If you like your space, and your privacy much like I do. You generally donât like when people, especially strangers, take the liberty of inviting themselves into your personal space. It is even worse if they are not smelling too right. But the violation is actually far more egregious than bad breath. If only you knew the power of your aura, you would be very careful who you allow to enter into your personal space, let alone actually touch you. This is a case for space. Personal space, that is.
Your aura is an energy force field that contains your lifeforce and your essence as a spiritual being, living in the flesh. It transcends your physical vessel, and perhaps even stretches on for at least another six feet away from where you are currently standing. That is why they recommended six feet of social distancing, during the pandemic. It was not a part of some vector control effort, it was all energy manipulation.
Someone who is vibrating on a lower, or a negative frequency can have a profound effect on your mood for the day. That is because our physical bodies are an antenna that transmits frequencies from the different people with whom we interact. We can pick up on different energies that people carry within their soul, whether or not we are aware of it. Likewise, we can transmit different energies out to other people within our immediate environment.
Which is why in Jamaica, we have this thing called, âspirit tek.â If one gets a bad feeling about someone they just met, they might say that their spirit doesnât take that person. âMi canât explain it, but mi spirit just no tek him.â It is a mostly archaic reference to having a spirit of discernment.
This is not something we should ignore, as we must always respect the way we feel about someone, or something. It could definitely save us a lot of trouble, and may even save our lives.
As a rule, they taught us in school that an armâs length of distance is sufficient. This idea does not work because we are all made in different sizes. The average adult in the western world has an arm length of about two feet from wrist to shoulder. In reality, three feet of personal space is tolerable depending on the circumstances, say public transportation for example. But ideally, five feet is sufficient. The question is, why do people feel the need to enter your personal space when talking to you?
There are some who are tone deaf, and as such, may feel that you will have difficulty in hearing them. Likewise, they may feel as though they wonât be able to hear you clearly, unless they get really close. This idea is plausible, because there really are some weirdos who deliberately turn down the volume. Just so that the person they are talking to would feel obligated to stick their neck out to hear what they have to say. Whenever this happens, it is a trick, and the thing to do is to disengage from the person doing the talking.
As plausible as the tone deaf theory may be, majority of the time, people really only enter your personal space because they are narcissists who feel entitled to violate your boundaries. Thatâs all there is to it. That is the time to put on your war paint. I know they taught us to undermine the importance of our personal boundaries. But believe me, it is worth fighting for. Our boundaries are literally an extension of our spiritual lifeforce beyond the flesh. And similar to word curses, physical contact can also manipulate your energy through your mood.
Apart from that, it is really just about having good manners in general. It shows the other person that you care about them enough to respect their boundaries. It also shows that you respect their perception of reality enough, that you donât want them to get the impression that you are trying to commandeer their life. As uninvited close contact is always perceived as a sign of hostility. This is especially true if they donât really know you like that.
Personally, in order for you to legally enter my aura, I must first invite you. And in order for me to invite you, my spirit of discernment must first positively receive your aura. The same is true whether you are a friend, a lover, or business associate. If you are not sure how I feel, then verbally ask me for permission to enter my aura.
Or you can start with the gesture of a handshake, and see if I accept. But whatever you do, giving yourself permission to enter my aura is the fastest way towards earning yourself a knuckle sandwich. Especially if you sneak up on me from behind. Planes, trains and elevators are rare exceptions. Adeu!
There is an old saying; âhell hath no fury quite like the scorn of a woman.â It really is true. But the real question is, what have I done to deserve their scorn?
While attending high school in Jamaica, I never had much luck talking to girls. They would always give me mixed signals, lead me on, and waste my time. Before ultimately rejecting me over something as shallow and minuscule as my weight, in favor of dating thugs and idiots.
During my early twenties, I lived in a Brooklyn ghetto, where a majority of people had more or less the same type of mentality, but in a different form. Not long after, I decided that her juice is just not worth the squeeze, and resigned myself to a life of bachelorhood.
Eventually, I moved to Los Angeles, where I enjoyed a few good years of privacy as a reclusive bachelor. About one year, and a half into my new life, I started to notice that women were staring at me in public. They were not smiling, or being respectful in the way they express interest, like they do with other guys. They would just stand there, staring silently. Some of them actually looked crossed.
At this point, I was just about turning 30, and didnât want to waste any more time on false leads. I already developed a complex where I feel like they wouldnât like me. So, I figured I would save us both the trouble by avoiding contact altogether. But to my surprise, that is when they would approach me. Is it my age, or location? Perhaps a little of both?
