’s happen at the moment because we are focused on the end result and not the journey. Remember that life will provide you with many rewards if you recognize and enjoy the process in order to learn from each of life’s experiences as they occur. The sooner you reach you goal the sooner your greatness ends (think about that for a second).

This charm phenomenon happens in life when we go out on some of those first dates only to realize that we have been charmed and the person that’s sitting before us is not the same person that was so smooth on the phone with the talented vocal skills. LOL Charm can capture our attention pretty effortlessly because of its ability to manipulate any given situation, but it is void of endurance and it is for this reason that it wears off eventually. In other words charm is the kind of trait that only has the power to sustain itself for as long as it is performed or practiced. Beware my friends of the kind of charm that is here today and gone the next, avoid it at all cost. If you are asking yourself so how does one do that, the answer is simple PAY ATTENTION!!!! The more you pay attention the more you learn the difference between substance and bullshit.
