It really hurts.

Most people for what ever reason have momentary numb themselves to their's or anothers inner pain, by way of seeking things/people/consuming drugs and other numbing agents. There exist today millions suffering form this truth wither they be wealthy/famous/poor. I believe those that allow themselves to be fool because of their stance in un-proven belief's exclude one from suffering, is the soul reason for so many captives. When all one has to do is look at most who supposedly have everything, there inner pain can't and has not been remedied by what they materially posses. It is my honest prayer that this pain drive them to those that God has taken this burden off by way of acceptance of His Son Jesus Christ, away from those and that they themselves if honest kown to be compounding their pain and closer arrival to death. I sorrowfullly admitt by reason of those of us who have knowledge of this relief and life changer/saver, has not for whatever reason stood bold as evidence for those who are trully in need of this truth. No one can make me believe that God wishes any to go through unnecessary hardship., grant you there or those that think any suffering is un-fair, ASK YOURSELVES; is it possible to enter a body building contest with out the suffering through weight training? As always stated; my reason for what I write is that of my convictions/belief and sometimes humor lol!! and in no way a means for condeming or deceptively pulling any to what's my belief's!

Which are you; spark or fan?

If most would use that which I believe we all posses, that being commom sense. I with out doubt believe there would be less miss-understanding/bitterness/confrontation. Is it documented anywhere a forest fire started a spark? When you have a society that has the ability for all kinds of ways to communcate regardless of location and there is not added desire/reason to question for validation that which has come across those lines, you then have what is evident today; others judging things/people they know entirely nothing about. One dosen't have to be a rocket scientist to see how this ignorance has set fire to homes/family/friendships. There are two elements that's associated when there is a fire; that which causes the spark and the winds that fans it.

Am I at fault?

After hearing what appears to be concern about my results in time spent with most in my fitness/boxing program, I decided to talk to myself concerning this. 

I first began with stating that I without doubt known those concern to be for reason of  their love towards me.

I asked myself is it wrong/unwise to continue in helping/trying to help others in the areas of fitness/boxing offered by my program? Because of the history of those that have left the program over the years I hear from others that it has to be a reason for why some which has benifited in ways evident by been apart of the program now act as if they never even knew I exist. I welcome these concerns and thank those that bring them about wither it be for reason of believing I'm not effective or concerns for my being appreciated. I believe I have given my all to those that in some way have been apart of my fitness/boxing program (mostly young adults), never by reason of any pre-conceived expectation for reward monetary/material or favors of any kind. I have accepted the fact that I sometimes may have over stepped my bondaries as showing the love and concern of a father may have caused some to be done with me. I believe myself to be one over the thirty years plus to be one to have and still today shown everyone that came through this program the highest of respect. I can't know/say what someone will or want at some time do/say negativly of myself or enyone else after time spend with them, I can say that; there are those that without doubt has and still today benifits from time spent with myself and my deceased friend/partner Dawson "legend" Barze results of time spent in this program. I believe myself to be Wiser by the necessary adjustments made in my now working with people (mainly young adults). I have also come to accept the fact that for whatever reason, there are those that want appericate /be honest toward those which release such gesture towards them.

Great numbers are guilty.

Its no use to ask what in the world is going on in people brains, because most will come up with reasons that's dear to themselves. I can't for the life of me understand how some people accuses the devil for haven gotten so powerful when he's not the one causing most of his victories. It is clear as a tear coming from a newborn eye how most who are fallen to evil has caused/brought it upon themselves. How is it, those think themselves to be wise when they refuse to deal in truth but hold on to ignorance for reason of monetary/sexual/material gain/unwilliness to resolve. I'm not one void of knowledge for knowing all aren't aware or for whatever reason knowledgeable in areas for avoiding the rails of the devil, my concerns lie in the areas of where those that are eligible for the attainment of this wisdom disdains it for reason of selfishness/envy/jealousy/mean/unforgiving/lazy.This world (today's society) has gotten itself in a horrible way because of the previously stated, families are being torn apart/friendships being given over to the destroying of one another, husband/wife/child targeting the other with malice instead of love which was God's initial purpose. I am alarmed and very much sadden by whats become of,, let me put it this way; if a donkey really want to know what other name he's called, all he need do is look at most of today's society!

Some of the main reasons heartful hurt/guilt/sorrow and need for forgiveness is given birth at most funerals!

