Stop Crying at the Musicians: Why Radical Responsibility Dictates Your Next Move The rhythm of the world just changed under your feet, and you are still out here trying to dance yesterday’s routine. Too many of our people are locked in a spiritual temper tantrum. We see economic ground shifting, family dynamics fracturing, and systemic currents turning against us, and our immediate, reflexive reaction is to panic, fold our arms, and cry foul. We point fingers at the band, demand the comfortable tunes of the past, and when we inevitably trip over our own feet, we retreat into the suffocating corners of blame, shame, and guilt. We act like wounded spectators in our own lives, waiting for an outside hand to change the playlist. The Ancestral Algorithm cuts that illusion down at the root: "Responsibility is the key that unlocks my collective power."

Daily Toast- Umoja 410171 (confusing being scared with being mad is stopping Unity in our communiity)

Peace, Power, and Joy FAM
Umoja has swooped in upon me like a hawk, and snatched me up before I was ready. Now I am playing catch up, but I am grateful for another opportunity to greet you on this Great day.

Confusion is a powerful force, that cause us to mislabel and misplace things. In our confusion about our emotions we have mislabeled scared, and misplaced it in the wrong emotions group. This has caused so much confusion for me. For years I thought I was angry, and I get never understand fully why. I struggled with this anger, I fought with this anger, and  I spoke about this anger. Never realizing that in my confusion I mislabeled fear (scared) as anger. My whole life I have been socialized to maginalize fear (scared), even take it out of my personal language, not realizing that I was crippling my self as a whole human being. Getting rid of part of my guidance system that would help me get back to who I really am, or better yet what I truly am Powerful, Peaceful, and Joyous. The natural state for all of us.
Now be sure to checkout the video and join the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge. We have to start getting back in touch with ourselves.
