DA Mets....

Love or hate 'em? They are back haven't had much success since their 1986 Championship.. But, hold up they are back. Don't think this is just a one season thing my Mets are back and strong we have the out field on lock and the pitching staff looks strong as well. Wait the in field is on point as well so all and all we look very promising. Hopefully when football season comes around my teams look as good (Jets and Giants, who else...? LOL).

Pedro is going thru his little hit and miss days but once he comes out of this slump damn watch out do I hear a pennant and possibly another World Series Championship?? Bobby A is doing aight so far in the Mets line up so that was a good trade. I know that I don't write on sports usually but hey I have been doing a lot of different things lately and this is one thing I love.

I have met the greatest person in the world they support me thru everything just want to say thanks I know I tell you I love you all the time but it's not even enough. Since we started dating the Mets came out of their slump of 20 years and that's wassup. :) All I can say is.....

DA METS!!!!

Gut Instinct....

Yo, why I knew that today was a shitty day? I woke up this morning and for some reason kept telling myself it's all right everything will be good just got to get up and do what you got to do. Nope, should have listened to my first intuition that was telling me not to go to my second interview cause something just didn't feel right.

So, as you can tell I am writhing this cause something grimy happened all I can say is WTF... This shit always happens when I have one of those feelings. DAMN, by now I should have learned my lesson you know. Nope trying to get whatever job is given to me at the moment and trying to do big thangs is not working out right now. I got into a car accident a block and a half from the house... Let me tell you the next time I get that feeling I am keeping my ass at the house there is a reason for the gut wrenching feeling so next time just listen to your....

GUT INSTINCT!!!

I know I will. My car is fucked, fucked, fucked, can I say it again. FUCKED! Had to get that out of my system now all I can do is wait for it to get fixed and hopefully it is quick.

Holdin' it Down....

Recently I did something totally out of character for myself.... I moved to NY to attend the Art Institute without having a job in place or anything like that. To tell you the truth I am torn up right now, my gut is telling me everything will be all right but my brain is telling me to panic. All I can do right now is attempt to keep a good head on my shoulders and see what comes of it.

I am lucky enough to have the support of loved ones and a great person that is so supportive of everything I do. I love you and I just hope that I am as good as everyone thinks I am. Without this support I would have ran back to the military a few months ago. Which to tell the truth far from where I want to be at the current time in my life.

This is a short blog today but it is what it is... Just letting people know I got someone to hold down and I appreciate them......

Holdin' it Down.

The Easy Road...

Do you know the meaning of this life?
Is there a reason we are here to suffer?
Can someone answer me these questions?
Do I speak to myself or do you hear me when I ask for a favor?
I need help that is all I'm asking is for a little compassion and someone to listen to me...?
Can you help me along this path and together we will make it thru anything?Pain and sorrow is what we encounter daily and I want to help you see the other side...
Come over to the side where I have nothing but love for you and that is what you deserve.
Is this something that is too hard to fanthom that someone really wants to be selfless and do for you.
No self benefit no stature of gaining an ego nothing but to give to you the reality of what love is..
Don't shy away and don't try to hide your feelings I understand that you've been hurt before but I am not them and I will never do that to you.
I want to show you that all people are not the same and that love is pure when I say I love you this is not a pick up line
But actual fact and I would not use this to my advantage.
So my hand is out will you take it and join me along the way thru this crazy life?I have one thing left to say....

We've only just begun you cannot even begin to imagine what is left in store for you, no heartache, no pain, just love there is ups and downs but you make it no one said love was...

THE EASY ROAD!!!

Too Short...

Why is that people have to always past judgment on everyone that actually goes out there and enjoys life? How long do you really have here? You only have right now and I know you've heard that tomorrow is not guaranteed...!! Come on now, live and let live is what it should be you live the way you want and let everyone else do them... I know you hear me say, "Do you and I'm a do me" live by this and you will do fine.

The problem occurs when you start making it a point to ruin others lives due to the fact you are too scared to live your own life. So I got out of the Army and did what I told everyone I would I opened a successful Cafe' now I am about to do bigger and better things. That was nothing but a small speed bump and I have the support from family and loved ones to do what I have always wanted to do.