Why are they approaching me now, after I have already made up my mind to avoid contact with any of them? They donât want you when you are chasing them. But as soon as you either settle down and go steady, or call it quits, that is when they suddenly decide that they want to push themselves onto you. What the hell is wrong with people?
If only their interest in me was genuine, but I am sure itâs not. Many of them only wanted to lead me on, just so they could shoot me down when I chased them. When I didnât chase them, they found more subtle ways to reject me regardless. For example, they might fix their hair with their left hand after I have already seen them write with their right hand. They only use their left hand whenever I am around, just to make sure I see the ring.
Another nasty tactic of theirs would be to act like they are searching for something on their phones. Making sure to come across a picture they took with some guy they want me to assume is their boyfriend. And after my final job in New York dealing with bitchy colleagues, I figured that I just about had it up to here with women. I am not through with them, but I am also not going to chase them, you can be certain of that.
Those mean tactics really used to get to me in my twenties. But now I cannot help but to laugh at how pathetic they all are. Imagine having to resort to using the allure of platonic conversation, to lure someone who is clearly NOT interested, into a rejection trap. That is how deep it runs with them. Are you able to trust a creature such as this? If she can set you up for unwarranted rejection, she can also set you up to get robbed and shot. I already told you that her poison juice is not worth the squeeze.
I accept that thatâs just the way they are. It would be bad enough if she doesnât like me, I donât like her either, and we simply leave it at that. It would be bad enough like I said. And at this point, it would actually be kind of cool to be honest. But do you know what really puzzles me? Why do they stare at someone they neither like, nor respect? Here is my theory.
Women tend to compartmentalize different men in their heads based on several factors, such as money, status, and physical appearance. Whether or not they know they are compartmentalizing you, that is exactly what they are doing. Now, me personally? I am a large black man. Not only that but, letâs just say that there is more of me to love. Oh yea, one more thing. I am not a stupid ghetto thug out here acting a fool. Those factors alone would make me instantly unattractive to ghetto girls, and worthy only of mockery in their eyes.
If there is one thing you should know about me, it is that I, B. Lorenzo Buckinchere, do not kowtow to societal expectations. I have my own plans for being alive, and I wasnât born for this shit. That statement alone would be fighting words, sure to make a lot of enemies. My no-nonsense approach to life is not something I need tattooed to my forehead in order to make it known. People are highly perceptive, and they can pick up on these things. It is written all over my body language, whether, or not I was always aware of it. Not that I intend to change it, because I am not hiding from anybody.
They have created a social pecking order in their heads, and place you where they think you belong based on looks and financial status. Based on how they perceive me, they expected me to be some kind of a desperate incel, out here simping for female validation. But when she sees that I donât even notice her, she starts to worry. She worries because I have single-handedly destroyed her ego, along with her delusions, and nothing in her world makes sense anymore.
She also fears that I, who she looks down on so much, could possibly go out and find another woman who is undoubtedly kinder, prettier and classier than she will ever be. Only to come back and rub it in her face. Worse than that, she is afraid that I could actually settle down, and find happiness with someone special. And that our love will serve as a good example for a happy relationship while she is still stuck in the ghetto with the stupid derelict thug.
Or worse, as a single mother after her boyfriend is either killed, or sent to prison. She is a narcissistic attention whore who is ruled by the spirit of jezebel. The last thing she wants is for the public to bear witness to the fact that someone she considers as being worthy of nothing but ridicule can actually go out and do better than her. Think of all the other men she ridicules who can be helped by the example of my success story.
Whether or not I actually have those intentions. Those scenarios with me and another woman, is still a vivid reality in her head. They keep her awake at night, and motivate her to try and drop subtle hints of rejection in my subconscious every time she encounters me. She hopes to assassinate my future chances for happiness by shooting my confidence in the present moment.
She is further motivated when she realizes that she will; âlook like a punk out here in these streets,â if she feels like I dissed her, and she didnât do anything about it. So then she attacks me to defend her street cred, and also her ego so she can sleep well at night.
All these things, and God alone knows what else could possibly be running through her head, and all I want is to live a happy and hedonistic existence on my own terms. She can dish it, but she cannot take it. And the very thought of getting rejected herself is unacceptable to her. Sometimes, you just have to let evil people stew in their own miserable juices. Which is exactly what will happen when everything they have planned for you, backfires.
