Did MLK foresee this night? While would-be prophets co-opted by the neo-con right may mourn the evening of Nov. 4, 2008; after their many projections, proclamations and presumptions proved them to be false; and though we ought not expect any retractions from them, one wonders if one of America's last true prophets, Martin Luther King Jr, caught a glimpse of what was coming from afar.

Loves @ MindSay 
WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS!!!
Stop teasing me. you know I love you. You know if you asked me to wait I would. Why does this have to be so hard. Boy loves girl...Girl loves boy. It shouldn't be this hard. Why the fuck did you have to move on? I didn't. And when I finally do...I finally find a great guy that would take great care of me and love me....you come back and tell me that we are supposed to be together.
WHAT IF?
WHAT IF?
WHAT IF?
this what if is driving me nuts!! Why did that have to happen?
You know the wosrt thing about this? When we ended...neither of us wanted it! We were torn apart. Ripped at the seams. They talk about the one that got away and that expression was made for this situation. But, honestly, what so you want me to say?
I'll wait? I've been waiting for almost 7 months now. I wanna walk away. I wanna turn my back on you and never turn around....but I can't.
Your happy with her...and I'm waiting. I wanna love him, but my fucking heart is yours this isn't fair! Why did you have to steal it? Lock it away in your secret safe. Did you love me? Honeslty.
Answer me true
I'm tired of being hung up, on you
Don't you see
Your killing me
Just let me go
Please let go
You'll never know it
But you're
killing
me.
While perusing the writings of one of my favourite Christian speakers and authors, Brad Jersak, I came across his article at Clarion, Journal of Spirituality and Justice..
I like him very much...I love his brand of Christianity!Christ....in ....Love...Justice...Absense of Fear..Truth..
written on November 7/2008
I would suggest you go to the Clarion (link below) and take the exercise "Words of Fear..Words of Hope"...the first one you see when you open the website..
very interesting ..

Editorial: I've been to the Mountain Top by MLK
While many who claim to know Christ personally cried with conviction, 'Terrorist! Muslim! Socialist!' and told us that no true Christian could vote for Obama, one wonders if he will not only redefine America, but also, to their chagrin, redefine 'Christian' in America.
What comes to mind first is the primacy of hope and reconciliation over global dominance as the true Christian mindset. While our prophetic round tables conspire their next take-over bid in empty plans to legislate morality, we may see the godly virtues of peacemaking and commonweal get a chance to breathe for a few weeks. Perhaps we'll eventually even make some headway in a consistent life-ethic across political lines (from abortion to capital punishment; from war to euthenasia) by appealing to America's alleged humanism and equality on behalf of the children instead of appealing to the Supreme Court to make us behave.
Naive? Likely. At the end of the day, the Empire has simply exchanged Emperors, freedom and security will still trump genuine peace and justice, and Obama will do what Presidents must do: call for loyalty to his flag ahead of Christ's Cross. He is no saviour of the world or prince of peace. But in the coming days, perhaps the face of America will be a little less trigger-happy and vengeful. Maybe nations who can't distinguish 'America' and 'Christian' (including the USA) will at least begin to associate 'Christian' with a more generous and clearminded head of state.
I leave you with Thomas Merton, another true American prophet, whose words shed light on the moment:
Will you end wars by asking men to trust men who evidently cannot be trusted? No. Teach them to love and trust God; then they will be able to love the men they cannot trust, and will dare to make peace with them, not trusting in them but in God. For only love - which means humility - can cast out the fear, which is the root of all war.

I've heard the words , "I Love You", spoken. Yet i am still not sure with the fact that the persons feelings might be true. Everyone they know and love loves me, even the people i've yet to meet. I love them all too and i hope i never get taken away from them. So shall i take a chance for once??? Shall i be happy even tho others may be disapointed in me??? Shall i choose to keep smiling with one while shifting away form another??? Shall i be bold in the face of love even if it causes others grief??? Should any pain i endure be worth so much love??? Whatever the outcome i'll do whatever it takes for me to be happy for once. Even if it breaks me down and i have only a second to bask in happiness.
