Health

Hi Everyone,

          Okay so I want to do a quick post about Health. Especially for our so called "minorities". They say that we are in the red zone for having High Blood Pressure, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Cancer and everything else they name. I don't want to see my people get these thing let alone die from these things. So I believe that its best to try to eat something healthy. 

          Hate to say this but we, as a people, need to cut down on the meat. This is the root of our problems. It lies in the meat. They pump lots of artificial chemicals in the meat and add meat glue to peace the meat together and steroids to make the meat bigger. When you eat meat you are also consuming the hormones of that animal. Hence fear when they go into the slaughter house. Now, there has just been a passing of a bill that allows America to receive meat from other places overseas. So now we don't really know where the meat is coming from. I don't know if you guys have seen the movie "Contagion" but it was talking about a wide spread epidemic that started in Hong Kong and made it to America. Just telling you guys what the movie is about. No offence to Hong Kong. So we could be consuming rats and not know it because our meat is coming from an unknown source and plus they clone the meat. 

               America is embarrassed to say that they are running out of resources but they are. This is off topic but if you go in a grocery store to get apple juice notice that they say that the concentrate comes from either Peru or China. America is literally out of resources. Okay, back to the subject:

         I know that this can be really hard but of the hard times that we are facing but try to invest in some fruit or vegetables. This would be a more healthier choice towards your diet. There are a lot of vitamins and minerals in fruits and vegetables and its actually a myth when they say that there isn't much proteins. 

           Because they bleach the white bread its best to get wheat. One hundred percent whole wheat is good to. My personal choice is Honey Wheat. Wheat is a better choice because you don't have to worry about extra chemicals in the bread as they do in white bread and plus it has fiber. 

        Good ol' fashioned water also helps maintain the minerals that you need. Not only it helps with skin but it also helps with keeping ourselves right on the inside. Our body is roughly 95% water. So its good to add water within our diet to help cleanse those toxins and unwanted chemicals that seem to be in our way. 

         Working out. Yep, its as essential as keeping a healthy diet. Try exercising twice or three times a week. This well not only help keep the weight off but it can also keep your metabolism going and keep you from seeing the doctor almost once every two weeks. No one likes going to the doctor. Also maintaining a healthy diet and exercise will keep you from taking pills and help avoid all the things that we are at a high risk for. 

God Bless.

Art

Hey Everyone,


           One thing I am beginning to notice that there isn't much art out there. Where are all of our talented artists go.

         We need to introduce our children into art. There are so much out there than sports and reality tv shows. Yeah it may not be as appealing as the latest video game or the new iPhone. But it is apart of our culture as well. If we introduce them to this early than it would be easier for acceptance. Like I said before, we have a very rich culture and we should be proud of it. 

         We have lots of things that I feel has died out even Graffiti: 

           So much has left us. I say to all of our talented artists out there, keep representing for us because we need more of it. 

God Bless.

All One

Hi Everybody,


       I wanted to talk about how we are One. It's true. We are. No just us doing what we do best but for our communities and nature that surrounds us everyday. We have to be aware of our surroundings because our ecosystem is what helps us stay alive.

        See we look at our fellow countries like we don't have anything to do with them. So when a natural disaster happens, we look around and say, " Well that's over there" or "what does that have to do with me or us". It has a lot to do with us. What effects one area effects all areas. We have to be conscious about this. That way we can be proactive when things happen. Not just with natural disasters but also with crime rates and our communities as well. 

       See as "minorities", we live mostly in the suburbs, urban and rural areas. Its already hard for us to live in standard living so look what happens when a natural disaster happens:

Hurricane Katrina

Haiti Earthquake

Super Typhoon Haiyan

Ebola Outbreak in Africa

        All of these places have been effected but because it didn't happen in our current location, we are most likely to ignore it. Why is that? I never could fully understand the logic in that. They are our people too. They live and have families and work hard to survive like we are. Everyday there is a struggle and we are very strong people to go through the things that we been through and still strive. All of this by the Grace of God. We are strong people when we stand alone but we are even stronger if we stand together. So why don't we come together and treat each other like family. 

God Bless.

Natural

Hi Everybody,

     This post is about going natural. I am so proud of my brothers and sisters out there going natural. This means going back to your roots of who you really are and connecting with God within you. This is a huge transition and it means more than transitioning your hair to a more natural state is about going back to your roots. The Hebrew Roots.

       Natural is more than just losing the make up and the weave and the fancy clothes. Its about going inside your self and feeling good about yourself for you and no body else.

       See you are connecting with God. We are the true people and we should be able to love each other and ourselves for what God has made us to be. We are made in his image and it wouldn't hurt to go natural and do what feels good for our spirits. Whether it be reading the bible, doing daily meditation, yoga or even taichi. 

     When you go natural it doesn't just mean losing the society image, it also means getting out of the matrix and being who you truly are inside. No matter what the cost. There will be others that choose to stay in the societal terms and that's fine. Going Natural is a personal choice. We have the free will to make our own decisions. However, I believe that if you go Natural your are connected with the Spirit of God and you are more in tuned with the universe that is around you. Remember Samson? 

        So going Natural is way deeper than hair, skin, nails, and body. It's about connecting to God. Connecting to the Universe. God is the Universe. So lets all keep this in mind as your transition from the society towards going to a more natural state of mind. 

God Bless.

     

Lifting Each Other Up

Hi everybody,

    I know its been awhile since I written a post. This one is about lifting each other up. We should lift each other up. As I grew up I notice that people of color are having a hard time congratulating people or just being happy about d someone else's well being. I just don't get it. In the so-called minority communities I have noticed that no one is supporting one another. This is very dominant in the black community.

     I did a previous blog about status. See this world goes by status. What do you have? How much money do you have? This is nonsense. We need to be more supportive of each other. We have to be. We see the Caucasian race excelling in the matrix and we want to be just like them or excel like them. We do not have to be just like them to make it.

    We need to first start supporting our own people by supporting our own businesses. We see the Asian communities and Latino communities do this we need to support our own no matter what.

      Secondly, as stated in a previous blog, support our children. Whatever they want to do let's support and not compare them to there brothers or sister or cousins. This kills trust quick with kids. This is a crucial time for them. Many still don't know what they want to do in life, just continue to be supportive and don't suggest any high paying jobs. Teenagers these days don't want to here it.

     Lastly, be proud of your cultural background. God gave us beautiful culture from all over the world. We must be proud of having such a rich culture and stop trying to change it to please the Caucasian race. Nobody cares what they think. Just know that our culture is rich and go out there and own it.

      Four hundred years we didn't have anything, we must be able to see past our scars and know that we are beautiful. We have to lift each other up. Support each other help each other strive because nobody else is going to help us out.

God Bless.
