The Struggle In life is Hard....

To me, the life that we live often throws many challenges at us.And it can sometimes seem that no matter what we do or where we go these obstacles in life seem to follow us.I have come to realize that each new day is a day of progress.I once knew a girl who's parents were very loving to everyone else but her.. and every time she and I had a chat she would tell me about all the terrible things they told her about herself..That no matter how much she achieved they would never recognize anything that was great in her life..Till recently i met up with this friend of mine and I asked her how her life was .She told me that she is doing really great at her school and she is taking care of herself better than she did before.So i asked her...hows life with the parents..she replied to me..it's the same as before and perhaps the words towards me have gotten colder.It then prompt me to inquire...How do you progress if the life at home is worst...My friend smiled and replied.. Every stone they throw at me i step on it..if they tell me i cant do it.. i use that rage of being told i cant ..to can!Everything they told me i cant do..is now a CAN in my life.I dnt know about you guys but after hearing that story its hard not to think that the hardest struggles in life sometimes becomes the best!

Power...

Sociologist Marx Weber once said "the change of a man or the number of men realize there own will in a communal action even against the resistance of others whoa re participating in the action"( Weber in Gerth and Mills,1948,pg180 by this it is said that the power of the individual is the ability to resist and conquer when others oppose our views.Sometimes the world is against our thoughts, our views,even our beliefs.Perhaps we do not conform to the norms of society.Maybe we are conservative in a spontaneous society ..does this make us a freak.Maybe we are expressive in a reserved world,does this make us an outcast.No! if we hold strong to who we are inside,we can achieve the power to be free.The power of life in itself a challenge,but we must ace it headstrong.Only then can we experience the true nature of power..

Heal the world... Make it a better place... thank you M.J

He graced the stage with his music at the young age of 5,entertained us with his * kicking moves* and captivated us with his sweet angelic voice.As the years gone by he captured our every essence of curiosity.Micheal Jackson is not just the king of pop but the king of legends.Without him many of our gladiators of music would not have a foundation.Songs such as Thriller,Billy-Jean,and Beat it were the soundtracks to our grooves of life.The song Man in the Mirror and the Earth song..run deep.Today he no longer grace our presence.May he Rest In Peace ...that's what they say..Then tell me why is the ugly side of his life is being advertised to make money...paternity tests being done on his children...his hurtful past being exposed...
Many of us criticize Micheal Jackson for being weird.Down to the colour of his skin, his facial features,his dress and even the way he acts is scrutinized.Do you now see why he hides himself from the eyes of the public.Im sure many of us reading this right now would not like our ever move and flaws demeaned world wide.Micheal Jackson has paved the road of musical history for and and this is how we repay the King of Legends,by slandering his good name after he is gone.It saddens my heart to hear the disgusting criticism he faced at the hands of those who were ignorant to having an open mind to life.Micheal Jackson was robbed of his childhood and sought to gain it back when he was finaly free from his father.He enjoyed the company of those who were innocent and backstabbed by those hungry for something he worked hard to accomplished.He was a friend to those who were sick and like any child would do anything to help those in need.
In order to understand Micheal we should think innocently .Perhaps it is we ourselves who need to be secure with ourselves and cleanse our mind of such perverted thoughts.He was simply a child at mind and was inhumanly attacked by those who envied him.On the topic of paternity test... It does not matter if biologically the children wasn't his...to many of those who are adopted, are your non-biological parents less of a parent than the ones who made u.Micheal Jackson was the King of Legends who gave us so much .To those who have disgraced his name...well you have not won the battle because Micheal Jackson rests firmly in our hearts..loved by many respected by all.....As the old saying goes * its better to die young than fade out.....the Legends still lives on.

The freedom of Happiness

If i could change my past to anything different,i wouldn't change it for the world. People come from all walks of life..who we are is all unique .Doesn't matter how bad or great our lives are we are all equal.Some of us sit and ponder why life is so cruel,but have we ever thought about how many people in the world are suffering.
I believe that for us to be truly be happy with life we must accept who we are,our past our present and make it a good future.In an episode in Madea's Family Reunion ,Madea said"....its not what people call you but what you answer to"
The true test of time is strength,strength to endure all life has to throw at us,The ups,the downs.....Acceptance is the first step to crossing mountains.No matter how difficult life gets we must always keep our chins up.Breaking free from our struggles is not always easy.No matter where we came from"...the journey is more important than the end or the start"

The battle of the sexes!

I once had a nightmare that i was being kidnapped,that no matter how strong wanted to be was scared. Waking up during the night,I called a male friend of mine to talk about this nightmare.It hit me.As women we try so hard to fight for our rights,our freedoms to be equal in anyway.But are we biologically built to be that way or are we mentally strong enough to handle such pressure of everyday life.If u believe in the words of the bible there must be a reason why God choose the first human to be a man,or for a woman to be made from the rib of a man.I do admire the women of the past who have fought for the rights of women,to give us an equal voice.However I cannot help but wonder if this desire to be equal has evolved into a desire to overthrow patriarchal power.Many of us woman has achieved so much authority but on a personal note I prefer to work under a male leader rather than a female.Not because I think females are less competent but the fact that females are emotional,that many (not all)operate under emotions.The strength to which God gave us we must use in the right way.God gave us women strength ,power of emotions( not that men do not have emotions)But both men and women deal with emotions differently.My article is not in anyway blasting criticisms at women saying that they are in no way capable of managing emotions..All that i am voicing is that as women we must not* nail them to the cross* as much as we do.Yes we are all equal but some of us hold strengths in places others are weak.If we use our power righteously then the fruit of our power shall bare success.

Individuality

Individuality.....Its sets us apart separating us from everyone else.The characteristics of our individualism is painted by our expressions of inner feelings,or even our interpretation of society's impact on us.Are we oppression,or accepted,an outcast or part of the in crowd.Many of us live our lives conforming to whatever society tells us is right.We sit when we are suppose to,eat when they tell us to,believe whatever is told,because everything else would be a taboo.But what about what we feel inside,doesn't that matter?Why should it make us outcasts?Why should we speak only when we are spoken to or hold our tears because of our gender.The power of being and individual is getting the courage to stand up and voicing the true intonation of our spirit.Individuality stands firm to the notion that society does not define us.....it is we who define society.
