                   GAMBLES AND RISKS

                 Life has many gambles and risks in every
                 area and aspect. If a person goes to a
                 poker-game with one-thousand dollars-
                                              Now-  If that person
                 is wise, they're going to first, make sure that all
                 of their other bills and obligations are paid and
                 taken care of...
                                 Second. That person is going to
                 seriously think about if they can really afford
                 to lose or gamble one-thousand dollars...
                                                       Okay. Now lets
                 say that person has all of their important bills and
                 obligations paid and taken care of. That person now
                 has to decide if what they're really gambling on is
                 risk or foolishness...
                                       There are times, when you may
                 not know that a gamble or a risk is actual foolishness
                 until it's too late and you've already lost...
                                         The wise person will learn
                 their lesson and grow stronger...
                                                  If they win, the
                 wise person will quit while they're ahead.
                 In other words, use common-sense overall....

    NOBODY ASKED FOR THAT LIE THIS EARLY IN THE MORNING.

     What is it now?... Yea. I knew that was a bold-faced lie
     when you said that you tried to contact me last week....
     You know what? It was a great day until you opened your mouth
     just now and let that lie, along with the other lies roll out
     of your mouth-
                    Give it a rest...
     Nobody asked for that lie, this early in the morning. The sun
     hasn't even risen, yet...
                              It's still a great day but, like I said,
     nobody asked for that lie, this early in the morning that you've
     just told. I don't need this.
                                  Bless you but, save all of the
     deceit and the drama-
                          Have a great day but please, nobody asked for
     that lie, this early in the morning....

                        It's not a good-idea to date
                        anything and everything wearing
                        a skirt because, for one, it's not
                        healthy because, you could end up
                        making troubles for yourself including,
                        confusion that could come back to haunt
                        you, sooner or later....
                                                And you could also
                        end-up unintentionally hurting someone or
                        others...  Love and attention are important
                        but, it's just not a good-idea to date
                        anything and everything wearing a skirt...

                        SEX IS NORMAL

                       Sex is wonderful and normal but
                       where you draw the line at, is you
                       DO NOT use sex to victimize children
                       nor adults...
                                    You DO NOT use sex to spread
                       sexually-transmitted diseases... You DO NOT
                       use sex to get babies by anybody and everybody
                       to in turn, dump the responsibilities onto
                       someone-else or others...  Sex is normal...
                                       There's a huge difference between
                       sex with lust containing no substance and sex with
                       love containing true substance...
                                                        I love the latter
                       of the two. Yes! There is a huge difference....

                     If you say or give me the

                     way that your love is and the way that
                     you treat me-  as well as the way that
                     you come across, someone or others have

                      When you work in the system you do

                      can do to prevent injustices and crimes
                      towards people whom really need help and

DID WE REALLY LISTEN?


Admire Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
 for what he has done...
You do and I do so love the peace
that should reign,-   make a path for ourselves...
May God always bless him for his
work, his wisdom and for who he was--  We hurt
each other. Yes! I mean
 everyone...

                                                                   
Take the hands when THE LORD has come....
The times that he went to jail- 
and at times going home to his wife with his nose
knocked to one side, can anyone
forgive us? See no color and live. The horizon is
our blessed peace to be loved as
home with our sun and our rain.... May he always
have a crown and his wife shine in
 gold armor----
Embrace freedom was the idea  for all people to love one
 another...  That day in August 1963 when he spoke,  even beyond or before-

 the idea, I'm
wondering today considering how rough things are-  even disunity...
jealousy to kill us. Did we REALLY LISTEN to what he said?....

                                   PEOPLE ARE WRONG

                  Wanting to help someone whom may be down and out
                  by giving them your last dollar but, not only do they
                  want your last dollar, they'll want all the money from
                  your next four paychecks and then some...

                                   PEOPLE ARE WRONG!

                  Offering someone half of your loaf of bread to keep them
                  from being hungry but instead, they'll want the whole loaf
                  plus the bag and twist-tie that comes with it.
                  Plus, they'll have THE NERVE to ask: "Ain't you got any meat
                  and gravy to go with it?"

                                   PEOPLE ARE WRONG!

                  Sitting in the theatre with your popcorn and someone
                  that you don't even know reaches over and starts eating
                  out of your popcorn. You don't EVEN know if they've washed
                  their hands or let alone, where their hands have been.
                  Furthermore, they'll belch and won't EVEN say excuse me.
                  They'll even drink out of your pop and then look at you as
                  if to say: "What?" "What did I do?"

                                   PEOPLE ARE WRONG!

                  Let someone borrow your car and they'll bring it back
                  dirty, on empty and even sometimes wrecked without any
                  care or explanation, whatsoever.


                                    PEOPLE ARE WRONG!

                   LORD! What can you do? Help someone and they'll turn
                   around and STAB you right in the back but again,
                   what can you do? People are wrong!...

                         EITHER YOU ARE OR YOU AREN'T

                    Either you are or you aren't. Now which is
                    it? Call it extreme if you wish however, there's
                    not going to be any:

                    "Having your cake and eat it too!"

