Would you choose YOU?

This is to be answer with you standing in front of a mirror if you dare!

If you were one that was given the chance/choice to have a faithful/honest/truful partner/friend Thur-out your lifetime, one that would never change regardless of whatever pressures/challenges/mistakes to occur for whatever reason; would you choose YOU?

You could have been great.

It's really sad to see so many God given gifts being wasted or either cut off at the root, most suffering from this are those who have no control of their tongue. I have no ideal what racist remark caused an proven Olympic athlete to be removed from the games, her undoing was caused by her own tongue. When one is blessed to be of an certain ability for accomplishing dreams/goals and is with out the discipline for self respect/respect for others, they are in no way on path to receive/ accomplish the ultimate of what to be possible with their gift. I by way of experience over the years with working with pro/amateur athletes male/female have seen potential world champions because of having no control of their tongue be relinquished to could have been. It was a time back when those that exhibited these gifts mainly in football/boxing (sports), respected themselves and others in their field and the separation of who is best was settled on the floor/field of choice. Until there is a going back to realizing that good/moral character is what real athletes/champions possess, anything other; is based in ignorance and fear of being exposed.

It's their culture.

This young lady while on vacation from college and visiting her grand parents on a small country farm, at the dinner table her grand mother asked her about her new friends, she replied;  "the people I met weren't actually who I thought them to be and one in particular was loud, behaved very badly when we went  places", her grand father remove his corn pipe blew a puff of smoke and said; " If I go out to the barn and dress one of those donkeys in a tuxedo and bring him to a dance how do you think he would behave? she being puzzle said nothing. Her grand father smiled and said; "he would make loud noises, pull and kick; because that tuxedo and being in a different place can't change him from being and acting an ass."

No substance but loud noise.

A very well manner young lady while at her grand mother's house notice workers moving containers/old machinery from her garage, she couldn't believe how quiet they were while working. The young lady asked her grand mother the question; "how is it dishonest politicians, lying people, ten minute fame seekers having no way of producing what they shout about, seem to be more verbal than those that are the complete opposite? her grand mother smiled, gently reach for her hand and walked next to an open window, she said grand ma' whats that loud noise? Her grand mother pointed to an empty wagon being moved.

Need for another Columbus.

With the way most of today's society has chosen to exist, that being; many given over to a mind-set of doing their own thing, stuck in this duplicate ignorant way of thinking as most republican policticans; no need for life's regulations (proper order). We definitely need another Columbus for some how discovering a method fot the attainment of common sense.

We might as well pack up.

!!!Warning!!! We can't afford to loose/give away another generation, if we do we might as well pack up hope for having any chance of a purposeful existence. I really believe my generation is the last of the teaching/intercepting and saving of those abandon/dropped by the generation which preceded them. How is it where you have an atmosphere of  disorder that it be possible to have things as God initially intended it to be. No one in their right mind can believe this world being on the course it is, can result in there being peace/joy/coming together as respectful human beings (I did say those in their right minds!). Many (persons) of today's society are caught up in the me/my culture which is a destructive thing in itself, and it  leaves no room for accepting what has proven to be the right way evidenced by the ruin of those which traveled the me/my path. Even those that don't believe in the true God (by way of Jesus Christ) should be able to see the cliff's edge that this world is very, very close to, we might as well pack up.

Dreams that becomes nightmares.

When one is with out the wisdom/ability to discern those or that which hides it's true character/origin in deceptiveness; that  which comprises all sort of evil that's purpose is to use/ruin/destroy. One will be as those that for whatever reason disdains the advise and guidance of those that are equipped for battling these forces by way of their own experiences and or obedience to those that protected them by sharing their wisdom. All one has to do is look around, sometimes just in their on homes to see evidence of what desired beautiful dreams turned out to be an family member's nightmare. There has come time for there to be boldness for truth in communicating with those we love and all others in our tangible circles concerning signs that may be present and for whatever reason being over looked, resulting in us or the ones we love/care about falling victim to these nightmarish relationships/associations. If one chooses to denied for whatever reason and not equip themselves with the knowledge or people with the wisdom for facing and overcoming this; they will with out doubt be an potential victim.      "keeping it real!

" I really wish I had the gift of being a professional writer, I would love to make my blogs worthy of being published in a book.

Life's implosions.

A wise man/women notice a young man/lady sitting along a bridge's end with his/her head hanging down, the wise man/women said it's not as bad as it appears. The young man/lady responded; "I've made a mess of my life, The wise man/ women replied; "even thought that may at the moment be true, for some reason you've now realized that money/ sex/lying/so called friends/unwise relationships, marriages can't give whats needed for feeling complete (happy,  joy)."  The young lady/man responded; "I've really ruined my life", gently smiling and placing his/her hand on the young man's/lady's shoulder and saying; "you have accepted the responsibility for your life's former blessings imploding, which is the result and one of the ways life deals out consequences, but because of your now state of mind for being sorrowful/truthful; God can build on that same base (one's life) He removed a blessing from."

Its raining sorrows.

