Please just try to understand...

I love food.
Anyone who knows me, knows this.
The fastest way (and easiest) to my heart is truly through my stomach.
In fact, as frugal as I am, I'll give up money and the shirt off of my back before I share my food with you. No hard feelings.
I am who I am.

However, as the saying goes, always more than one way to skin a cat.

The best way to skin that pussy (sorry for the visual), in my case...SPORTS.

I mean....................duh.

Guys that don't watch sports are uber-gay. IMO.
Guys who can't debate sports, I feel, are like members of the male species who also wear skinny jeans and lip rings...and those gay little mohawks...smdh.

To bond with a member of the opposite sex, on any level, takes time & effort...in some cases, just communicating with 'em and finding things out by asking the right questions helps also (although...best to do this with a FINE, fine-toothed comb). But honestly, and this is for you women...if you've got your clutches on your man and REEEEEEEALLY wanna have him in the palm of your hand...be a sports fan. If you're not familiar with sports, ladies...show effort to try an get familiar. You can even take it further and be loyal to ONE TEAM in MORE THAN ONE SPORT.


Example...a scenario...
The Bears-Cowboys game was a good game...a game I watched from kickoff to last whistle, with much disdain, hurt and sorrow. But I am loyal...I'm loyal. I support my team. If you're reading this and never knew that I am a Dallas Cowboys fan, please, exit stage left. No hard feelings.....................but yeah, we lost. We lost bad...and...*shrug*...we just looked awful. I'm never as sad or vulnerable as a person like when my team loses. My heart will hurt. I'll shake my fists at the TV when I see bad plays...my blood pressure rises...you wanna see me mad??! Let my team lose over some bullshit...at this point, this is when the lady-friend steps in with encouraging words, a nice big hug...a nudge on my chin...somethin...In fact, the worst thing you could do is just not care. Or not recognize when I am in a time of need and just...not doin anything. You don't need to know that much about sports to lend a helping hand.

In fact, lending a helping hand in all aspects, is always appreciated...

Now let me clarify...
If you are a fan of a rival team, and you just wanna gloat a lil bit, I can respect that. As much as I talk shit, I can take it. Oh yeah, this is a prerequisite, if you're a female and a fan of a team that I despise...I hate Seahawks fans who hate the Cowboys, just because. lol. that aint gangsta.

I think what I would enjoy more than knowing a female who is a fan of sports, is a female who shares in my pain an anguish when her team loses. Nothing quite like having a woman spit out facts of a team, have a debate about OTHER teams, and who is knowledgeable of the game. It's easy to be a fan...don't be a gump though, and not know shit about your team. Think about the make-up lovin' between you and a member of the opposite sex who liked another team you despised...yeah, I need that lol. Better yet...how's bout buns after a hard-fought game in which OUR team lost...yeah...that anger you get when you get skimped on your check when you KNOW you worked 50-hours the week before...put that frustration and channel that negative energy into throwin' dat ass back...

I'm deviating from my original topic, but im sure you feel me.

On the other side of the coin...if I'm droppin dimes on you about sports and you just gimme the :o| face...well, cue the Electric Relaxation track by the Tribe -- "But I couldn't drop dimes, cuz u couldn't relate...ya couldn't relate...ya couldn't r'late??!"


But the moral of this post is not being with a woman who is loyal to a specific team, or who can fake the funk and show meager interest in sports I like just to get by...quite frankly, it takes more than just LIKING sports anyway...

Forreal, just be loyal. Show me somethin that'll make me want to keep you around. Sports...favorite actor...favorite rapper...something....just go hard for whatever you care passionately about. If you're willing to put yourself through the good and bad for someone or something, be loyal to it or them. Be unwavering in your loyalty, in any case, and stand by it. I appreciate loyalty. I hate flakes...

Peace. Enjoy the tunes...

Skies of blue...and clouds.

That's right ladies & gents......................clouds. The beauty of ever-changing, constantly moving, free-roaming...clouds.

Now that I've sobered up, I can focus. Thank you, Dasani Water.

Now, close your eyes......relax......
INHALE...
and exhale...smell that? That, smell of stagnant and redundant nothingness that fills a room?

The world we live in. Correction, the world that I live in.

I live in a world where resilience is frowned upon.
I live in a world where integrity means nothing.
...where its better to spend, than it is to invest.
In a world where it's not what you can bring to the table, it's what you have to offer NOW.

Seriously though...how bold do you have to be to allow someone to pour out themselves to you, only for you to shit on 'em and conjure up a lame excuse as to why they did it? I guess we can add 'justifying bullshit' to that list as well.

I live in a world where sacrifice isn't enough.
I live in a world where free-thinkers are on the endangered species list.
I live in a world where it's ok to fake it until you make it...
I live in a world where the "Easy" button is easily accessible...
...and hard-work is uncommon an unappreciated.
I live in a world where foolish pride reigns!!!
Where it's ok to look down on someone in the same boat.
Where helping someone else get to where they wanna go is...pretty much outta the picture.
I live in a world where social status & acceptance is more important than your health.
I live in a world dictated by things and people we can't even touch.
Following the trend is the norm.
Being yourself is unpopular.
And having an educated opinion gets no airplay...in the grand scheme.
Personal gain trumps all...
And being genuine, albeit a gift, is a cursed downfall...



What a wonderful world.
Don't lose hope in it.
Peace.
