Stop Nursing Cold Ashes

   The Grievance Trap: Why Your Analytical Cynicism Is Just Cowardice Dressed Up as Intellect Checkout podcast Look at our community square. We have accumulated credentials, degrees, policy binders, and endless statistical proof of our own oppression. We can break down the mechanics of disenfranchisement until our throats are hoarse, yet our households and institutions remain frozen in place. The Guinean proverb warns us plain: “Knowledge without wisdom is like water in the sand.” It sinks right into the , leaves nothing to drink, and bears no fruit on the vine. Knowing you’re freezing doesn’t keep you warm. Sitting in a circle reciting the chemistry of the cold wind while blowing on gray ashes is not brilliance; it is paralyzing fear masquerading as critique. The Mirror: Kintu and the Mountain of the Sky-Maker In the Baganda tradition, when the cold drafts rolled over the hills and choked the crops, the village elders retreated into bitter grievance. They gave up. When young...

America needs/
Entrepreneurs creating/
Not jobs to be worked/

Men and Women with vision is what is needed today. We need those that are willing to create jobs, and not just search for them. While speaking to many young people in my community the major thing that I hear repeatedly is about the need for jobs. It seems as if we are in denial about the state of the world. Jobs are vanishing, and leaving opportunity for those who train themselves to see them. We must spark the desire to create jobs. We must foster the entrepreneurial spirit in ourselves and our youth. The day of the government and/or factory job is going the way of the dinosaur. We will be forced to fend for ourselves.This for most will sound terrifying but for those on their Journey this sounds like opportunity. In times of change and confusion that is when the s/heroes rise to create something new. The new mind state that has to come from those on their Journey is how do we provide employment? How do we create value? What skills do I have? what can I teach? what do I need to learn? Where is my Tribe? and etc.. In times like these we get to see our spiritual power in action. Many of us on this journey have to create "bricks from mud", we have have to do the impossible. We have to create value where their is perceived to be none. We have to create opportunities in places that are perceived to be barren. We have to plug into that Higher Power and tap our true creative potential. The opportunities that lie with us now are incredible. This is definitely a time for s/heroes.

We will be the ones that have step up for our kids and our elders. The State has shown us that they are not capable to take care of themselves. Why would or should we trust them with our living libraries (Elders), and our future (children). To do so, would be madness. so let's tap that creativity to become the entrepreneurs that our communities as well as this Nation needs.

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...

The Three R’s of Relationships: Building Bonds on Respect, Responsibility, and Reciprocity

The Three R’s of Relationships: Building Bonds on Respect, Responsibility, and Reciprocity In every relationship—whether personal, professional, or communal—there are foundational pillars that support and strengthen our connections. I call these the three R’s: respect , responsibility , and reciprocity . They’re the legs of the stool upon which strong, enduring relationships rest. Respect: Seeing Beyond the Surface True respect goes far beyond superficial acknowledgments. It’s about looking deeper—truly seeing the person beyond what’s on the surface. This means engaging with others on a level that honors their stories, experiences, and inherent worth. Respect isn’t just a courtesy; it’s a commitment to understanding the person in front of you, appreciating their struggles and triumphs, and valuing their unique perspective. Responsibility: Owning Your Part in the Relationship Responsibility in a relationship isn’t just about meeting obligations—it’s about owning your role in nurturing a...
