I can totally agree with this! “I have no trouble with my enemies. I can take care of my enemies in a fight. But my friends, my godd@mned friends, they're the ones who keep me walking the floor at nights!” - Warren G. Harding LOL! And I can so relate to that!
i always thought it was just one of those sayings that really didn't make much sense, but since it sounds catchy everyone uses it.............
you make way TOO much sense my young brethren of course it doesn't make sense, it's obviously the mindset of the enemy. why would you want your enemies closer. YES YOU ARE RIGHT bro. Jahari it makes no sense. The is not in line with the african spirit. And it's great to see a brother not falling for this crap. that's why i nominated you for president 2012 brethren ay you hit me with your email just send me a something to dss456@hotmail.com peace pham i know you know this bro. J, i'm just speaking in general, just because everybody is doing a certain thing doesn't always mean it's the right thing
No kind of saying like that makes sense on face value. You have to put meaning to it. Good lord. It can mean different things depending on the situation.
No I don't subscribe to this type of thinking... My phylosophy is this... Enemies don't exist... If you beleive in enemies persay it is like submitting to fear in essence... One of my favorite parts in the movie the Great Debators is the part when they are doing the speech exercise... Denzel: who is the judge Response: God Denzel: and why is God the judge Response: because he/she determines who wins or loses Denzel: And who is ur opponent? Response: he doesn't exist Denzel: and why doesn't he exist Response: because he a mere distinction of the truths that I speak I would say that there are people with interests contrary to yours or mine, but when you realize just what god is then what you perceive as an "enemy" may just evolve into a mere reflection of the conciousness of choice.... in that light I would say that I would stir clear of negative influences...
