Ignorance Gained but Respect Lost

Goddess Morning Royals

Now I am not the one to speak on this exactly because I know sometimes I can get or be a little ignorant, but not to my elderly  Never that my grandfather would whip my ass if I ever did so.

So I took a stroll through the city yesterday once again running errands. While out I came across four elderly people. Two men and two women, can’t say for sure if they were couples or not but that isn’t my problem nor concern right now.  This is though, I spoke and only one of them spoke back. So me being me I stopped and say well I did speak you all as a whole and not just one of you.

The lady which I can tell she was sassy back in her day said I don’t have to speak if I don’t want to.  I kindly agreed and then I said this.  You all complain about how young people don’t speak when they are in the presence of their elderly and now I see why.  If doesn’t cost a thing for you to reply when someone greets you.  You never know if speaking back save a person’s life or not.  You don’t know what that person is going to or feeling.  Your return greeting could be the reason that person doesn’t commit suicide or harm someone else in the travels.  I didn’t do you no harm and it is too damn early in the morning for ignorance.  All I said was good morning to you all.  Ma’am you don’t have to be so messy this early in the morning.  I bet you this though when you need a young person whether it’s your family or not and they don’t respond, you going to wish you spoke to me without me having to say all this to you.  Now you all have a bless day and I was on my way.

This is why the children have no respect because they aren’t being taught any by those ignorant as folks raising them or just passing by them.  The Village is crying and I know why.  Please people it doesn’t cost nothing to just speak to people out of the kindness of your heart.  There is nothing gain but common curiosity and nothing lost but words.

Sending you all love and kisses #GoddessLove

I Heard The Village Cry

Goddess Morning Royals.

First, Praise THE LORD for allowing the surgery to go as well as it did for my daughter yesterday and blessing my daughter will continuous life.  Thank him for the blessing the surgeon and keeping him and his mind, body and soul in great spirits.  Bless the staff at the hospital for taking such good care of her.  Thank you Lord, thank you!

Welcome to life and love this Saturday morning.  I’m going to start a small women’s group to assist with life in general.  We will deal with issues of our children, love, life and finances.  We will build on positivity and work on entrepreneurship.  We will start small hopefully and grow into a movement of women empowering other women.

I am calling it #TheVillageCry.  We have to do something because our children, and young fathers are leaving our families to fast and very frequently.  They are ending up dead or in jail, which to me is like been wounded and no one is there to care for them.  I am starting it in a few weeks so I am making plans now this day.  I’m making T-shirts and pamphlets as we speak.  I can no longer standby and watch the destruction of our youth, which is our future.  I am looking for a space to rent until I am able to purchase a permanent space.  This movement is of the Lords because he is the one that sent it to me.  Look for it coming soon.

THE MESSAGE

As I sat down on the steps of my home tired from my day, I could hear weeping.

It was mild but still I could hear it.

At times it would get so loud I could barely think.

I got up from my steps in search of its location

I thought it sounded like it was coming from the West of me.

So, I traveled West.  No, I didn’t find it, but it was strong in that direction I could swear.

Then I return to my home, and the weeping start to form from the East.

So, I traveled East.  No, I didn’t find it, but it was strong in that direction I could swear.

Then I returned to my home, and the weeping started to come from the South of me.

So, I traveled South. Still I didn’t find it, but it was strong in that direction I could swear.

Then I returned to my home, and the weeping started again but now North of me.

So, I traveled North. I did not find it, but it was strong in that direction this I swear by.

Then I returned to my home.  The weeping never stopped but got louder at times.

It sounded like a mother, then again it sounds like a father, either way I wanted to know who was crying.

Then a scream hit me like a ton of bricks almost knocking me to my feet it was harsh.

That’s when it became clear and the sound was now just a steady cry, Why Lord?! Why?!

I had no idea where it was coming from, so I felt to my knees and started to pray with the cry.

Dear Lord

Hear our cry for we are hurting and suffering and asking why.

We want the pain to stop but aren’t sure how but we need for it to stop and now.

We just want to live in peace and walk with joy, for happiness is our goal and love is the mission.

