Finding Peace In A Nation Of Chaos…

The simplicity of living was taken away from us with the implementation of rules and laws that are formulated and designed to take away our peace and limit our freedoms… while the majority just want to live a life of quality, peace and happiness…others wish to create chaos and keep our nation in a state of flux…along with the lives of the average citizen.

If inalienable rights were really honored, freedom would be undeniable and enforced for all people living in the United States…regardless of Race, Color, or Creed…the inalienable rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness would be the golden law of the land, and preserved and protected at all costs…for everyone.

The America we live in today would not exist as a divided land of conscience…if inalienable rights…peace…freedom…equality…liberty…and happiness, reigned in the “Land of the Free.”

Every citizen of this country…regardless of Race, wears shackles…and are slaves to something…someone…real or imaginary…and they keep the cycle of discontent moving…moment to moment…minute by minute…hour by hour…day by day…week by week…year by year…decade to decade…century to century…and beyond…until it builds up such complexity of contagion and spiral webs so tangled…it holds generations captive…with only a few managing to escape the chaos and turmoil to build real and true lives of peace…if ever.

What is real…and what is true? If living in America has taught us anything…it has shown us that history is not reliable, lacking much in what is real and what is true…That anyone can be bought…sold…bartered…traded…and robbed of life…liberty…and the pursuit of happiness…Some victimized themselves by selling their souls…some quite innocently victims…because of the color of their skin…Just ask those who were brought over in shackles because of their looks and color…and ask those who were indigenous and free…loved and honored the land…before they were deemed “savage”…exterminated…with the remaining put on Reservations….

Finding peace in chaos means identifying the chaos and putting an end to it.

Finding peace means when the chaos is identified…the courage to end it must be present…willing and able…to put an end to it…for the sake of peace.

To identify the chaos…one must first seek out the chaos in themselves.  Find the courage to end it once it is identified…and start incorporating peace within…to bring it without…

Once that is done…like-minded individuals begin to emerge on the scene to create peace within communities and chaotic organizations and institutions that create laws and rules designed to keep people suppressed…joyless…prisoners of social, economic and governing disparities, in order to control and regulate the quality of life, while dangling half-eaten carrots under the noses of citizens…who dream of a life of simple pleasures with the means to enjoy life…liberty…and the pursuit of happiness…which is their inalienable right…and their peace.

These laws that are being put into place to suppress specific voters are just the beginning of the end…the end of a young country still battling to find peace.

Being led like sheep to the slaughter only intensifies the chaos and secures a countdown to the end of Democracy… Don’t be fooled…the right hand is keeping the left hand busy by blinding it to the truth of what is really going on. The “right hand” is the politicians running the country as they see fit…The ”left hand” is “We the People.”

We are not a country of “Democrats and Republicans.”  We are a country of people who want our lives to be something more than pieces on a chessboard maneuvered about in somebody else’s game…

Peace will be a struggle…but a battle worth fighting and winning.

Finding peace in a Nation of chaos is up to each and every one of us…

We can do it…

Our Nation awaits….

I Am An American…Let The People See…

I Am An American…Let The People See…

I am an American…

My heritage is comprised of African, Native American and European ancestry…

Because of the color of my skin…when people look upon my face they see a person of color…quite simply, a Black person…who happens to also be…a woman.

Without thorough tracing of my family tree, I know that I am at least a fifth generation born here in America…

I am an American…

In my years of growing up in my country of birth…I have witnessed…and continue to witness the horror and tragedies of Racism through media coverage…within my immediate family…and my overall families of African heritage spread throughout America…and the world over.  My immediate concerns are here in America…because I am an American…

I remember as a young girl…looking at “before” and “after” pictures of a young man whose name was Emmett Till, in a Magazine called “Jet.” I believe I was ten years old…Emmett was a handsome young man to me…and he was horrifically beaten, mutilated and murdered…accused of flirting with or whistling at a white woman…Those images haunted my young mind for days and weeks afterward…I remember asking my aunt questions as I was looking through the magazine at her home, what certain words and sentences meant…Sometimes she didn’t answer me. I came to understand as I grew older…

I was sick to my stomach wondering how anyone could do such a horrific thing…to such a beautiful young boy…

I am an American…

He was an American…

How could something like this come to be?

