Something I've been thinking about.

A few weeks ago, I went to Dallas for the first time ever. We learned about this system
called the New Jim Crow, and we dedicated our time to figuring out different ways, and methods to put a stop to mass incarceration. One of the greatest things I've ever been a part of. It's not often you get to be in a room with people who possess so much intellectual wealth. Students, and Adults alike.
It was overwhelming at times, but everyone was so nice and understanding. I was already questioning certain things quietly. Well that weekend, may have just given me some volume.

My Four Followers

I'm one of those followers. I follow myself..is that weird. It's cool. I have a few things I want to talk about today. It's been a rough month so far. I've lost an uncle, two classmates, and a cousin. three within the past week. so it's been a trying time. It's weird to think about it. These are people just like me, that I'll never see again in my life, but if I want to go a little deeper. I think about does life really end in death. Of course we have the whole idea of heaven, and hell. but I wonder if, this is just one plane in life, one level we finish, then move on to the next. I'll never be able to answer that question on here..and I'm not trying to. I am thankful that I am still here, and I'm thankful that whoever is reading this post, is reading this post.
Well..turns out that's all I want to talk about right now. That's enough. Talk to you guys later.. Just remember though. When we're down..we gotta stay up. It makes sense. Just think about it.

I'm so bad at this

Clearly I'm not the greatest blogger. It's been a while since my last post...and I know I should probably be posting something mildly interesting to others, so that just maybe I could get more followers...but I'm not. I'm posting this as an effort to learn more about myself. Something I do, that others might not do. I question myself. My motives, my actions, my actions behind my actions... everything, just to make sure I'm doing everything for the right reasons. It's weird..this journey to get to know myself. Sometimes i go on road trips with my thoughts. Maybe you understand..maybe you don't. It's cool. I just want to talk about a whole bunch of different things, but I don't feel like sharing..at the moment. Maybe soon I can open up to people..and quite possibly my computer. I've been busy soul searching, and living my life. Well..as much as I can. Until next time..hopefully it won't be 3 months from now..you might hear from me tomorrow..Wishful thinking right :) ttyl Bloggers and Bloggettes

Just some midly interesting thoughts

You ever wonder when you and your best friend actually became best friends? I know some people hav known their best friend from birth, but what about the people who met their bestfriend/soul sister/soul brother later on in life, like in college. You ever wonder when was that exact moment when you'd trust that person with your life. What was the deciding factor, for you to just throw all apprehension out the window, and decide to trust that they will keep your trust, and not break it. Just wondering

The Differences Between Right and Wrong

Late Night Thoughts *I hate when ppl say be grateful for what you have, somebody always has it worse.* Should the idea that someone has it worse than us, no matter how bad our situation may be make us feel better? That's not right. I get the whole be grateful thing. I'm always grateful, and I try to never take anything for granted. But we should really think about the things we say. "Be happy, because someone out there has it worse than you do". Someone's circumstances however unfortunate they may be, shouldn't make anyone feel better. If I'm at my absolute worse, and I see or hear about anyone doing worse than me, I would do anything I could to change their circumstance. But I guess, everyone isn't like me. Unfortunate as this may be, I may just be one of a kind, but I don't believe that. Not one bit. Good Night loves.

Running Friends

Ok, I have to explain this. I was walking to class, at maybe 9:15 this morning. A girl runs past me, and another classmate trying to get back to class. She recognizes the other girl as her friend, and proceeds to speak, as she's running. Then she asks her friend for a pencil.(she's running because she was actually taking a test in class, told the teacher she had to go to the bathroom, but really ran to her room and back). Ok, her friend says yeah she has a pencil, and takes off running to help the girl keep her pace and give her the pencil at the same time. So, this was really funny to me, and I promise there's a point to this story lol. Everyone needs a friend like that, one who will run with you. She didnt know what the girl was running for, she just took off running cause her friend needed something from her. I mean, something as small as a pencil might not be a big deal to someone else, but to me, the whole interaction was a learning experience. It was funny, and it was enlightening. If you dont have a friend who is willing to run with you, for you, or you wouldnt do the same. Maybe you should think about that relationship. And do some evaluating. Can you really call that person a friend? Now I'm not saying when you're with your friend take off running or ask would you run for me, or with me. I'm saying a friend should be willing to do that without you asking. Something to think about.

Random Thoughts to share

Soo, I just got this blog app on my droid :) and I'm trying it out. I share my thoughts on here because I'm not exactly sure how to sort them out. If that makes sense. Its been a while since I've posted within regular intervals. But hopefully now that I'm mobile. That'll change. I had a dream earlier, nothing like the proverbial "I have a dream" speech. This dream was something like a nightmare to me. It showed me something I've failed to do, something that should have been a priority, and what it is I won't say, but I'm realizing its never too late to turn things around regardless of how hopeless it may seem. The less hope you have, the more hopeless your situation. Hopefully somebody reads this and takes something from it. But nothing's over until I say it is, and I haven't said anything yet.