Thankfully, not all women are like that. I have been very fortunate to have met some truly amazing women these past 20 years, and in some of the most unexpected places at that. They too are outcasts, so they know exactly what it feels like to be ostracized by the world. And we have made a pact that in our world, there will be nothing but love. They help make the duty and obligation that I have to reject evil women far more bearable than it otherwise would have been. They are a beacon of light to the world, and to the future, and they have given me hope.
Continuing where we left off on my blog post from April 7, I am giving you another top 10 list of word curses and phrases within the English language that have a subliminal message you probably got used to hearing overtime.
Letâs continue without further adieu.
Job
To have a job is to receive compensation of monetary value for work performed under the instructions of another person. The word âjobâ is actually a corruption, and a mockery of the name of a biblical character who suffered a series of grave calamities as part of a bet between God and the devil. What they are really saying is that, to have a job is to be as poor as Job for the rest of your life.
Why, they have even used the word job, as an acronym for âJust Over Broke.â Whether you work for yourself, or for someone else, why not say that you are carrying out your duties vs going to your job? That is what the rich and the wealthy say. Or they might say that they are going into town to run some errands, but they will never say that they are going to do a job. So if you want a shot at being wealthy yourself, you have got to start talking like them. It all starts in the mind first.
2. Spelling
To spell is to combine a number of different letters together to form a word. But to cast a spell is to use witchcraft to hijack another personâs free will.
For example, a man who is caught in the middle of a love triangle between two women may become the victim of a spell, when one of the women decide to use witchcraft to override his free will, so as to separate the man from his wife.
Some may argue that she used her needle eye to wreck their happy home. But you are just further proving my point. In order to cast a spell, you need a spell book, and books are full of spelling. Almost as if to say that to cast a spell is to spell out the story of someone elseâs life, on your terms.
3. Los Angeles
Los Angeles is an American city in the state of California. It is a major metropolitan area that serves as the flagship city for Southern California. It is the most populous city in the United States next to New York City. Certainly the most populous city west of the Mississippi. On the surface, it seems like everyone in LA is happy, successful and going somewhere in life. This is especially true if you are from out of town, you poor schmuck.
Once you are on the inside long enough, you begin to notice that most people are actually really jealous and cutthroat. My personal nickname for Los Angeles is Los An-Jealous, because there is plenty of jealousy in Los An-Jealous. That was actually the first thing I heard in the name at age 8, before I learned the proper spelling. That was a red flag, and one that I quickly overlooked, until I actually moved there some 20 years later.
4. Fired
Fire is an element of nature that can either warm your home, or burn it down. But to be fired from your job is to be permanently dismissed from the company of your employment. On the surface, they both seem unrelated, but what does one have to do with the other? To fire you is to âburnâ all of your future paychecks.
They are basically burning down your house by burning up your money. Keep in mind that a house is just a building. But your home is the furniture, and all the keepsake items that help to express your sense of identity. Do you remember when I said that to have a job is to be as poor as Job for the rest of your life? Employees get fired, but investors go bankrupt.
5. Terminate
Using the word fire to express oneâs permanent dismissal from employment is a bit archaic. Nowadays, they are saying terminate more often. Although both are being used interchangeably. But to terminate someone is literally to kill them. Kind of like having a terminal illness. This is much worse than when they used to say, âyouâre fired,â as it is something they take very literally.
Some Machiavellian bosses will even go as far as to blacklist you from any prospect of future employment. Either that, or they will fire you behind your back to delay you filing for unemployment coverage. In this case, they intend to literally terminate you off the face of the earth, by starving you out of options, and resources, until you die. It is almost like they see your life as a game, one that they are playing to win. Whenever their ego is certain that they cannot win is usually when they try to terminate you.
6. Pharmacy
A pharmacy is a store where you go to get medicine. They used to call it a drug store. But now, drugs have come to refer to illegal substances. So they call it a pharmacy instead. But why does the word âpharmacyâ sound as if they are actually trying to say Farm-acy?
Itâs like farm, but spelt with Ph. Because a real farm produces only organic food, but everything the pharmacy sells is synthetic. Why not visit Godâs Farm-acy instead? You know, like fresh air, sunshine, crystal-clear lakes, fresh fruits, a home-cooked meal made with love, and panoramic views as far as the eye can see. It will make you feel a whole lot better.
7. Forgive
This is a big one for a lot of people. Many people struggle with forgiveness because they think it means, not only should you allow your enemies to elude the consequences of their transgressions. But also, that you should allow them to regain access to your life, so they can wreak more havoc than they already have. That is perfectly understandable.