                    "I'll treat you any kind of way!" You'll take it and
                     -like it!"

                    "I'll speak to you only when I feel like it or when my
                     -other friends aren't around but, I'll call you my
                     -friend."       OR
                     " I'm getting close to you as well as speaking to you,
                      wanting your friendship as a motive to get into your
                      business and to find out things to gossip about!"

                    Though you or no one else is obligated in any way, what
                    kind of fool do you think I am??? You're not going to
                    have it both ways. Either you are or you aren't. Are you
                    keeping up chaos? Are you smiling to my face and then
                    talking about me like a dog behind my back as well as
                    spreading gossip? You're not going to use me or bring
                    me your drama either!

                    Your behavior, rumors, sabotage and gossip are based on
                    ignorance and jealousy and are no-less extreme than the
                    actions that murdered Emmett Till, The Kennedy Brothers, Dr. King,
                   
Malcolm X, Medgar Evers and Viola
                    Gregg Liuzzo
so long ago but in a
                    different form but, the pain still lasts. Overcome!
                    Middle of the road is not my cup of tea. Sit at the
                    table or get up and leave. Friendship, either you are or
                    you aren't! It's not going to be both ways! Stay or
                    drink your tea and leave...
                                               AND don't say another word!!!

        WHERE'S THE MONEY AND SUPPORT?

When a friend, family member or advesary says to you:
 "You should have children or you should have more than
one child because it's not fair to the other one child."
Some may want grandchildren but aside, ask them that if
you were to get in a financial-bind and stressed ARE
THEY THEMSELVES, NOT AGENCIES willing to reach down in
their pockets and help you?...

You weren't ready for any children at all and others are
 just thinking of themselves or they want you to be
 uncomfortable. You're comfortable now. Where's the money
and support? If you were to become overstressed by their
proposal, addition or their statements ARE THEY THEMSELVES,
willing to relieve you EVEN PERMANENTLY, by supporting
that child or children physically, emotionally and
financially?

If their answer is no or a long silent pause, then ask 

them yourself, no disrespect, why are we having this

discussion?...
 We ain't got nothin' to say. Please pause,

 go somewhere and sit down....

               HUNGRY

When I was not hungry, I gave
of myself to others but soon,
I was hungry...

Others never called or came around

I was alone...

others come for greed, I'll
 remember the days I was hungry...

                     ONE OF THE BIGGEST MISTAKES

One of the biggest mistakes that you can make
 in regards to your mate as far as love is concerned,
 is by leaving him or her wondering if whether or not
you love them...

Love, affection, concern and attention are needed
every day because, if you leave your mate to wonder
sooner or later, they're going to wander...

                                                        Take it or
leave it because sooner or later, the truth will speak for
 itself...

EYES THE SAME COLOR

 Your eyes may not be the same color being selfish and wanting to control
someone. Stereotypes, unless you're a victim and product of your own
ignorance, express love with more gold to embrace someone that may speak.
Why are you angry?
 
If someone says that they're not compatible with you, listen to them. Go
 sit down in rainbows wonder when inside, you use the fact of being the
same race as an undercover reason to try and make it work. It doesn't,
but do so if it does however, you know in heart what you feel and what
 you really want. Under the table the sweetest kiss takes the hand that
 guides you. The look of love doesn't wait and I'm not married to you.

Don't say: "I don't know what I want." or ask: "What is compatible?" If
you can say or ask these things, you've beaten yourself down because, I
don't want ignorance. Give me dreams with strength. Their hearts is love,
faith and intelligence. The way their eyes are the same color, love hold
 his hand and as he, you may now kiss the bride.

                     YOU DON'T WANT TO BE BOTHERED

A lot of time has gone by and you haven't said or done anything. For a
long-time now, I've been doing all of the trying and making an effort to
communicate and you haven't done anything or even made an effort on your
part!

You can say to me that you've tried to communicate with me and say
something however, it's clear as crystal to me that you didn't and weren't
trying hard enough! You just didn't and don't want to be bothered! For a
long-time when I've tried to communicate with you, you would either avoid
me or make excuses. You wouldn't even give me 10 or even 15 minutes of
your time. I'm not worth 10-15 minutes of your time??? You just didn't and
don't want to be bothered!

Did you EVER ONCE ask me when would be a good time to call? You have a
home-phone, a cellphone and LORD only knows how many phone-booths that you
yourself, pass along the way home or to wherever you may go. If you're
worried about germs, did you ever think of placing two clean kleenix over
the phone-receiver and then talk? You could you know!

The times that you've went out of town did you EVER make an effort or
EVEN given the thought to purchasing a phone calling-card for five or ten
dollars? A postcard? Or even a nice letter? Did you EVER ONCE ask me what
my address was? You haven't made an effort to say: "Hi!" "How are you?"
"Kiss my you know what!" or anything, but the point is you just didn't and
don't want to be bothered and I can accept that but, you're not going to
make me be nor feel like a fool either! Even if you would have pulled me
aside or called me and said: "I can only talk for 15 minutes or so."
whether it would have been in person or even meeting you somewhere, I
would have accepted that! Good or bad, I just wanted to know SOMETHING!
ANYTHING!

