Ahh, you all don't know nothing about my title.  There is one person that I know for sure will know about the title.  Well, I might have to take that back, I am not sure if she has the new album, yet.  She has the old one, but, I am not sure if she copped the new one.  The new one is banging, though.  You all don't know what I am talking about.  You think I am crazy.  The title is from a song by my newest favoritest singer of all time...J-Moss.  Ahhh, you don't know nothing about J.  You need to be in the know to know about J.  Look him up.  That is all I have to say...look this brother up.  And then come holla at me.

Man.  If it is hard out here for a pimp...what about us regular folk?  I mean, I would think it would be a little easier for a pimp who has no morals or boundaries.  He does what he has to do to get the money for the rent.  Regular folk just can't go out and be deceitful and dishonest and kill and beat up and solicit women and actually sleep at night.  Pimps don't have a conscious.  They don't have a standard.  They probably sleep pretty well most nights.  It is not like you can really be a bad pimp.  A pimp is a pimp.  He is what he is.  A regular person, especially a christian regular person is caught up in morals and living right.  He has to go through a lot of red tape before he can soundly sleep at night.  he has to prepare himself.  He goes through rigorous testing and molding and sacraficing before nights of rest come easy.  He just can't sleep at night if moral and religious codes are broken.  Yes, I think it is definitely harder for a regular Joe than a pimp.  Pimps got it easy, if you ask me!!! 

This thanksgiving, I am on a mission.  I am shooting to be more thankful.  I am aiming at not complaining as much about the things I don't have and start concentrating on the things I DO have.  And I got a lot.  So, I have a lot of things to be thankful.  I am afraid to start listing, but I feel like I must.  But, once, I start, the list could go on alllllllllllll the way until the next journal...

my GOD,HIS son, Jesus Christ,HIS patience with me, HIS grace, for HIM choosing me, my life, my wife, my child, my house, my nanny, my mom and dad, Juren's mom and dad, my sister and brother, my car, food on the table...whew, lemme thank GOD for that twice, doggonnit!!!  Let me see, where was I...oh yes,my poetry,Def Poetry Jam,Russell,Stan,my acting,my career,Spoken Funk,Da' Poetry lounge,friends,my family, enemies,my pain, my struggles,my joys,my agent,my manager my computers,my Bible,Purpose Driven Life, my iphone, myspace,all of my myspaces ( I ahve a million of them) my,my,my,you,you,you, Poetri.com, spokenfunk.com,spokenfunk.tv,my poetryworkshops, Fairfax High school,my bed,clothes on my back, money...geesh, I almost forgot about money, even though she forgets about me al the time,my sins, cause they have brought me closer to the Lord,Pastor Chuck Singleton,Loveland Church,my barber,did I say food, yea, I said food...but just in case...chicken, I am thankful for all kinds of chicken,my journals,the lady who taught us abut eating,Malcolm Jamal Warner,Bootsy Collins, Amir,Ens,the Comedy Union,Shihan,Elsie,Gimel,Dante,Vanessa Williams,Tyler Perry,Miyagi's,AquaLounge...oh my gosh, this could go on for ever. 

You should do that.  Sit down and type up all the things that you re thankful for.  I think I am gonna make a list and everyday I think of new things to be thankful for, I will add them to the list.  That is cool.  I pray and hope that I remember to do this.  Cause I really am on a mission.  Every year at this time, I get mad at the establishment and the whole thankful thing, cause I felt people were only thinking about being thankful during this time.  And that would pist me off for some reason.  We should be thankful ALLLL the time.  So, I would waste every THANKSGIVING being mad at other people so much that I never really took time to be thankful.  And then...as hyprocritcal as that was, I wouldn't even be thankful for the rest of the year.  So, I was getting mad at other folks and not even doing what I was being mad at them for...hmmm...did that make sense?  And you think it is hard being a pimp...ha.  Try walking around living right.  Now that is hard!

Anyhoo, so, this holiday season, I am not gonna waste time being angry at people.  Now tell me that ain't hard?  I am just gonna be thankful.  I started a thingamaggi in my message boards for anyone that wants to be thankful with me.  Of course, be thankful about your own thangs.  Don't be stealing my thankfulness.  HAHAHA...but yea, if you want to go and add your thankful things, please feel free.  Go to here...no here...come on go here...and post what you are thankful for.  Or you don't have to...you can just go around being a pimp.  HAHAHAHA.  Just joking.  Sorta.

Bless me indeed and enlarge my territory.  Keep you hands on me and keep me from my enemies so that I may cause no pain.  Halleluayah
