Now, to some, that might come off as me being "fake" or not all the way "real" (which, by the way, gets on my ever loving last nerve, i thought we were done with the era of "keeping it real"). But who cares. I'm forever and always me. Unapologetic, I am me. Every quirk, idiosyncrasy, mannerism, eccentricity and characteristic of me is genuine.
So let's see whats going on in my head...well, the things I'll let you in on:
1. Love-Love is the single, strongest feeling anyone could feel. There are not different types of love, just different types of relationships. (you love your kids, parents, s/o, friends, but it all is love) Love isn't always reciprocated, unfortunately. But still isn't diminished when it isn't returned. In order for it to be love, it has to be real. No such thing as fake love, or a little love. It's just love. If you try to diminish it then it's just emotion. If you are not willing to sacrifice yourself if you have to for the one you say you love, then it's not love. Being in love is just a description of a commitment to a person. You have to be careful when using that terminology. You could damage someone if you are not truly in love with them but you say that you are. There's nothing wrong with telling someone i love you, if you mean it. But to say that you are in love with someone signifies a soul/spirit connection that isn't easily broken. If it doesn't work and tears apart, it rips the very fiber of a person and is painful. Love doesn't hurt, people do. Love doesn't lie, people do. i like how my dude put love...
2. Religion-church folk are too up tight....HEY, I just had an epiphany. I keep confusing "church folk" with "saved folk". There is such a difference. Ok, that explains the up-tightness! Everybody who goes to church isn't saved. I mean there are folk that go religiously (pun intended) but don't know Jesus from a hill of beans. And they are UPTIGHT. Sit around and call everyone out on their mess sans prayer, encouragement, and most of all LOVE (see #1). Religion is MAN MADE (religion - a specific fundamental set of beliefs and practices generally agreed upon by a number of persons or sects: the Christian religion; the Buddhist religion. ). And that my friends is the problem. Now, there is such a thing as true religion, and having a set of beliefs that people agree on is not wrong at all. But is it guided by God or the fallible human mind? The Bible says: "If you think you are being religious, but can't control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and everything you do is useless. Religion that pleases God the Father must be pure and spotless. You must help needy orphans and widows and not let this world make you evil." James 1:26-27 (Contemporary English Version) Oh My Jesus...that's deep. *lookin down to see if i stepped on any toes, including mine*
3. Career/school - very simple...I have a vision...need to enact it...pray for me. I'm spozed 2 b rich!!!!!! I have a friend who inspired me recently. Just her determination and the actions she is taking made me wake up and go "what are you doing AQUON???? you ain't doin nuffin, get on the ball!!!" Thank you my sweet friend!
4. BFF-smh....omg....i #lovehateher (lol @kennyknight). Me & her go back since like 1995. My cuz tried to "hook us up" but like immediately we were destined to be best friends. Been through a lot with her. Several times I have wanted to harm her a la some crazy WWE finishing move like this:
...But I haven't....yet....maybe 2010 will give me the opportunity. My BFF is funny, loving, kind, sweet, and has a severe terminal case of road rage. I hope her goatee grows completely in, and she'll let me shape it up for her.5. Speaking of shape-ups - I want these:
That's all for now...until next time...peace!