I would have even been willing to take a day off from work or even leave
work early to meet you for coffee. You just didn't and don't want to be
bothered! That's just the whole truth as I see it. IF I'M WRONG? PROVE ME
WRONG!!! You just don't want to be bothered and really had no intentions
on being bothered in the first place! Actions speak louder than words and
your actions for a long-time says and has said, that you didn't and don't
want to be bothered! Over the time that I've tried to communicate with
you, you've DONE NOTHING but make me feel less than nothing!!!

If you can honestly say that you've tried, let me say this. The Supremes
sang a verse in one of their songs and I quote them as saying: "Ain't no
mountain high enough, ain't no valley low enough, ain't no river wide
enough, to keep me from you!" GET THE PICTURE??? What I'm clearly saying
is that if something or someone means enough, you're going to find a way
someway, somehow to do what you have to do! The whole-truth point-blank,
plain and simple is you just didn't and don't want to be bothered! I'm
sorry. I'm just speaking the truth as my heart feels and as I see it in my
own eyes. YOU JUST DON'T WANT TO BE BOTHERED!!!

                  GENES TENDENCIES AND CHARACTERISTIC-TRAITS

Whether we want to accept it or not genes, tendencies and
characteristic-traits can and will carry for generations so therefore,
when we may ask why is it that a person or a group may act the way that
they do or why they are the way that they are lets first start by facing
the first realities and they are as follows:

1. It is very ignorant to believe or expect that everyone is going to
believe as well as think in the same ways and in the same manners. Yes!
It's still very important to maintain great morals, values, respect each
other and to love each other.

2. You may know a person or a group however, do you really know that
person's or groups family history and their background as well as the
people that they may have came in contact with? Yes! This includes
relations, associations and encounters through friendships, sexual as well
as through business.

3. Though our family, our friends and others that we may know may act and
talk a certain way around us or in front of us, do we REALLY KNOW how they
may act, talk and conduct themselves, when they are not around us or in
our sights? Furthermore, do we REALLY KNOW and can we REALLY SAY what a
group or what each individuals tendencies and their characteristic-traits
really are? We cannot see what goes on inside of someones mind nor predict
their feelings of what they may be feeling on the inside. This ALL applies
to ourselves, our parents, our grandparents, family and all of our friends
and our ancestors.

Yes! Behaviors are taught in good as well as in bad and are also
influenced by surroundings, people and by what have you however, do not
forget that genes, tendencies and characteristic-traits can and will carry
for generations. For many years, many people have openly as well as
sneaked around to have relations with others, including people that were
outside of their own races. Children have evolved as a result in many
cases, bearing the genes, the tendencies, the behavior patterns as well as
the characteristic-traits of both parents so therefore, that
child/children is going to pass along their genes, their tendencies and
their characteristic-traits to their children and so on. If the
child/children are biracial or multicultural they could choose any side or
anyone as a mate because, you have to remember that child/children has the
genes, the tendencies and the characteristic-traits of both of his/her
original parents, families and ancestors.

Whether it may be the current day or from our families, our friends or
from past ancestors genes, tendencies and characteristic-traits can and
will carry for generations, regardless. This also hold true for looks and
physical features as well. Once that a seed or seeds have been planted the
songs have already been sang and are being sung for the present time, the
past and on into the future, forever. YOU CAN'T WASH IT OUT because, it's
going to show-up somewhere, somehow even if it's not until generations
later. The seeds are here to stay.

I CAN'T AND I WON'T

I love you very much, I think that you are very attractive and that you
are a wonderful human-being however, I can't and I won't marry you...

Something that you've said and have been saying for quite a long-time has
REALLY made me think and believe that you would never be totally satisfied
with just me. It's been haunting me, forever...

What that means is that I do not at any time, want my heart to be broken
nor shattered. This way, if we're not married it won't hurt as bad...

You've said and have been saying for quite some time about how a
movie-star and others have you up on cloud 9, so to speak and if they or
either one of them were to ever come along that you would leave me,
regardless.
Secrets that you whisper...
                           So this tells me that if and when your fantasy,
fantasies or even someone near or equivalent to
them were to come along, that you're going to
leave me, just like that...

You've asked me about what are the chances of that movie-star, near or
equivalent coming along however, one of the realities of life is, is that
you NEVER know whom that you're going to see or meet from one moment to
the next, right? It's the truth! Still yet, though not in so many words,
you're telling me and have told me that I'm just a temporary solution
until what you REALLY want, near or equivalent comes along so therefore, I
can't and I won't marry you...

I want to make it clear that I'm not trying to poses nor control you or
your mind. Baby! I'm not insecure, either. I love you, I respect you and
I'll do anything in the universe for you even, if it were to mean that I
were to go without as well as sacrifice much deeper, just so that I can
see you smile and that you're happy. So taking in view of this along with
what you've said and have been saying, I have every reason to be concerned
about my heart, us and what our future would really be like together, so
until something changes and time proves it, I just can't and I won't marry
you...
        Again! I love you very much however, I'm not going to sign my name
forever on a heart that I'm not sure of.