But when you break down the word forgive, you will quickly realize that many people use it out of context. In order to scam you into giving them another chance they do not deserve. When in all actuality, to âFore Giveâ (forgive) is to fore give them over to their reprobate desires that will surely lead them down a path of self-destruction.
Fore means âin advance,â or âahead of,â and give means to deliver. If you forgive them, you âGiveâ them undeserved access to your life and your dreams. And if you forget, they âGetâ more of your energy than they already have. Either way, you keep giving, and they keep getting, which is so fake, and one-sided.
But with you out of the picture, those who were deceived will start to notice that the âvictimâ has always been the problem, and promptly cut them off as well. They say that misery loves company. But soon they will be left with all of the misery, and none of the company, and it will drive them out of their minds. The BEST revenge is living YOUR best life without them.
8. Democracy
Democracy is a political process of checks and balances that serves to limit the power of any one person over another. They tell us that democracy means that we are all âfree.â But what they didnât tell us, is that de-mock-rasee is nothing more than a mockery of our freedom and civil liberties.
This is because the only rule of a democracy is âmajority rules.â All that simply means is that, similar to an HOA, your neighbors all collectively have more power to decide what you get to store in your backyard than you do. But they are not the ones paying your mortgage, and property taxes.
Speaking of property taxes. Why would they have the power to evict you off a plot of land if the mortgage is already fully paid off? Wouldnât it be better to pay a one-time only purchase tax on the front end? This is why Millennials and Gen-Z would rather rent an apartment in the city, than invest in land that could last for future generations.
Especially since they have already made up their minds to live as lifelong bachelors, because marriage and family values get sheg. Only fast money and fast sex matters in this world. Is this what the founding fathers of the United States had envisioned on July 4, 1776? How is anyone free in any of this?
9. Freedom
Speaking of freedom, the same is absolutely true for freedom as it is for democracy. But there is dumb in Free-dumb, because one would have to be real dumb to think they have Free-dumb. Not to be pessimistic, but if you were born into a toxic family, you move to a different state. If you have toxic friends, you cut them off. If you have a toxic girlfriend, you break up with her. If you find yourself working a toxic job, you find another job. If you keep running into toxic people, and you keep meeting them on one job, or another, it might just be time for you to try your hand at entrepreneurship.
On and on it goes. But with each process of elimination, you find that there is just one more thing you might have overlooked. Eventually, you will cut off everybody else, and only the toxic state will remain. You still have to pay taxes, or else get evicted from a house that is paid for in full. They tell you that it is illegal to catch rain water on your own property. Or that you are not allowed to plant potatoes in your own backyard.
Or that you have to pay thousands for a construction permit to build a house on your own land. If your die-hard, lib-tard neighbor catches you breaking any of their weird little rules, he will report you to the city. And you best believe he is watching you, waiting to catch you âslipping upâ at the right moment. Yet, every time he sees you, he is waving hello with the biggest, most neighborly Colgate smile you can imagine. Again, not to be pessimistic, but how free are you, really?
10. The Truth will set you Free
Whenever you got caught with your hand in the cookie jar as a kid, they would always say, âtell the truth, the truth will set you free.â With that said, you probably thought that it meant you would not be punished for trying to steal a cookie from the jar if you told the truth. Or that your punishment would be more severe if you lied about it.
This would continue into adulthood, if you find yourself in a situation where you have to be accountable to someone else, such as on a job, or in a marriage. You would always admit to guilt, much to your own detriment. That is because you stayed true to what you were taught as a child. But what they did not tell you is that that phrase has a double meaning. There is some truth that honesty may lessen the consequences for your actions. But it still would not entirely set you free. Especially when you consider that there are people who lie all the time, and elude accountability.
It is actually the truth you hear, and not the truth you tell that will set you free. With knowledge of toxic individuals and situations, and the wisdom in how to effectively deal with them, you will be set free to be happy and carefree for the rest of your life. The truth you tell will set others free. And the truth you hear will set yourself free.
11. Finance
(bonus! Just for laughs)
Perkins: Caller, youâre live on air.
Caller: Hello, Mr. Perkins! First time calling your programme, sir.
Perkins: Welcome to the programme, glad to have you on.
Caller: Thank you, the honor is all mine. I am calling in regards to the two previous callers who were wasting time chatting damn rubbish pon di programme. And also as it relates to a comment that the Minister of Finance had made yesterday in Parliament.
Perkins: The Minister of Finance? Well donât you mean the Minister of fine ants?
Caller: Fine ants???
