This black man's thoughts for today

This black man’s thought for today

So I’m sitting here and thinking in my favorite thinking chair in my bathroom “ the John” and just like that it came to me, that all my life people other than me have said what I think and how my race thinks. Well brothers I think I want to have something to say about that and here it goes. No I am not a typical black man and will never be and I wont stand for you calling me typical at all. We have been reinventing ourselves all the time and it took a swift kick in the groin for me to see and accept this. It is insane if you really think of it but we have done so many things in this world and still are we ready? Well the advancement of mankind has taken what we got to give and will not see tat we are not just monkeys but viable part of forward moving parts of all societies. We breathe into this world a sense of goodness that has expanded world accomplishments and been not only inventors but also deep thinking problem solvers. Are we ready? Is not the kind of invitation that should be sent out but lets go now! We have shown how we can be cool under fire and that we don’t just resort to violence as the only arsenal in our bag of tricks, we sing the angry beast away with our music and we have shown that we can love our women till death do we part.

I thought for sure that I had been cursed and that there was nothing good inside of me and eventually I would be passing this to my children and then they would do the same, well where does the cycle stop and the tides change? Thank you my brothers, the buck stops here and our future generations now have a chance to respond to the next set of lies and build up the good response to who they are. I know that for me the aspect of being black means, That I am good and I am the one who sets my course in operation and I call the way this story finishes not another man of another color. I would however like to place this on the heads of our black women the way you speak it is the way it will be, please look into the brother’s soul and practice calling you brothers good Godly things that you want to see in the brother and there will be more good brothers out there for you to chose from. The simple fact is that we need you to see us as good men and I assure you that we will try our best to live up to that. The truth is we can love with the same depth and passion as good and in some cases better than other men can, and we want to. Ask any black man if he would not like to love a sister till death and he would say yes, but it is who and how she is willing to be while on that journey.

The Footprints Great men

The Greatness of Great men comes from tiny footprints pushing a large object to their common goal,
Over a measured time.
With each footprint humbled in spirit and truth,
Echoing grace and possessing a serving heart.
As they leave behind a morel trail of breadcrumbs,
For the future generation to find
so they may make their way back to a place of safety.

This I think says it all; this is from the eyes of this black man.

It is true

It is true that I love you,
Please let me in what ways.
In the garden when we walked yesterday that was one,
Honey! I loved the way you touched my face and how genteel you spoke.
I do love you.

We disagreed and just like that we made up,
We said and some other stuff.
Then we hugged,
Yeah disagree and still before the sunset we made love.
I know you know I love you!

Love it has been my only desire, my Godly desire,
To love you and you make it easy everyday you please me.
Loving you is immense and I can’t quite the fire.
You are my life, my wife, my lover and my friend,
And I love you, no pretend.

I love you, that is the truth,
I can even smell your hair when you are not there.
Oh honey we can talk and we have been quiet,
Does not’t matter our love is strong and long.
You call me your man and we have no shame in our game,
We are still the same.

I love when you rub my cheek with the back of my hand,
And caress my hands with your lips.
Girl you lift me up and proud to say I am your woman,
Action speaks and loud too,
You never over power me, you are complimenting when you take the lead.
And when that job is done,
You gently place the rains back into my hand.
For that I love you.

I still go crazy knowing that you are my lady,
And the grandest one that I know.
You assist me with my Godly walk,
My lady I so love you!

And even now that the years have said unkind words to you,
We are still in love, and just as strong.
And so when the day comes when the clocks stop,
This love just doesn’t vanish,
I know that I love you and I made a promise.

So for now I will keep on counting the ways!
Its true I do love you.
