Can you handle the big question?

“Once I upon a time not long ago” [Slick Rick].. I was sitting in an exposition full of rich wisdom…..fresh insights….. and….. susceptible propositions but ironically the statement that would have the least significance to many unconventionally impacted me the most. Vernon Buckmon said “Anyone can be part of the solution.” . . . . .oh really?? I wonder…can ‘solution’ be a pun. Demographically, could it be the solution full of good solutes but more evil solvents that leave a filthy outcome?. . . . . Or is it the solution that will one day emancipate our society from the self-constituted filth that deprives our youth of positive advancement by confining our mindsets to only brainstorm in the filth we’ve created?...I wonder….I wonder by reading this have I affected you at all…I wonder.................Which solution will you indulge yourself in?

Paideia

Paideia is a Greek word that means education or instruction. But its the philosophy of paideia thats eye capturing. The Greeks took this idea to educate a man to his quintessence. His most true and purest form to his "real and genuine nature". This empowered their society and thus reflected in thier goverment, structure and marality of the citizens becuase everyone was intellectually sound. They knew who they were, where they came from, and where they were destined to be. It wasnt acceptable to jut teach someone what they should know and move on...that was not tolerated. They were encouraged to "fall in love with the youths they mentored." So it was love and erudition tha distinguished the Greeks from other nations and societies and subsequntly made them the prototype to many leadership structures today.

Seeing that the Greeks were people of beauty and cherished aesthetics...i would say that the implentation of this process to empower thier people was also beutiful in thier eyes........

So what's different between them and America??

Two Things

. . . . Were willfully ignorant as Obama would say. We are repeatedly encountered by wise words, philosophies, and insights..but we quickly turn our shoulder becuase we are afraid to accept that knowledge..and why...I dont know...it still puzzles me. Don't you know ignorance is not a defense. No one can ever know everything...but the wise accumulate as much knowledge as possible.

. . . . .Or We know all the information possible but wont share it with anyone. That's the dumbest thing a smart person can do. By cynically gaining all this knowledge...you are only hurting yourself. Albert Einstien once said "the value of a man is not determined by how much he recieves but by how much he gives." While refraining from sharing your wisdom you will always miss your opportunities to be acknowledged and recieve accolades for your intellectual advancement.

Furthermore to teach once is to learn twice. So knowing alot is great but not thoroughly understanding it useless.

In closing...gain as much knowledge as possible and share as much of it as much as you can. We need to empower our society to help chisel away away the enormous mountains of mishap that have ben bestowed upon us. You can start small by choosing friends strategically. You should have some have one person thats smarter than you and one person dumber than you...as dumb as that sounds lol. You want to learn as much as you can from that smarter being to level out the discrepancy between his level of intellect and yours. Then you want to teach it to the dumber one to bring him up to your level of intellect and to gain a better understanding of your wisom for yourself...remember the importance of Paideia...apply it as much as you can.

......Thanks to Cornel West to bringing this word to my attention.

The Balance of Love.

Love........



Love is a balance beam....



A balance beam with time on one side.....



And affection on another side....



Have you ever noticed that when you meet someone thats really affectionate you are quick to tell them you love them faster than you would if you met someone thats less affectionate? That's becuase your mind and body is slowly becomes programmed to touching that person, holding that person, and just being up under that person's nose. Once you've been programmed enough . . .not being with that person and makes you miss thier affection and subsequently makes your mind reminisce on the "good times.".... furthermore while thinking of that person all the time makes you miss thier affection and makes your mind saturated with the thought of thier presense...therefore..it engenders a feeling and constitutes your mind process to rationalize your bond between each other......and you come to the conclusion that your in "LOVE".



So I leave you on this note. . . If you are the clingy type...youre going to have alot of experience with "love" and thus learn alot about it from experience. BUT...that isnt the best way to find out if someone is right for you. You should take the time to see how that person challenges your intellect and how you two cope on a mental level...before you get seriously,physically affectionate. If you want to know how long it might take for someone to tell you that they love you....take into account how intimate your relationship is.

This has been a Bean Boy Public Service Announcement

Bile Boy Bean PSA....REAL SHIT!!

