Purpose or Greed? 1

It was once told me that people are a reason, season , or a lifetime. After hearing such a quote, that stays in the back of my mind from time to time. The thing that bothers me, is how do you know who is what? Is someone that pops up in life randomly on occasion a reason, season, or a lifetime. It would seem to me that such person qualifies as 1, possibly 2 of the reasons. They have definitely been around for a reason, but the ending question is it for a season, or lifetime. I have to admit, I'm obsolete young black man, college degree(recent grad), no kids, healthy, will make money, and knows his direction in life. But with sayin all that, im not looking for anything that is a lifetime right now. But what keeps popping up in front of me, I think sometimes I force. Purpose or Greed?, I have not decide yet that is yet to be determined. Logically, to me, it seems as both, but in the real world, there cannot be both!

Margin of Error

As I ment to blog at the beginning of the year, my new thing right now is maintaining my margin of error. As it was pointed out to me on talk radio, we all have been born with a margin of 100%. As we have come up through the years, in different walks of life, we have chipped away at our margin. We can all remember such things like, lying to mom or dad about a test grade and they found out other wise, possibly getting caught cheating on a test in middle or highschool, being drunk in public somewhere and forgetting to call your loved one back. It is at these moments that we have chipped away at our margin of error. These days, I say that I live from day to day, because it is less stressfull, and helps me maintain my margin of error. Is my margin still resting at 100%, NO WAY!, as long as I stay above, lets say.....65%, then I am doing okay in my book. Life is a Bitch, you just have to maintain your margin throughout the journey.

Is it really what it seems???

I took me a while to put this up....

So last week Mitchum and I were in this restaurant/bar in VA Beach, chillin and being fly as usual. Frankly, nobody was touchin' us, but anywho.......

So we are watching the games and this guy and his date in front of us. So I proceed to point out that my man here has bought like 5 rounds of drinks since we have been in the establishment, not to mention the dinner. So we both wonder if he is going to get what he hopes is the end result at the end of the night, which ends up in a bed or where ever you like it. So Mitchum proceeds to tell me that he doesn't think his game is strong enough to do such, because he seems as thought he is fumbling with his date. But I gave him the benefit of the doubt. And then it hit me!! So I asked my homie the following.......

"Are ni!#%s participating in legal prostitution?".......................As always he give me the what the hell is wrong with you look when I ask random shit! But I explained that with prostitution you are basically paying for sex to happen at some point or another. So in reference to my friend here, that is buying all these rounds of drinks its kind of obvious what he wants his end result to be.....Thus is kind of like prostitution because he is paying for everything in hopes of something............

My boy Mitchum pauses and then agrees, do you?......................
