Communication is KEY in the RELATIONSHIP

Sometimes the person you THINK you LOVE isn’t the person you need to be WITH. You guys can have tons of fun, talk about anything, hold each other down, but if you’re always arguing about everything and NO ONE is willing to be the BIGGER person it’s a waste of TIME for the BOTH of you. Honesty, Respect, Love and Loyalty are needed but so is COMMUNICTATION. You can have all of these traits but without communication you have NOTHING. When communication isn’t there it’s HARDER to get PAST disagreements and communicate how one is feeling. Sometimes one partner’s feelings can be misinterpreted and taken in the wrong manner. This can then result in more problems. Also, if you have two partners who never believe their wrong, or two “know it all’s” this can be a problem for the relationship. Sometimes it’s best to just stay to yourself and be friends or cordial. After a certain period of time it can become annoying and lead to feelings being hurt, lack of trust and MAKE IT even harder for the individuals to attach to another person later on in life. If you see signs of arguments every other day or little annoying you it means that it’s TIME to let it go. Things will only get worst so why not END before you get too DEEP.

Music blog!

There used to be times that I thought the type of music you listened to defined you as a person. Now that I have grown up I realize that this is not the case. I believe that you should listen to any type of music that you CONNECT with and put you in the mood you are seeking to be in. Let's be honest all music is structured differently even down to the genres in which it is categorized in. In today's society we are so SOCIALIZED into believing that because we are of a certain ethnicity that we should listen to certain music, which isn't the case. As for me I am opened to listening to all genres of music. As long as I love the beat and the message the artist is trying to convey via the lyrics. I love music because it allows me to escape from reality and drift into a peaceful mindset away from all BULLSHIT. Music is therapy for me and stops me from saying things that can hurt individual’s feelings and or from becoming a MONSTER in others eyes. I call it being honest and not SUGAR COATED anything.

For the BOY whom I wish was a MAN: Fathers

            Growing up I was raised by a teenager, who became an ADULT, and MOTHER when she was left to take care a child on her own. Even though life got HARD she never gave up on her dreams and her child. After watching the sacrifices my Mother made I told myself I would never make her disappointed to show that I was GRATEFUL for the LIFE sacrifices she made for me to live the life I LIVE. I can say I did make her disappointed from time to time, but not to the point I STRESSED her at night. I stayed in school, made honor roll, graduated on time, went to college, stayed out of trouble and did everything I was told.

            She taught me everything she could about Men and how to carry myself like a woman, but there was still that VOID that a FATHER had to FILL. There are a few things I learned about MEN based off of experiences that a FATHER can ONLY teach. I thank GOD every day that I was born INTELLIGENT with the SOUL OLDER than my AGE that allowed me to learn QUICKER instead of getting caught up a situation where I would regret like MAJORITY of the women I know of. No shade. The statement of children not having great relationships with their parents affects their personal LOVE RELATIONSHIPS is really true. I’m a prime example. Due to my Father not showing his LOYALTY has affected the way I’ve dealt with my relationships in the past, and my thoughts of MEN. Indeed, every man is not a PIECE of shit, but my mentality was if my father wasn’t LOYAL why would believe the man I was dating would be LOYAL.

            At the end of the day this has severed ties with each relationship I had. Most women, whom fathers were in and out of jail and deadbeats, would never admit this but these are the signs of acceptance and maturing. I learned I have to stop blaming EVERY MAN for MY FATHER NOT being a MAN. In life when someone who is CLOSE to your HEART does you WRONG repetitively after chances and chance. When you meet new people, who resemble them in characteristics can result in you displacing your anger upon them which is NOT FAIR to them or you. At the end of the day you can be ruining a GOOD thing that GOD sent to you when you desperately PRAYED for it. But when you’re BLIND by PAIN its HARDED to recognize a GOOD THING when it’s sitting in your face.

            After 24 years on this earth I have recognized this and have accepted it TODAY and it’s time to make a few changes so I can break this cycle. If I don’t I will end up alone or end up being a PIECE of shit like my FATHER with multiple MEN lingering on me, broken hearted whom will HATE me in the long run. When you feel a way towards someone your actions began to resemble theirs without actually paying close attention. From this day on I’ve finally FORGIVEN him and accepted him for who he is. Now it’s time for me to take the time focus on who I’m with and showing APPRECIATION for him being here and accepting me for who I am flaws and all.

The BIKER INCIDENT! 10-2-2013! ROAD BULLYING, WHO TO BLAME?

On Wednesday, October 2nd 2013, a group of motorcyclists were riding on the highway as seen in the video located below in New York and a horrific incident occurred. Allen Edwards, 42 year old biker was the biker, who slows down in the front of the SUV causing a fender binder that caused the bikers to become angry and violent. The bikers all come to a stop including the driver and began to approach the SUV with the driver, his wife and child in the car making threats, hitting the window while simultaneously slicing the tires. The driver states in another interview that his battery was dying. I’m not too sure how true this is but that's another piece of information that was released a few days ago.

