Why Are You Concerned About Black America:
Black America is falling apart at the roots. More teens are getting pregnant, and more parents are walking out. Ive been there done that. I know what its like to grow up in Northern USA and not have racism come at you like a bullet to your face, but more like a stab in your back. I will NOT let that hold me back. I know my truth, and potential and will continue to speak life to my and others situations with god by my side.

Umm, well all the Cal States have their own unique "personalities" so it just depends on what type of atmosphere you are looking for. Cal State LA is a commuter college. If you want to know everyone you will be graduating with in your course of study then it is a great school. I love all my professors. But I also went to SDSU and it a pary school. It is very big but if you like a wild atmosphere then it is for you...what school were you thinking about?

Again, I really don't want nothing from you. You are open to your opinions just like me. I think you are looking too much into this.

P.S. When you do finally find that website. Let me know. Until then. Happy finding.
Tagged by Jessica Dillon on 07/31/2008  
Thats fine. But, are you getting my "drift" that it really doesn't matter to me that I get accepted? I'm not going anywhere. Jus like you, I have the right to be here and to leave comments, messages, blogs and what not. You chose to respond to them.

Thank you for you comment. But, My question is. Where is a website just for whites, that is kinda personal for us?
Tagged by Jessica Dillon on 07/31/2008  
So, you went from saying you're a work in progress to saying, "I'm fat fat fat and I don't care". You say you don't want to talk about this any more. That's fine. But don't think I'm here to attack anyone, because I'm not. I'm sure everyone here are great people. We all have our personal battles to fight.

hi. my thought provoking question meant do you really treat and talk to others like you would yourself. b/c im this society today many dont.

It's never pointless to discuss something you care about. There will never be a miracle pill, because people can't perform miracles. I never said what You are doing is My concern. What's my concern is what is trying to be pressed as a social norm. We've got a lot more life to live, so why not live it to its' full potential?
Tagged by Kevin Cook on 07/30/2008  
That is because I don't feel that there is any common ground. I don't live it, but I live amongst it. Therefore I am able to make a proper "judgement" about it. I am not here to "talk" about anyone. I am here to address issues I feel strongly about. You are right, a person's weight does not reflect thier values. But how they take care of their bodies does, and weight is one thing that "shows" that. It is about transforming the mental into the physical. If you have obstacles that get in the way then that's OK. Work through them. What is not OK is trying to express that living in obesity is a proper lifestyle to lead.

I keep pushing the issue because I feel that I am correct. I wouldnt bring up an issue merely to drop it the first time someone gets offended. People come in different shapes and sizes, but they make themselves obese. People should be accepted for who they are. And your body is a part of who you are. How you take care of it reflects your values. The confusion sets in when people force themselves to believe that appearance is the ONLY factor that I consider. I give all factors equal attention when dealing with people. But I wont accept the idea that appearance ISN'T a factor. There is never just ONE part to anything. So when tackling a situation you have to tackle All aspects of it. Not just the parts that won't offend people.

Well, for one you have to change your attitude/fear. Read that book - it's a short and easy read....and is life changing. If you can follow what's suggested, you won't fail. Universal laws will see to it that you don't...

Hi, thanks for replying to my blog. I agree with you, the world is tough now days and that effects the mindset heavily. So do you think that when someone gets their stuff together, they should help others? When I say help, I don't mean give them $5 dollars every time they ask, but repetetively tell them how to get $5 dollars until they finally get their stuff together.

It's a place that exists only in my own reality lol
Tagged by Kevin Cook on 07/29/2008  
Why are you scared? What do you think you will face that will be a hinderance? I suggest reading "The Science of Getting Rich" - It talks about a great approach to building your belief in yourself and how to be successful at whatever you do. But still answer the above questions, if you'd like. I'm curious...
