Storm you’re going to be the man of house one day, our home is one world when you step outside those doors that's a different world different rules handled yourself like you have being schooled. I got a gem for you young King... son . As a black man in a western society you got to know how to compete, we never use our race as an excuse for not doing great things your a beast becoming that scare the bald head, I won't give you false teaching or waist my pain or scars that would make you a cripple, I went through it so you don't have to you... You carry our last name that's our brand i know your sister one will fall in love with someone if i don't kil him and change her name, you it ... you carry the brand both of you run the business. When you pick a wife pick carefully because she becomes family and thats your team ride or die...
When you aim for anything in the life we call that the line , in there world outside those doors, we don't aim for the line we aim way past the line, because they who ever they are, are always moving the line back ward to deter you from trying, you laser sharp and you hit it you go harder. (confessions of cloud walker deep sigh ) ... in some ways i feel we and when i say we i mean our generation failed you against circumstance and all odds, we let you down a little forgive we didn't know better... (sadness in dads eyes) we were supposed to be the last generation to work that works twice as hard for normal, 10 times as hard for good , 100 times as hard for excellent and almost die for phenomenal, the struggles not over we do it together our ( the elders ) wisdom your youth strength innovation and vitality... our future looks bright, never lose hope son (wink).
My teachers
say that my dad is militant my dad just says "i am just sick of
it" and slowly he teaches me what the "it" is, he say one day i
will be stronger smarter and faster than him, some times i doubt Dads a beast
when goes in . My dad on the other hand says that my teacher should
not be allowed near a classroom to teach because " he is the height
and definition of ignorant". I believe my dad all day i am 12 years old
turning 13 and i have this strange feeling that i have read more books than my
teacher. I don't always get him (dad that is) but he has never given me a
reason to question him since mom died, my dad’s not like most other men, he
smart and proud of it always teaching i wish he would stop and just be dad but
as i get older i start to understand why, he is strong on the inside and out
but he pretends to be weak on the outside he says men ego's get
threatened at strength making us a target and would should pick our
fights carefully, he has a very controlled ego and a big heart not just for us
(sky my sister and Dee second mom) but for strangers especial the weak and
broken, from what i observe most men live by the code of the ego not
compassion my dads different , dad says there is nothing weak about showing other human beings
compassion especially when they don't deserve it i personally have mixed
feelings about that, and he talks about war comming i think its close, Dad is protective some times over protective but at
least i know i am loved, he lets me make small mistakes but somehow he never to
far when real danger is close. When we were younger he always used to read to
us, when we could read for ourselves he would force us to read for hour every
day, now i just read whenever can " the price of ignorance is to high son
, it could cost us our family" i read to keep my mind soul and pockets
swollen ... Uncle BC is always saying " the games to told and not
sold".