Perkins: *laughs out loud over the mic in studio* âHold on just a moment for me.â
About 5 years ago, I came across a facebook meme one Sunday evening in particular, that said something to the effect of, âYou gotta fuck witâ da ppl dat fuck wichâu, not da ppl u be fuckinâ witâ.â First of all, if your social circles resonate with memes that are written like that, then you donât need me to tell you what corner of facebook you are in.
If you donât like where you are, then you also donât need me to tell you what you need to do about it. Second of all, as plausible as it may sound, if you personally resonate with the underlying message, then you may need to check your mindset.
Here is why that concept does not work. About 3 years before that, I read another meme in which the man asked the woman, âDo you like staying stuck in your own little world?â To which the woman whispered, âDo you like feeling powerless in other peopleâs worlds?â I had no choice but to support the woman. Me! A red-blooded patriarchal chauvinist to the death of me. Imagine that!
You see, when other people choose you for their âfriendships,â they are usually choosing you for their agendas. Chances are, they already formed a clique behind your back, and chose to target you as a group for a reason you will not be aware of until it may be too late. It is most likely that they chose you for the purpose of being their friend, but they are not yours. They are only with you, but not for you. It is not going to be obvious until the day you actually need their help. Of course there are some exceptions, but they are too few and far in between. Social acceptance is a scam. Do not join established groups.
When you choose your friends, it is less likely that they would choose you for an agenda. That is because you are the one in charge, and you have the power to kick anyone out who doesnât belong there. You also have first dibs on prospective friends before any cliques are formed. And you have the flexibility to vet everyone who enters your sphere of influence.
Here now is your opportunity to form your own power circles with a handful of likeminded people who want the same things you want. Your group can be as large, or as small as you want. I recommend a small group of no more than 9, plus yourself make 10. A group of 3 is even better, the smaller the better.
My personal preference is to have your top 3 as your inner circles (friends), and 7 more as your outer circles (acquaintances). Once your power circle is formed, everyone in the group understands that group membership is closed to the public. If you make an excellent selection of group members right from the jump, there wonât be any need for turnovers. This requires superhuman levels of patience, plus being an excellent judge of character, as good people are hard to come by.
Be honest with your intentions, and demand the same from others, but do not expect it. If you even remotely suspect they may have any ulterior motives, kick them out of the group without warning. Make an example out of them. If you made a mistake, itâs your loss. Be ok with that.
There is nothing they can offer you to make you compromise on your boundaries. You are NOT to be trifled with. Nerdy white boys have provided very good examples of how to choose your friends wisely. They might be puny in stature, but their strength is in how they choose to vet their prospective acquaintances. Thank them for their wisdom, and take a page out their book.
Group members should be allowed to have other friends outside of your power group, if that is what they want. You have no control over who they choose to talk to outside of the group, nor should you care. But those friends should respect that membership to your group is exclusive to your top 10. And group members should respect the privacy of the group. There should be no sharing of notes between groups.
Your platonic friends should ideally be the same gender as yourself. For me, my power circles are ideally a boys only club. Kind of like a college fraternity. If a woman is not in my bed, or serving me, my coffee (I donât like coffee), then I have no damn use for her. I do not want to deal with the distraction of unwanted sexual tension from members of the opposite gender when the only focus in that moment should be about business and power. There is a time and place for everything under the sun.
Many Jamaicans believe that some of the all-boys high schools on the island, such as KC and Calabar, were founded by homosexual priests in the Anglican church. But I can clearly see why that concept was created in the first place.
Especially for boys at that age, with so many raging hormones being distracted from their studies by the charms of the opposite gender. There are also boarding schools in the US where the genders do not mix.
Co-eds are mostly public schools. And yet, you wonder why teenage pregnancies are more prominent in neighborhoods that are more socio-economically challenged, than it is in wealthier neighborhoods.
The homosexual theory has been debunked, and I think that some of the people who were saying that are a bit latent themselves, if you know what I mean. Because that is all they ever seem to talk about. Once again, there is a time and place for everything under the sun.
Having true friends is an awesome thing to experience. But not everyone cares about having friends. Whether, or not you care about having friends, you still need allies nonetheless. Because we know that the wars will come, and God help any man who is caught without an army in times of war.
Whether you choose your friendships, or let your âfriendsâ choose you, there must be mutual consent regardless. Same as if it were any other type of relationship. Ultimately, you are your first friend, and your best friend. Choose yourself first.
Verbal communication is very important. We need it to get by on a daily basis. It expresses intentions, prevents accidents, and gives us a clear sense of direction in our daily walk. Basic communication involves words that we often take for granted. It includes words that are often overlooked. Words that may be more sinister in nature, than what it sounds like on the surface.
