  Ujima vs. The Savior Complex: Why Your "Help" is Killing the Collective https://www.spreaker.com/episode/shedding-the-savior-complex-the-true-power-of-ujima--70563589 You’re tired because you’re carrying stones that don't belong to you. When we hear the word Ujima—Collective Work and Responsibility—most of us instantly feel a heavy weight on our shoulders. We think about the family members we have to rescue, the friends we have to carry, and the community trauma we are expected to fix. We've built an entire culture around the "Savior Complex," confusing shared struggle with shared building. But what if you've been practicing Ujima completely wrong? What if true collective work requires you to stop helping certain people? In today's episode of Tha Daily Spark, we are taking a blade to the false narratives holding our community back. We’re talking about the painful but necessary art of dropping the dead weight so you can finally find your true Tribe...

Blessings in disguise

Made love to fatigue/
My son stamina was born/
Now he runs with me/

 A new part of my journey has launched, and I have begun to explore running. I have started a training program that will prepare me for half-marathons and beyond. First I want to send shots out to RBGfit Club for suggesting the book "Born To Run" by Christopher McDougall. Which has motivated me to get up and start to running again. This is an excellent book written in a story format. That gives you information that you can use without boring you to death with tons of facts. This book talks about running style, types of shoes to wear or not to wear, methods of running, heroes of ultra marathons, relationship between endurance running and human survival, diet and etc... This book gave me a whole new view of running and why I have been called or should I say recalled to do it.
This book helped me take a new look at what running is in my life and what it could be. I have decided to use the information that i have found and use it in my personal journey to health and wellness.
I highly suggest that you read this book and share it with your friends.

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...