We want to watch our children grow and nourish into families as you have planned, but the Devil is diverting your plans.

Lord we are on our hands and knees asking for your mercy.

Spare your children from the pain and suffering.

Cover them in the blood and protect them from harm.

We have suffered enough and plea on the blood for redemption and mercy.

Stop the violence that plague our communities and the loss that haunt the mother’s and father’s soul.

Provide them with strength and guide them with love so they will have the knowledge they seek to help stop the young children from self-destruction.

Be the foundation for the village needs you and cry out for you in ways that makes the heart bleed.

See the blood shed for we know it is too much, whether it is rap, murder, shootings, stabbings, or vehicular.

Know we understand and is calling on you Lord for guidance, for we are no more.

In the holy name we pray AMEN.

When I rose, I was told to bring the people together and create a new Village and so I am.

Welcome to the Village.

Sending you all love and kisses. #GoddessLove

Inspiration

Goddess Morning Royals

How can you inspire someone to be better than what they are?  You can and can’t at the same time.

To inspire someone to do something first you must know of their capabilities.  If you don’t know of their strength then you will only create a spiral of pain.  They will start to hate life more.  So when it comes down to inspiring someone or motivating to be better than what they really are, pay close attention to their likes as well as their words.  Most people will tell you what they can do well and where they have problems in their lives.  They will show you their strong points as well as their weak one.  Now it doesn’t make sense to dwell on the weak ones because that will only cause headaches and problems.  it is best to focus on the strong points first and slowly work on the weaker ones as you strength the strong ones.

If they know you are playing on the weak point they will give up all together.  So start smart and work your way up.

When the inspiration hits them hard enough some will come to you and tell you they need help on some of the weak ones but allow them to start with the ones they most want to work on first.  I don’t care if seem insignificant to you it may be the world to the person you are inspiring.  The main goal here is that you got them to work on themselves or a problem that they otherwise would have left alone.  Look at you inspiring someone to be great at what they do!

After you get them on their way watch how the movement goes from their.  It becomes contagious and they will inspire others to do the same. So Inspiration, become motivation, become stimulation and the movement is in play.  Population is growth and Inspiration is Life.  Let’s do it!

Inspiration means: the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative.  

    • the quality of being inspired, especially when evident in something.
    • a person or thing that inspires.
      synonyms: stimulus · stimulation ·

Freaky Friday

Goddess Afternoon Royals

I saw the weirdest thing today and heard the dumbest thing.

First I saw a man today with a cloak on and a walking stick.  I wanted to ask him was he an actor and getting ready for a play of some sort.  Just as I was about to approach him, another curious person walked up on him.  At first glance I thought that they were together but then from where I was standing they look to be arguing.  Now I am more curious than ever to know what is going on and why is this man with the cloak just standing around.  Yes, it is his free will to dress as he wants but this is the city of Baltimore so to me this is very weird. As the stranger that approached walks away and towards me, I had to ask him what did he say to the man.  He got closer and the anger that was on his face told me not to ask him anything.  But being me I didn’t listen to m instincts and asked anyway.

“Excuse me what did you say to that man to make him so mad?”

The Stranger: “I asked if he was in a play or some sort and the asshole said it was none of my damn business.”

In my head: “It isn’t any of our business but how rude.”

The Stranger:  “I then told him well you look like a damn fool standing her with a cloak and walking cane.”

The man to the stranger: “Who gives a fuck am I bothering you?”

The Stranger: “I do psycho.”

In my head: “I didn’t ask for a whole damn story, just what did you say to him.

Me: “Well it is crazy as hell that he looks like he is either going to bite someone or in a Harry Potter film.”

Then I just turned and walked away.  I then just walked to the other side of the street to continue to watch the man.  After all the children are emerging from school and I don’t know if he is in his right mind.  I stand in the rain under my umbrella watching his every move like I was 5 0.  I’m not sure if he noticed me watching him but if he didn’t he sure as hell didn’t care.  What he did next made me want to call the police.  He then threw the cloak over his head with his arm raised above his head and walked down the street towards me.  I just stood there because I had no fear of him.  He walked by me and looked into my face.  As he walked by our eyes locked and he spoke, and I spoke back.

