A diamond is a chunk of coal that did well under pressure. -Henry Kissinger

#codeofthestreets:
If you’re going through something, go through it; face your fears, focus, and keep pressing forward. Don’t let the pressure of the process break you; there’s always a process before progress, let your obstacles make you… let ’em make you mentally, physically, and emotionally stronger. If you can’t jump over the hurdles, RUN THROUGH THEM; don’t let trepidation take you off track, don’t fall at the first hurdle. Remember, obstacle courses are designed to enhance your ability. Your stumbling blocks are building you up, let them lead you towards something beautiful. Keep on keeping on, stay the course, the pressure is shaping something beautiful. You are tougher than a diamond, you are as brilliant as a diamond; with laser-sharp focus, you will shine bright like a diamond… THE WORLD IS YOURS, there’s a diamond mine in your mind; if the diamond can make it out of the rough, so can you.

Time tells everything, fire refines gold, pressure makes diamonds and your attitude is the alchemist that makes ordinary moments extraordinary. Imagine how wonderful life would be, if you learned to welcome the pressure. Now practice the power of now and welcome the pressure like the Hope Diamond. Learn to let the jewels of life enrich your heart and enrich your mind and in Godspeed may they transform your soul into a beautiful treasure.

Fear Does Not Live Here

Fear does not live here;

on the other side of fear,

fear is not welcomed.

Good Grief

black lives matter, sociology

You could exemplify the epitome of peace.

Yet they’ll say you should’ve been more polite,

after you’re murdered by the police.

 

Good grief, it’s getting hard to survive.

If they don’t bury you in the system,

if they don’t kill you in the streets,

if they don’t kill you in prison,

they’ll kill your innocence; remember The Central Park Five.

 

I remember when the young black male was the most endangered species in America.

Nowadays, innocent, magnificent African Animals should be protected.

Yet those that have sworn to protect and serve are murdering innocent, magnificent African-American Humans in America.

 

Good grief; the police will fire 50 shots, if you’re an unarmed groom to be in America.

 

Good grief; the police will fire 41 shots, if you’re an unarmed immigrant, sitting on a stoop in America.

 

Good grief; the police will fire 39 shots, if you’re an elderly woman at home alone in America.

 

Good grief; the police will fire 137 shots, if you flee from police in America.

 

The digital era has given the world a glimpse of what inner city districts have witnessed for years.

They will kill you on video, they do not care.

They will kill you with your hands up, they do not care.

Black Lives Matter is the digital equivalent of shedding tears.

 

The war on drugs has ravaged the inner city districts for years.

They make money when the drugs, guns, and violence appear.

They make money when the District Attorneys and the Judges distribute them years.

Black Lives Matter is the digital equivalent of “does anybody care?”

 

Black Lives are being wiped out of society, look at the incarnation rates.

They falsely accuse and over sentence Blacks and Latinos, I’m afraid to substantiate.

 

Black Lives are being wiped out of society, look at the abortion rates.

They gave syphilis and AIDS to Blacks, I’m afraid to procreate.

 

Black Lives are being wiped out of society, at epidemic rates.

Too many mothers and fathers are burying their sons and daughters in the United States.

 

I’m beginning to drown in all of the blood that was spilled in the streets.

I’m beginning to drown in all the tears that were shed in the streets.

Good Grief!