If you ever wondered why your mood suddenly changes for the worse, after you woke up earlier that morning with a general feeling of happiness. Perhaps you should consider the possibility that someone used a word curse to scramble your brain. As well as to invade your energy field, whether, or not they were aware of what they were doing. Our rastafari brothers were among the first to notice that the English language is full of word curses.
This is due to the fact that a lot of their focus is on energy and vibrations. They are more attuned to how someone, or something makes them feel, than those who are distracted by more worldly pursuits. They are often considered crazy by some people outside of their faith, for a number of reasons. But perhaps they were on to something. In this blog post, I will be providing a list of 10 such words and phases, the subliminal message behind them, and safe alternatives that are more positive and uplifting for the soul.
Hello
Hello sounds innocent enough as a greeting, but listen more carefully. There is Hell in Hell-o. Basically, it sounds like you are telling someone to go to hell. Yet they taught us to say hello as a polite gesture. How twisted! Why not say Hi instead of hello? Hi sounds closer to high, so then by saying hi, they are lifting you higher, and loving you higher. That is why whenever they are saying hi, they always wave up versus waving down.
2. Morning
Morning is the beginning of a new day. They say that it lasts 12 hours from 12:00 am – 11:59 am. But it actually lasts from 6:00 am to 9:00 am, seeing as how it is the beginning of the day, and not the middle of night. It is very common to tell someone âGood Morningâ as a greeting.
But subliminally, morning sounds like mourning, which is like mourning the dead. Why are you mourning so early in the morning? The beginning of each day should be a time of great optimism for the day ahead. So then, there should not be anything in your peripherals that remind you of mourning. âWeeping endures for a night, but joy comes in the morning.â So then why are you mourning?
The Spanish word for morning is âmañana,â which literally translates to âearly.â At no point is there any reference to mourning. There are some who say âgrand risingâ as their early greeting. But might I recommend that morning be called sunrise? In which case, the greeting would then be, âhappy sunrise.â
3. Appreciate
The word âAppreciateâ has a positive connotation attached to it. It shows gratitude for receiving something nice, or helpful. Kind of like saying thank you. But did you know that there is hate in âappreci-hate?â Why would you mention a word (especially in the context of gratitude), that suggests that you hate someone who does something nice for you? Or perhaps, even the nice act in question. Isnât that ass backwards? For that reason, rasta always say appreci-love.
4. Dedicate
The same is true for the word âdedicate.â It is a word that is often used to express obligation to something, or someone. But there is âdeadâ in âdead-icate.â What does a priest say at a funeral?
Doesnât he literally say, âby the powers invested in me, by the arch-diocese of Dublin, I hereby âdead-icateâ the mortal remains of Mr. so and so, back to the soil, ashes to ashes, dust to dust,â while reading the burial rites?
So then, is it any wonder that rasta always chooses to say âlive-icateâ instead? Why are they using any word that has âdeadâ in it, to express obligation? Is it that your obligation to someone else will undoubtedly result in the death of your own free will?
5. Diet
Diet is a word pertaining to the type of food that is believed to optimize oneâs health. Diet is tied to life. So then imagine the sheer irony when I realized that there is die in die-et. Why do they want to feed us something that will make us die, like a die-et?
For that reason, rasta always say âlivity.â Because the opposite of die is live. Isnât livity a more fitting word to describe a practice that will make you live? Your livity can be any meal that you consider healthy, including some meat dishes. But the traditional rasta dish is called Ital Stew. It is beans and yams stewed in coconut milk. It is called Ital Stew because ital is vital.
6. God
When you think about divine omnipotence, you think about God. But God spelt backwards, is dog. In all of the languages that are rooted in Latin, the word for God starts with a D. Because they have the same root as the English word, deity. Only in English is the word for God, the backwards spelling of dog. Why are they trying to compare the most powerful being in the universe to a dog? Why not refer to him as a deity? Or better yet, why not call him by his name? Which is Elohim! Because, after all, God is just a title.
7. Pray
To pray is to talk to God. But have you ever thought it strange, that pray sounds similar to prey? To pray is to talk to God, but to prey is to spy and to hunt oneâs intended target like an apex predator. Why not commune with God instead of praying to him? The dark side communes with the dead to get their fortunes told. So why not commune with God?
8. Dynasty
A dynasty is a vast empire. But has it ever occurred to you that dynasty sounds like they are trying to say die-nasty? Why not say kingdom, or empire? Although there is nothing really wrong if you want to die nasty. So long as you die nasty in bed, alongside your lover. Now thatâs what I would call a knockout punch. It has been known to happen, people dying while doing the nasties.
