Are You Answering to a Name You Didn’t Choose?

  Are You Answering to a Name You Didn’t Choose? https://www.spreaker.com/episode/stripping-the-labels-the-power-of-self-definition--71490701 We step out the door and the world starts throwing labels like wet blankets. "Minority." "At-risk." "Disadvantaged." We wear them until they feel like skin, but they are just heavy burdens designed to slow our velocity. Today on Tha Daily Spark, we’re talking about the "Princess with the Crooked Back" and why her teacher, Sage, called her self-perceptions "noise." We’re looking at the trap of "blind velocity"—the modern obsession with moving forward so fast that we forget to turn back and fetch the values that actually sustain us. Is your "progress" just a fast-paced escape from your true self? Call to Inaction: Drop the tool that doesn't fit your hand; the forest is cleared by the sharpest mind, not the busiest. Stop asking permission to define your own reality. Today, id...

Salute to Luther Vandros

Man with golden voice/
we salute your mastery/
thank you for singing/

I still remember where I was when Luther passed. I was visiting my sister in New York, and I was sitting in her window trying to catch a breeze on that hot day. When the news flashed over the radio i was heart broken. Luther was a master at what he did and inspired me in many ways. I remember in high school I just lipped synced Luther and the ladies rushed the stage. it was incredible to see what the power of his voice could do.
I had my first slow dance off of Luther, and may have had sex for the first time after listening. So it is only appropriate that I salute this Master with a truly golden voice:

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 “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...
