my // truth:: {s}



1. truth: never have I feared loved so much in my life. it saddens me that it will never be the same again. not bitter. more cautious. I hope I don't turn into a "heart-breaking boy."

2. truth: I don't hate you anymore. I forgive you. I love you. yet even still, you continue to break my heart every single time you don't become the person your suppose to be. your choices have to be better then you. you have god. use "him".

3. truth: yes, I am going through post election syndrome. so much energy put forth to make him our president, and now I have nothing to have passion for. what is next? why can't I be creative? I need inspiration now more then ever.

4. truth: BGC sucks. everyone knows it. why do we continue to use it. me included. its not all bad. I met a great person from there. I guess when it doesn't serve me anymore, it will cease to exist. that's why I'm going to facebook.

5. truth: I hate cheaters. I hate seeing people cheat. yet, I understand why people cheat. worst yet, I know I have the ability to cheat as well. that is the part of myself I hate. I don't want to be a cheater. period.

6. truth: age is just a number. maturity isn't. I respect every one's stage in there life, but at what point, do you realize who you really are and what you want out of life. if anyone can give me a number, I will store that in my phone.

7. truth: if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it. don't be mad when you see that he wants it // damaged... damaged, I thought that I should let you  know. now how you going to to fix it, fix it, fix it...  why do I cry when I hear these two fast songs?

8. truth: me not having a mustache and beard has made me so insecure. I want it back so badly. when I tell you I have no desire to EVER be a girl again, I mean it. yet I so love Olivia. I love being a man with a dick in between my legs. and its quite big to. I just say that for shock value, but it is true.

9. truth: I say I want friends, but I really don't. I have so many people I'm already cool with, why not spend the time getting to know them first? why don't I just build up the true friendships I already have? life isn't myspace, why do we treat it as such?

10. truth: I need time to breath. be still. quiet all of my surroundings. I feel GOD whispering in my ear, but I can't hear. once I start telling all my truths, then GOD will start telling me GOD's.


Inspired by JW. I inspire you to do the same on your blog or in your personal diary.

IT WAS ALL A DREAM!


If you didn't know how important I felt about DREAMS, then this is a testimony of it now. When you want something so bad, it can happen. THOUGHTS and WORDS are powerful! Dr. King put something out into the universe, and this is the result of it. Our world has now CHANGED into something new, something much closer to the world we need to live in. I have never been so proud to be a black man in my life then to see Obama become President of the United States of America.

But this is so much more then him. He is now the ICON of what we as a people have been trying to uphold for centuries. CHANGE. HOPE. BELIEF. FREEDOM. These are the things that will carry us into this new world, and OBAMA has now been put as a SYMBOL of that. ART has always been a way that we record and communicate the THOUGHTS WE BELIEVE IN, and I just wanted to honor that by showcasing some of the artwork that we have created for our new President!

ONE MORE DAY...

... BEFORE MY HUSBAND IS IN OFFICE!

So tomorrow I'm taking the day office to hopefully volunteer in some way with the Obama campaign, (like they really need it in New Jersey) because what is important is that every vote counts! I plan to have an Obama Rally at my house, so anyone who would like to attend, but all means let me know!

I also found this really cool ad, that I wanted to share.



Also is some good VOTING INFO, if you don't know already...


Top 12 Questions About Voting

1. Can you wear an Obama or McCain T-shirt to the polls?
Yes and no, depending on where you vote. Wiretap says you can't be denied the right to vote but you can be asked to cover the parts of your clothing that are advertising your candidate. In addition, some states -- such as California, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania and New York -- restrict anything that can be considered campaign material within 50 to 150 feet of voting sites.

2. Are there two different election days for Republicans and Democrats?
No, despite a deceptive flier circulating in Virginia that says Republicans and Democrats vote on different days, everyone votes on Tuesday, November 4.

3. Can you be denied the right to vote because of home foreclosure?
No, says NBC News.

4. Can students who change address to vote be dropped from their parents' insurance or lose financial aid?
No, says NBC News. You have the right to vote anywhere you live that you consider your home.

5. Is a driver's license the only acceptable form of identification?
No. Except for Georgia and Indiana, you can use other forms of ID, says NBC News.

6. Will outstanding parking tickets make you ineligible to vote?
No, says NBC News.

7. Can I vote if my name is not on the voter rolls?
Yes. If your right to vote is challenged, ask election officials to cast a "provisional ballot" and follow up with election officials later, says NBC News. If you have any voting problems, you can also call the Election Protection hotline at 1-866-OUR-VOTE (1-866-687-8683) to get immediate legal advice, says Wiretap.

8. Can I vote if the address on my driver's license is different from my current address?
Yes, says Wiretap. "The driver's license is strictly used to verify a voter's identity, not place of residence. State law requires that you vote in the precinct in which you live. If you're not sure where your polling location is, visit Vote411.org."

9. Can I vote if I'm not registered?
No. Every state except North Dakota requires voters to register before voting.

10. Do absentee ballots really count?
Yes.

11. Can I vote if I've been convicted of a felony?
It depends on the state. Only two states -- Kentucky and Virginia -- deny the right to vote to all ex-offenders. Some states require ex-offenders to petition to regain the right to vote while other states allow ex-offenders to vote after they've completed their sentence.

12. Can I avoid jury duty by not voting?
Not necessarily. "There are other sources for jury lists besides voting records," says Don Wright, general counsel for the North Carolina State Board of Elections. "If you've got a driver's license, you're already on the hook," he told IndyWeek.