It is so sad to see so many of those that are of good and great ability to reach certain plateaus, only to  come tumbling down because of abandoning that which is the only thing (honesty) able to keep one solidly rooted. I being a Coach know it to be a fact; others look at leaders to pave the way for their being able to attain their desires/goal, when that leader is found to be as or worst then those that he/she condemn; what do you think the effect are on those that depended on him/her for guidance? I as a father/grand father pray to God that I at no time willingly or allow myself to be deceive into doing or supporting anything that would cause my family shame. I came up in the fifties and I believe my witnessing and experiences the things I did gives me authority to say; "how is it; anyone that is blessed to get into a system that was locked to their people forget the lives lost/personal sacrifices and importance for them being there.

This writing is not for condemning the fallen, but it is to let them know; we will always accept you back and we will continually love you, but you did cause's yourselves and our pain! Keeping it real.

Champion.

I came to this place because my Creator loves to look at and share His (God) greatest work to all, even those that may not at the moment for whatever reason have the ability to see/appreciate His work of beauty/greatness. I must stay strong/discipline/humble while traveling on my path; which will enable me to overcome all of Satin's planed obstacles that will be in my way. When I arrive at my path's end to be rewarded for what is my purpose; then all will see what He (God ) purposed me,,, Champion!

He stoped the fight.

There was this big fight being promoted by a young demon to settle a dispute between two others, an older demon passing by asked why would they fight one another? He responded; "they were becoming bored complaining about there not being enough potential victims for sport in deceiving/ruining/destroying." The older demon said to him get on this cloud and come with me,  some ways down  they stopped over this neighborhood where adults, children parents, authority leaders/clergy persons were entertaining themselves in all kinds of evils/ignorance. The young demon said; "I'll have to call and cancel the fight."

Making of a fighter.

The making of a great fighter is like that of building a solid wall, each particle being used has significance if in proper order. The brick mason is the one for engineering the building, the bricks for the shaping and the mortar for the binding. The Coach can't be someone with just a tower on his/her shoulder (has to be proven!), the fighter as is the brick willing to be laid and the discipline is the mortar (obedience to instructor/ respect for oneself/others). when the wall has been built in this proven to be sustainable order; it is solid and able to be tested for it's strength, any deviation from this order would result in the wall being as sheet rock.

One of the two will be tralved.

Imagine a young baby at the age of three sitting in a chair facing two World tour guides,each requesting permission for guiding his/her life.

The Guide having several names; deceptive/ignorance/destroyer, dressed in glitter/gold speaking loud/cursing and showing the image of a winding road then promising the baby great successes when he/she travels it's path. The Guide name wisdom with this peaceful glowing countenance walks up to the baby, reaches out gently grasping the baby's hand then pointed to an image of a straight and narrow road and whispered "I'm the result of it's travel."

How could you look me in the eye?

It's so sad I have to write a blog such as this but I think if the conscience are shaken; there may be a chance of us becoming meanful in an other's life. If I was a kid in this day in time my conversation/questions directed toward most adults today would be as follows (family members included); how could you with a straight face look into my eyes and ask  me to do my best to become someone productive/successful for family/friends/community and you not once reach for your wallet/purse, how could you say to me keep up the good work you're doing in your field of choice and not once reach for your wallet/purse, how could you with a straight face  tell me why its not wise to hang with those that do bad things and not once reach for your wallet/purse, how could you pat me on the back when with your associates/church members and say this is a good well mannered kid and not once reach for you wallet/purse, how could you have read/seen all of my past accomplishment's and need for your support and you still not reach for your wallet/purse? I'm sure the last thing I would say as a kid; I saw you reach for your wallet/purse to dress your best at my young friends court date, I saw you reach for your wallet/purse to support the new  incarceration  building which house's young people like me that had know one to reach for their wallet/purse.

Bent but not broken

I wish I had been given the gift to be a writer so I could write a book of certain parts of my life's journey.

As I go back over my past concerning my work done in the lives of those who caused me much discomfort, stresses, unwarranted heart felt pain. I thank God for the strength given me through my having gone through those experiences with and caused by those I love very much. I can honestly say there were many bumps, betrayer, pains, deceptive pretences I experienced by way of certain ones of those I love and did my best to protect and keep away from the evils that were targeted against me with themselves accompanying the originators. Being one that came up in the fifties I'm very knowledgeable of what injustice and evil intentions are regardless of who or what spews it. I back then witness and on occasion experiences those and that which challenge others soul  by way of denying/oppressing severely fueled by hate and ignorance. I suppose because of those experiences I brought into my life's journey the passion for trying to correct certain evils targeted at an other human being. I can say without hesitation no one back then could have convinced me in anyway that those in my program and or those associated would allow the thought lest on the evil which was done to even cross their minds. I believe myself to be one that cares about others without any preconceived reason for trade or depth own me. I will say, I thank God for allowing me to go through the things He did and His keeping me humble and grounded in what I believe to be my purpose in this life. I will not denied the fact that a great deal of those I love bent me real good, but they didn't break me. I believe my going through some of the things I have, some being by result  of my at time being disobedient or ignorant moments along with God's intended allowing has caused me to be much wiser in the area  for discerning those that need be and additional needed strength for my future working with others.

