I am thinking of the Talib Kweli lyrics from More Or Less...... It's been some few days. Last night we heard helicopters for hours circling over our house with the spot lights blazing. Today we learned there was a triple shooting up the street and an innocent bystander was killed, they were all pretty young. Our neighbor has left in an ambulance twice in the past 3 days..... Problems. My daughter's friend Veronica (who she has grown up with her whole life) Mom passed away, way to young to die leaving behind 2 kids in High School. I spent the greater part of the day crying watching the MJ footage on CNN/Facebook. The sadness is numbing. His daughter pushed me over the edge with sorrow. All these deaths are painful and pretty senseless. I feel like there needs to be more love. We need to tell people we love that we love them and that our lives are better because of them. Praise your children, love your parents, be kind to your neighbors. Like Talib says let's give the devil less enjoyment..... Love Love Love. And so now is my time to go give him some more love. Goodnight and be loved.
