Many mornings have passed since I woke up with this particular person on my mind. It's so funny how things can turn out. You may have a vision for something, prayed about it, begin to see it fall into fruition, then like smoke - it's gone. I looked at a video that I made for and about this particular person. It made me smile, because even though the content in the video that I made will never be, at least for one moment in time, I was happy. No Rolex, Michael Kors, or Armani Exchange can buy you happiness. How do I know, I have tried it. Tried and true, I know what I am talking about. We have not spoken in over a month. If the opportunity for us to communicate ever occurs, my letter would go something like this. Dear Particular Person: Before we went our separate ways for the last time, the rage that I was feeling was enough to split you in two. The disrespect and pain that I was feeling was much worst. There is nothing more displeasing than to be disrespected in front of everyone that knows your name. More over, I hope that moment in time was worth it. With me, you had an ally, a cheerleader, a motivator, someone that truly believed in your mission and purpose. In the words of my late grandmother, someone that was, "Good As Gold". With every part of me, I forgive you. For I have really come to the realization that we are creatures of habit. We ONLY do what we are predetermined to do. Having a running track record as you did prior to us getting together. It's only natural for you to resume such behaviors when there is a lack of discipline and structure in your life. For that very reason, I forgive you. We have to lay dead aspects of our lives to rest. The notion of me telling people that you were dead to me had nothing to do with "you", but it was more like a figurative way for me to officially let go of what I know now will never be. That was hard, but as my Facebook status read, "I left it in Gatlinburg." God works in mysterious ways. When you and I talked about the trip, our sole reason in going was contingent on the other person's attendance. I guess you and I discovered what "Victoria's other secret" was. I hope that nothing but success, goodness, and prosperity follows you. I wish you nothing but the very best in life. Take Care, O.A.Ross

That's it! I Quit! I'm Moving on!

Sam Cook recorded this old blues track in 1961. We were in a different time back then, but the realities of the lyrics are relevant even today. They were relevant in my life anyway. We connect to our artists by our emotions and experiences. Adele did a cover of the song on her album, 19. Her British accent and obvious sassy attitude gave the song flair and life. This song ministered to me because it gave direct insight on a situation that I was experiencing. I was in LOVE, by myself. There was an agreement to just, "be friends". In the song, there's a line that said, "if I can't have you the way I want you, I don't want you at all." So there it is. Throughout the relationship that I was in, there was a strong time strain. No time for me. No time for us. I can remember a conversation, "...you're not a priority. You're simply on a to-do list." One would think that even sane man would have left then, right? Not my stupid ass. SMH. Th...

A bottle of emotion

I refuse to write yet another love story and be labeled as a writer with lovely thoughts about happiness a bliss. I would prefer to be that brother that writes of truth, the other side, the side less read or shall I say TALKED about because it is less desirable material. No fuck that. I can tell I lost a few of you with that last sentence - so let's try it again. I would prefer to keep it real with the ugly than MAC make-up the FACE you want to see. Or better yet, paint a picture of the most beautiful relic on God's green earth. I'm real whether directly or indirectly. Intelligence is earned, it is free and costs you nothing to obtain. GET SOME! If you read hard enough you'll feel my pain and my intentions and my story. My intentions are not to confuse you, yet USE you to think harder than you thought the day before. I'll be your therapist, come on in. It's here - all right here, you just have to open your mind and receive it. The funny thing about words is t...
