The Hammer and the Vision: Wielding Double Creativity in the Season of Faith We are deep in the final stretch of 2025, Fam. Can you feel it? The air is thick right now. It’s not just the winter chill; it’s the vibration of completion. We are walking through the 7th Cycle, the season of Imani (Faith) , and we are marching toward the Great Restoration. But today? Today the fractal of time is doing something special. If you look at the map of time, the math is shouting at us. Here we are, standing in the Year of Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) —where we define ourselves and speak for ourselves. We are swimming in the Cycle of Imani —believing in our victory with all our hearts. But here is where it gets interesting: We are in the Week of Kuumba (Creativity) , and today, specifically, is the Day of Kuumba . That’s a "Double-Dose" of Creativity. A double shot of that creative spark. Now, I know what the world tells you creativity looks like. They tell you it’s adding more paint ...

Peace FAM:
I have been on the grind for years now with, blogging, podcasting, vlogging and now brewing I am finally making inroads on a platform, but I feel I need to explain why I do what I do. I believe that I need to express the Nia that is flowing through me at this time. My purpose is to enlighten, uplift, encourage, and I must be honest to talk. Those that know me, know that this the truth. I believe and have believed for a long time that I was born to talk. I have supported my family with my mouth, I have provided jobs with my mouth, I have raised money with my mouth, and I can continue but I won't. I am driven to do this, and to the dismay of many in my life I continue. I will get up early in the morning to make sure that I am able to reach those that are taking the time out to listen. Hell I will do a show if no one is there, and I fell I need to explain this desire. Because the fact is that I am not alone, many if not all of my readers, listeners, viewers, and drinkers have been called to do something. What separates me from the bunch is that I will do it, and do it for free. I will offend, I will praise, I will discover, and I will mess up publicly. All so that I can fulfill that Nia, because if I don't it won't let me rest. The goal of the video is to push those standing on the sidelines , into the game. You are not alone, and the craziness that you feel inside is not truly crazy. That is your internal GPS screaming for you to start your journey. We all were born with a quest, that we need to complete before we leave this life, have you started. If not what are you waiting on, the present world benefits from your silence, your stillness, and it feeds off your fear. Express your Nia, she will protect you, of course you will be challenged, of course you will face hard times, and you suffer, but my friend you will live. I mean really live, my Nia has taken me around the world. My Nia has fed me when I was hungry. My Nia has provided a school and home for my children. My Nia has brought true friends, and has exposed my enemies. My Nia educates and demands that I share what I discover with you. So excuse for being long winded, that is just the fire in bones. That is just the scream of victory of my ancestors rolling off my tongue.
Family, today I plan to lay out the why of what I do. I need all those that are on this GNJ train to understand who I am and why I am. Hopefully that will help you find the true you if you are lost. I will talk about the purpose of my podcast "Folktales For Grown Folks, and Tribal Quotes", I will discuss the websites, I will discuss the YouTube Channel, The Books, and finally "That Ambrosia". The bottom line is that outside of me being born to talk, I picked up that if you want to be a billionaire figure out away to bring value to a billion peoples lives. I have not reached a billion, but I am on my way. Especially with a tribe like y'all. So keep sharing, commenting, and let's build....
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 FAM: I am running into some powerful information about the power of the breath. I have been dealing with the concept of axe' in the breath for a long time, but now I have found scientific proof of the power of the breath, and even more importantly how the breath is taken in the body. My friends and family it has finally been proven that breathing through the nose is the best way to breath, but it has also been shown to help an individual over come or better control obesity, impotence in life as well as erectiel dysfunction, diabetes, insomnia, anxiety, depression, cardiovascular issues, GI disorders, and etc.. Proper Nostril breathing helps strengthen the immune system. This is a simple process that each of us can do to take control of our health. Proper breathing is powerful enough to move you toward health. There is absolutely no reason why anyone can not take advantage of this. It is free, it is relaxing, and it can get you high, what m...
I have noticed that many people lack humbleness, I guess that this principle has been dismissed as something that is old fashion and has been thrown on the scrapheap of history. Humbleness, I have found to be a necessary weapon of a warrior. Humbleness is one of the major principles that need to be honed and sharpened in the old and young. How can you learn if you have no humbleness? Yes high self esteem is important, but for some reason humbleness has been removed from the concept of esteem and replaced with false pride. In order to learn we have to be able bow our heads, close our mouths, and open our two ears. There is no learning without a humble heart. In order to learn we have be willing to admit our ignorance about a situation. Admitting ignorance requires humbleness which is important and can not be done by someone who has confused pride with self esteem. Admitting ignorance to someone or an institution is the first step to being able to gain the knowledge the...