It's now in the fire

There one day was this repairman knocking on this great big golden door in Heaven, on the other side an Angel asked who was it and what was the purpose of his knocking for days/hours /months/years? The repairman replied; "I was delivered a package from here long ago because of my talent for fixing/repairing things, the Angle responded; "Sir I'm aware of the package you're inquiring about and you shouldn't worry about wither you failed in what was your purpose time, we sent it to you because of your knowing how to show patience in fixing damage goods that others want touch." The repairman told the Angel that he grew so fond of the package over the years but other repairmen have it now and it hurts him so deeply knowing he had not finished the work and  their may be more damage being done then was originally, the Angel responded; "you are one that love your work in the beginning and after, the One who sent it to you is very pleased with your time/part of it's rebuilding, He knows where it now is and has the authority/means for seeing it's finish."

Knowing your lane.

I see the world today as being spinning uncontrollably and causing much dizziness, evidence by the way a great deal of today's society is living as being drunk and trowing up all kind of whats been put in one's being, My years of experience through mistakes/going through/sometimes been disobedient to those who have with out doubt proven to be wise has brought me to where I've gotten tough skin (wiser). I have learned through these avenues the reasons for great deals of hurt/misunderstandings and even why some unfairly side with those that are as ignorant as they are. It is apparent  that when one is not in agreement with another wither it be in choice for life style or what ever, the problem comes by way of disrespect vocally/physically. I believe that when any has in their mind/heart decided to do that which maybe the opposite of the doing/belief of another, there should be respect shown even if there is with out doubt reason for concern. My been taught a certain way and instructed in the path for that which I believe and have chosen to hold on to, allows me to love others and not condemn even if their paths are different from that of mine. I believe every man/women when in the stage of their lives for making choice, is themselves responsible for the attached  consequences which will follow regardless of what way was chosen. My belief in God's Word taught me that I'm to follow Him to the letter if I truly believe, never once it instructs to disrespect those/that only He has authority over allowing /changing.

Simple mathematics.

 Two retired teachers was having a discussion about most of today's society, one said in his day they would have failed his math class. The other teacher asked how could he know that? He replied; "many today leave away from those that teach the basic mathematics for allowing them to know what is their actual sum." The History teacher asked him to explain, he responded; "lets use athletes who rely on what they've already learned and have attached themselves to those which comes with smiles/money/gifts and promises,  after a reasonably time has past for what should have resulted from such move and there has not be an manifesting that to me is subtraction and not addition; simple mathematics.

Which of the two

While others were sitting in the audience and some by other means witnessing a wise man and a fool who agreed to set down and discuss the difference in their ways.The wise man was asked why was he cleaning this big mirror on the side of them? he responded; "because if the conversation gets heated we can both see who your followers and mine are. The wise man had skin smooth as a baby's butt, results from his path chosen in life. The fool had scars all over his body and anger/discomfort on his face doing the whole conversation. Those of you that's chosen to read this blog, is this mirror clean enough?

Are you really a friend?

Just think if those of us who consider ourselves to be an other's friend would really be a friend, there would be less miss-understanding/unnecessary losses of whatever/stresses. There are many who agreed with those they know aren't on point as for being honest/knowledgeable concerning certain things/people. Seems to me, a friend should be that as a strong honest parent clothed in truth/honest/ authority for telling one the truth of their error regardless of their being willing to accept it or not. It is my feeling that those that entertain or accept everything someone tells them about someone else as if its factual and not attached to that which can validate the saying, they themselves for whatever reason possesses not the wisdom for discernment or is in some way dependent/expecting something of that person for whatever reason. We are at a time where that which should have been said and wasn't by those of us supposedly clothed as friend, has cost others treasures that can no longer be attained/restored.

Putting a stop to slander

When anyone have for what ever reason been removed/removed themselves from another/place, themselves stated that the current place/people possesses that which wasn't attainable at/with the previous. After a reason period of time passed how is it possible for it to be the blame/purpose for them not receiving that which they tell others they have on one who is no longer around? It is bad /unwise to for what ever reason slander the character of those that has documentary evidence against this craziness, it can also cause those that for what ever reason who never researched theses accusations for validation, taking side by ignorantly supporting in sometimes physical/continuing the spread of slandering. I am at the end of trying to combat this through conversation with ignorance and geared on what may need to be judiciary.

