Ten Rules for Being Human

1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period.

2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life."

3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work."

4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.

5. Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.

6. "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."

7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.

8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.

9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.

10. You will forget all this.

When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won..... - Mahatma Gandhi

My grandfather used to sit me on his knee when I was a child and impart his words of wisdom. Here is one of many: "The road to success is not straight. There is a curve called Failure, a loop called Confusion, speed bumps called Friends, red lights called Enemies, caution lights called Family. You will have flats called Jobs. But, if you have a spare called Determination, an engine called Perseverance, insurance called Faith, a driver called Jesus you will make it to a place called Success!! He also told me to: Never label yourself, nor allow others to label you, as it limits who you are and what you can be... So I pass these on, to my friends here at BP with the hope they will provide you with inspiration in all your endeavors. Meanwhile, come in, take a seat, let your guard down, relax, let's chat and get to know each other. You just might find we have a lot in common.

 Ladies, don't be shy. I don't bite but I might nibble a little lol. All I ask is that "REAL WOMEN" women approach, those who don't live in the fairy tale world of a fantasy man. See, I've noted many women here at BP want a 6ft, 250 pound, tall, dark and handsome man. That's living the dream that the West (AMERICA) has sold you. Meanwhile you are alone...maybe not lonely but alone. If you seek a real man, measure him by who and what he is on the inside, not by superficial traits. You say you're grown but you still think like a little girl. This can also be said about the men. REAL MEN seek to explore a woman's inner essence, that place she keeps guarded and hidden from all. A Real Man will seek that connection with a woman. As my grandmother told me: She fell in love with my grandfather not because of looks, money or color but because of the way he made her feel deep inside---he touched her in places no man ever did or dared to go.

 

 A little about me...

Waiting for the right woman to find me...Dr. Maya Angelou said: I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, lifedoes go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life. I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life." I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made you feel

What am I looking for in a partner?

Seeking an explorer....somone who does not hold back and has a spirit of adventure.....I want emotional closeness.I want sharing. I want a beautiful bridge between us that is always there, always open, always secure, always ours alone. I want communication. I want words that speak our language. I want touches that say more than words can mean. I want to be more in touch with you than any man ever has. I want strength,I want as much happiness as tomorrow can promise to anyone. I want to be home to you. I want you to be home to me. And I want the smile that is in my heart to always reflect so beautifully in the eyes I most love to see. Will I find the one who is searching for me? I'd just like to add... Let's see what life has to offer...

WANTED: SOMEONE TO LOVE

From afar or just from around,

For she might also be in the heavens above,..

Or here on the ground, Or at the end of the rainbow ...

Or maybe from beyond.

But just the same Someone, I`ll keep waiting for you,

And when you`re already here, I`ll forever love you,

Hand in hand we`ll face

Whatever comes every tomorrow,

No matter it be Happiness, pain or sorrow.

What is your definition of a "STRONG BLACK WOMAN?"

Posted

As per the above title: I read, hear and listen to many individuals, both male and female and am still perplexed as to what defines a "strong Black woman." Personally I feel the term is corrupted/contrived. While I do have my own definition, I would rather hear from others as to what the term means to them. In the interim, I have taken the liberty to display such a concept as seen on another members page who goes by the name of petitedymon-3 who is a real sweetheart, and NO I am not...

My Pet Peeves

Posted

I have a pet peeve when it comes to our people, more specifically, Black women. I've been meaning to write this for sometime as it seems it does not matter the age bracket, the majority of Black women have an issue with who they are....."Black!" No matter where I look, whose profile I check out, it all amounts to the same.....Black women suffer from an identity crisis, be they young or old. Everywhere I look, you can be certain the majority of female members here at BP always... (continue reading)

Unimaginable Tragedies?

Posted

PLEASE NOTE: This is not an orginal article by me hence, in the interim I have written the author for permission to post this in my blog as I feel it is of utmost importance. I don't want people to be blind sided by these so called "Unimaginable Tragedies" so much so as I want people to take a look at the state of siege minorities are under. I call it cause and effect-----Brutality by those who are dispatched to serve and protect when effect they are self serving causes an opposing... (continue reading)

WHEN "LUV" COMES TO TOWN -- WHEN INTERNET "LUV" COMES TO TOWN - VULNERABLE PEOPLE WHO NEED PEOPLE

We've come to realize that this whole "love" scamming business on the internet is being studied and schemed by agents of the elite thugs. One category is the "player" and the "target". "Players" are predators of other human beings. They operate from their own unwritten "con manual" on how to carefully "profile"... (continue reading)

My Intent

NOTE: The below speech was written by me with the intent to make a public announcement regarding my intention to run for Congress. I posted this here as a sort of poll to determine if what I have to say appeals to and inspires the masses. Your opinions both positive and negative are greatly appreciated, as I will use your comments to gauge my opportunity as a viable candidate. So do drop me a note with your thoughts. Also, if anyone were interested, I would gladly... (continue reading)