Mamie Till-Mobley, Emmett’s mother said, “Let the people see what they did to my boy.”

A Historian and Author, Elliot J. Gorn wrote a book called, “Let The People See”, released on November 1, 2018.  A study about the murder of Emmett Till.  Maureen Corrigan, a book critic ended her review of the book saying…

…”Let The People See”… is a vivid reminder of just how easy it is for people not to see things they’d rather not see.” October 30, 2018 Book Review.

How easy is it for people not to see things?

…To watch George Floyd murdered by a police officer…while other officers stood around and watched…and did nothing to stop it… and not bring charges of 1st degree murder against the officer who murdered Floyd, and bring accessory murder charges against each officer standing by while his life’s breath was being taken away from Mr. Floyd with the officer’s person on Floyd’s chest, and his knee planted firmly against his neck…as he pleaded for air and his mother…

George was an American…

I am an American…

We all know the successive lives taken…the character assassinations and excuses of life threatening scenarios which were never proven to justify the taking of those lives…

They were…Americans…

In 1979…I lost my own brother…who was visiting relatives in Louisiana…unarmed and not a threat…shot twice in the back at 24 years of age.

He was an American…

I am an American…

My father was a United States Navy Veteran… He died a year before my brother was murdered by two police officers in Louisiana…

He was an American…

Who has created such vulnerabilities and limitations to America’s Democracy?

America is not perfect by any means of the imagination…However, we can make it better…for EVERY American…by making the choices that include every American…Man…Woman…and Child…regardless of Race…Creed…or Culture.

If we are to honor what America truly stands for…we will uphold our Democracy by rescuing and strengthening and rebuilding a better country… and a better way of life inclusive of liberty…with laws protecting those liberties solidly…not just with pretty words spoken or written on a piece of paper….

Our country will not fall into “Socialism” as is being touted by an opposing Party.

How easy it is for people to not see things they’d rather not see…

Fear is the great oppressor…That is why it is a successful tool to throw into the mix when the object is to gain the upper hand…

Who can restore America’s Democracy and take measures to ensure it against attacks from without as well as within…from those who misrepresent themselves as patriots to…and for the American people?

Standing example…The present Administration has broken every spiritual law…completely ignores the rule of law…and broken every Oath of Office with impunity…and are using every fear tactic known to Man…including Voter Suppression, to secure another four years of divisiveness and damage to the American people and our Democracy…

How easy is it…for people not to see things…they’d rather not see…Especially when these scenarios are given a free “Party” pass and being acted out daily, before our very eyes?

Covid-19 is making an example of the flagrant ignorance being directed at its presence and consequences in lack of protection against it…the disregard for its toll already in lives taken and its illness spreading…due to the ignorance and untruths being throw out to the masses by the present Administration…who have taken on another false belief that they know better than the medical experts…and Science…

How easy it is for people to see things…they’d rather not see…

I am an American…

My heart bleeds for those who “call themselves Americans” and so readily support the ruination of our Democracy…and our America…

And my heart bitterly weeps…and bleeds continuously for those who are “True Americans”…

Who love this country…Who have shed blood for this country…in service to this country…to preserve the meaning of Liberty…Truth…Justice…Honor…Integrity…and the real and true…American Way.

For those who have fought…and have passed the torch so that those who love America can continue to remove the shadows of Racism and Inequality…to restore and uphold the voice and meaning of the Lady standing in New York Harbor…

To those of us who are mindful and who uphold the motto of “Never Again” constantly… to remind us of the dangers of apathy, dictatorships…supremacy…and the darkness that erupts in souls who quest for absolute power…

These truths have revealed to us that this present Administration in the White House is no different than those who launched the 9-11(2001) attack against America…

This present Administration is no different than those who bombed the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013…

No Commander-in-Chief with a heart would send their people into battle without the proper gear and ammunition…

No Commander-in-Chief would ignore high casualties in a battle without expressing compassion and concern…

No Commander-in-Chief would continue to entertain an obvious threat to the lives of his citizens without taking actions to contain it…unless the lives of the masses…didn’t matter…

No Commander-in-Chief with a conscience would repeal healthcare insurance for 23 million citizens without a safety net…

The latest act of this Administration is to commit Voter Suppression…Terrorism…and using the Federal and State justice systems to aid in attempting to hijack an Election win…Organized crime at its best….

