Gluttony, Greed & Lack of Discipline....

Since the beginning of time Men & Women have "cheated" on each other.

What does it really mean?
To ME - it's the same as any other form of gluttony, greed or lack of discipline.

It's interesting how so many societies condone & encourage greed & gluttony
then turn around & "tsk tsk" when it's convenient or profitable.

Honestly - WHY do "we" get SO Bent out of shape when spouses cheat?
Because they took an oath before God & Witnesses?!
REALLY: how many of YOU (who cast aspersions and "simply CAN'T BELIEVE he or she DID such a Terrible thing as cheating on their spouse) have MAINTAINED a strictly regimented diet and cared ideally for your OWN Body/Temple which is EarthWear loaned to you by God? Heck, if we can't take care of God's Wear - why do we think anyone's going to honor a human contract?

Maybe because I've been battling with this discipline to STAY AWAY from: sugars, breads & other "taboo" foods that I'm feeling a bit of understanding for those who can't resist the sweetness offered up by a "side-piece" (whether it's cake or cookies;-).

Say What U will - but there's NO denying....

This is the MOST famous individual AFTER Jesus! Name ONE other person who was as WORLD famous by the time they were ten years old. I don't think it's possible. Jesus died - left this earth at the age of 33. No human should have been this famous, especially not as young as he was... it is the reason he is so troubled, in my opinion (in addition to the stress & abuse he endured). U may not like him, but there is NO denying his WORLD wide fame and influence. Can U IMAGINE the F&%ery and general mayhem that will ensue when this MAN dies? If you have ever been lucky enough to see him live I hope you saved those ticket stubs &/or photos because they will be as valuable to your children and grandchildren as any of the best stocks on the market. And you can quote me on that;-).

Wow! Michael Jackson left this earthly realm The Day Before MY Earthly Father's 73rd B'EarthDay. This was originally posted August 26th, 2007 and MJ passed away June 25th, 2009. I have ALWAYZ loved your talents even if I never MET nor KNEW YOU, Michael. I am THANKFUL for the works that you have blessed this earth with!

Wednesday Wisdoms & Wonders

Today I am observing a "moment" of silence in honor & respect for the losses suffered on Sept. 11, 2001. See yesterday's post for a wise scripture. Thank you.

Heaven help US!!!

I wish this were a fictional excerpt. I had an appointment to present information to Newark High School students today. I shared an online resource to assist them in deciding careers and colleges. As I was helping one student send the link of the resource to himself, I noticed many of the emails in his box came from this site below. I didn't ask him about it, but came home and immediately did a search. I CANNOT believe this is a real site. I do know that HATE sites exist, now I've discovered SELF-HATE sites exist. I wrangled with whether or not to ignore it because I don't want to promote it - but many of you have children and you need to be aware of all the manure they encounter here in cyberspace.

I went to the site in search of information about those who developed it, without success. Next, I went to their Terms of Agreement and this is what I found (most of this is so ridiculous to me, because the very EXISTENCE of the site is a form of harassment in my opinion).

"The following is a partial list of the kind of Content that is illegal or prohibited on the Website. NiggaSpace.com reserves the right to investigate and take appropriate legal action in its sole discretion against anyone who violates this provision, including without limitation, removing the offending communication from the Service and terminating the membership of such violators.

Though, I do have to ask myself why I'm irritated by NiggaSpace...but find www.rent-a-negro.com a Politically Strong statement....Hmmmm.

Welcome Back for Wednesday Wisdoms vol. 3

I know you'll forgive this late-in-the-day post. This is my first taste of blogging while traveling & visiting family:-). I desperately needed this boost of "home" - there really IS no place like it! After several conversations with family I am inspired to post the following quote for you to mull over.

C'mon now, look closely and see what U can dig about the following bit of wisdom:

"A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on."
Carl Sandburg

What would U do if a friend asked you:

Men - to be sperm donors?

Women - to be surrogates or egg donors?

I read about this phenomena in the newspaper all of the time, but have never "known" anyone who took it seriously. Now, I'm curious. What would you do?

Indep. School Poll

AND you can select MORE than one answer...so have AT it:-)

Fertility Craziness

Why get out raged if human errors occur when trying to "play" God?

I couldn't even find a picture to represent this fiasco. Not to sound hard hearted or cold, but I had to laugh when I read this article on MSN today: NY Fertility Clinic Sued. The gist of the article is that a woman was inseminated with the "wrong" sperm (not her husband's).

The couple says that they have been forced to raise a child who is “not even the same race, nationality, color ... as they are,” the judge said in the ruling.

Then to add insult to injury:

They say that “while we love Baby Jessica as our own, we are reminded of this terrible mistake each and every time we look at her; it is simply impossible to ignore,” the judge’s decision said.

I just feel for the child who will be raised begrudgingly by this set of parents...or will they eventually put the child up for adoption? Once again, children suffer due to the ignorance and arrogance of adults.
