suaveNow Playing: Guess Who's Back
People' I know I've been a way for a while. My fault I had a little slip up there but I'm back. At a later date ( might be today) I'll probably catch yall up on those couple Journal Entries that yall missed. They are actually really good. When I get the time I'll put them up. But for now I'm going to deal with today.
Today I feel really estactic to say the least. It feels good to put my problems and the problems away and let the light of God shine on me. I fel blessed to say the least, but because I'm blessed and I'm happy it doesn't mean justice is served. It doesn't mean that there still aren't problems that need to be dealt with. In fact feeling good makes me want to come at the problems even harder. Right now people are still in March Madness phase and we are fall into the venomos trap of entertainment from time to time and I'm not trying to knock sports at all. I was just thinking when March Madness is over with we move into the Professional Basketball Playoff phase. Both are big events. I watched 60 minutes the other night. The episode was good it gave me some insight into the background of one of everyone's favorite basketball players Lebron James. After the background piece they started talking about how much money he makes from Royalties and from playing Basketball. And I'm not going to hate the player. Lebron James is a tremendous display of atheleticism. My hate is for the game. Hoe can we as a people support paying a man who's talent is to dribble a ball in a basket more than a man who's job it is to put the fire when your house is burning down. A bad night for a policemen, paramedic, or firefighter means Death. The death of himself, a friend or a coworker. Could you imagine going to work with that in the back of your mind everyday on top of the fact that your not making too much more man $30,000 per year. Whats a bad night for Lebron. He scores 40 and his team loses. He still has made more money in than one night than common folk make in a year and everybody is still alive. Just think about how backwards that is. We have athletes getting paid more than teachers, and doctors. Which do we need more. Its kind of like living in the new Rome. The Romans did the same backwards things with their gladiators. They were able to keep their people entertained and then catch them sleeping. Thats how they were able to build their empire. We need to start focusing more on vocation/career type of jobs where we provide service to the fellow man. A doctor is useful, paramedics useful, ( though good health is better) carpenter, electrician, teacher, and etc these are all useful and talented people. Why does all the attention, money, and fame just go to athletes or people who are able to act. I'm not saying that art or athletics are not important or that they people shouldn't be able to make money from having talents in those areas. But it is unjust for it to be widely known and accepted for them to get paid more money than the professionals that mean the most to us. The same is valid for all types of Entertainment. If you don't wake up soon you will be caught sleeping in a 21st century Nazi Germany right HERE in america.
