The Information Trap: Why Your Degree and Book Collection Aren’t Saving You

Image
Let’s stop confusing digital hoarding with wisdom. You can read every pan-African classic, quote every proverb on command, and hold three degrees stamped by an outside system that doesn’t love your spirit—and still wake up broke, fearful, and spiritually bankrupt. Modern culture wants you to believe that gathering data makes you powerful. It doesn’t. Consuming books without applying them is just intellectual obesity. The Namibian proverb cuts straight to the bone: “Learning expands great souls.” Notice what it says. It doesn’t say learning expands your ego, your resume, or your social media clout. It expands your soul . And our knowledge-holders drop the law immediately after: “There is truly no expanding without centering. A person is foolish not to contact the center.” If you try to stretch out without an anchor, you don't grow; you scatter your àṣẹ into the wind.

FreeStyle Friday- 6-12-15

This is freestyle, and I am wondering what will pop off my mind onto my tongue and out my mouth. Feel free to join the hangout, message me so that I can see the link so that you can join the conversation directly or feel free to message questions and comments. I will give you a shout out, and if you have something you want me to  let me know.
I have to be honest I have been plagued by the image of a young man being shot from behind, and it being forgotten so that we can discuss what I consider "fuckery" in Texas. Remember #ausetwe need you, now more than ever. Asar has been cut to pieces and this young Herus are running around here like they have no sense. Hopefully we will wake up before we hit the designed end for us. Also religion has been plaguing me for a few hours today. I need to ask at some point how do we escape the mind and spirit traps that have been laid for our souls. But hey its freestyle and I will flow, and hopefully you will join me.
I had problems with the embedded image showing up so here is a link just in case:

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 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...