He slowly crept pass me and then walked behind the bush.  Now at this point I know this mother fucker know I am just as crazy as his ass is and if he doesn’t know, he will soon find the fuck out.  I waited for him to play stupid but he never did.  I went to check behind the bush and he was gone.  How weird was that? No I didn’t look around to see where he went, because at this point it wasn’t none of my damn business, as he previously stated to the stranger.  As long as he didn’t bother me or those children in my sight, I wasn’t going to bother him.  Now on to the dumbest shit I heard today.

While strolling through Facebook today, I read and post with a video attached that said a 19 years old male was arrested for having sex with two female Pitbulls.  Now how sick and twisted do you have to be to have sex with a real female dog.  Wrong Bitch dummy!  I think he got Bitch; meaning female dog; confused with someone who is called a Bitch.  Anyway he was arrested and is charged with bestiality.  The worse part about the whole thing is the lady who dogs it was helping the young man out to get his GED.  She paid half his tiution for GED classes and all he had to do is work for the other half to being able to better himself.  She trusted him with her home and he made advances on her dogs.  She was very much hurt and in disbelief of what she watched on video tape.  How dumb do you have to be to literally spit in the face of the person handing you your future?  Well I guess not everyone is appreciative of a hand up.

Fun in the Sun

Fun in the Sun

Goddess Afternoon Royals.

While is it heaven to me, it may be hell to others.  I enjoy this weather and wish it would stay this way forever but I do realize where i live some years we get all four season and then others we only get two.

Some of you all prayed for this heat now you are complaining but not me. So while it is a great time to enjoy some of us aren’t taking care of ourselves properly.

  1. Remember heat can be detrimental to your health and can cause all kinds of problems and complications.  So while you are out please drink plenty of water and try to stay cool.
  2. While traveling I know we all seem to be in a rush to get where we are going but this time of the year cyclist comes out and enjoy riding their bikes.  So be mindful, careful, and respectful of cyclist enjoying the weather as well.
  3. I can’t stress this enough please, please be careful and aware of our children who are walking, running, play and trying to be children.  While they may know better than to be playing in the streets they aren’t being as mindful as they can be and they aren’t watching as they should. So if you are driving, walking, or just sitting out enjoying your day, please watch out for the children.
  4. Well it’s the law and I shouldn’t have to speak on it but I guess I will.  If you are texting, going live, or snapping pics while you are driving then you aren’t paying attention to the children, cyclist or the other motorist on the road.  At this point you are an accident waiting happen. It is sad to say and even sadder to witness.

I am not going to bore you with all the precautionary measure to take but I will tell you to enjoy life and the people around you.  Remember everyone deserve to life and have just as much fun as you, don’t destroy theirs by thinking yours is more important.

With that being said, sending you all love and kisses.  #GoddessLove

Making Your Mark on this World

Goddess morning Royals.  First I need to address a mistake I made yesterday but not paying my respects to the woman who have a great hand in raising me.  Happy Belated Birthday to my Grandma Mildred Moore, may you continue to Walk with the Lord.  Also sending love and birthday wishes to my twin cousins, Anthony and Antoine Moore.  Enjoy fellows and may the Lord bless you with many more.

Now down to business.  I wasn’t sure what title fit these post so if you think I need to change it say so.  These thoughts woke me out of my sleep so this post is actually being written at 12:25 am.  Anyway, we as parents, as people of color needs to learn how to use our voices to be heard.  We don’t speak up for the things we want, as well as the things we need.  We need to speak even louder for those who have no voice and scream if you have to for those who have a voice but are special and will not be heard.  We are their advocates and if we don’t speak, scream and fight for what they need our future and theirs are even more lost then what we face at this moment in time.