Quest for joy.

The question was asked of a wise man; what makes some people do are give audience to things/those that ruin/disrespect/destroy them? His answer was; "all that have breath wither, they be wealthy or poor has inside of themselves this urge to feel good (which is really joy), even when they are without the knowledge of how this is ONLY attainable through God by way of His Son Jesus Christ." He also explained that the urge can never be eliminated nor remedied by (plural) things/persons from the outside, but is only possible by a inner singular entity named Joy.

Money spends where the heart is.

When you teach a kid in his/her early age who God is, it is in that time he/she learns who they are. I can't for the life of me understand how there is this out cry for locking kids away and destroying their lives/family structure and not be this same amount of energy directed toward helping them learn the way for being productive in home/community/Country. Most (kids/young adults) have found themselves trapped in today's society's crime culture as result of those adults and ineffective leaders/clergy who have themselves for whatever reason not stood firm in positions of authority. Here is your chance for helping to do what should and needs be done on behalf of our youth, use the finances you may blow in a month for non essential things in supporting Champ "Elijah Wilson" up coming chance at competing in Ringside International World Championships in Kansas City MO, July 30th Thur August 5th. If you choose not to for what ever reason support Champ, channel those finances to helping a program of your choice, God does bless us for reason of blessing his behaved creation.

What ladder you used?

This extremely rich/wealthy man was in debate with a wise man concerning the methods used for attaining life's riches. The extremely rich man given an hour's  time at the podium for explaining his method for getting out of poverty toward the gaining of his wealth. He told the crowd about his countless amount of bank accounts/automobiles/people at his beckons call, and he has all kinds of different beverages of the world in his refrigerator, how he had to climb his ladder's steps to where he now is. The wise man had a three feet wooden ladder he used to get up to the podium and face the extremely rich man and said; "I am seventy eight years old and drive a well up kept car, my refrigerator has in it; water/milk/juice/eggs from the corner store, God has blessed me with great health and wealth of family/friends" looking at the clock showing three minutes passed he said; "the ladder I used to attain this wealth was wooded steps to jobs and never an other's human being back for stepping on for its gain or keeping."

There's two after your attention.

A young man/young lady once asked a wise man/wise women how is it that today's society has no negative effect on you? the wise man/wise lady responded; "I was blessed with two parent who at my early age taught me who they were and who I was and what was their beliefs, at no time allowed me to not understand the keeping of this order." The young man/young lady replied; " but we or now in a time where your way is obsolete and everyone has the right to do as they believe to be best for themselves. the wise man/wise women "chuckled' and responded; "son/sweetheart, first of all under what stone is it written my way is out dated? I was instructed and guided in the way of wisdom which evidence stands by way of today's society's hardships/ruin/destruction of one's self and others, attached to reality's view which can't be denied or hidden." the young man/young women partially paralyzed by truth says nothing. When anyone follows those that follows those that don't know and have no way of knowing where they're headed, you have what you see in today's society none order or meaning for. Lets answer this question of one having a right to their way or thoughts; there is a right and a wrong and no twisted terminology can ever change that, proven by results identified by what's called consequences. In this life there are two directional paths after your attention and each has their agents bidding's for your decision of choice. I would wish that all with the capability for discernment and if not; attach yourselves to those who do, choose wisely, after all; its your life and soul at risk.     Something to think about huh!!

Holding on to a dream.

My writing this blog at the time takes a great deal of courage, reason being; I was almost at the point of maybe believing my dream of one day owning my own boxing/fitness gym and developing a world professional boxing champion was beyond my attaining. I for thirty plus years have committed myself in the areas of helping the youth/young adults in the avenue of sports, mainly boxing pro/amateur and almost all of the time after I get the athlete to the steps of accomplishment I've either been betrayed by some of them, asked by those who's gyms I've help put on the map to pack up my program but the ones in it can stay if they were to join their ranks. It really gets to be taxing after years of what seem to be the same outcome regardless how fair I treat those (athletes) and the owners of the facilities. I have heard from others (sometime family members) maybe its something I do to cause this what seems to be a never ending occurrence, I look back over the years and focus on each and every individual ever involved in my program. I wouldn't disagree that if any blame for what I've went through is maybe over stepping my boundaries as trying to be a parent along with coaching, as for as the gym movement; the owners objectives are for whatever reason after a period of time different from that of mine. I've reached out, talked to those much wiser then what I am concerning my aggravation doing the moment of the stresses, and receiving the answer which already lies deep down in my soul; never ever give up on my dream. I've heard from young people who have and some which still benefit from the program to hang in there and never give up. I path myself to looking at the documented history of those who at one time passed through highway similar to mine, I found Tyler Perry a young man who's work I have the highest appreciation for along with his unmovable stance in God. Tyler Perry's advice for success on YouTube prove to be encouraging and a great up lift for me helping in my deciding not to let anything are anyone push me off of the path of my dream. And if God for whatever reason not manifest its birth I can be pleased in that ; I intend to give it my all as long as He  (God) continues to privilege me with life.
