So Black Theology & Black Power is very good this needs to be read again, it needs to be placed in the hands of another generation of a readers, black and white. I does push me in place I don't like, but what is liked or disliked doesn't matter, a passionate commitment to growth despite myself,
The idea that we grow should is right, growth is not the end, community is. Being a dyslexic is a delight, I like it the way I see and interact with the world because of it.
Have a great day as someone has to.

I am reading "The Philosophical Breakfast Club" it is a most enjoyable book, It is a delight. I just know so little about so of the things I should know about. These four guys are just such a set of revolutionaries, who determined to change the time, the country, the community they existed in. To work towards this required a level of commitment to each other, then to a wider set of ideals or dreams that the world can be different.
In reading it in bed last night, I was struck by the staggeringly huge idea, that when these guys got married they to tours around the new and rising ways of industry, visiting factories across England. Then it became fashionable to do this and see what the future might look like. The honeymoon were factory visits. How wild is that, to look beyond the immediate future you would desire in and with a partner, to see how you would fit in a bigger space. That is beyond a set sexual encounters.
That would be a very different way to see the world. An almost dyslexia way to see the world. It does make me desire a better deeper set of education.
Have a great day, because someone has to.

So I have finished another book Finally I have "Onward" by Howard Schultz. It will a book I return to again maybe three or four hundred times. It leans into me, in way that cause me to want to lift my, not my game because it is more than that, I causes me to lift my life and it's purpose. I like coffee, I enjoy coffee, and this is about so much more what would happen if this passion drive and commitment to a community, occurred and is lived out with a sense of personal purpose. I like this book you cam see how many sticky tabs it now has!! Find it read it particularly if you lead something. Even if that the only person you lead is you. Which you do, You did know that, right!
Oh and I get a light box studio thing for taking picture in, so they should look a little better, Dyslexics rule, enjoy your day.
