Your responses are becoming few and far between. You complain I never say anything, but I'm talking a mile a minute. The thoughts are pouring out of me as if a hole were punched into a brand new 2 liter coke. I pause, no response. So I keep going and pause again, Hello? A faint sound I hear. If I wanted to hear myself think I'd talk to a mirror. At least someone would be listening and paying attention. There aren't enough hours in the day. I'm not a machine. I can't produce whenever you want, at will. It has to be a natural flow. Either too busy or too tired it is. The time in between is full of air. Yes it's a huge cloud, but sit on it and you fall right through. There has to be substance, a meeting of the minds. Now there's nothing at all. Just the sound of machines running. Otherwise it's quiet. Seconds, minutes, hours pass. Nothing. So I End.
What's going on? Can you guess?
(I stole this from my spades partner.... lol I liked the idea so I decided to try it,)

Just a quick thought!
Here's a thought:
You know how you can figure out what your dream or calling is?
Imagine winning the lottery, now you have millions of dollars. Money is no longer an issue in your life. Now what are you gonna do with your free time.
Most likely its something you should be doing now!

Father Figure
I'm a 24 year old Black Male. Single, but taken lol. Not married, and..... No kids, no baby mommas. How many people can you say that about these days. It's like the government is giving people money to have kids these days... (well in certain cases they are, but that's another blog) Maybe it's just me that feels this way, but I can barely make it on my own nowadays and really am still not Totally on my own, let alone have another mouth to feed. Not to mention once you have a child there's no more ME. It's now ME & ..... But ya know what, I have the mentality that many Men, excuse me Lil dudes lack. They have kids and could care less about taking care of them, even if they do pay child support. Which child support is income sensitive so it only causes them to choose not to achieve more to "get over", which if you just man'd up in the first place you wouldn't have to deal with child support. Or how about being married first, and I guess that Virtue is lost because there's not many out there to teach it with the influx of teen pregnancies. Yea, I bet they're teaching their kids good morals and values! OK, I'm off on a tangent, sorry....
I was going to say, I'm 24 I have no kids, but I'm still a father figure. I have a little Godson and Little cousins as well. These kids will be looking up to me whenever I'm in their presence and I've come to the realization that I have the burden to be an enforcer as well as a teacher. I must set the example for proper behavior and also frown upon improper behavior. Some of the kids I come in contact with don't have a father figure in there life. It's not up to me to be their father, but it's my duty to be that Figure.

Gimme the ball coach, I want the pressure!!
Hello, It's me Talton.
The time of my last blog was... lol sounds like I'm at confession... hmm which reminds me I haven't been to one of those since grade school! We catholics are supposed to go once a year. I think the only ppl that do are school kids and the elderly. That's even if the schools still make the kiddies go.
Well lots of things are going on with me, as usual. For the most part all is well. Keeping my head above water. Brother got bills, and with an inconsistent work schedule my lifestyle tends to exceed my means... but hey I'll try not to stress too much. God has made a way for me to survive and somehow he keeps coming through!! The devil is playing his part too... every good movie has it's twists. If the protagonist (the hero) doesn't have any obstacles to overcome then you'd have a really boring movie!
Sometimes you have those moments where as Chrisette Michele would say, "It just came to me, like an epiphany!"
Well I'm still waiting for that moment... Lol, not really... Sometimes I feel like I'm spreading myself to thin and not focusing on one thing. Which can be true in some cases. I'm rapidly approaching the age of 25! Scary folks, very Scary! It's not because I think I'm an "old person" it's just I haven't accomplished the things I'd planned b4 30 yet... I don't wanna be a 40 year old still trying to find a career! I feel like that's the path I'm on. Sure I went to college and graduated, but it's not enough. In a sense, ppl that didn't go to college and only high school sort of have it better. Nowadays, I'm either over qualified and over looked or under experience and under schooled.
My head is still held high though! I have some short term goals to meet, errors to correct, lessons to learn. Taking more control and responsibility for my actions.
When I step back and look at my family and the ppl around me, I notice singers, songwriters, dancers and so on. I'm surrounded with ppl in the Arts. I, myself have talents as well that I have put off to the side. Well maybe the was a huge mistake. Here lately I've been spending alot of my free time messing around with different mixing and editing software. I've even given myself a DJ name, lol.... Even been researching some schools in the field. I hate to sound like I'm being held back and I'd love to go to this one school I've picked out, but I have this huge burden on my shoulders, (well at least to me) which is holding me down. No I don't have any kids are anything like that!! lol,
The question today is not Do I want to? it's How will I?
The answer:
Coming Soon to a blog near you! Lol

Question/Comment of the day...
Here's my comment for the day:So I'm taking part in a very historical day yesterday with the inauguration of the 44th President of the U.S. and the 1st African American male to hold this position. A lot of people say that they never thought they'd live to see the day. I don't know that I agree. Strangely enough it didn't seem that far fetched to me, but then again my mind is very warped. Anyhow i'm saying all of this to get to my comment. Now don't get me wrong, I feel very bad about what happened to Sen. Kennedy at the luncheon. I truly hopes he recovers to working form and continues to be a productive citizen as he has been. However, I got very fed up with the media and how they kept having to get the update on him. Every 15 min or so. They even cut Russell Simmons' interview short so they could get the scoop on the Senator. Russell is trying to express his thoughts and feelings about the President's day and all they want to do is get side tracked. By this time Kennedy was in the hospital laughing and joking around. Stop diverting the attention and stay focused on Obama. He deserves to have all the attention. Oh and did anyone else see that Antawn Fisher lookin boy at the beginning when they showed that sailor dude? lol