This Administration is using their greatest deception to easily accomplish their acts of destruction, intimidation and terrorism against the American people…

They are claiming to be “Americans”….

We cannot undo the many inhuman atrocities visited upon those of my ancestry…

Nor can we undo the many inhuman atrocities of the past that have been visited upon other groups of our diverse, human family…

The fabric of America is still being woven…

Yet… we can bring about stronger unity…and weave new threads into the fabric of our country…by realizing our responsibilities in protecting one another from further and future harm…

Keeping in mind that now is the time to reform and rebuild…the next Administration must be open to doing just that…but not without the watchful voices and actions of We…the People…

So much corruption and past mistakes can be challenged and rectified…with someone who will listen…who has made mistakes…realizes their mistakes…and has the heart to admit them…and has the heart to enforce the will and best interests of the people.

The perfect politician does not exist…

Someone once said, “Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone.”

I am an American…I love America…and I want America to have the opportunity to move in the right direction to heal Her wounds…and walk Her walk once again on the path to Freedom and Justice for All…

Generations are changing…Our world is changing…Our country needs the opportunity to change with the times for the betterment of our children and the generations to come…

They are the future…only one candidate can give them that future…

I am an American…

I voted with a Blue Heart…while not perfect…while mistakes were made in the past…these candidates best represent the recovery of America for Americans…

I…for one…can see things as they are…

How easy it would be to just look the other way…

Many died to give me the freedom to Vote…

I’ll never defile their memories…by ignoring their ultimate sacrifices…by not voting…and choosing those who will serve with the heart of a leader…for the country and her citizens…first and foremost.

I am an American…

And I stand by the pledge in song…

Stand beside her…and guide her…

Lastly, I ask…

Who has created such limitations and vulnerabilities to America’s Democracy?

We the People…

Whenever we miss a chance to stand up…

Take charge…

And make our voices heard…

America is the promise of tomorrow…today.

I am an American…

And I will always protect her promise….

God Help Us…

The “Presidential Debate?” What debate?! It was a debacle.

God Help Us…

We must be bigger and better than what millions of us witnessed tonight.

Our country cannot…will not…survive another four years of narcissistic, Lessons In Evil Subtantiated…LIES…..

We are faced with a task of choosing what will be the best administration for our country…to heal…beat the virus…to get back to work…and to unify for the benefit of saving a nation that is clearly in danger of self-destruction.

We must stop passing the buck and stand up and be counted. We must speak up and use our voices…loud…and clear…That we will not be ignored any longer. We are the Democracy…We…The People. We cannot and must not be fearful of doing what is clearly the right thing to do for our country.

We must elect politicians who will usher in change…Who recognize that the current parties are in desperate need of an overhaul…and a serious restructuring and rebuilding…We must break the old belief systems of the past…rejecting those politicians who insist upon taking our country back to the “dark ages” and empower those who are projecting and practicing “Change.”

Our country will not withstand its present course under archaic and exclusivity politics now in practice and full swing… We will never be a great nation…or a free nation…if we continue to accept the shackles and chains that now bind each and every American…Black…White…Red…Yellow…Brown…Blue…Purple…Whatever! We must start with eliminating the “labels” and separations…and realize that we are all “Human Beings” and members of Humanity.

God Help Us…to remember that we are not the chaos and hatred that is embraced like a life-saver…it is an anchor which weighs us down…and will eventually be the death of us…all of us…there will be no survivors who are schooled through chaos and hatred….

We cannot continue to embrace darkness over Love and Truth….This time is “Do or Die” time…We must choose the light of love over the darkness of chaos and disorder…We will not survive it…our nation will go up in flames…like other once strong and rising nations…who lost their footing…and eventually perished…because they thought they were greater than what they really were…greatness without an “equitable” foundation is already a foundation crumbling….

