Scrape The Canvas

https://www.spreaker.com/episode/scrape-the-canvas-reclaiming-kuumba--70619646  Have you noticed how exhausted everyone looks trying to be "creative"? We’ve been sold a lie that Kuumba requires us to constantly produce, grind, and add more to our already overloaded lives. But what if the greatest creative act you could perform today has nothing to do with starting something new? What if the masterpiece is already there, suffocating under years of societal buildup, false expectations, and inherited guilt? In today's porch talk, we dive into why the secret to true Kuumba isn't about picking up the brush—it's about scraping the canvas. We explore the subtractive approach to SelfMastery, where letting go becomes your greatest power. You might be surprised by what happens when you finally stop trying so hard. Call to Inaction: A heavy basket catches no wind; empty it to feel the breeze. Reflect on this today: What daily routine or habit is purely noise that I can stop...

Breaking Free

Peace, Power, and Joy to my Family! It’s your brother ha2tim, here to light up that path from the shadows of doubt to the sunshine of self-belief. Today’s vibe? We’re tackling that inner chatter, flipping the script from those nagging negative loops to empowering, positive affirmations that elevate our spirit and guide us toward our true greatness.


In this digital age, where the battlefield is as much in our minds as in the world around us, it's easy to get caught up in the undercurrents of negativity. But why settle for survival mode when we're meant to thrive? Let’s dive deep into transforming our mental game, moving from defense to offense in the arena of life.

Recognizing the Power of Negative Loops

Our brilliant minds, designed to protect us, can sometimes get stuck replaying the worst scenarios. This old-school survival tactic, while once crucial, now often holds us back from embracing the joy and peace we deserve.

The Virtues of Maat: Guiding Our Mental Ship

Inspired by the timeless wisdom of Maat, we’re reminded that balance, truth, and harmony are not just ideals but practical tools for navigating life. Controlling our thoughts becomes essential in maintaining our equilibrium in this ever-spinning world.

The Watcher Within: Awakening to Our Inner Observer

On my runs, a revelation hit me – the presence of the "watcher." This part of us, observing thoughts without attachment, is a game-changer. It’s an invitation for all of us to cultivate this awareness, stepping back from the noise and choosing which frequencies we tune into.

Shifting Focus: Cultivating Positive Visualizations

Why let our minds wander into dark corners when we can illuminate them with visions of what uplifts us? I challenge you to steer your mental energy towards what brings you peace, joy, prosperity, and balance. Imagine the shift in your life when your focus is consistently on building, growing, and loving.

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.

  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...

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...
