i have been silent on-line for a little more than a week.
these days, when i am cautioned to be still...i know to listen;)
when folks say age is just a number, they either don't know (old foo? momma said, there was nothing worse.) or... they lie.
lol. after reading that we should not call others fools, my son dropped the 'l' back in the day. the above spelling is not a typo. lol!
age is working just swell for me. with it, i AM finding wisdom, patience, increased faith, and understanding. despite all the arrested development worship, i would not go back...if i could. if one thinks about it, there is no real consideration for youth nor innocence. look and see the nonstop assaults on youth/innocence+ humanity in general and believe the lie of any type of 'worship', if that is your choice. folks are being programmed + trained to worship arrested development and other idols. nevertheless, free will is His gift to us all. i revere Him and respect His Will+ gift/reflection in others. trust + truly. it is all Love folks.
after taking a peek over at the FN plantation to see what folks are saying in response to the latest msm pack of lies offering- folks that never stop reminding others how 'educated', 'scholarly', and 'successful' they are- i realized that there was no need for me to devote much new energy. there is nothing new...we are simply in the next leg of the journey.
i have finally made peace with the notion that some folks just may never get it...despite all the neon lights, symbols, clues, and signs. though i pray daily that Almighty will prick these folks in the heart and compel them to Him.
Queen Cynthia McKinney uses her gift to speak Truth to power. her letting rumsfeld and co. have it, still tickles me. in doing so...she and many others encourage me to stand and speak. to say what i need to say.
i feel my ancestors and know that i stand on their shoulders daily. their blood, sweat, tears, and suffering, i do not take for granted.
i AM eternally grateful that He gifts me with understanding.
looking back through the books Momma gave me over the years...she always wrote a prayer that i may stand in the light of understanding. in fact, it was Momma, come to think of it- who told me that i should get understanding with all my getting, from the cradle to the grave. then i read it written in Scriptures later...
Cynthia McKinney was on my mind tonight after my brief plantation visit. all parties are restless in their different way really. i AM most interested to see the progression of discussions for foreign troops to occupy US in order to disarm US. apparently folks are clear that American sons might have cause to pause when it is time to implement certain plans. that's another post altogether. back to Cynthia McKinney...

nothing new to add really. an update to where we are for now...the lenders are throwing families out of their homes. if you are Black or Hispanic, you may have the pleasure of a swat team tossing your family. because losing one's home is not traumatic enough. add some police state training to the whole mix to keep things interesting, i suppose. the enemy has been given time to make war against the saints...and overpower. i pray that more awake and use their gifts to reach others...while there appears to still be time to do so.

folks are coming for BW's spiritual jugular. it is ok...it is all written. there is nothing new, anywhere, really.
in many respects...it feels as if i AM doubling back with wake up salts. for some of us throughout history, it is never enough to have freedom for ourselves alone. helping others is where it is at for me. this is why i have always related so closely to Harriet Tubman.
when i drew my line and seized my freedom... this is my truth today, when the shackles are no longer physical. today's shackles are mental + spiritual. many many many...from all walks of life...wear them, daily.quick side note: cancer- another enemy favorite- is a dis ease of the mind, body and spirit. let that marinate then look around. the zombie movies don't seem that far fetched this way, huh?
as it relates to Queen Harriet Tubman, to see russell simmons and other enslaved/ensnared souls show such utter disrespect...it is to be expected + ignored. they have made their deals and have their happy meal toys + trinkets...truly i would not want to be them. though, i thank them for letting me know that when i truly decided to Stand Strong...their perverse flip out resonated as a panicked taking of notice. lol. yep, keep moving with focused purpose as He leads me.
gotta degrade and dehumanize sexually! that's the one constant the enemy has employed in the full frontal assault/spiritual attack that has been waged against my ancestors and me to this day.
know and obey Almighty. check. doing my very best...while failing daily on some level. plenty thankful for Messiah + Grace;)
know yourself. check.
your your enemy. check.
let's go!
perverse devils are defeated in His Name.
in many ways this image grabbed my attention...
am i making things up to recall Harriet Tubman whacking folks on the head with her pistol if they could not get with the program? lol. clogging up the works, making it hard + dangerous for the committed to freedom folk...WHACK! LET'S GO!!! lol! none of that in my journey. no pistol whipping nor will bending.
i AM coming prepared with the message of Peace, bearing Good News. happy slaves+ happily ensnared folks that can't dig it...will see me shake dust and keep it moving. (some souls are in complete bondage. slaves. on assignment to lure others into their happy/unhappy space. others are caught in a trap/snare. having so much 'fun'...they can't stop and reflect...just yet.) i learn from everyone, so no shutting folks down nor out. i just don't argue, fuss and fight so readily these days. Momma said to choose my battles. after she passed...that nugget really made sense to me;) accepting no wooden nickels makes perfect sense now, too. lol. go figure.
watch as well as pray...all day...

You are upholding Assata Shakur's words thank you!
"Like most poor people in the United States, I have no voice. The Black press and the progressive media, as well as Black civil rights organizations, have historically played an essential role in the struggle for social justice. We should continue and expand that tradition. We should create media outlets that help to educate our people and our children, and not annihilate their minds. I am only one woman. I own no TV stations or radio stations or newspapers. But I believe that people need to be educated as to what is going on and to understand the connection between the news media and the instruments of repression in America. All I have are my voice, my spirit and the will to tell the truth. But I sincerely ask those of you in the Black media, those of you in the progressive media and those of you who believe in truth and freedom to publish my story.' - Assata Shakur
