"I know a little something about being pissed off"



When one thing makes me mad, it seems like everything after that just goes downnnnn hill. Do any of us know why the smallest thing can trigger some of the largest amounts of rage? Or why trivial misunderstandings can result in fights and even killings? We as humans allow ourselves to get angry over the smallest things that in months probably won't matter anymore. In mere hours even, a situation that made you upset and in your eyes "was the worse thing ever" won't really make a difference. How quickly our emotions can change and be changed by outputs that calm us down instantly. For me, writing is my gateway for directing my anger in a more positive way. For others it's sports,cooking, and even singing. One emotion , one wrong move , can end your life. All the time on the news it's stories on how brother against brother and bestfriends are killing one another. Over property,respect, and even money. The same amount of time it took to pick up that gun, is the same amount of time it could take you to construct your anger into something that wont damage your future. Counting backwards, painting your nails, and pacing are all methods and techniques used for calming people down in stressful situations. Ever heard the saying "you are what you eat?" Well it's a new one "you are what you think." Anger can trigger hormones within the body causing you to get mentally and physically ill. Studies show how built up anger was one of many reasons why one man couldn't cure his cancer. Another side effect of anger is the mental strain it has on the sufferer. Although the angry person may not notice it immediately, over time the anger can be a burden and stroll on the brain leading to suicides and/or homicides. The next time you get really upset do you understand the consequences for how far your anger can take you?

"Can you get it up?"



Hit maker Rihanna once again is on top of her game with her new released single Rude Boy, of her album Rated R. Fans anxiously anticipated on the the video to go along with the up beat and universally accepted song. But they received a sneak peak, late yesterday afternoon at around 7:30pm (eastern time) the video was posted to youtube . When word got out, thousands of fans bum rushed to see the video. Sadly by 8:00pm the video was removed from youtube. If you are a member of rihanna's website, rihannanow.com , the Rude Boy video was not suppose to be released until TODAY. There is no word on the artist's feedback to the leak but fans were ecstatic ! I , along with hundreds of other fans were some of the lucky viewers who were actually able to see the video. "It was everything and more than I expected ! Rihanna rlly out did it with this one!" Says one fan. The video has a variety of settings differing from tribal themes to traditonal rock and roll scenes where she is inolved with a drum set. Rihanna's crude humor, Come here rude boy, boy Can you get it up Come here rude boy, boy Is you big enough? playfully suggest that Rihanna is looking for a fellow that can "handle" her. Whatever the case Rihanna went beyond fans expectations and blew everyone out of the cage! (literally)

Love , where art thou ?


When you look for love what do you find ? I bet you don't find what you think "Love" is or what it should be. Often times when we become desperate (don't looked shocked ! it happens to ALL of us) we start to become needy and grow attach to watever person is around because it's more convenient. Meaning, the person you keep saying "i love you" to, you don't rlly love . You're only saying it bcuz you're searching for something that you think you're missing. We become accustomed to feeling some sort of way once being in the same environment for so long . Being in a long term relationship , and then becoming single is hard for everyone . But you cannot go out and "look" for love, bcuz it simply doesn't happen that way . Love comes in all shapes and sizes, and is extremely spontaneous . It's not planned nor is it expected , it comes when you're the most vulnerable and when your heart is at ease . Physically and Mentally straining your heart can not be healthy, stressing about who's going to love you and who's love is rlly "true" and "pure". If you have to question if the person's love is true, then the obvious answer is no. REAL love isn't questionable ; it's a state of pure and raw emotions that can not be condemned or seduced . The feeling never fades and they stay mutual over time. So in your next relationship, do you rlly LOVE tht person or do you love the friendship you two have acquired ?

Some Seem to be Trapped



Trapping; Also known as a form of benefiting economically by selling and/or distributing illegal substances seems to be the lifestyle most people are taking . But is this lifestyle affected by recent increase in music that associates itself with trapping ? Hit makers like Gucci Mane and Yo Gotti mention in there lyrics how they use to trap before actually making it in the music industry . Has there recent popularity encouraged people to go out and try this old and dangerous way of making a profit ? Some say yes, that people are influenced by what they are exposed to. And others argue no, music does not have the much of an impact on peoples lives, everything seen in the media is not reenacted on by the public. "Trapping" as referred, dates back to times of the opium war and even before then . The trade of illegal products is a not a recent problem or situation . My question is, why is it illegal ? Women can sell indecent photos for a profit and get praised for it . Being rewarded money,fame, and even a high status, these practices are legal. While others who are trapping trying make a better life to support themselves and others around them, are persecuted and sent off to prison. Rapper Lil Wayne brought this to my attention two years ago with one of his many hit records on his latest CD Tha Carter III, His song Misunderstood had a very controversial commentary at the end. His commentary explained that the government allows the "real" criminals; sex offenders and rapist, to resume living as he or she was before the initial charge of his or her conviction. But a drug dealer ? Ohh, he or she is sent to jail . The time a rapist spends in jail is less than half what a drug dealer spends in jail . Why is that ? Why can someone who is trying to make a better life for his or her family be punished ? While someone who is mentally sick can go out into the world endangering women and men of all ages ? Who makes these decisions and laws ? One Man; David Harold Earls rapes a FOUR-YEAR-OLD girl and only receives one year imprisonment because of a plea bargain. While Luis Oscar Reyes-Dilone can traffick cocaine trying to provide for his children and family a better life and is sentenced to twelve years imprisonment . Hmmm , Isn't that a jaw dropper ?
