While I am not a particularly religious person, I have come to believe that regardless of the circumstance, all things tend to work to the good, if we just let them. And, in all cases, life will let us know the path. Sometimes the path is found by moving; other times, by being still. Sometimes we must shout; other times, just be quiet and listening.

Yes, Blacks were the first modern Humans (as far as we know with current scientific knowledge), but we were not responsible for every ancient human development, nor were we known worldwide.

I much prefer the strength that comes from adversity, than the weakness that comes from privilege.

The great irony:

Insofar as men disproportionately hold positions of power and influence, all too frequently men are given the power to decide life or death.

Women, on the other hand, who are the source of all life, are now being threatened with the loss of this power in the one domain in which they've been able to exercise it: that of their own bodies. Men are expanding the sphere of power in which they decide life or death to the very source of life.

I love women, and so does Honest Brother.

ebb and flow.... yin and yang.... we all have our moment of glory.... and our moment of silence....

I think there is certainly focused and dedicated work that we must do in ALL corners of our community, but I think against the tide of white supremacy that we constantly struggle against - I think our achievement and position is quite remarkable and worthy of praise. We can always do better, but I think it is critically important to recognize the many bright spots in our community that demonstrate what we can achieve - against crushing obstacles!

I am truly proud of Africa America. tfro

My Father taught me that each partner has a role and in their role they are the authority if you disagree state your case, but if they don't go along bow to their authority.

Next he taught never marry a woman you don't want to chase around the kitchen table. He also taught that women and men are equal and you must respect your woman's mind and her mental process, even if it differs from yours. Different is not less, just different.

Lastly he said honor your marriage above all else. If you are married that must be the first thing in your life or you're not really married. He said "honor your wife as the first infinite cause of all the good in your life and approach her sexually like you are going to the altar of the divinities".