After what was witnessed tonight…We must invest in Truth…Justice…Unity…We The People….The salvation of our country is in our hands…Vote…You will and can change the present course of our country…

The greatness of America…is Her people…

God Help Us…

To realize that.

A Stark Reminder…Time To Step Up…

I first wrote this post to Facebook on February 21, 2017…It has served to be a continuing prophecy to date. I am reposting it here to remind everyone that we must be vigilant…and we must unify…making the necessary changes to truly make America great and remove the toxic waste from the White House by sending a Blue Tsunami…read on…

”Today is a new day with a very real, realization…life has changed, and will continue to change with each passing day…our lives as we know them to be are in “dismantle mode” by the present regime that has taken over our nation’s capital and seeks to destroy and deprive us of our hard-won freedoms and humanity, while desecrating and negating the Constitution which created a path to the dream of America…It is by no means perfect, and it is in desperate need of an overhaul…but not by a deranged and soulless dilettante who fancies himself a leader, followed by a legion of mindless vessels, all too willing to do his bidding; while nipping at his heels to be favored for a chance to claim fifteen minutes of fame to push forth their own mad agendas in wreaking more chaos and havoc upon our country, and the world.

We must continue moving forward in unity…ever vigilant in keeping America the “land of the free…and the home of the brave.” We must never again cast our pearls before swine…believing that they will handle them with care and value their worth…every individual with a conscience and a heart are one of those pearls being trampled beneath the feet of the swine disrupting democracy while threatening to further pollute and assist the global deterioration of our home and planet…

Our greatness is our ability to be our best at our worst times…isolation is our enemy, and abandonment to those suffering in the world due to man’s inhumanity to man…leads us to abandon ourselves, if we abandon those who are suffering due to ignorance and self-aggrandizement by those among us who care not for the value of life…nor the privilege of choice, in doing the right thing, and championing Truth, then we are no better than they are, because in the end, Truth is our only salvation.

”Lies” are “Lessons In Evil Substantiated.” Let us not continue to substantiate the endless ocean of lies coming from the present Republican administration in support of their “Master of Lies.” Many of them have placed the “power and control” of their Party before the Nation and the People they swore an oath of allegiance to protect and serve…

Seeds of lies and corruption will never bear honest, robust fruit.  Never, ever let anyone convince you that you will survive by partaking of “rotten anything,” as you will surely perish!

Together…from town to town…city to city…state to state…country to country…around the world, continue to stand in solidarity and RESIST…at each and every given opportunity…and create opportunity to proclaim:

”You will honor We the People…You will bend to the Will of the People…or You will fall under our sword, as we believe and practice Truth…Freedom…Justice…Liberty…Human Rights…and any individual’s right to “be”…We will take up our armor of Morals…Values…Commandments…Freedom of Speech…and the Constitution of our Nation…and we will wield the Sword stained with the blood and dignity of our Forefathers…our Ancestors…our Veterans…our Mothers…Fathers…Sisters…Brothers…our Children…all Sacrificial Lambs fallen by insurgents, prejudices, discriminations, bigotry…hatred…and we will defeat you! We are the real and true Spirit and Heart of America…who were one-time Immigrants…and Slaves, who built this country…and WE are bent on healing the wounds and ceasing the pain caused by those who were here before us, and those who may come after us…We Will RESIST the tyranny of ANY person, place or thing, because WE are the RESISTANCE. We the People, in all of our diversity, the fabric of America, and we…will not stand for your virulent branding of “45” upon our Chests…Arms…Wrists…Backs…Foreheads…or Minds…Not today…not ever! “Never Again!!!!”

Since this February 21, 2017 posting, our country has endured an administration of doom…and our country is on the brink of chaotic collapse… We the People must unify…or die. Our country and our nation of dreams has called us into battle…Her salvation and future…is in OUR hands.

Time to Step Up…

Dump Trump…

2020…

Time to clean house…

Down with Destroyer Donald Trump (DDT)

Demonic Donald Trump (DDT)

Remember DDT and Agent Orange? Poison…

One Nation…Under Siege…From Within.

Don’t stand by and watch us cry…

Don’t pass by and let us die…

We are a Nation under siege from within…

Rise with courage and rush to defend…

How devastating it is to be betrayed…

By those who swore to be unafraid…

We the People…energize each other…

Unify… strengthen, reinforce the  tie…

Sister to sister…brother to brother…

Let us not utter a sigh!