Without you I don't know if I could have really made the decision but I love you, the three women that are the closest my heart. I will show you how good things are going to get. So if you can bare with me I will prove this time worthy and that we have nothing to worry about because prosperity is on the verge. I know that we will be happy and that we will live life they way it was meant to be.

So if you find yourself thinking day to day this is not where I thought I would be and this is not making me happy. You need to get up make a change cause only you have the control to change the outcome in your life. Sure there are a few special people out there that contribute to help you out. You have but one life and let me tell you it is....

TOO SHORT!!!

Plain and Simple, TRUTH....

I never thought that I would find something so pure, untainted and true until I found LOVE... I know you are thinking, did Boogie just say Love??? Let me tell you that this is something I never thought I would find personally.

I found the one person I thought to say the least make believe. You have opened a door that until now was assumed non existent to me. It was so hard for me to say "I love you" but once I did my life changed. I now believe in true love and that there is someone for everyone.

You do so much for me without even knowing it. Me, the person whose demeanor is portrayed as strong willed and a hard exterior, is able to show someone without hesitation the true me. I have no issues with my flaws or imperfections when in your presence. Your brown eyes melt very existence and I feel like a little kid again. I want you to teach me something new all the time as do I for you and together we grow in our relationship. Thank you for everything, I love you and we have so much more to look forward to.

I wrote this to let people know that yes I am soft hearted but it's not a weakness. All I want to do is show you the.....

Plain and Simple, TRUTH....

ROLL CALL....

Opportunity Knocks

Recently, I have had an opportunity arise, and I am hesitant to take it up. I know if I don't take this, the opportunity may just slip away and never present itself again for me. I caught myself thinking should I just take the risk and go out there on a limb and regardless what happens know that I tried? I am fastidious when it comes to trying a lot of things specially if I know the possible consequences and repercussion's. But, if I don't do this I would be very unhappy and probably regret it in the future. Should I stay where I am and do what I do best and make everyone else happy or should I do me. The hardest things in life is realizing who you are and when an opportunity presents itself for you to do you, is knowing that you can take it. Now it is decision time and I am all about taking up this opportunity because due to the multitude of it I will be doing big things later on. So when one of these situations arise for you are you going to stand there or are you going to answer the door because...

OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS.....

"I don't walk on water, I am no where near perfect nor am I trying to become perfect but I would like to achieve the status that is close to admirable. " (ME)

Yo, an opportunity can be anything, it can be a business opp, a relationship, change in financial stature, so many things and we have them happen to us all the time. The thing is we need to pay closer attention and grab hold and ride out the opportunity. Even if you are the one that is somewhat the planned out to the minute anal retentive type.

Take Advantage

Hold up, I know what you are probably thinking just off the title of this one... What the hell is she talking about take advantage? Well let me enlighten you. I have been so lucky to meet the people I have in the military and in my travels due to the military to take some life changing things with me from those experiences. I have had so many people there for me in times of well to say the least I felt lost, they helped guide me on to the right path again. I am glad that I have you as my friends to tell the truth you are my family. I consider a true friend family at all costs I am here for you as you are for me. I want to take a little time to say congratulations to my big brother Smoke Dogg, you came along way and I am happy that you and your wife have been blessed with a little P coming into the world. Keep me posted on that and remember you are the one that educates your child first, so take advantage. To my little sister K-Points, you have the world handed to you, go represent the US in Australia and play your hardest. This is just an opportunity for you to take advantage. My other little sister Babs, you need to pursue your love for snowboarding and take on all the sponsors that keep knocking on your door, how many people get that everyday? Not too many so please use it and go ahead take advantage. Dr. Love (Laura), you have yet to experience the military to it's full capability and if you decide to get out that is great you will do wonderful out here. If not use all the resources that the military provides and take advantage. Giggles, Juicy Gurl (Cara), Jenn, Bongo, Q.P., D, and all the rest of my friends, you all have so much opportunity and life is just beginning so take everything you can from it there is only one so go ahead and take advantage. My mom and the rest of my family, thank you for the support on my transition and you all have the ability to do anything you want so use everything you can and take advantage.

