Kemet Know Thyself Tour
(With regards to the title: I was thinking how Mom was all over the material by Ashra Kwesi)
Okay, so this morning I am having so many thoughts. You could say I live in a "download room" according to Amateo and Jazmine, who have also lived in my room before me. Same goes for my girl Kyle.
In any case, I woke up wanting to post a load of Disney movies because I was waking up thinking how they have filled our minds with loads of crap about romantic love. I mean, don't get me wrong- these are all beautiful images and sounds. (The first song that came to mind was one from Sleeping Beauty- Once Upon a Dream.) Yeah, notice how these images have been etched in our brains. There's nothing wrong with animation, though. Walt Disney's life purpose was to connect with the elementals and he did that brilliantly. I'm sure he influence the animators who created Krista the fairy in Fern Gully.
Anywho, I did a lot of thinking and now I'm recalling books like Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters (similar to the ugly duckling/cinderella story) and an African Rapunzel cartoon that I love love loved.
The first part of this entry was going to be a blast on men who don't appreciate their own race- e.g. black men who chase after white women. But then I got to thinking that this society is messed up anyway, so maybe we don't look at color anymore, it just hurts when people come to us with these issues (especially people older than ourselves who have had a harder time with racism in the world). So I forgive myself and others who still hold onto these beliefs. I am now thinking of a mixed friend (actually two males) who have been rejected by white women. Then they have rejected me, but it was perhaps for other reasons, although one could say to me (as a friend said recently), "Krista will realize she's light but she ain't white." This infuriated me because I don't want to live that painful reality. However, I still see men of color chasing after white women.....always. What happened to just loving everybody? If there's a pattern, hey, maybe that is what flavor you like, I don't know, but I don't want to be like that. I think there are tons of hot men from all different backgrounds and I find all ethnicities attractive. So what's the problem?
Maybe there is no problem.
I also know many men in my life that mostly like women of color. Take my Dad for instance, lol.
And there are many white men who have been attracted to me because I am exotic, or whatever.
I think people have physical attributes that are just simply, sexy. And that's okay, and there's no color involved (hopefully). Because all of these "color issues" are a real distraction to our spiritual work. It doesn't help me to write my book and think about my love interest chasing after someone else. What a waste of my precious time.
All I can say is........Rangers, we so fly - Break your necks every time we walk by - No jail, we got bars
Every body know that my crew go hard !!!!!!!!
And I make-ah bread-ah puddin' on me day off...with french vanilla coffee 'cause I can!!!
(The italian accent reminded me of this guy Scotty who was the teacher for my food handling permit -class. He was telling us funny stories of how he went to do routine inspections of restaurants, etc. and how he found people being UN-HYGIENIC. lmao. He's like, if you walk outta here remembering nothing, just remember, "hot things hot, cold things, cold, one sixty five [degrees for chicken]" hahahhahahahaha omg lmfao.
thanks to my awesome brother Kier for introducing me to jerkin'..ok it ain't dead!!! know thyself! :PP
Now I'm off to hopefully read some metu neter, do some writing, and eat my bread puddin'.
