Master the art of the unapologetic "No"

Take my advice:

The world is much bigger than your neighborhood in America.

Go explore it.

This is a young boy in Cuba.

The boy is riding a scooter made by someone in his family.

Each time this child rides his scooter and has fun, true pride is experienced by that father or family member.

TRUE PRIDE wrought from the hands, planning, preparation and execution of a work product.

He did that and this child couldn’t be more pleased.

We are going to go backward to go forward and I hope mine are ready.

Inevitability

I'm a "Strong black man who don't need no woman". See how stupid that shit sounds!?

Lemonade sun

The sound of lips smackin
Our lips smackin
Feelin our souls connected
Our souls….
Our hands intwine
They intwine
Our bodies tangle up
We tangle up….
All under a lemonade sun….

We fool around
Havin heavy make out sessions
Then turn into the rest of
Steamy hot lovemakin
In full speed moans and groans
Intoxicated breathin
All under a lemonade sun

We’re naked
All under a lemonade sun….

All under a lemonade sun
All under a lemonade sun…
A lot of lovin
All under a lemonade sun

Let it be warm
Let it shine on us
Let it be there when we make love….

If I’m a woman in a
Wheelchair
That goes missin
My mama will find
Me
Everybody in my family
Will have a search party….

But this scenario will
Never Happen
At all….

I won’t wander off
Somewhere
At night or day
Alone

Especially I’m black
I’m a woman
I have a disability

Where am I goin?

I won’t fake my disappearance
I won’t joke about kidnappin

Cos
People go missin
All the time…
And we keep lookin for any shadow
In sight….

My shadow is safe
I’m here breathin

It’s not funny
Danger is not
Laughin matter…
I don’t wanna go
Missin
And worry my loved ones too death

This is why
Conversations come up
Frequently
About stayin with
The group
And don’t talk to
Strangers…

Cos we don’t know
Of their good intentions….

I have been listening to those stories about people going missing…it’s never a good thing. Please safe and observe your surroundings. There are bad people in this world.
