Writing My Wrongs

Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 5

"It does not require many words to speak the truth."
--Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE

The truth shall set you free. This is the truth. When we speak the Truth, we do not need to be defensive. Truth needs no defense. When we speak the Truth, we do not need to attack because Truth cannot be attacked. It is so easy to want to manipulate or to be deceitful or dishonest. My head tells me I can get away with doing these things, after all everybody does it.

Prayer:
My Creator, today let me know Truth. Let me live Truth. Let me risk the Truth. Let me make the Truth sweet. Help me to make my word good. Let Your spirit and intent be added to by words. Let My thoughts be Truth.

I have been watching ANTM for the last 2 hours. I don’t even like this show but…nothing else is on and I keep telling myself…pack…pack…pack.
And yet…I just sit here…eating popcorn, a whatchamacallit and drinking water and downloading music from Music To My Ears. I bought myself an iPod finally…so now I have more music to add to it.
Wondering if I should just ditch everything but my books, my shoes and clothes. I could sell the rest of my stuff or give it away on CL…
I already ordered a new bed for my new home and figured I’d put current bed in the 2nd room. So…other than the bookshelf and the dining table…everything else is just trash. Including my once beloved plasma. Although, it has been fine since evil left my house. Odd that. Granted when I first turn it on, it still has squiggly lines but clears up relatively fast.
Blah!
I don’t know. But I better make a decision soon. Everyone thinks that I should ditch and start anew. But as we know, I rarely do what everyone thinks I should do. I should learn to go with the status quo sometimes.

Swifter commercials are hilarious…the one where the duster is on the laptop trying to webcam…“don’t you want me baby?” As you can tell…I am bored.

Tonight I am heading out to a spot on U Street with aunties, their friends and my cousin. I am hoping no chaos ensues. Never know with the aunties. I am not necessarily down for being social today but… I think it will be nice to laugh with them. My big booty auntie wants to shake her money maker and since I know that can not be missed…I am going just for that…lol
Packing tomorrow and then happy hour with Aunt Jackie.