[grunt]... =0 ..(ploop)… “aaaahhhh”….. “WTF!!??”…Has this ever been you? Most discolorations of your Bowel Movements are normal…but some ARE deadly. We might wipe our asses see a new color and say “ooooo”…as in (YAY!! A new color. I was tired of boring brown) or “ooooo” (its time to give Doctor Op a call)…We do this repeatedly without giving any type of consideration to the causes of these affects. Well….here have it broken down for you.

Green – Usually a reaction to something in the diet: either vegetables or food additives. Experts claim that it is not unusual to get a green stool when consuming large quantities of leafy greens such as broccoli or lettuce. Certain foods and beverages include various quantities of green substances meant to make them look more appealing: this is the case with some ice-cream varieties, sherbet or even more sophisticated drinks like absinthe for instance. Even under the circumstances, you should not worry about a green stool unless you experience other symptoms such as diarrhea or other kind of abdominal discomfort.

Black – Usually relate to herbal and mineral supplements that contain iron change the color of the bowel movement turning it dark. Sometimes it could be internal bleeding which could be from bloating and lead to a very foul smell and gas elimination. Black stools usually only come a the first BM you ever have…but if it reoccurs its cool . . . . It’s the chronic occurrence that should inflict a sense of worry and fear.

Orange- Diet pills and certain mineral oils count orange stools among their common side effects. Many people following various homeopathic and herbal treatments have reported the presence of an oily orange substance in their stools. This is just fat that getting eliminated under the form of an orange bowel movement, which basically reflects the lack of bile salt in your digestion process. This reflects a bile deficiency; this would imply the incapacity of the bile secretion to transform the nutrients and can lead to the “Yellow Stage” of defecation discoloration. Moreover, the causes behind such a dysfunction can lead to a range from gallstones to irritable bowel syndrome and even cancer.

Yellow - Usually associated with a bile malfunction and the incapacity of the organ to break the nutrients you ingest. The best way to deal with the situation is to turn to an enzymatic treatment in order to bring some balance to the digestion as such. Experts claim that yellow bowel movements can indicate a serious liver dysfunction or even the failure of the organ, which could lead to a rapid deterioration of the health condition or even to death. A severe yeast infection can also lie behind yellow stools and this usually happens when there are not enough beneficial bacteria in your intestines. Typically herbal remedies and medicine, of course, heals this bad boy…but the liver is nothing to play with..you should still seek a doctor’s assistance.

White Specs -White specs in bowel movement is not a condition to worry about; they come and go usually depending on diet and they are common from a very young age to adulthood. Usually reflect you’ve been munching on seeds, corn, rice and other similar stuff .

Clear - A clear bowel movement is what we actually mean by a mucus stool discharge. Considered one of the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, this condition is often accompanied by abdominal discomfort and a changed overall health condition. Moreover, the clear stool may alternate with regular bowel movement, or be combined. Some people get a clear bowel movement after eating a certain type of food like too much fat or cheese for instance.

Blue – Fruity Pebbles and Froot loops!!! Im so serious lol….Eat a bunch of it one day…and ull see. Lol ….comment on the post if you do. =)

This has been a Boo Boo Bean Public Service Anouncement lol…REAL SHIT!!!

N.W.F.

N.W.F....stands for N[egroes] W[ith] F[utures]. This group was created because unfortunately us "negroes" seem to be belittled by society becuase of our ignorant, nonchalant peers and most previous generations. This movement is not only to prove a point that there are young auspicious black men and women but its a movement that will later in life take over the fields of lawyers, politicians, business execs, psychologist, etc.and indirectly improve the status of our black youth! This will pave an easier path for the black youths coming up behind us and beyond. If we dont step up now. . .who is!!

On another note... yes we are aware that the "N" in N.W.F. is a bit controversial. We understand if you would let a title deter you away from a critical social cause, but take a second to think of it this way. Back when slavery was in place and the civil rights movement was highly prevalent they use the term "Nigga" in a derrogatory manner to keep us under a mental bind. We actually gave into it and at times thought that our low status to America was inevitable. But look at us now....by rising above the standards we have shown amazing growth from that time period. We decided to keep the "N word" in the title becuase it marks our past and will make us aware of how far we have come and instill a drive that will 'compel us to impede further and further in the American Dream.' Don't put the emphasis on one word in the title but put the emphasis on the one mission of this movement....to rise the standards of the African American staus quo.

