Being of rich hue does not give carte blanche to half stepping, showing up late, and ignorance to economic development and social ettiquette.
The world has benefited in modern medicine, global expansion, social science and advanced technologies based on studies derived from our core existance, our ancient wisdom, and our unconscious contributions to the advancement of mankind; yet we still struggle with the pronunciation of the very treasure that sets us apart; the very treasure coveted the world over...MELANIN!
To function as a normal human being, MELANIN, must be present in the Brain of ALL PEOPLE: known as the "Substania Nigra" (Latin definition: "BLACK SUBSTANCE") without it we cannot hold memory, develop thought, or control our direction.
Yet there are people, most of whom have a wealth of melanin, that make no attempt to remember who they were, develop who they are, or gain the slightest control of the direction of who they wish to become!
Because of Melanin in the brain: under average conditions, if we were to use the ability of our brain at HALF it’s capacity (rather then the mere 8.5 %), we could, without difficulty learn 40 differently languages, memorize the extensive soviet encyclopedia from cover to cover and complete the required courses of dozens of colleges. Why then would I confine my reality, contrict my identity, and label my inability to achieve under being black?

Letting Go of Being Black
I was three feet from striking gold; in arms reach of my dream; eye to eye with the tiger; and bolding going where only the strong survive—when suddenly, one brief statement; one moment of truth; slapped me like a wet rag on a bare ass in the dead of winter! The only reaction was to let go of everything I was thinking, doing, and holding onto....
No longer will I be a "Black" Business Woman, A "Minority" Leader, ETC. I will not be so limited; so boxed in, as to be identified by the color of my skin!
I AM AN ACTIVE DYNAMIC STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS!
So as I'd labeled my actions and abilities under "black:" I limited my journey to black-ness.

Up in Twelve Hours
The only Thing that is UP, and remains up consistently, is the mind. Every other up becomes down every 12 hours completing a 360 degree turn every 24 hours for a cycle of 360 days.
she said, ANGELS live in heaven.
I asked, "where is heaven?"
UP, beyond the sky," she answered.
So then, I asked,
Where then do you propose we find the Devil? If you point down, what will that mean in twelve hours?
Just messing with primitive thinkers!