9. Diaspora
A diaspora is an ethnic settlement away from home. For example, one might say that Miami has the largest Cuban population outside of Cuba. But if you listen to the word carefully, you can hear die-as-poor. It sounds like they are trying to suggest that you will more than likely die poor if you try to gain your wealth in another land.
The natural citizens of your adopted homeland will always be given priority treatment over immigrants. Which is why many immigrants would rather stay in a melting pot than venture out into the rest of the country. Not only will you die poor away from home, but your birth land will also be poorer due to a brain drain that is caused by mass migration. Do you remember a certain campaign speech from 2015?
âThey are not sending us their best, they are sending us their rapists and drug dealers, and some I assume are good people.â That is not always the case. Sometimes the birth land in question ends up losing their best, and brightest minds due to scholarships and migration opportunities. For the people who are able to hear the subliminal message, they choose to pronounce diaspora, not as die-as-poor-rah, but rather as dee-as-pur-rah.
10. Understand
To understand, as we are made to understand it, is not only to be told a concept by someone else, but also for that concept to register. But why should I have to stand under you, in order to under-stand you? Many choose to say over-stand, but why not choose to inner-stand instead? Seeing as how comprehension is an internal process of the heart and mind.
5 years ago on this day, rapper Nispey Hussle was murdered in Los Angeles on Easter. 5 years later, Easter has fallen on March 31 yet again. And it leaves one to wonder if the killer of Nipsey Hussle, instead of holding himself accountable for his actions, actually made up excuses for his actions by saying that the devil made him do it.
If so, the killer should have been home eating with his family on Easter, but Easter meant nothing to him the moment he decided to go out into the street and pull the trigger that ended another human life. If Easter meant nothing to him, then neither should the name of Satan as a symbol of evil. Yet he would have probably still had no problem using the name of Satan to say that the devil made him kill someone.
Whether, or not the killer of Nipsey Hustle actually felt that way, my idea of him, as expressed in the previous 2 paragraphs, is just one example of evil people eluding accountability by blaming their actions on the devil. I think this is more common than just a handful of people.
Most evil people seek to blame-shift, and project their faults onto others to escape accountability, especially in the eyes of those who they respect. We see this kind of behavior all the time when dealing with narcissists. Thing of it is, what do they do when there is truly no one to blame, lest they risk exposing their lunacy to public scrutiny?
So then they created a fictional character, gave him the name Satan, and said that the devil made them do it. But did the devil really make them feel feelings of envy? Did the devil really make them want to kill somebody? Did the devil really make them want to railroad an innocent man straight into prison? Or was it their own free will? Devil or not, they wanted to do those things, because they are just plain evil. There is no other reason for their actions. No rhyme or reason.
But the devil is nothing new. He has been around since the dawn of time. So who created him then? The very early narcissists who had re-written much of the bible to push their hidden agenda for world domination, thatâs who.
They had written the image of God as being this angry, jealous, control freak, especially in the old testament. When in fact, God has been nothing but unconditional love, this whole time. They had also written Satan into the bible to blame for all of humanityâs problems. A lot of which they had brought upon themselves by exercising their own mortal will.
Eve-vil, had eaten the apple by her own free will, then shared some of it with her husband. And only after her eyes were opened to the nakedness of her own covetous greed, did she finally say, âthe devil made me do it.â The tree was a test of the greed of mankind.
She had everything else in abundance, but that wasnât good enough for her. So she was willing to forsake everything she had, for the one thing she was told she could not have. She did not care if she screwed the rest of mankind into oblivion because of it. She only cared about herself.
They were no longer allowed to remain in the garden with their new found knowledge. Because they now had god-like knowledge without god-like powers. So they had to go up to the embassy to file for their visas. So they could fly out from off the island, and go find a job in some overcrowded melting pot within the land of babylon.
Where they are stuck working the graveyard shift in the middle of a blizzard. And under the scrutiny of a cruel shift supervisor who delights in tormenting them at every turn. All this because the devil made her do it. Men were made to suffer, and women were made to feel the pain. And all because eve-vil did not want to hold herself accountable for her actions.
To say that the devil made an evil person do evil things to the people they despise is to say that God put me in poverty. When it is in fact my responsibility to go out and find a job. Do you hear how absolutely crazy that sounds? We were each given free will, remember. That free will is exactly the reason why God allows evil things to happen to good people. Because he is not willing to use his divine will, to override our mortal will. The teacher is ALWAYS silent during the test.