With that in mind...We are N.W.F......Catch on...or Catch up!

Living above the level of mediocrity

I really wanted to stray away from sacreligious literature on this blog and not not be so pious, but DAMN my pastor put it to me this morning. As many times as I’ve tried to tell people not to become complacent and always strive for more because they deserve it, I could never break it down hoe my pastor broke it down for me today. I usually use a quote from Martin Luther King Jr. but he gave it to out of a biblical perspective. He came out of Colossians 3 and spoke about complacency, strive, and strategies to eliminate both. He said many people just take detriments and don’t persevere through them. He went on to say that titles don’t mean anything! Titles only set people in complacency and won’t work to go further than what they have already accomplished. Titles only can give people time; time to go further than what they have already been accomplished. This message was so on target for me and challenged me go above and beyond. That’s why I feel compelled to share this with the people. Take this strategy and use it well.

5 steps to striving further
1. Elevate your pursuit
a. What you’re chasing after shouldn’t be the same thing everyone
else is chasing after.
2. Elevate your priority
a. Choose your priorities carefully. Set your mind on what you
want and keep them set.
3. Elevate you pondering
a. “How you think determines who you are.”
b. “As a man thinketh, so is he”
c. Get your mind out the gutter. [literally] Raise your thinking to
correlate with your aspirations not with your current state.
d. Eliminate some your attitudes
4. Eliminate some actions
a. Some of the things you do are hindering you from advancement.
Eliminate them and continue to go further.
5. Mortify your members
a. Destroy some evil innate attributes in your character.
i. Sexual Immorality
ii. Impurity
iii. Lust
iv. Evil Desire
v. Greed
b. Nobody wants something that everyone has….or had.
6. Cultivate
a. You have what it takes to get to your desired destination. Now all
you have to do I polish and cultivate your skills until you reap
the blossom. And when you do reap the blossom . . . sow another
seed.
b. The reason many people are still miserable and poor is because
they Pass Over Opportunities Repeatedly.

Unity Speech

May 16, 2009…seven days before emancipation from high school. This service was the “best baccalaureate service” people have ever been to…with the thanks of my fellow counterparts. I was called to do the scripture, but come on,…you knew I was going to spice it up a bit. Before I went up I told my homeboy Peoples, who did the inspiration, that I was going to loosen up the crowd. All he had to do was bring it home. And that’s what we did!
I came out of Joshua 6 :20 …talking about how the Israelites and marched around the walls of Jericho and related it back to unity. I challenged my class to stay connected through hard times because If we do “we too can bring these geographical detriments crumbling down like the walls of Jericho.”

“My message to you class of 09 is to stay one. As we all matriculate into our various institutions and embark on our journeys into our 2nd stage of life. Remember the power of unity. Be your brother’s keeper. Be your sister’s keeper. Remember we are SAINTS forever. Don’t become a stranger and think that you have a new life at your new school. Instead call and check up on someone every now and then. You never know how much that deposit of kindness might help that person joyfully make it rest of their day, week r even semester. SAINTS remember we are one. We are a family but more importantly, WE ARE THE BEST! For if we stick together as we encounter these trails of turmoil, hills of hardship and mountains of mishap- we too can bring them crumbling down like the walls of Jericho.”

Picture This

This has to be my favorite picture ever. Sure enough all Civil Right efforts are greatly appreciated but this speech right here snigga??...this speech right here snigga??...This speech is the root for African American Advancment. To understand why I love this pic so much you would have to watch the speech in its entirety. If you watch the speech when he rose his hand you could hear the magnitude of heartfelt sincerity for his people's advancment in his cry for equality. When he rose his arm that conveyed strength of his morality about the situation ...to get out of "proper etiquette" in front of such a big crowd showed that he could care les about the fame and conventionally accpeted way to handle things...all he wanted was justice. For that every person of every race and color supporting him with a roaring cheer. THIS IS WHY I LOVE THIS PIC.

