Cultivating relationships
It has been my experience that you cannot have the capacity to care for or love another until you first love yourself.
“As citizens of this world
it should never be brought into question.”
Ring around the Rosies a pocketful of posies. Ashes, ashes they all fall down!
CHAPTER 3
STRATEGIES AGAINST HUMANITY
“War is the greatest plague that can afflict humanity; it
destroys religion, it destroys states, it destroys families.
Any scourge is preferable to it.”
– Martin Luther King
DIVIDE AND CONQUER
At the root of all division — at the core of
all destructive decisive wars and all
apocryphal conspiracies — is the epic,
tried-and-true tactic of divide and
conquer. It is a wonder how the populace
is still not on full alert to know and
recognize and defend against this primary
tactic. Yes or no: is it not true this tactic
has deceived the masses throughout
known civilization? It has been perpetually
used as an effective weapon and
interwoven as a foundational, all-purpose
offensive.
Global Wealth Inequality
Those with extreme wealth have often accumulated their fortunes on the backs of people around the world who work for poor wages and under dangerous conditions. According to Oxfam, the wealth divide between the global billionaires and the bottom half of humanity is steadily growing. Between 2009 and 2018, the number of billionaires it took to equal the wealth of the world’s poorest 50 percent fell from 380 to 26.

Do you Remember?
a time not to long ago filled with joyous noise of family, friends and community. When we would gather and enjoy one anothers company just for the sake of it without arguing fighting and bickering. Do you remember when Family was the intimate core unit that kept everyone close and was the source where every member could gather strength and support in times of need.
Do you remember neighborhoods where everyone knew one another and as a child the neighbors would watch over you, keep, you, protect, and discipline you when needed. Do you remember when? Do you remember just yester year we raised our children with pride instilling precious values and morals that were passed down to us generation after generation creating strong unbreakable bonds. Do you remember? Do you remember when men were men and highly esteemed their women giving them the utmost in respect willing to lay down everything to edify his Queen. Do you, I say do you remember when a man would raise his family despite the odds that were against him. Do you remember when women would raise there family. Being the core unit in which all depend.
Do you remember the morning breakfast and evening meals prepared by loving hands, do you, I say again and again do you remember the touch of the hand that wielded healing caresses that calmed the nerves but could deal chastising blows to correct a naughty hand.
Do you remember?Do you remember the family and what role it played in keeping everyone together. How important it is to preserve and protect and how a race of people would face certain doom if they were to neglect. Do you remember how the families supported their communities and vise versa the communities provided structure and support to the families. Oh how soon we forget within a generation of neglect. So when you look out into the world and ask how and why it has come to be I need you to remember how it came to be. That in instances of neglect when we choose not to correct, an individual who has forgotten the code of respect then we do a disservice to ourselves and them. No man or woman is an island unto themselves as we all are linked and we will all celebrate together or fail together. PLEASE REMEMBER !DDM.(c) 2014 Do you remember?

Clash of Civilizations: Samuel P. Huntington
The nature of Civilizations:
A civilization is a cultural entity, villages, regions, ethnic groups, nationalities, religious groups,
A civilization is thus the highest cultural grouping of a people and the broadest level of cultural identity people have… short of that which distinguishes humans from other species.
