greetings tenzintenzin

just got ur lines of communication .preciate it. thanks 4 who or whatever led u 2 my recent post. thanks for introducing me 2 words liks "gravitas" n "bollocks"

so TMZ is a crock we both agree . used 2 watch it when i was lost in the sauce n lost in translation , did it just 2 lust after women n 2 see black/multicultural women as the prison i was in had no black/multicultural women or staff 4 the most part. yup that was me in my mess.

TMZ tends 2 stay on in this youth prison thats obsessed with celebrity gossip/they financial affairs/love life etc. just yesterday was an argument bout who got the most $ between several celebs.could care less tryin 2 get my own $ 2 leave 2 my daughter

at this point in life kanye n other celebs seemed 2 do stuff/say stuff 4 the publicity. like gina rodriguez rappin the n-word - postin it- then apologizin 4 it. i bet she still listens 2 n sings along 2 music featurin the n-word, sometimes its like "what made this person say this in the 1st place? meanwhile its trendy 2 say somethin "insensive" then have a pres conference apologizing dont 4get the 1hr of sensitivity trainin!

yes 90% of tv designed 2 keep america stupid

well we only get 15 minutes on kiosk
see u part 2

part 2
so i get it now...tv /entertainment all bout keeping me dumbed down n not focus ed on more important thing. dont get me wrong i watch some sports /shows 2 unwind/relax but i NEVER lose sight of my ultimate goals. 4 example 2day i crocheted a scarf while i had the badger game on. when i knew they were gonnna lose i turned 2 another more educational show 1 i sen b4. BOSS;THE BLACK EXPERIENCE IN BUSINESS

as the show talked 2 think it was earl graves jr bout racism n overcomin a quote idea came 2 me

RACISM ONLY CARES ABOUT U WHEN U CARE ABOUT IT
this applys 2 the fashion designer racist rant. maybe she does employ blacks maybee some quit, maybe some chose 2 stay n show her the love of christ :) n or the love she's never experienced from a black man/woman, maybe somebody gone ask, "seein u feel that way yu hire me in the first place?" maybe she gone say "i was drunk!"
lol

well i understand the what ifs
deal with that on a daily basis
one black person work here!
still i dont focus on if the nurses,co's, social worker ,teachers, volunteers, staff,etc r racist or not. could care less
I AM GOIN SOMEWHERE
I AM GOIN 2 ACCOMPLISH MY GOALS
I AM GOIN SOMEWHERE
watch me

part 3 soon...

part 3...

so if n when i encounter racism or neother "ism" i just go 2 god in prayer askin 4 the strength n courage 2 walk in love n show kindness. somtimes offering a listening ear or helpful advice can go a long way in helping someone heal from being prejudice; a quote comes 2 mind WISDOM IS BETTER THAN WEAPONS OF WAR
i've experienced this when a racist told me, "ur not like all the other black guys" (ie the black who rejected him when he grew up in new york n those in prison who picked on him etc.)

thanks for the iyanla vanzant quote she's a wise woman. have it in my heart 2 read some of her books mainly PEACE FROM BROKEN PIECES
what ive learned in life is -PEOPLE ONLY SHOW U WHAT THEY WANT U 2 SEE.IT'S ON U 2 SEE THE REST
its all good,im guilty of it
think of the datin process
nobody reveals their flaws till they confident enuff that u love enuff 2 not leave upon bein notified of they bad habits,pet peeves, diseases, etc
who tells a woman out the gate" u pretty n u should know i bite my finger nails anemic,baldin,h8 when people smack when they eat i got halotosis :)..."

no we dont get 2 watch youtube clips
or have ne internet access

far as the headphones kids is just loud so they sing out loud with the headphones on