True love is not that which is generated by momentary emotion because of what ever preconceived expectation.

It is that which attach itself to that which is worthy because of it's attachment and not expectation.

Time has come!

It comes a time in a man's life necessary adjustments should be made:

As I scan back over the memories which have been inscribed in my life's history, with my working with others and young people, I'm able to see where I was affective/non-affective along with been taken for granted/used/lied to/lied on and betrayed/disrespected. I believe myself to be one that through my operating over the years as a coach in sports activities currently being boxing, someone that has been positively productive in the lives of those I came in contact with. I spent a great deal of time/money and denying my wife and family (including myself) quality time because of sacrifices concerning my passion for trying to enhance the lives of those that were on the receiving end of this gesture (deserving/non-deserving). When God is the One that put a Man/Woman in a leadership roll toward those He wishes to bless with whatever. Believe me; they better have tough skin because there will be stresses/lost of sleep worrying about those that fall under this commission for all sort of reasons. I can say without hesitation; I have yet to come across a kid that could not be guided into where he/she was purposed. All of my static and discomfort have come through supposed matured/honest adults. I have put up with making possible for others to become that which they desired or came close to it manifestation only to be ostracizes after their arrival and new made friends/associates. There has been some success stories, one in particular Terrance "Tank Dogg" Dumas. We met through a friend who knew me over the years in boxing and my work with at risk youth/young adults. Terrance agreed to the rules I laid down along with my deceased friend/partner Dawson "legend" Barze. He beat the lure of the drug culture/street crime and has become a well respected family man/ mentor/Professional boxer/Associate Pastor and homeowner in Little rock Arkansas.

It has come time for me to step away from the what seems to be never ending negative feed back form those whose gyms I find myself operating my program out of. I thank God for those He has privileged me to work with over the years and His keeping me humble through the rough times shared in this journey. I will now focus on my immediate family (wife/children/grand kids). I intend in a small way be involved in amateur boxing but will not be in any one's gym. I have been asked to leave my last gym!

I have no regrets for my time spent over the years with all of those I have trained in the area of amateur boxing. Love! God Bless!!

A very Wise man who live in a peaceful area in the country was noticing his daughter's children being disrespectful/rebellious, he called his daughter out to the area where he was feeding the live stock and gave her a picture he had just taken of his donkeys, she being puzzled asked him what was this for? He responded; "the only way for them to one day face life and not be surprised by what it returns, is they know who they actually are; have your kids cover their mirror with this picture so they can see the ass they're becoming."

Time to wake up.

There was a time where prevention was in place for what (evils) was awaiting those that were of a certain sector. It was known in the home and families/community through teaching/discipline which prevents one from becoming a victim by way of ignorance. Today's mind-set of some has caused them to destroy (kill) one another and also become commodity for others who thrive financially on their ignorance. All one has to do is look around to see how schools/ industrial trade training facilities has been replaced by incarceration establishments. When one for what ever reason not properly rear their children nor concern themselves for structuring of government; he/she will one day find themselves unwilling participants of an set order. Sleep is good for when there has been tiredness after effort in supporting/structuring what needs be, but; nightmares also accompany sleep. "Dam it people! its time to wake up.

Unseen prison.

After visiting their daughter an elderly couple was watching a television show with their grand kids along with her boy friend, one of the grand kids asked the grandparents is it true they can see things others can't? the mom's boy friend laughing at the question while touching her in a disrespectful manner. The Grandmother responded;  "we can see others imprisonment." The younger grand kid seemingly enjoying the program depicting females as being sex objects. The grandfather shaking his head and the grandmother with a tear in her eye, one of the grand kids asking what was wrong with her? The grand father responded; "she can see how the TV shows help with a great deal of others imprisonment, but her also being able to see who's holding the key in front of the imprisonment door her family is behind causes her pain."

If grandma was a police officer.

While at a family Reunion every on was gathered around this huge picnic table discussing careers and potential careers. There were a large amount of females in this family, one of the family members asked a seventy five year old grandparent who was a retired police officer;  "what could she have done if her time was as today's"? She spit out a piece of tobacco and said; "back then my beat was on the strip where it was bad with prostitution and most arrest were made by certain dress profiling, I could have earned a medal just by the arrest I could have made in this family."

There's purpose for time.