I hope that you all are in the best of health and remember that anything that is given to us is nothing that we can not overcome. I hope that you all take this as me pushing you on the right path like all of you have done for me, so it's ok to go out there and....

TAKE ADVANTAGE

True Friend

Are you someone I can turn to and tell my most intimate secrets for you to keep
I'm real and I need to know I can trust you, or please tell me if this is too deep
A true friend is someone you can depend on through good, bad, thick or thin times
There is no such thing as going to far or drawing lines
It takes time, effort, support and willingness to understand
Every situation that is at hand
Do you have what it takes to stand in there in a time of heat
Or will you stand back and just let me take the fall alone and bare this burden as defeat
A true friend has nothing but good intentions when dealing with you
I can't say that most people we meet, are even real to say the least remotely true
Will you keep in touch with me no matter how hard it seems just a note, a call a card
Every time you get a message from me does it make your day easier when before it seemed so hard
Can I confide in you like I know you can me with no hesitations
This is me feeling confident in sharing my dreams and aspirations
I need to know that you are someone that I can cry in front of without being ridiculed
Don't take advantage of them or miss use them 'cause quite frankly that means you are confused

I am your true friend indeed and have no quarms telling you are going through anything with you it's all love in the end I am still here for you. Being what you need, a.....

TRUE FRIEND

Success....

How do you meassure your own success or for that fact someone elses? Do you meassure it by the car, house, clothes and amount of money made? Or is it something else, family values, doing good deeds that go unoticed, being self-righteous? This is strictly you telling me what you think would make you successful in your own eyes no one else's, they really don't matter in the end, RIGHT?

I will let you know what makes me a success and that is the people around me, friends, fam, my kid, just that and I wake up everyday going out and doing the best that I can. So now it's your turn holla at me with your version... ONE

For real only one person has the power to meassure your....

SUCCESS

Keep Hustlin'!!!

Hey it's been a minute since my last one, but I promise that I will not disappoint you anymore... I am just on the grind doing my thing, trying to keep my head above water.. One thing is for sure that, civilian life is so much better I wouldn't say all that much easier, but BETTER....! First, let me ask this, what is really good with the damn gas prices, huh... Fluctuating asses... yo, that is not even funny. LG, or should I call you Dr. Love, that's your new nickname, what's good ma? Yo, I know you bout out of Korea but keep me posted we have to get Kiyara's stuff done... Turtle, thanks for coming out and seeing me yo, I appreciate that and it was good to see you.

This is real love that's comin' straight from my View 2 You... So just remember to.....

KEEP HUSTLIN' !!!!

Shake 'Em Off....

Funny thing is that regardless of what you do someone is always there to hold you back, tell you that you're not good enough and ridiculing every move that you make. Funny thing is you can be doing your best be peaked at your full potential, but that is not good enough for the haters. All I can say is that a song comes to mind and it goes: "they smile in your face, while all the time they want to take your place.....Backstabbers." Yo, if this blog is rude or you have nothing better to do but ridicule it or think that you know someone so you judge writtings hey it's your world, I'm just a squirel.. It's all good this page is for anyone to read, post a comment but tread softly cause the fingers you point three are pointing back at you. Look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself is what you are doing yesterday, today or tomorrow where you thought you would be? Probably not, funny thing is your life didn't amount to ..... well you can figure that one out, so stop trying to drag others down. Yo, on another note I would like to tell my friends (my true friends) that I got nothin' but love for ya... The few of you that are close to me and really do know me keep your heads up and remember to..... Shake 'Em Off...... Just remember that Haters are all around us to just shake 'em off and keep doing you I am here for my friends, family and just so you know I am here.... Hate on haters, we going to do us....

Say it Isn't So....