Once the driver realized the bikers were going to literally brutally beat him up for accidentally hitting the biker he did what any human who was in danger would have done. That was to drive and get the HELL OUT OF THERE. While the driver of the SUV tried to save his life along with his family’s’ life he accidentally hit another biker who is now paralyzed from the waist down, spine was snapped in two different places with no hope of recovery. “Charges against motorcyclist Allen Edwards were dropped. The 42-year-old biker had originally faced charges of reckless endangerment, criminal mischief and menacing”, the New York City Police Department said.

            In my opinion I feel as though this could have been avoided had the bikers just continued riding and not try to torment those on the road. Sometimes motorcyclists take over the road and forget to be mindful of motor drivers and that it may be hard for us to see them when their dipping from lane to lane in our “BLIND VIEW”. By the biker slowing down  in front of the SUV driver knowing that there was no traffic and he could sped up and got out of the way this could have been avoided and no one would’ve have been hurt including his friend who is now paralyzed for the rest of his life. I think he should go to jail because he scared and ruined lives at the end of the day.

CHECK OUT THE VIDEO!

Leave comments below and let me know what you feel about this situation? Do you think he caused the incident? Do you believe his friend should be upset with changing his life forever? Is there anything the driver could have done to avoid this situation?

WORDS should MATCH your ACTIONS

Lately, I’ve been trying to tone down on my anger, aggression and attitude, but it seems like people like it when I’m angry, aggressive and have an attitude. I’ve never met people who can tell you about what they DON’T LIKE about you then turn around and act the same way. This pisses me off, because if you’re telling me I shouldn’t be a certain way and you turn around and act the same way this makes me feel like I’m surrounded by a HYPOCRITE. You can’t call someone OUT on something and don’t take your OWN ADVICE.  The individuals I have around me are people I CARE about, LOVE and would do ANYTHING I could for them. These individuals are people I want to tell me the TRUTH about MYSELF, Actions or things in general. I am NOT PERFECT and NO MAN OR WOMAN is, but at least be mindful of what you say and how you treat people.

Cherish your LOVED ones while their here

   I know it may sounds cliché to say that you should CHERISH those in your life while they’re here but this statement is true. As humans we live our lives believing that GOD only takes the OLD, but in reality he takes who he feels has served their purpose to the best of their ability. I am a firm believer that we're all here on a mission and once that mission is completed were taken back HOME. We tend to forget that we are just spirits occupying bodies that are only passing thru this place called EARTH. Our souls will LIVE ON FOREVER, but our physical bodies will NOT. DEATH doesn't affect US until it HITS HOME. I say this because living in BOSTON where there are a high number of homicides and accidents when a person was murdered or passes and it wasn't someone I knew I would feel sympathy but be HAPPY that it wasn't a person I was closed to.

Until, I faced about 3 deaths in the midst of a year and half of individuals who were close to me. Starting 7/4/11 when my Best friend's 17year old brother, who shares the same Birthday as me 12/21 was shot and killed. This death put me in a deep depression, where I wasn't eating, barely speaking, crying all the time and just angry. The last images I had of him were tubes in his mouth on the operating table and a white sheet over him; an image that will never leave my mind. This hurt me because I helped with raising him and just making sure he stayed on the right track. When a young person dies it hurts more because you feel as though their lives were cut short. This hurt me so much and continues to hurt me but it’s going on 3 years in 2014 and I know GOD has him and each chance he gets he sends me weird signs that he’s good. As long as his GOOD I'm good and I have to continue living my life.

The next death was my Grandmother who passed away from a heart attack in the bathroom of her home on June 20th 2012. This was a surprise to everyone in my family, because she was healthy and independent and could get around on her own with no assistance. This hurt me but I felt a little better because she was old, and it was a natural cause in a sense. I knew she was going to go one day, but it hurt that it was so soon. Since I could remember my grandmother was an older strong woman whom I thought would live until she was about 100 years old. This made me feel like GOD was punishing me by taking her away, because I loved my Grandmother like she gave me life. I knew that GOD needed her more than her 17 children, countless grandchildren and great grandchildren did. She paved the way and did everything she could do. I guess it was time for her to depart this earth.  

The last death was when my Friend, a guy I considered my brother was murdered and stabbed to death on August 15th, 2012. This put a hold on my heart, because he was a great dude, always made sure everyone smiled and laughed, always down to party with me and have a good time. It hurt me to see someone go at the hands of someone who was not mentally stable and was off their medication. This death made me feel that GOD was punishing me because it was like as soon as I was trying to MOURN one DEATH another was occurring. Until this day I have not fully mourned but I have accepted the fact that GOD has them in a better place and their missions were complete. Just glad I had the chance to have them in my life. Now, I have to love and remember them, but also love and cherish the individuals GOD left physically in my life. You never know when your CLOCK MAY STOP TICKING.
