You know family....sometimes it's so hard to grow, to know when it's time or where your path may lead. With all my knowing and not knowing, I have often refused to acknowledge what I do know in terms of doing what logic dictates must be done. Why?....cause growth is painful, that's why. It often means leaving so much behind for horizons unseen and unknown. It means too much for me to write about because life for me has been and still is a journey that will not allow my mind or spirit to rest. My death will be a lonely one for I do not long to have others cling to me or to have myself clinging to anyone. What will the remainder of my life be?....I do not know, for I haven't written it yet and my hand trembles with the pen today.

Since the number 9 is the number of completion I want to leave you with these for the wise to acknowledge.

1. History is good to look back on so as to bring the best into the future but not to go back to.

2. No one can fight your battles for you although many may help you to win.

3. No one can ever do for you what you refuse to do for yourself.

4. Your friends are clearly seen in times of adversity.

5. Those who do not support their own is worse than a disbeliever.

6. God/Goddess helps those who help themselves.

7. Since two energies can not occupy the same space at the same time, the choice of positive or negative energy existing within yourself is up to you.

8. Since we all are living to die, it makes no sense for us to be dying to live.

9. Success comes to those who know when it's time to get out of your own way.

Have a Joyous Day !!

As the holy spirrit put it on my heart to say this to You.....



and i say this to you in a form of respect :em0400:not to put you down ...
You have nothing no reputation to lose...DONT LISTEN TO THEM
Dont WATCH THEM .....( i say this to myself to)
we have only our soul we can lose ....
in stead of the Gift of eternal life...



for everything there is a season.....and a time

and this is the time now........





I dont know you i,have not yet readed youre books i,m sorry about that ,i didnt had the time ,i do not know youre right and youre wrongs like youre close ones and like God does ....

but there is one thing in know what he has put on my heart to say to you ...

ithere is one thing and that ......



God is Calling you .....
he has put a work in you to do ...( he has started a Good thing in you will finish it , but the trash he will show it to you what is not from him or knowledge that is not from him)
a great Work among and along with others....

you know this ..! ....

from a long time ago..

but you have been doing this alone for a long time...


you have tried it and walked on paths that leaded you , in some truths and brought out some truths and freedom......... but some of them put limits on you.. and Freedom..

and you know that ....

some were interesting ...

but while you are studying do it with humble heart ask him to reveal ...
to you ''We Dont know everything "' but he will conferm to you what you knew in youre heart ....or what you have seen or experianced around you...





continue growing searching...
because he jezus said "' i will go and send you the compforter who will guide us to the whole truth "'so we are still on our way (to sion , )
but he wil guide us and fight the war for us that you keita somthimes can not fight ...that is why we need him..GOD the father the son the holy spirrit...

I particularly identify with # 8.

Growing to the knowledge that to BE Afreekan in this shystem means engaging in continued acts of SURVIVING!!!....I want to LIVE and this is NOT "living" for me. Having Accepted that has placed me on a path seeking transformation. I'm finding it a lonely journey and seems as if I clearly moving against the grain....fighting to get UP~hill while most others are going downhill and enjoying their ride.

Again...if "living" means to accept this life...... as it is....then....
I'm clearly in my own way of obtaining "success" here...now.
Success appears to be strongly correlated with consistent "positivity"
I'm curious now what people's definition of "negativity":?:
How is it manifested in one's life:?:
What are the specific behaviors characterizing it (negativity):?:
Is "positivity" positively correlated with Spiritual Peace while "living" in a messy shytuation:?:

Anywho....

Thanks for sharing...

M.E.