The world seems to be in turmoil right now... What's really going on? I watch the news and fear for my daughter's future to see that the world is turning into chaos either by nature or by peoples beliefs being a conflict with one another. If you look at our past it is crazy that all wars in some way had to do with religion and now they are still that way. When will we as Americans realize to keep our noses out of everyone else's plate and just take care of home? It is sad when you walk down the streets and see all these homeless people and majority of them are Vets, we can serve our country in a time of crisis but come home and amount to nothing. Is that what Americans do is consider Vets worthless? Ignorance is all around us everyday you hear someone say they hate the military and everything that it stands for and they spit on troops or protest against them. What they don't realize is that they have no choice but to do what the commander in chief has told them to do. Soldiers might not like it, but it's a way of life and when you sign and raise that right hand you swear to protect our rights against all foreign and domestic. So the next time you see a vet on the side of the street that is homeless thank him or her I am not telling you to pay them but remember that they made the ultimate sacrifice for out country. I just hope that my daughter never has to see the world turn to chaos due to poor or greedy leadership and that our troops don't suffer anymore than they already have. The family's and loved ones left behind have my utmost respect. So think of this and if you see something that looks wrong think or say out loud.....

Say it Isn't So......

Dedicated to my friends, family and fellow members of the Armed Forces and anyone this touches. Keep doing it BIG. Holla. ONE

Big Moves

In life we all make decisions that we are not to sure about but we do it because we get bored and we are unhappy with our current situation. I know that I have one of the best friends in the world the funny thing is that I never thought that I would get close to a friend again the way that best friends do. I lost my best friend that I grew up with a couple weeks prior to Kiyara being born, he was shot at close range in the heart. That took a big toll on me and I just tried to close myself off from everyone. I get close but never too close to my friends but recently I became close and made a best friend that I am glad helped me realize that everyone needs someone to talk to. The funny thing is now that I am making moves I am happy and I know now that the Army is not a safe haven nor a shoulder to lean on in unstable situations. It is something that works you and lets you know that you are expandable so there should be no issue letting go since they throw us out the door with a swift kick and say good luck. So I ask you this, working for a company as impersonal as the military is do you think that I would take a look back over my shoulder, stutter step or even hesitate to think for an instance that I messed up and need to go back. NOT ON DUTY.... It is greener on the other side and I am here for you regardless of anything that happens remember that the ones that show you they really care and are genuine to you will show that they mean what they say. Hope that one day eveyone can make do it big and have friends that support you through all the good and bad times. It is hard to go out and just make....

Big Moves.

G, thank you for all you have done for me and making me realize that what my number one is. Thank you again ma and keep doing you and know that I am always here for you my fam is my heart and you are my fam. ONE LOVE ma... You know how soft I am, I love you ma and so does Bookie.

Choosing a New Direction...

I am at a point in my life where I need to choose a new direction in life. I am at the point of weighing out all my options, I either stay in the military (re-up) or I get out and venture on to a road less traveled. I am thinking about going out and doing it up as far as going and trying new things going out to make a real family not saying that the friends I have made in my military venture are not family but one of my own. My daughter deserves better than what the military is offering no amount of money or gifts can make up for the time lost during my military tour. I am looking into Boston at the time, I think that would be a great place to settle down and just have a family.

I know that this is a hard decision and one that will have to be thought out in depth and in time I will have to decide where and what I will do. I think that if and when I decide to break away from the Army that this will be an enormous relief, I will always remember the great experiences I've had and all of the friends I have made. But everyone knows that you come to a point in your life where you have a fork in your road you take the paved road or the dirt road that is not on the map. No real direction, nothing is written or for sure, no real security and it is not always the safest but you know it possibly is the correct route. I am ready for that step and so I have safely decided that these next 2 years I will be planning out my time and looking for a job and all that good stuff for after military life. When my friends or whoever comes to this point in their life, I will be here to support you in whatever aspects you need me to. This is scary but I have to start now by.....

CHOOSING A NEW DIRECTION.......

Half Step....

What I have been around and the experiences I have had through out my lifetime, have made me realize that if I half step then my life is worthless and I am done. You half step in the hood you get your life took. You half step in the military you loose your value, respect, dignity, possibly rank, money or more. Keep doing it up out there fam and peeps that have done it up for me and kept me on top of my game. That made me keep the beat of my drum real and make sure to correct myself if I was half steppin'. There are so many people out there that never really understand their real reason to be here, well I might not be here to give you the answers but for real I can help you and give you the advice I know from my experiences and that is all it is.

