I don’t know…
I got writers block today. I have no idea what I want to talk about. All I know is that I have to say something because, well…I just feel that I have to. I know, it’s not a complicated throng but when you take a look into my mind, there’s definitely come complicating things going on in there. But for the most part, I am really enjoying where my life is taking me. I thank God for the wins and the “Losses” because they all work together for my self- development. I just try to stay focused on the things I’m working on and sometimes, it can be a little daunting but I love my life and where I’m at mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
it seems like every day there’s another hashtag of another name of a black man being murdered by police and I’m conflicted this morning. I can’t even lie. I don’t know wether to be angry or not, rebellious or not, tweet or not. I have no idea at this point. It’s like, what is the objective of it all? How long are we going to have this problem here in America? How are we supposed to live our lives freely without having to worry if this jog in about to take this morning, will be the very last jog I take? How am I supposed to trust that my son won’t experience racism at his school? Or get pulled over by police while hanging out with his friends? What am I supposed to do here as a black man, as a father of a black man, what am I supposed to do? How do we even stop this? Is there even a solution? What is it going to take for us to not feel like we are the hunted? What is it going to take to stand up for our brothers and sisters who are being pretty much assassinated by individuals who hate us? How am I supposed to deal with all of this? I’m just so hurt, and so confused and so frustrated that these killings are happening what seems to be an an accelerated pace.
my prayers and condolences to the many black brothers and sisters killed by the hands of the police. The ones who’s lives were cut short. And to the ones whose names never make it to even become a hashtag to begin with. My prayers are with you and I really hope we can slow this thing down. I really do pray for that. Much Love -Jermy
