                                “ The Mecca Formula and Affect” The Muslims living and not living in Mecca are to once in their lives or as many times as they can, make a pilgrimage to the Holy City of Mecca. They come together to participate in a ritual in which all Muslim sects come together as one nation of Muslims under Allah. No longer so-called separated by religious brands inspired by Britain according to lands and Muslim scholars according to theologies within Islam.  What America and Israel are producing this day in their activities against the Muslim world in terms of the Palestinian people, is the unity of the Muslim world in the way that Muhammad Ibn Abdullah (Peace be Upon Him) desired it to stay in his deepest of hearts. Thus, it is America and Israel who have assured the survival and even the rebirth of Islam as it was birthed within the heart of the Prop...

It is a true blessing to be gifted early in your childhood with a friend who truly taught you and so many other people to know of how to really laugh:) I find myself still laughing at the things you said to me when we would be in your basement racing our Tyco cars and listening to Earth, Wind and Fire:) The way that you would say things with funny facial expressions that had me choking with laughing:) You gave me joy in laughter:) Yes, David Stephenson and that I know is a real gift:) I, WE, sincerely thank you:) So many of us grew up right besides you who knew when we saw you coming or even when we were on our way to your home to see you; we knew that we would be laughing that day regardless of what happened the day or night before if it was challenging:) Your presence in our lives was and still is a wonderful impact that always causes all of us to say, "I remember when he said thus and so and I was crakin up!)" Will you be missed? Yes. We will not be able to call you...

I am certain that most hear the language of what this country asserts, is the language of the past being spoken about President Obama. The racist comments and the disrespectful assertions of his wife and his children, bluntly in the society and even within the work place/plantation.    In all of the distractions that has been incorporated into this society by way of music, sports and other forms of propaganda, there is one reality that we must accept; and that is America is a place of where only if most politically/economic privileged people are suddenly forced into the similar position reflecting those in whom they were raised to hate for no reason, they suddenly see the dream of what a Dr. Martin Luther King said was the American dream as a factor despite the color of a mans skin; and thus, they have no second thought voting a man in as long as he is promising to give them back their arrogant, perverted lives.    The root of this sudden so-called awakening o...

We, t he human family have been educated within this western world and its divisiveness to accumulate and to cultivate a mentality that divides one another according to status of manufactured living conditions. We have been made to fear being without, what we have been taught that we need each day for we to live sufficiently. We see one another who are said or understood to be doing better than we, and therefore, we suffer of our present lot because of our comparing ourselves with others and thus, a sense of envy sets inside of our minds and spirits creating a weak and sometimes hostile personality instead of focusing upon what will heal our situation. In this perception, incites an incentive in which can only be destructive to us and others who are in our lives; and we fail. In these times, we see the human family suffering and because we are felt to not being doing so well, the effort to reach out to help others who are less fortunate has become a fear factor be...

It has been revealed through the course of time that there are good men who are made to feel as though they are carrying the weight of a cruel world upon their shoulders; and they are made to feel by way of the affects verbal and mental abuse that, they are not in good company in their walk and are lost within their own internal struggles, purposely misunderstood by those who observe and are the cause of his struggles. Even though the world is upon his shoulders... He is still standing. These men are those who are destined to make a difference inside of a world order in which continues to be a parasite against humanity. It is quite common for any well intended man to suffer this plight; and he knows that he is suffering this challenge because he is well grounded in his reality. But, to his infinite understanding of suffering, is unlike those who are the cause of the initial act of causing his suffering. He sees and understands his suffering not as unjust pain and is consume...

From my coming book "Sonny." I would often have flashes of my being where I sit this moment and would not feel disturbed. This state of existence had a long time ago whispered to me to be my last state of rest. I thought that life alone and its accusation of what is free, was in itself bondage. All that I saw, the dope pushers, the church and their crooked pastors, the politicians, the lawyers ect, were all the same and yet some of them were used to send me to this place, a place for the criminals, while I saw all of my life that they were the real criminals that are created in their so-called civilized universities. They create a system that if you tell them the manufactured truth that they demand, then you will not get what you need in life. Many have to lie just in order to survive because the truth in a world as this does not set you free because the system is designed against the truth speakers. If you tell the truth, you starve and if you lie, you eat. Strange...