Grains of salt are all around us but real friends are here until the end, they don't care about your imperfections they accept you for you and if you half step they help you catch up. I have some good friends that hold me down and I got them in the same respect. If you too good to be around other people and listen to realism and true facts then you can move on, but don't get caught half steppin' around me because I will take your damn cookies. That is a cliche' huh and can you figure it out? Nope, probably not but I am here to tell you I am glad I was born in the life that I was without a silver, gold or even bronze spoon in my mouth, plastic worked fine for me.

I have figured this much, if you were born with it all you half step and end up having some damn issues in life and I see it everyday not being competent enough to make decisions, no street savvy and no real life experiences. Then have the ignorance to come out and say that they have some from the military. Not on duty, yo ma or pa keep it gully and remember that you have nothing on most and can learn something from everyone. Just remember that life throws us challenges to see if we will give up and.....

HALF STEP......

On TOP......

My game, yes I can say that I am on top of my game. Do you know what it means to be "on top"? I don't think that most people view this as I do but yo, that's why this is my blog and you are reading it, why? Hmmmm, that is one question you need to ask yourself why you keep coming back to read the words of this page.... Is it because I am on top of my game?

I must be up on something because I write and it is so easy to be me and it is so hard for so many to be just what they are, YOU. Being yourself means that you are on top of your game, is this a hard task at hand? Yes, to some it is, but you need not fear for there are always strong support systems in place to help you succeed at being the best you can. I know that I will be here for anyone one of my friends, family, or just associates. Remember that you are never alone out there sometimes you may feel that you are or run into bad luck more often than never but you can still come out on top.

I may be a little rough around the edges sometimes, say things that I don't always mean but everyone is like that from time to time. Life deals you hands that are unexpected it is how you come out of the situation, which determines whether you are staying on top of your game or not. Things are not all pretty and peachy all the time I know I never really had all the good things in life, glad that I have been able to have all the grimy situations dealt to me it kept me on top of my game. I will always keep improving my imperfections and trying to make the best of any situation in which I find myself. This helps me keep my game up and remain...

ON TOP......

I write for myself and for anyone who wants to read it. This is for my friends and fam and anyone else, this is my knowledge to you. That is why my page is called My View 2 You.... DAMN, some people need to step up and gain some self respect remember that all people have their own perceptions and this is your reality we may not always see eye to eye but work with it. Make small sacrifices and don't ridicule what others do, just do you! Just another way that you can keep your game, ON TOP....

Misinterpretation

Damn, I already wrote one called "Clarify" and if you really knew me then you wouldn't leave comments that talk out of your fourth point of contact. Funny how people are quick to make a judgment like I said before, prior to knowing someone. I have nothing to prove to anyone and if you really know me than you would know that I am never afraid to be up front and blunt with the people around me. I don't bite my tongue for anyone and I will not start I will always be real and this is funny to me that whoever you are was not real enough to put their name on their comment...???? If I think it is who I think, than here is to you, keep writing other peoples words and feel good about not being real, but be hesitant about what and how you judge others. You are as fake as they come, might have a lil game play with the words but other than that your legs to damn weak to support your total bull sh*@. If I knew for sure who you were or if you e-mail me because everyone knows my e-mail; educatedthug4u78@yahoo.com go ahead and grow some let me know who you are and I will let you know the real me.... Are you scared or maybe now I flipped the script on you and made you think about going and looking in your own mirror???? I know that you read that one, how about this, I am done no more to say but keep it real and look at yourself prior to judging.

How is it plain and simple in black and white the words we read are all so easily misinterpreted? It might be due to blindness, or shear hate for someone or something people envy what they want to be like and hate what that don't know or don't understand. Hate is nothing more than a cover up for fear. I will leave you with my quote, "Hate is a form of miseducation, to accept this is a form of ignorance, strive for excellence." (me)

So in closing you can hate me now, but I won't stop now, NEVER!!!! So try to get right and remember that this is all a fabrication of your mind and it is one big......

MISINTERPRETATION......