YOU'RE A JERK!!!.......I know. =)

Okay so what’s booming right now?…..THE JERK!! It’s rooted out of California, The Bay more precisely and is slowly making its way across the nation. When I first I heard the song…I just thought it would be another song I can make a stupid dance to..again. (Video coming soon) So when I actually went on the internet to download the song…I found out it was already a stupid dance to it! So I was feeling it and bobbing my head …two minutes later I was jumping round my living room…”Jerk, Jerk, Jerk, Jerk, Jerk” GOING OFF!!! So I burned a CD with hella jerk songs and was Jerkin in my car every chance I got. If it was ever a red light????.....Bets Believe I was tearing that Bad boy up!!! If you’re not familiar with the Jerk just yet…..Check the videos out below.

Like really dog....you should read. [period]

The bible talks about living right and making wise decisions like Jesus versus living foolishly like Satan. So really. . .what makes one wise. According to Merriam Webster’s Pocket Dictionary, Wisdom is good sense or accumulated learning. Knowing this, inquisitively I dug deeper. In order to gain wisdom you have to do a lot of learning. So what is learning? Webster whispered to me again saying “To Learn means to gain understanding through study or experience.” Immediately a light bulb went off in my head. In order to be wise and powerful (Proverbs 24:5) one must do one of two things. The difference between the two is time and consequences. One can experience a situation which usually result in consequences of death, jail, or a loss or they can easily pick up a book and read. The only consequence of that is a breadth of knowledge.

If you think about it reading is a part of everyone’s culture. You cant travel, shop, cook, or even communicate without reading. Do you think the wisest among the wise got to their point of preponderance without reading or studying in some form?

Train to Change

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not a mere act but a habit.”
~Aristotle

Many people have the desire to change but are either scared to or don’t know how. Well look at it from my perspective. If you’re scared its only because you value you’re your peers opinions too heavily. I’ve learned that peer pressure only minimizes personal priorities. How much it affects those priorities is contingent upon how much you value what they think. Its one think to respect your peers and soak in their opinions but its another thing to allow it to confine you to the status quo. Don’t be afraid to step out of the box (especially if you’re taking a stand for what’s right) and change. On another note, some may not know how to change. The key to change is consciousness. For if you remain aware of what you are trying to change and apply it. . .change is inevitable. Therefore I refer you back to Aristotle. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not a mere act but a habit” Have you ever noticed when you are training a dog to sit, the only thing you can do is give them a signal and repeatedly tell them how to react to it? Sooner or later they catch on, understand the signal and abide by it. The same applies to training yourself. Repetitively teach your body or mind how to react to certain situations and soon you will see your aspiration precede.

What's really good?

“The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.”
~ Socrates

Socrates was implying that a good and evil does exist. That good is knowledge and that evil is ignorance. According to Webster “Knowledge” is a range of information. But what triggers my light bulb is the literary breakdown ignorance. Webster asserts “Ignorance” as a state of being ignorant, which doesn’t help much. But when you dig deeper you’ll notice and acknowledge that ignorance and ignorant have one thing in common, a root word! Whatever they’re meanings are, they were constituted out of the purest form of their existence. “Ignore” means refusal to notice. If you refuse to notice something then you will lack the knowledge it could offer (ignorant) which will subsequently put you in a state of being ignorant (ignorance). My point is this, Socrates was saying that there are many opinions and views on what is good and what is evil, but when you meticulously analyze every situation…it comes down to whether or not the person knew better and applied it or knew better and ignored it.

In religion….the bible states that if you don’t know better, you can’t be punished but if you knew better than you are more than fit to be punished.

“The difference between good and evil can be measured only by two things; one’s integrity but more so their knowledge applicability.”
~J.W.

SUPERHERO

If you were a superhero, what cape would you wear?

What mask would you use to hide your true identity?

What super powers you use to promote the safety of your environment?

Or would you try to make an impact at all?

Sure enough a super hero should be glorified for winning a battle or many,

But what if he never stops to consume the magnitude of the crisis in his city?

What if he overlooks the people who make pallets under a bridge every night-oblivious to the fact that there are people who care for them

What if he never takes the time pick up the unnecessary trash that only contributes to the contamination of-his community, nation, nevertheless our world.

What if there were more people like Hosea Williams,

Who took the time to feed our community.

What if there were more people like Hands on Atlanta,

Who took the time to de-weed our community.

What if there were more people like March of Dimes,

Who took the time to better breed our community.

