Jordan, I too trust your judgement and will see the new doctor you recommended but I will truly miss you. I love you and also pray you know peace now and forever.
I know a little about gangs growing up in a neighborhood were that was going on, but I wasn’t a part of it. I had ghetto parents though, and they refused to take us out of that environment, but I always knew I would leave as soon as I could. We dealt with police harassment, so I refused to drive in the neighborhood I grew up in. I drove in other places that were better and had less police harassment. I went to live with family that lived in a better area and I attended better schools. My mom and dad weren’t proud because as we all know black families tend to focus on their wayward children more than those striving to be successful. They were not encouraging but we held parties for male cousins coming home from prison. This was my experience growing up so my aunt and uncle, who had no children, sent me to college and showed and interest my parents never did. I’m known as uppity with to my parents and although they have met Brad we do no have much to do with them. They don’t like our faith, and of course I should have married a black man. My uncle is white and my aunt told me she is an uppity outcast as well. Needless to say, we spend more time with them, and they have joined the Gnostic faith.
My faith has brough me peace and I could not ask for more. It has taught me the importance of morals and responsibility. It has shown us the true nature of the Most High and eased our mind about what happens as we take the next step in life, leaving hell behind. I am grateful and feel so blessed.
I thing the monoliths are very interesting and run into a lot of people who actually think it’s a hoax. It never ceases to amaze me how easy people dismiss things that are right in their face as a hoax but the believe bull crap like some of the conspiracy freaks who support trump.
