Stop Scrambling for Crumbs in a Boundless Sky

Image
  We love to talk about ambition, but too many of us operate with the mindset of a caged bird—panicking over scraps and treating every brother or sister in our vicinity like competition. We stay trapped in the lower frequencies of Mad, Sad, and Scared , convinced that if someone else wins, our portion shrinks. That is not realism; it’s an engineered illusion of artificial scarcity designed to keep our collective power fragmented. The Yoruba ancestors destroyed that lie with a single, unyielding truth: The sky is wide enough for all birds to fly without touching wings. Imani is not passive optimism or wishing on a miracle. It is the deep, crimson foundation of self-mastery. True conviction means you move from victory, not for victory. Like the mighty oak already encoded within the acorn, your blueprint is already complete. You don’t need to add frantic hustle, anxiety, or cutthroat rivalry to your life. Through via negativa , your work today is subtractive: scrape off the jealousy...

An interview with Umar Ben Hassan on spreaker

For those of you that don't know who Umar Ben Hassan is maybe you heard of the group he was part of "The Last Poets". I had a chance to chop it with this Elder and listen to him tell me how he hooked up with "The Last Poets". His story covers every part of the heroes Journey, so I didn't need to ask questions. He laid the truth out and even discussed with us how he developed his most famous piece.
After listening to him, I could do nothing but laugh because he showed me how the universe works to get us where it wants us to go, and how small of a world we really live in. So take a few minutes and get acquainted with an Elder on the Journey.
Nuff said
Peace & 1hunidyears

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 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...
