Don't Believe the Hype: Get Your Mind Right!
Hotep, Peace and Blessings Family! This is your Brother Sneferu, aka T2, bringing more mind to matters at hand!
Let's get into today! With one of the largest holiday approaching, I'm not amazed at all; how the Eurocentric/Western culture of the seasons, is on its full-court press on the minds and spirits, of the young and old alike. The pressures of TV commercials, shopping and decking-the-halls, is pandemonium this time of year! Particularly, the image of the this plump- jolly-old, bearded man, that wears black boots and raiments of red --trimmed with white-- deriving from the North Pole?! What in the world does this mythical character, actually have to do with the impending legitimacy of this alleged Christmas Day? Without letting the plot thicken too much, I'll keep the focus on this good 'ole boy, Santa Claus/Chris Cringle/St Nick.
OK, enough of the spook isms, but I'll be damned to continue to promote and sell me and mine, any further into blind ignorance; all for the fill of gift-receiving, merriment, and seasonal decorating. Secondly, for those that don't have an appropriate view and history of themselves, great scholars like Dr. Maulana Karenga created Kwanzaa, in the 1960's to help reconnect those to their first consciousness, long overdue! So, why would I surrender my identity and earned-living, to allow some misplaced customs, images or holidays to take all the credit for it? I'd be out of my friggin mind, to perpetuate that craziness! So many are crazy with such sickness, that they gladly de-leverage themselves. To what they claim and even think are harmless gestures of seasons "observations" greetings. I for one, always had a lingering dis-ease with the many provoked holidays . . .for I couldn't substantiate them into anything except, a socio-political agenda, that has become institutionalized to brainwash the masses into self-capitulation and hysteria! This is not a bust on holidays, but a wake up call to those that refuse to remain rocked to sleep by them. Substantiate a matter, and for sure we all can stand and build on it . . .otherwise through the junk to the whims of discarded rubbish, no recycling needed!
SOLUTIONS:
Keep inspired to help yourself and others stand for something worthwhile. Be about the solution! Read, comprehend and learn more, to make the world a better place. ..Substance people, substance!
