Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade Great Day, Fam. This one right here? It’s not for everyone. If you’re not at or approaching Eldership—defined in our tribe as about 55 years old and up—you might not feel all of this. But if you’re curious, or if you’re one of those younger souls already walking with wisdom, you’re welcome to keep reading. This message is for the Elders. For those of us who should know better. And yes—I’m including myself. Let’s Start With the Mirror I’ve got to confess something. I’ve been guilty. Guilty of being reactionary. Guilty of falling into the trap of conservatism. Guilty of romanticizing the past. Guilty of looking at our young people and calling them “soft”—as if we were born warriors, as if we didn’t have to become who we are through fire, failure, and guidance.

Here is another pledge that came through me that you can use to help keep you focused during the day.

I am Great, and day by day,
I am moving toward being the greatest of all times.
My mind is my weapon of choice,
I sharpen it by studying, asking questions, and breathing (take a full breath);
I clean my mind by using Non violence, honesty, patience, and Self reflection.
My body is my temple and I care for it by healthy eating, healthy living, and exercise.
I was born for a Purpose and I live my life on Purpose.
I was born for the New millennium, and I will change the world by first changing my Self.



Nuff saud