God did not make me poor, and Satan did not make you hate your brother. We both used our free will, and suffered the consequences, whether or not we were aware of what that would be. The difference between me, and an evil person is that I take full responsibility for the part that I played in creating my predicament. And I will do everything within my power to correct those mistakes. May God be my judge.

If that was not the case, then it would probably mean that you possessed the power of immortality. But if you know that you will likely grow elderly, and die someday, then it means that you have been on the clock since the moment of birth, and you donât have time to waste on damn rubbish.
Time is an artificial measurement of chronology. And chronology is all of eternity without the measurement of time. Even though time is artificial, it still exists nonetheless, and we have to respect time for what it is. Be that as it may, time has its appropriate time, place and usefulness. Time may often seem to work against you. But in all actuality, time is really your friend, and it can work in your favor, if you use it wisely.
Time is an asset, just like your health, money, and education. It does not matter if the engagement in question is business or pleasure. You decide how much of your time you want to leverage in exchange for what you want. For example, time plus health equals youth. You may then use your youthfulness to achieve an education that will hopefully teach you how to wisely earn money, without selling your precious, fleeting time for a paycheck. You can then choose to invest some of the money into improving your health. So that you can buy some extra time to achieve some more of your goals before they inevitably call your number.
Unfortunately, you are more often than not, leveraging your time in exchange for money. That is not the smartest use of your time, but I understand that it may be the quickest way to make some money while you are still young. Do what you must, but understand that this is supposed to be a temporary fix, until you figure out what exactly it is that you want to do with your life. But even while working a job, you still need to budget your time effectively. Here are some suggestions for you to consider when leveraging your time for a paycheck.
There are 24 hours within each daily cycle. If you divide 24 by 3, you get 8. So there are 3 eights in a day. 8 hours to sleep, 8 hours to work, and 8 hours for recreation. For example, you may sleep between 12:00 am to 8:00 am. Work from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, and recreate from 4:00 pm to midnight. This is an oversimplified version, but you get the picture. The main problems that will arise from practicing that concept are in so far as deciding on the time to eat, and the time to commute to work.
Where will you find the time for any of those things if you spring right into work as soon as you wake up? Unless you work from home, of course. But even so, where do you find the time to eat? Afterall, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And to neglect your human need for food is to compromise your health for a paycheck.
You probably think itâs fine because itâs temporary. That is until it becomes a habit as you find yourself skipping breakfast more often. It may not affect you when you are young, but it is sure to catch up with you someday. Perhaps sooner than you think. Is the trade off really worth it?
Mornings are too early for employers to demand that their staff members run away, and leave their breakfast behind for a thankless job that will likely hire your replacement before they are able to set your funeral date. Might I recommend that you sleep from 12:00 am to 8:00 am, recreate from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, then work from 4:00 pm to midnight? Once again, this is an oversimplification of how to split your time, that probably wonât do you any justice. Ideally, you would sleep from midnight to 8:00 am, work from midday to 8:00 pm, then have two, 4 hour recreation periods on both ends of work.
Never work more than 10 miles away from home. So that not only can you potentially save on fuel. But also, so that your commute to and from work would not cut into too much of your recreation time. You should only commute no more than 20 minutes each way. This will leave you with more recreation time to do more of the things you love. Otherwise, what was the point? Do you know how many people dropped dead before they were able to truly enjoy the things that they worked so hard to acquire?
This means that overtime must also go. The time and a half that they offer you for 2 hours of overtime should not be worth your health, or allowing them to cut into your down time. All that money is already gone by the time you use it to pay off a couple of bills. Where is your cut? The solution is to work on personal projects in your spare time that will provide the financial freedom you need to retire early, and comfortably. So comfortably in fact, that nothing they offer you will be enough to make you jump out of your skin.
Respect the law of the 3 eights. Never work more than 8 hours in a single day. The only exception is if you are self-employed, working from home. In that case, you donât have to get in your car, and commute to a job, so you have more time.
It is entirely up to you if that time should be dedicated to sleep, work or recreation. You can work 10 hours a day, which would take two hours off your recreational time. You can then split your 6 recreational hours evenly on both ends, or you can take an hour for breakfast on the front end, then the remaining 5 hours on the back end.
At that point, you have more flexibility to freestyle it to your preference, as working from home is a real game changer. Whatever you do, never borrow from your sleeping time. This warning applies to you whether you are a night owl, or a morning peacock. It does not make a difference when you choose to sleep. That time is truly sacred, and should be non-negotiable.
