Lesson 57 is called Making Up, not relationship wise but society wise. Meaning, there are certain social responsibilities we all have. General respects and norms that we all expect to happen in day to day life. Like personal habits, personal space, and personal safety. That is what we owe to one another, but some of us go a step further we want to look “desirable”. That is a responsibility that is heavy, because we really don’t know what anyone else likes so we fix ourselves up so we would like it. Then you get a little attention and you like it then attention is what you seek and not just being comfortable. Well this lesson is about that getting back to being comfortable. I know dudes who complain about the women they are attracting, it’s their bait. If you dress like a trick you will attract whores. Same with women if you dress like a bitch that only wants bitchy things you will attract dogs by the mob. There was a philosopher named Lord 3*2 putts Houston RIP who said ” Hoes don’t get choose, I smash off on vogues, wear starched down clothes” Meaning, in my culture if you chase it you’re a hoe, male or female. This episode is about the patience that comes with living and knowing that what is for you is for you. This may not be an easy concept, until you confront it in your real life. The question is why am I putting on make up or “costume” to impress people I don’t want anything to deal with? Or can I attract my tribe with just my vibe? It aint cheap or profitable to “look” like you got money in hopes of getting money is a young mans game. Anyway enjoy lesson 57 and see if you can release some of the responsibilities you hold over yourself.

Today episode talks about freedom and what it means to be “free”. Too often we take for granted the meaning of freedom, to most of us it means being able to go where you want if you want. As I have gotten older, I see I cannot go anywhere I want, not without consequences. People have been kept out of opportunities and upward mobility, based on their freedom level.

I can walk into an exclusive Golf club (I don’t golf) but I will be escorted out and could possibly loose my life. This episode explores a different kind of freedom risking it for others that really do not respect the sacrifice you would be making. I know people that will go to jail for a shoplifting and would not think nothing of it, where if I am with them we ALL go. A pound ass snicker is not worth my being handcuffed and sat in a car and being in the system. On the other hand if I see a person getting hurt, I have to decide never an easy decision, when its strangers. Its a fine line and I go into the issue deeper.

Griffinstein chops it up with Lejon, Patrick, and Dante. They talk about being incarcerated young with a 40 year sentence and seeing the outside despite all odds. Each man has a distinct and riveting story of faith, patience, and strength. All done with Islam as the motivation. They are speaking on finding themselves and others all in the name of uplifting humanity.

Lejon has an organization “Motivated 2 Help Others” his mission statement is: Serving the community with fitness/exercise. Giving to the poor, needy, and wayfare. Having positive and encouraging dialogue with the youth. Being a resource for those ex-convicts returning to society with transitional housing, drug programs and pre-apprenticeship opportunities.

Patrick has laid the groundwork for his organization DORTHY.org which stands for Defenders Of Real Truth Helping Youth. His outreach will focus on all children living on the outside of society and getting them the confidence, resources, and leadership to traverse this world they live in. Patricks goal is a world view. His aim is to be a public speaker of truth helping all over the world.

Dante will use his organization to focus on nutrition. He says, “Healthy clean food is the key to a healthy clean mind.” He has a plan to reach out to schools and children leagues to promote healthy eating habits. Hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease, are running rampant. Informing children now, he feels will curb those statistics.

Each of these men has been through trials and tribulations. With each others help and support they were able to get through what most of us could not imagine. Please stay on the look out for these organizations in the streets of Richmond, because they are out here making a difference. As Lejon says, “I destroyed a lot when I was young, it’s time to give instead of taking.” A sentiment shared by all three of these honorable Muslim men.

Today On How Do You View You I sit down with my cousin Pastor Carla Davis, pastor of Trumpet & Zion Ministries. She explains a church with no walls and her relationship with God. Also, trying to live as close to Christ like in a very un-Christlike atmosphere.

Carla was born and raise in Richmond, Ca. She lived a very different life than most, but still way to common in these days and times. Drug use, prostitution, and homelessness all leading her to start Trumpet & Zion Ministries. It was a rocky road and she has came through it all with one goal. That goal is helping those who are like her to get where she is today. “Prayer in the Park” in East Oakland with raffles and information to get on the right track is what she offers and delivers.

I talk to Carla about her goals for the ministry and plans to bring the word to the masses. Her main aim is women health, well-being, and mental state. Holding seminars to battle their way back from the streets. I was not clear on how to help people who may not be ready for help. Giving the perfect answer, she says, “God waits, so shall I, I will be here when they need me.” Even though I do not believe in God the way most folks believe. I do enjoy the thought of helping people, and if helping my cousin is the way I am to help the so be it.

The future for Pastor Davis seems very bright. She maintains a Facebook presence and has prayer line on at least 3 times a week. The aim is to ultimately have a women’s retreat. That will meet once a month where woman can stay, pray, and get healthy. All in order to do battle with obstacles in these streets. In my personal opinion, it will be a very hard road, but she seems up to it and very excited about it. Please enjoy the episode. Thank you for listening to “How Do You View You” podcast, Hosted by Griffinstein.  Pastor Davis Trumpet & Zion Ministries.https://www.itsthedark.com
