I Blame You Hattie Mea...

I blame you Hattie for giving me this life, why would you do such a thing as give me Long Beach, CA to call my birth spot?? Why would you marry that man who has that brain that now makes up parts of mine?? Why would you have another son before me who in his own way gives me advice in certain areas?? And that daughter you have...Why her?? Why give me a sister close to my age who has always shown me life thru the eyes of a woman that I can relate to?? Why is it that you've always been by me, to motivate, to parent, to teach, to guide, and to enforce?? How could you be the only person to truly understand me? Why is it that you are my path backwards into history?? My guide, my notebook?? I am what I am today and it's BECAUSE OF YOU..Thanks Really...I know the answers to every question above, even if no one else does. I know that unlike anyone else in this world, lottery or not it is I who is truly lucky. I blame you MOM, but I blame you in the BEST possible way, you may wonder why I then I'm using the word BLAME. Simple: Because while everyone else in this world only chooses to blame all the negatives in their lives on someone else and you never hear anyone thanking people for their failures, saying thank you just wouldn't be the word for all that you've ever done for me and continue to do. Plus, I know you better than anyone in this world so I know that everything that you mean and all your advice may not come out in words. But rather in sighs, smiles, those looks and damnit even when the wig comes off.

So in close I say again: I blame you mom, I blame you now and I always will...

National Police Week – Who Cares?

I just found out that it’s: National Police Week, and now I’m hoping that one of you .’ s out there joins me and  doesn’t do anything to mess it up. Don’t be the one who kills a cop this week, don’t be the one that does it by accident or intentionally , and seriously to the following OFFENDERS : - middle aged guy , DO NOT go out and get drunk this week and  then crash into a cop on your way to another bar, and a – FELON ,Can you wait until NEXT WEEK to  “pull your strap”  and “ BAD COP ”, that cop who treats what he does as “just another job” and not as a commitment to protect & serve the community. As a matter of fact I’m “CALLING ALL COPS” ,Can ALL COPS EVERYWHERE just take a break on respond to any & all calls for a week & let a real POLICE Officer take the next one ...I mean can the Police just get the chance to stop holding his breath this week? Just for this one week, I’m sure it can’t be that hard..I mean if you have to do something, keep ...

End of the Line

Where are you? Where have you gone? Why have you left me here all alone? Will you ever come back? Those are just a few of the questions that I ask myself each day that I open my eyes. WHY CAN’T I THINK ANYMORE? WHY CAN’T I UNDERSTAND ANYTHING? WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? WHEN WILL IT ALL CLICK AND MAKE SENSE AGAIN? WHEN WILL MY STRUGGLING END? WHY CAN’T I JUST BE NORMAL LIKE EVERYONE ELSE? WHY AM I SO AFRAID? WHY AMI SO ASHAMED? WHY DOES IT FEEL LIKE I AM CONSTANTLY ALONE? WHY DOESN’T ANYONE CARE? WHEN WILL SOMEONE LISTEN? WILL ANYONE EVER UNDERSTAND? My head is so full of questions, that the answers themselves are invisible… I can no longer continue to live my life the way that it is, and so I choose today, this moment, this time to put an end to way that it is. I’m tired of having to explain what I mean in order for other people to understand, I’m tired of trying to be what people expect while at same time failing to meet overall expectations. Tired o...
