I do have a past-THUG THESPIAN

Growin up alone wasn’t easy. Without a father figa and mama Just getting busy.
We was raised on da block mama earning little money aint no ravens from above to put some bread on da table.

The ghetto is increasingly becoming a fashionate thing and a cult of sorts. People are mad hectic at clamoring for ghetto presidency, smoking leaves and having beef is a hall mark of street credibility. The cool dude flaunts Baggies, the kind dat flow but don’t glow. Listening to hip hop music and having a strong affiliation to hip hop (the Cinderella of this world) is regarded as ‘being urban.’
‘U gotta be a G’2pac

I have spent so many years pimping for hip hop even after graduating from Gangsta to holy hip hop. My conscience fails me now. I don’t wanna hustle or bustle and flex a muscle, I wanna glide and ride on the wind. Nam sayin?

When the barber’s razor kissed ma scalp, I breathed an air of freedom, liberty in fact cos freedom carries innuendos. Am not saying it is bad to have cornrows and be fashionately cool. Far from it! But good has always been the enemy of best. The spiritual man and the moral man are miles apart. The spiritual man always has to choose between two levels of good while the moral man chooses between bad and good. Which side do you belong?

Ma heritage speaks of a drunken pap but thank God am free. It speaks of a dead thug who said; ‘smoke weed everyday, niggas die smokin’ but thank God am free. It speaks of growing up in da hood and learning to smoke la la at 9 years old but da devil cud not kill me even in ma mama’s womb. Heeeey! Thank God am free! It speaks of catching HIV and dying young but am still breathing. Living proof-there is a God if you need a reason.

A young heart with, an old soul. 25 years with 20 years of experience. I do have a past. I was a thug thespian. Feel me?

On Da Pursuit of Happiness

"A selfish desire for happiness is as sinful as any other selfish desire"
AW Tozer
"The sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law nor can it do so"
Romans 8:7
Lately, i bin thinkin really hard. What happened to the innocence we once bragged of? I remember growing up and how falling in love during our teenage years was for free.

A few days back i was bouncing with this really cute las whose charm overshadows her beauty. To the undiscerning, its easy to fall prey. Remember true beauty is the reflection of the human soul wen holiness is born. Never marry for physical beauty. Sometimes it's even a product of money.(Facial moles and beauty parlours). We was conversating bout marriage and how no modern gal would want to marry a broke brother. I like to say that gals ride bikes while lookin at the wheels-they dont look beyond into the future. They kinda live in the immediate(no disrespect to the ladys cos am sure there is a remnant). This is the peril of living in the immediate-They end up with the rich dude and miss out on God's dude. Co habitting has become a fashion statement, unwanted pregnancies, abortions, divorce...to mention but a few, all in the pursuit of happinerss! God is left with an eye roaming, seeking for a man/woman on the earth to stand in the gap.

Master Tozer calls this the hedonistic philosophy of old Grecian days misunderstood and applied to everyday living in these ' modern' times.

But this destroys all nobility of character in many a young person's life even if its quite the popular creed of the masses. 'That we are born to be happy is scarcely questioned by anyone'. No one bothers to prove that fallen men have any moral right to happiness, or that they are in the long run any better off happy. The only question these days is how to get the most happiness out of life. The thesis of almost all popular movies, plays and books is that personal happiness is the legitimate end of the dramatic human struggle.

Now, i submit that the whole hectic scramble after happiness is an evil as certainly as is the scramble after money or fame or success. It springs out of a vast misunderstanding of ourselves and of our true moral condition. No one who really knows himself can ever believe in his right to be happy. A little glimpse of his own heart will disillusion him instantly so that he is more likely to turn on himself and own God's sentence against him to be just.

The effect of this modern hedonism is felt also among the people of God. The las in question is a confirmed and proffessing christian-Born again at that! Our argument revealed the true heart of some of God's people. We are more likely to yoke with unbelievers at the expense of God's word and many times its under a fallacy of 'we are gonna change our mates'.(Bobi's wife)

Many a young gal has blurted; "If he can make me laugh, then i will marry him"
This has also been reinforced by the foolishness of those who propose to these gals in the name of 'God spoke to me that you will be my wife' which is boldly rejected by; "Well, He aint spoken to me yet". But the breast they put their head to grin is not God's either. Just because it glitters dont mean its gold.

My sweet gal, praised the man upstairs for finding me still in ashes and cheap doo rags. She said her prayer was to find a man whom she would grow with spiritually and financially( build a house and buy our first car together). Wooosh!
That did sound uncommon but time changes everything (God forbid). She went on to assert that she was happy she met me before the spotlight of journalist's comin to have an interview with a rap thespian and asking to interview his wife too.
Her faith is still untainted and am praying for the biggest miracle. God findind an unholy person in an unholy world, making him holy and keeping him holy in that same world.
God is more concerned about yo holiness than happiness cos wat use is it if u gain the world and lose yo soul in the process.

God raise up many of a like mind to shame the world!