Every year in the fall there were great numbers of people from different parts of the world visiting this ninety eight year old elderly lady's home. One of the reporters on the tour from another country asked the elderly tour driver who was she and what causes her to draw this amount of attention? He responded; "she's a world wide cooking champion and has been for seventy five years." he then asked whats her secret? The tour driver "chuckling" replied; "she only reveals part of it to those who visits her, she tells them how cooking is as life" the reporter responded; "how is that possible"? the elderly driver replied;
"when preparing food that's to be eaten by those which is necessary for the sustaining of life, there has to be the proper ingredients put in the mix and the most important thing is it being given time in the fire for becoming the meal its purposed to be." the reported asked; "how has she live healthy and in her right mind all this time."? The bus came to a stop in front of this old house, sitting on this front poach in a rocking chair with a cook book in one hand and a Bible in the other was the tour driver's mom.

There's a difference.

While walking his girlfriend who was skimpily dress to the bus stop, people in cars while passing by was shouting out. The young man on the way home stopped by his grand father's house and seeing this lady passing by dress to the tee, the young man whistled and she ignored him. He responded; "every one knows she's a call girl and my old lady is stacked better then she is anyway." His grand dad "chuckling :))!" replied; "son, there's a difference." The young man now puzzle said huh!, he responded; "your old lady may get a few dollars for how she freely exposes herself and is stack, but! She gets paid big dollars for one to first be privilege to witness/see what she says is."

If they're in, we're out.

There was this great big beautiful jungle which had every member of the food chain in it. After about a hundred years there was becoming a diminishing of everything needed to maintain its existence/beauty. One day there was a meeting called between these huge crocodiles and some frogs along with other smaller animals of the forest. This certain frog was voted to be spokes person for all others living in the forest. He said, "we can save our forest and enhance our  place of beauty and things can go back to the way they should be", one of the over weight crocodiles asked how could this be done? the frog responded? "You and your family and friends will have to cut back on eating most of us and drop your weight which will curve your appetite and greediness", some of the smaller crocodiles along with a few friends was in agreement with the frog. The over weight Crocodile hiss and other large ones with him crawled out of the meeting. The over weight crocodile speaking to his followers said; "If we allow that elected frog to do what's being suggested that means the end of who we are", one of the followers replied: "so what do we do to put a stop to it"? He responded; "we destroy their top frog and his main supporters", another follower shouted out; "my relatives and best friend are with them", he hiss out loudly and said; "to win a war there sometimes has to be collateral damage, if it goes there way it means no more of us."

This writing inspired by: When its plan as day in today's political circle how certain things are blocked/taken away for reason of denying/blinding people to the truth. How could one get a job when you deny educational opportunity by closing schools/training facilities, building incarceration building supporting the well planed new stock market for (housing modern slaves).

A certain seed is going to fall.

I believe it to be the desire of all that comprises common sense; "that life while and after it's end has/had purpose." I would hope that my life has in some way been as a beacon of light to others as for living in a manner which in no way purposely cause anyone/thing unnecessary hardship of any kind;  I would not dare to say or believe that this was not possible or ignorantly done in my past." Life when travel through an been given grace (God's blessing) even in one moments of short coming of what ever kind, generates (in my case) a motivation toward growth in moral maturity and not falling to the traps/depths for becoming a fool. Today's reluctantly given and available opportunities for people of my race  (including: other poor ethnicity) which was not possible in my  younger years, and sad to say; then backed up by laws to prevent one from attaining what is being taken for granted and being allow to be stripped away  by most of those which others died for to make sure they have. I see how today's mind-set for freedom/allowing one to do his/her on thing and there not be any regulatory rules (boundaries) has cause society to go into a madness sphere, evidenced by the way some of our leaders/parent/clergy has become the complete opposite of what they should be, and leaving our youth to be with out teacher/protector/ guide. I must say, "I can agree with those that find this task of correcting this derailment of life to be some what difficult, but to not attempt to correct it; "seeds its growth."

In this community that was exceedingly peacefully there were hundreds of elderly Wise men/women looking out toward the city with binoculars. A prominent news reporter in that quiet town noticed this from his news van every time he passed them going into the big city. He while on his way to work one day stopped and asked one of the wise men/women the reason for their every day doing this? One of the Wise men/woman responded; "we have been in some way apart in many of the lives that live in that big city, most of them for what ever reason went on to other places; we're watching to see if their time spent with us has prove to be fruitful."