We tend not to want to fight so we don’t rock the boat but sometimes the boat needs to be rocked in fact it needs to be tilted the hell over.  If we don’t show them you are their strength then they will show us.   If we don’t show them respect, how can they display it.  If we don’t show them At this moment that is what they are showing us but they are doing it wrong and who are allowing it, us.  They are killing one another at an alarming rate and if you think that the government is going to really step in you are clearly mistaken.  To them all they see is savages doing exactly what savages do, destroy, kill, be destructive, display their ignorance amongst other things.  If we don’t show them peace, how can they live in it.  If we don’t show them love, how can they give it.  If we don’t show them a better way, they surely will make one, even if it isn’t better.  If we don’t bring peace to them now how can we say rest in it later, if they damn sure didn’t live in!  I am not a great fan of violence but I will fight when I have to, so I don’t allow people to put me in that predicament.

If you don’t back yourself in the corner than there is not reason to feel like you have to come out swinging.  Take pride in what you have to offer this world, because when we show weakness is when they strike.  Get that fear out of your heart for what you fear is what you think you cannot have or believe that you should not have.  When you speak fear in existence then it shows in everything you do and it becomes failure.  Not all failures are disappointing some are just lessons that you did something wrong and should go back and correct it.  When we allow the failure to defeat us is when we have allowed fear to take over and we dare to try again.  That is that weakness showing its ugly head and we break into a daily routine.  Just to keep ourselves from trying again.  Yeah I know it was scary but not living is even scarier, not fulfilling a dream is horrifying, not learning from mistakes is devastating.

Don’t be that person because we show the children that fear and then they take matters into their own hands.  Without knowing what is really going on, they by all means necessary, become our protectors but that is in reverse.  We know it but our fears are now what we are using as excuses, shields, and barriers to keep us from getting hurt again.  In all retrospect that isn’t the way, we have to take back that fear and raise our children properly, efficiently, productively, spiritually, mentally, and physically, with love, respect, determination, and patience.  We as parents aren’t doing that anymore we are allowing the streets and the system to do it and frankly have the audacity to get upset when they aren’t doing such a great job.  HELLO, they are doing your job.  STEP UP AND DO YOUR OWN JOB.  YOU MADE THEM THEN YOU SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THEM BY ALL MEANS NECESSARY.  If the children can adopt this concept why the hell can’t we.  Because of fear the system will not allow us to do so.  So we give up and allow the system to have their way.  I’ll be damn!  The system didn’t go through my hours of labor, nor was they there for my time of pleasure.

I am going to stop here because I have too much to say on the subject.  I would love to hear you feed back on this one.  Am I wrong or do you think I am just venting?

Sending you all love and kisses.  #GoddessLove

True Quality Time

True Quality Time

Goddess Morning Royals.  This is for everyone, no one is excluded from this post.

What does Quality Time mean to you?

Quality time is so very precious that most people miss it so much when someone who they love is gone.  So when you are spending quality time with someone or a group of people.  No one should be in their phone or on social media, because that isn’t spending quality time with other that is just advertising time in the same space with others.

Quality time is conversing and getting updates on what is going on in the person or people you have chosen to spend this time with life.  Quality time isn’t about being in the same space with someone but ignoring them or just watching television with them.  Even if you are watching a movie, show or whatever, if there is not discussion afterwards then you all just were in the same place at the same time. STILL NOT QUALITY TIME.

Understanding how to relate to people when you are in the same place at the same time and conversing is the key.  People overlook communication so much that they think texting while in the same room is cute more or less communication but it isn’t.  Sorry verbalization is how children and other learn to express themselves and you taking the time out to understand and give feed back is spending time with someone.  NOT ARGUING EVEN THOUGH THAT IS A FORM OF COMMUNICATION.

I am not referring to arguing.  If you notice or not most arguments now days come from you not paying attention to the person or people who is right there expressing themselves to you and you are doing everything but giving them your undivided attention.  THAT’S PLAN RUDE!

Get it together people before you have to use those words that everyone hate to hear, should’ve, could’ve, would’ve behind RIP in or before if only we have the time now.  Don’t be this type of person.  We all are better than that and know how to verbal communication and physically spend time with other people.  IT DOESN’T ALWAYS HAVE TO BE A SEXUAL ENCOUNTER TO BE PHYSICAL.

So from this day on let’s all try to improve our Quality Time with one another before we have no one to spend any time with at all.

Sending you all love and kisses.  #GoddessLove
