The Politics of Love & Life

It seems that no matter what kind of relationship you're in there's always a debate. We as humans get elected quite often. How many times have you put in a bid to be the BEST friend or transition from the friend zone to girlfriend or lover.

Find the point!

There's several things in life that I honestly don't understand. I don't know if these things are right and I'm wrong or if there is even a right or wrong in these situations. I do know that me being perplexed is never exciting....
I've blogged before about how black men are criticized for being "thugs" but society glorifies John Gotti and Robert E. Lee as if violence wasn't their means of operation as well.

I wanted to just write and not have it be a list but I think a list is in order...

This summer in my business writing class the teacher said space and graphic highlights make people pay more attention so yeah...

For Susie

During the election, there was an elect Susie campain to get insurance for the 9 million uninsured children in America. In 2007, a little boy died because his tooth was rotten. He died on the school bus, an $80 tooth extraction that his family couldn't afford.>>The article He's not the only one, thousands of uninsured children die every year from minor problems. A lot of people make $100 over the limit for medicaid and can't afford insurance for their children. So they go to free clinics and community hospitals that are always full and have long wait times. Most people without insurance go to the emergency room as a primary care doctor which sets back people with actual emergencies.It's amazing to me that people are against healthcare for everyone. Well maybe my grown ass doesn't need healthcare but children and old people do.

In my opinion, a healthy society would be more productive. If people are healthy they work more. What's wrong with that?? If this was George W.'s bill Republican's would be shoving it down our throats. I truly think those opposed to healthcare reform have healthcare & a crab in the barrell mentality. They think if everyone is granted truly equal rights the world will be filled with more Obama's. I don't see the problem.

I know social conservatives who've had several abortions. And every dumb ghetto hoe I know says "I couldn't kill my baby that's a sin" < But fucking before marriage wasn't GOTCHA! Moving along smart women have abortions far more than ignorant women. I think every senator/congressmen has a mistress whose had an abortion. And if Republicans are truly opposed to "big government" why do they want to control who I marry or what I do with my body?? You're pro-gun and pro-death penalty BUT I can't decide if I want to spend the rest of my life being a mother?? BUT you can kill someone because a jury of his peers says he should die...

The next generation

One day we'll look back and wonder what we did all this for...
There's this part of me that wonders if this election meant anything. I haven't volunteered more, I haven't been kinder. I honestly don't know anyone who has changed since the election. I'm tired of living for me. I've been so selfish and greedy and for all the wrong things and reasons. My apathy bothers me, so much so that I want a new job. I want to help people, I love helping people it fulfills me. I can't live being someone who just makes money it doesn't make me happy.

Apathy = me

Before the election I had cable. I also had this strong passion for change. Post election I'd say December 10th. I on't care. In my mind the President been black all my life... I don't feel that strong call to change the world anymore. It's pityful.
I do wanna help people. I do wanna teach a kid to read and motivate kids to go to college. I wrote an 8 pg paper in my social work class last year about how LSU should give college credit for students to go to the bottom and mentor kids. I'd love to take an hour out of my day to go to a hood school and tell little girls there are way more career options than video hoe and reality show baby mama.
I started losing my thunder and getting caught in all that me shit. Now I'm in recovery trying to get back to square one. It's the reality tv, makes me wanna have a house and a car and flippy weave and not worry about all the people starving and struggling. I disgust me.
