"Man does not do what is right. Man does what is convenient." As a(n) historian I know that is one of the most brilliant assessments ever made by anyone. "You must cultivate your brains daughter. You have to study to show yourself approved." The longer I live the more I hear that Grand Old Sage's voice. Jerome Walters was a brilliant humble man. Unfortunately his life was very tragic. He was a modern day Job. But he never lost hope. He never wavered in his faith. Then why are so many people willing to forget him, to slander his good name? Too many of his children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews are willing to forget him. They have dismissed him and moved on. Well I can't. I will NOT! I am going to holler, scream, blog, publish and tell every one I know until I find some "peculiar" people of like mind that will not permit this travesty of justice to go unreported. I did not say unpunished, I said unreported. She's been punished. She has to work out her own salvation. I can not judge her, only God can do that. Broken and mystified "she" forced me to this point. Every day that little severely abused unloved toddler that lives inside me hears; "Why Don't YOU SHUT DE FUCK UP!!! Yo' fucking black ass mouth run like goose shit by the moon light!" Severely prohibited from talking as a child I took to writing. Writing is what I do. I got good at it, so good I was honored by my teachers and schools. What did my birth mother do? She destroyed every thing I ever wrote. I forgave her and moved on. I won two fellowships to graduate school and again she inter feared. She and that "thang" I married destroyed all of my manuscripts and Master's thesis. They threw away all of my clothes, books and art. Don't you laugh or sneer, if you look closely into your life you will find some evidence of MJW's tampering or conjure or curses. She will put her "mouth-on-you". More than anyone she knows that you can wish "bad luck" on people. You enjoy your negative phone calls with her as she tears down and berates every one in the family one by one. Look at her fruit! Just because some one is given a license to "preach" it doesn't mean that they are anointed. Someone screaming loud and putting on a "James Brown" floor show is no evidence of sincerity. What is wrong with our churches? Has the Devil run the real Christians out of the Church? No, because true Church is not in a building. Church is in your heart Children. Let him in. Let him dwell there. I must say this to my little nieces and cousins. Do not believe that crap about "you sitting on a Gold mine" Your body is Holy, it is your Temple. Do not defile it. Yes you may get fifty or a hundred dollars. You may get your rent paid or your nails done, but you are a whore. A ho is a ho is a ho. You got up and washed yourself off but you are still dirty. You carry that guilt with you. You were revolted by that nasty "stanking" man that made you do something "unseemingly" for not enough money. I don't care how much money he gave you. It can never be enough. What is the result of whoring, of a whorish mentality? You hate your children. You will hate your own children because you did not want them in the first place. They were just part of your scheme. Some old haggard woman told yo ; "Gul, tie a knot in dat nigga's tail. Long as you got a baby by dat nigga he 'gon hafta gi' you some money honey!' Let us let that go. We do not have to do that any more. That is passe. The one thing we have in this Walter's Tribe is intelligence. I mean intelligence far and above the average person. Quick witted, some of us are clairvoyant, mystical. I am fifty nine years old and I have yet to meet a slow, dim witted person in our clan. I know that JR Walters was courageous. I pattern myself after him. I may not look like him but I try to carry myself like him. He was brutally honest. His truth telling might hurt your feelings but you knew he said it because it needed to be said. No, I never heard my grandfather talk about one single person on this earth. He was a "lifter", he lifted spirits. He was a giver. Every one knew that they could go to Uncle Rome at any time and "hit in up" for some money and he would not talk about you. He didn't get on the phone and call all of your relatives and tell them how dumb you were or how your lights got turned off or about how "she" had to go to "her" preacher to keep your "dumb ass" from getting evicted. My grandfather taught me that we are ALL sinners and come short of the throne of grace. I learned from my birth mother as well. I learned to become a keen observer, be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger. And if you can't trust your own mother, who can you trust? TRUST GOD and trust his Holy Book. That is the only Hope we have in attempting to navigate this mean old world. Jesus commanded us to love ye one another as I have loved you. That is why the "Evil One" uses "Loved Ones" to do diabolical evil so that we will hate them. Pray to not hate them. Understand how their ignorance and greed led them into captivity. Jesus did not tell us to hate them, he simply said "From such stay away." I am going to ask you to do three things; #1 pray that all of the hate that has been placed in your heart will be taken out, #2 "Fear No Man or thing", #3 pray during the Hour of Power (7:27 AM)
Be Blessed and "Hold youself up as much as you can."
Much Love, Peace and Happiness