We are all Liberty’s Children… and she taught us well…

Let’s send that sonofabitch running… back to Hell!

One Nation under siege… from within….

Coveting “pussies” is not our trend!

Be gone, to parties whose loyalties are to none!

Be gone to wolves, who masquerade as “one”…

Turning on their own…Ocasio, you havin’ fun?!

This isn’t just your fight, it belongs to us all!

It’s time to close ranks or hasten the Fall!

One Nation… under siege from within…

The weapon is Truth…that’s how we will win!

Take up your weapons and shake the tree…

Expose all traitors for all to see!

These lies are ongoing to distract our attention….

Enter division, mistrust…chaos…dissention.

Can’t you see, CAN’T YOU SEE?!!

What is really going to be?

Manipulation of the masses…. doomed to endless misery…

You’re not free, says he…

That is  Trump’s mission and legacy…

The Devil plays his fiddle….

Dance, Fools, DANCE!!!

The madman spins his riddle…

Dance, FOOLS, DANCE!!!!

Democracy takes a fatal blow to the middle…

As he aims and throws his lance…

Dance Fools, DANCE!!!

Leave your fates to Chance….

From within….under siege…a Nation dies…

Wake up, stand up!

No time for sighs…

Tear down the “Wall” that  supports the lies…

Before it’s too late, and time flies….

 

 

 

 

Coming Into Our Own…

19 Mar 2017 1 Comment

Since my last post, I have been standing back…observing…and keeping a silent and constant vigil for the restoration of our country and the salvation of the goodness that runs through the veins of many, and holds the heart of what America is truly all about, together….

We are witnessing an era in the history of mankind about to come to a close… It will come with many sensational transformations and many steps back into the Dark Ages of our nation’s formation…unless we understand the meaning of “We the people…” and coming into our own…

One thing I have noticed time and time again about human nature is some people refuse to believe what is right in front of them.  They live in a perpetual state of denial, and this fatal flaw will lead to the ultimate downfall of civilization as we know it.  At this moment, there is an “Enemy of the State” in the White House, wreaking havoc with our nation and our place in the world…and the blind quest for power and greed has overshadowed the imminent danger of this intruder!

He has come to steal, kill and destroy…and all anyone can see is the selfishness of their own pieces of agenda placed within the whole of his deceitful and scandalous plot to dismantle and demoralize democracy and the contributories to its continuance.

Every second of everyday, we dunk our souls in the fountain of gullibility spewing from some political grifter’s lips, believing every licentious platitude, as if they were promising manna from heaven…in deliverance of the now distant and unreachable “American Dream.” Much too drunk on their fodder to understand that the American Dream is not the attainment of the material, but the principles and values that give us passage to attain the dreams that we dream!

Freedom…gives us the ability to dream…and pursue life, liberty and happiness in formulating our dreams to fruition.  This is guaranteed to us by our own abilities to uphold and enforce our blueprint: the Constitution of the United States, reinforced by our “spiritual gifts” of Truth…Honesty…and Integrity.  Without these, we are just sheep going to slaughter…on the “faith-healing” of fools!

“Coming into our own” is the light switch of real democracy! We the people give meaning to laws, government, and any “body” of any kind that needs the presence and cooperation of “people” to make them viable and operable…without “we the people” in full understanding of our being to make anything “work”, everything would come to a full halt!  Lies…manipulation…promises…smoke and mirrors are all tools to keep we the people from realizing the real and true power of democracy!

Coming into our own has been a slow and painful process of discovery and truth…however, lights are coming on everywhere, and we must not step back into the darkness, or let #45 and his minions continue to dismantle our democracy with their lies…manipulation…promises…deceptions…smoke and mirrors…distractions…demoralizations…character assassinations and talks of walls and bans!

This is not leadership, nor is it the “American Way” of the good in those of us that understand what the ideal of America is all about.  It is that good that has penetrated the darkness of those who still don’t get America…such a great loss for them! They will implode on their darkness, as long as we continue and strive in… coming into our own!

a day
