But what if they lied?

  https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-chisel-and-the-masterpiece--70503591 They told you that to be successful, you had to hustle harder. They said that creativity meant constantly producing, constantly adding, constantly proving your worth. But what if they lied? Today is Kuumba, the day of Creativity, radiating the color Orange. But we aren’t talking about putting more on your canvas. We’re talking about taking the chisel to the stone. As a people, we walk around wrapped in the heavy expectations of a world that wants to define us. We are carrying the exhaustion of false narratives, code-switching, and societal demands. What happens when you stop trying to build a monument for other people and start scraping away the buildup that hides your true self? The masterpiece is already inside you, but it’s buried under a mountain of "shoulds" and "have-tos." On today's episode, we explore the terrifying, beautiful process of dropping the weight.

Mathematics

All Your Math Are Belong to UsImage by tachyondecay via Flickr
  

Everyone knows that two halves make a whole.

My measure of integrity is one fraction of the soul.
One flesh plus another lying unprotected
adds one nine months later unexpected,
unselected, disconnected cause' your daddy's gonna run.
He's so afraid to be a father cause' no one ever called him son.
That's three minus one, remainder two that's scared to death.
Eighteen years later they'll still be wondering why he left.
The baby's crying, mama's dying as she gives him to the state.
Now it's three minus two remainder one to contemplate.
The problem was simple but was the answer so exact?
Well...they say we can't add, but we sure can subtract.

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 Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels

  The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels “It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.” — Aesop In the world of fables, we often find animals acting out the deepest parts of our humanity. These creatures, symbols of instinct and survival, carry lessons older than time itself. The Bat and The Weasels , retold from the mind of Aesop and reimagined through the lens of Gye-Nyame Journey, isn’t just a tale for children—it’s a guide for those grown folks who still seek mastery. When the World Has You Cornered Here’s the setup: A bat falls to the ground and is caught by a weasel. The weasel hates birds. So the bat, slick with the tongue, says, “I’m not a bird—I’m a mouse.” The weasel lets him go. Later, the same bat falls again. This time, a different weasel catches him. But this weasel hates mice. So what does the bat say? “I’m not a mouse—I’m a bird.” And he gets set free again. Now, you could say the bat was being dishonest. But hold on. Let’s go de...

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...
