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...

Peace FAM
I woke up this morning and began moving on the toast, but I was sore beyond belief. I feel like I was in a car accident. I attempted to do my workout after the axe' breaths, and had to give up the ghost. At that time I took some advice that one of my elders gave me about health. He told me that when ever he didn't feel right that he would back track 3 days, and find what brought on the ailment. Of course I followed this wisdom and found what was going on. Except mine did not start 3 days ago, but maybe 6 months. For a majority of my adult life I had been sleeping on a futon, a firm mat that was laid over wood or directly on the floor. When we moved I started sleeping on a bed, and the mattress is wearing me out. Combine that with not getting enough sleep over the past few days, keeping a regular light workout regiment, and viola'.
Today you will get the toast, clean up, axe' breath, and discussion. I had to keep it short. My apologies. stay tuned because we will begin building back up to our regular scheduled program.

Now to the issue that I woke up with on my mind. Today I want to discuss "The Voices", we all have the voice, and since we are on Umoja which also shares the day with the Hermetic Law of Mentalism, I thought that this would be a great time to discuss the voices, that for many have plagued us by spouting out negativities. This voice has away of making every thing we come in contact with or even try bad. This voice is mental manifestation that we will have to carry out a personal war against in order to move to the next level in our life. This voice is our personal dragon that we will have to slay to get access to the treasure of our souls. This dragon has fed on every negative event that has occurred in our lives up to this point and appears at certain times to be unconquerable. Let's take a few minutes on this Umoja to talk about this beast and how to tame him and use him to catapult us in our life. So watch or listen in.
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...
Peace and Love, Brothers and Sisters! It's your guide, Brother ha2tim, here to illuminate the path of wisdom and empowerment through the Gye-Nyame learning journey. In our quest for personal growth and community development, understanding the layers of knowledge is crucial. This article is not just a read; it's an invitation to transform your life. Let's embark on this journey together and unlock the secrets to self-mastery and cultural enlightenment. 1. Laying the Foundation with Memorization We begin with the bedrock of knowledge – Memorization. This isn't about just storing information; it's about setting the stage for deeper insights. Memorizing our history, proverbs, and principles lays a strong foundation for our growth journey. 2. Elevating to Intelligence of the Mind Moving beyond memorization, we enter the realm of Intelligence of the Mind. Here, we start to analyze, question, and expand upon what we've learned.
