Choice Of Colors…Which One Would U Choose?

If you had a choice of colors

Which one would you choose my brothers

If there was no day or night

Which would you prefer to be right

How long have you hated your white teacher

Who told you, you love your black preacher

Do you respect your brother’s woman friend

And share with black folks not of kin

People must prove to the people

A better day is coming, for you and for me

With just a little bit more education

And love for our nation

Would make a better society

Now some of us would rather cuss and make a fuss

Than to bring about a little trust

But we shall overcome our beliefs someday

If you’ll only listen to what I have to say

And how long have you hated your white teacher

Who told you, you love your black preacher

Can you respect your brother’s woman friend

And share with black folks not of kin

I say now people must prove to the people

A better day is coming for you and for me

With just a little bit more education

And love for our nation

Would make a better society

And if you had a choice of colors

Which one would you choose my brothers

If there was no day or night

Which would you prefer to be right

And if you had a choice of colors

Which one would you choose my brothers

If there was no day or night

Which would you prefer to be right

If you had a choice of colors

Which one would you choose my brothers

Don’t give him any peace, hun’ if you don’t mean it!

Check out this video on YouTube:

Now don’t give him any peace, hun’ if you don’t mean it in your heart

United, we can get over

Yet we’re still apart

Cos’ every day demands respect

And to give an equal share

And until you give it back to him, there’ll be no peace

Brother’s going to work it out (brother’s going to work it out)

Brother’s going to work it all out (brother’s going to work it out)

Oh, we must all join hands

We can march across the strand in peace

(Brother’s going to work it out)

No joy where that brother’s standing unduly too long

Instead of brother turning on sister

Sister turning on brother

Now, how will you get it together being against one another?

Shoot ups, live ups, all high

Till your world is turned to stone

How you can you deal with the truth

When reality’s all gone?

Food for thought…

Boredom: Creating Nu Habits for a More Exciting Life!

 

Bored girl
Bored girl

Boredom…everyone has those moments when their brain feels like it’s going to shut down from over-stimulation, which makes for some pretty damn boring moments!

The kind of moment where you find yourself zoning out and can’t focus on anything for more than five seconds at a time?

Whereas the monotony of everyday life can be dull and exhausting, especially when there’s nothing new or exciting in our day-to-day life…

But luckily for us…

These three things are guaranteed to make any day less tedious: 

  1. food (of course!),
  2.  TV, 
  3. and Netflix!

Although, there may not always be an immediate sense of relief if we’re looking for anything close? 

It will likely happen sooner rather than later, so you might as well get started with good old-fashioned entertainment while waiting patiently.

Bored Shitless…

boredom

Frankly, over the past month, I have been bored shitless and feeling like all I’m doing is going around and around, only to return to where I started.

Despite being in a position where I can change my daily routines for doing things…it is a helluva job that I can’t ascertain.

Further…I have little inclination to shake things up and find something new and exciting to bring into my otherwise boring world! 

Creating New Experiences…

That said, I realize the only way to create new experiences and break my old routine is to liven up my life …is to leave my comfort zone

Here are a few ways to make things more interesting:Boredom

  • Go out with my friends—
  •  Get out and about more – explore new places
  • Go downtown DC and walks around the city 

Finally, I realize that taking risks is the only way to make life exciting. And the best thing about taking those kinds of chances is? 

You never know what will happen! So go ahead – try something new today, or reconnect with an old favorite activity in hopes that it’ll bring some joy into your world…

That’s what I plan to do!

Thanking you for reading…

Virtuous people often revenge themselves for the constraints to which they submit by the boredom which they inspire.

Feel a Little Bit of Inspiration2

Feel …When you face difficulties, it means you arefeel embarking on a new journey.
Never lose hope and keep going.
feel“A positive attitude generates a beautiful day, which then develops into a stunning month, which then turns into a life-changing year, which then becomes a wonderful life.”

When you want to make your life feel better and your thoughts more positive…

Remember, The grass is greener where you water it.”

When you want to take control of your life and make the most of everything around you…

Feel…Wherever life plants you, bloom with grace.”

If you want to live life to the fullest and make the most of everything around you…

Don’t be afraid to embrace life wherever it plants you.

“Don’t let what others think and expect influence your decisions.”.

Although positive thinking has many benefits, finding optimism 24 hours a day is a challenge.

Life, work, and relationships can be stressful.

To keep the flame of positivity burning inside of yourself, it’s sometimes a good idea to look outside for motivation.

Brain-child

This is your life, not theirs. Do what matters most to you; do what makes you feel alive and happy.

Don’t let the expectations and ideas of others limit who you are.

If you let others tell you who you are, you live their reality — not yours. There is more to life than pleasing people.

Love is much more to life than following others’ prescribed paths. There is so much more to life than what you experience right now.

You need to decide who you are for yourself. Become a whole being. Adventure.”

Roy T. Bennett

Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful; for beauty is God’s handwriting on a wayside sacrament. Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every fair flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

The Best Inspirational Prayer You Ever Want 2 Read

When I need inspiration to pray, which is often, I regularly turn to quotes about prayer.  Peace, Love and Joy. I hope you can find some needed strength from these words.  Thanks for Reading…Jusmee Talkin (Aka. SE)

 

 

best inspirational quotePrayer :

Lord, thou knowest better than myself that I am growing older and will soon be old. Keep me from becoming too talkative, and especially from the unfortunate habit of thinking that I must say something on every subject and at every opportunity.
Release me from the idea that I must straighten out other peoples’ affairs. With my immense treasure of experience and wisdom, it seems a pity not to let everybody partake of it. But thou knowest, Lord, that in the end, I will need a few friends.
Keep me from the recital of endless details; give me wings to get to the point.

Grant me the patience to listen to the complaints of others; help me to endure them with charity. But seal my lips on my own aches and pains — they increase with the increasing years and my inclination to recount them is also increasing.

I will not ask thee for improved memory, only for a little more humility and less self-assurance when my own memory doesn’t agree with that of others. Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be wrong.
Keep me reasonably gentle. I do not have the ambition to become a saint — it is so hard to live with some of them — but a harsh old person is one of the devil’s masterpieces.

Make me sympathetic without being sentimental, helpful but not bossy. Let me discover merits where I had not expected them, and talents in people whom I had not thought to possess any. And, Lord, give me the grace to tell them so.
Amen”
