MAD MAX with THE VISION

MAD MAX with THE VISION

I was told once that it don’t matter what I did in my life, I was destined to be GREAT. With that said I tried so many things. I tried to be a cook, tried corporate America just to name a few. I tried so many different jobs and I could not fit in. I even stressed about their business and future, all the while I didn’t make any moves to create my own future. Have you been in orientation and they are preaching about “how easy it is to move up in this company”? I laugh everytime I think about it. But as soon you start to work your ass off, they start making excuses on why they haven’t moved you up. When you question why their meetings are full of white faces their excuses become tales from a fake fireplace. I am not going to lie, I almost fell for it. Imagine falling for an abusive relationship mentally and physically. They don’t see that they wear you down. They are not trained to care for your mind and spirit. At the end of the day, it’s about the bottom line. My bottom line is fuck that, take care of yourself. My favorite line in any movie is one from the MATRIX when NEO asked Morpheus “If you’re killed in the MATRIX…you die here? MORPHEUS answers “The body cannot live without the mind.” See, the mind can be so powerful but yet so fragile and they know that. Companies love it when they can get a yes man that doesn’t question the status quo. Keep you in a box and that is ok if it’s good to you. God bless. If you are ok just being just a stat on their boards, go ahead. My dream is to be bigger. My goals is to achieve them. The VISION is clear now. The more I work on them, the more I feel the importance of my path. I LOVE writing so much. Do not let anyone change your focus. Steer clear ahead, press on the gas pedal, brake when you need to but stay the course. I leave you with these lyrics that stays on mind…

Now

To the edge I'll race
To the end I'll make it
All the risk, I'll take it
Head bang with my faux friends
We pour a taste out for the dead
This is the blood, the body, the life right now
The height right now
Might be what I need
Might be what I need
Said you wanna hurt me now
You can't hurt me now
That might be what you need

What it means to be alive on this side
(You wanna kill me now) on this side
(Don't let me down) on this side
(Down, down)
Fuck the other side
I'm on this side
I'm on this side
I'm on this side
How it feels to have arrived
I'm inside, I'm inside
Those are my n***** for life
Mothers of us be kind
To the fathers on whom we rely
Fathers of us be kind
To the mothers on whom we rely

Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah

We know you're sugar
We know you're sweet like a sucker
Pretty sweet
Pretty sweet