We need more people like the mayor, senator and president,

Who will take the time to stand up and lead our community.

Is it fair that superman can fly

And be glorified

When these people stand for advancement

And be nullified. . .criticized for making the community the prize in their eyes?

Lets disdain the pessimistic doubters

And uplift the optimistic shouters

Lets shut up the advocates for our adversity

And uplift the messengers of our advancement

Lets shoot down the harbingers of our hardship

And lift up the positive voices of our hope

“All too often we accept the distance between the world
As it is and the world as it should be.
We settle for what it is now
Knowing it could be better
Even if it doesn’t reflect our values and aspirations”.





~Kudos to Michelle Obama for the quote. (Democratic Convention 2008)

Have you ever rode in the car with someone and they ride pass the unfortunate standin on the corner just asking for ANY form of spare change and the person you are ridin wit drive off or even worse deliberately lie to them knowing got damn well they have a few pennies in thier ash tray, glove compartment or thier change purse. THAT SHIT AINT FAIR!!!! Every one isnt a pan handler. Put yourself in thier shoes for one moment. . .no support....no help....no love. DAMN. Just think about it next time you see them. Help em out man. . . ."United we stand, Divided we fall" remember?



Be a superhero from a different perspective.Fight for something you believe should be better and it will only drive you to do more when you see change in its manifestation.



Standing ovation to the superheroes fighting for the safety of our nation!

Inquisitive Compassion

Patiently Waitin
So much built up anticipation
Who'da knew, your virginity is what I would be takin
So after heavy consideration
And inevitable contemplation
I can only feel honored
By the decision your making

By sexual and possibly a social hemorrhage...you must know things are gonna change.

The only thing I must ask to remain the same and sustain...is....trust.
True enough-I wanna nut.
But this is devine lust.
Even Mary skipped over it
Becuase inextricable consequences were a must.
So tell me one thing......Are you ready?
. . . . .Cuz i can see that your current thought process is heavy
Your forehead gettin sweaty
Not to mention these nervous vibrations
On your leg are steady
So i must ease tension
First let me mention
That you are special girl
I need you to trust me and listen.
Betrayal is not what I'm here for
I just wanna sustain
Can you promise if break that barrier
That things will remain?
No you cant!
Your mind is gonna wonder
Your friends are gonna instill and ponder
Then you are just gonna add me to the list of dudesThat treated you like a bumper
. . . .. . .just another chick in their "collection" that remain in thier past
To them...you were just another nice cut ass!
But know..Im not him..or them
I understand the value of your innocence
I understand what is gonna happen after we intertwine
....you're gonna become haphazardly attached
But I dont understand one thing......

Why I am willing to put myself through this again?

So let me ask you again.......



Are you ready?

Meet my Crew

Professor OgleBean

Professor OgleBean...the epigramatical jerk! Uses the biggest words that have the smallest meaning to either belittle you, make fun of you, or just be an asshole! He has 2 doctorates. One in Twerkology and one in Asshole. He's quite fond with recognizing the "end" of things. Professor OgleBean means nothing by his smartassness...he just likes to be one.

Sir Shakespear

Sir Shakespear is the one in touch deeply with the his sensitive side. The emotional sweetheart willing to give a special girl his all...if the effort is mutual.

SOCRABEAN

The deep thinking speaker. He loves to deep think...tell someone about what he's just discovered...and live with a different perspective on things. He says "To teach once is to learn twice." With that in mind, it isn't suprising that he plans to publish a book before the graduates from Morehouse College. Judging from the emotion in his vernacular and the arrangement of his syntax..many deem him to be a future preacher. But he doesnt think so...he just wants to accumulate as much knowledege as possible becuase "the power desired is determined by the wisdom aquired."

.::Jeffro Beanie::.

Bean Man is just the typical flashy, showcase rapper. He wont sit down in a studio...or pick up a pen and paper...but he will hop in front of da camera and spit somethin for you.

"Mr. Auspicious"

Mr. Auspicious is the typical go getter. Eager for knowledge..eager for ambition...eager for advancement. One word that describes this cat is perseverance....Never has he has let a detrimental factor confine him to failure. One word that doesn't descibe this cat is complacency...he is always triving for more....and for that...I love this cat.
