Our worlds used to be so small

[Complexion]

You ever stop to think about this. There is simply no way most of us would ever be kicking it with so many people we'd never met. Nor would folk care about the opinions of pretty much the entire world. Thats wild when you consider it. For us it was mainly about the areas in which you roamed and were known and the rest was by the by.

Just to earn a rep, but what good is it now? She said, "Damn, I just stopped to say hi.... bye". I was too deep for you from day one that's why we never had relations, continued in my own zone...

Whereas with these new jack kids not only is the world at their fingertips its also what they're competing against. Can you picture that? To them its like water and fish but still there must be quite the implication when you consider the way our wetware was programmed to theirs in terms of sheer scale and getting noticed.

Life just bugs me out sometimes. Our brains compared to theirs in a few generations will be the same kind of flip we must seem to cavemen and we're living in the middle of it as we witnessed the shift between the old and new world orders as they reset the stage for the next level of the Game we're all playing using our Souls as credits...

The age of Adventure is over.

Au contraire, I do believe its just begun because the greatest adventure rests inside your chest as that is from where your consciousness springs into manifestation in your being. Some people are starting to wise up to this and thats why there will definitely be some type of schism between the augmented and naturals on the next stage as there is always place for conflict and this will be it.

The ultimate haves and have nots but on a global scale between those who are logged in from birth and those that generationally refuse (probably due to the new religionified remix) to chop it up with computer chips modulating their awareness. That era is really going to be something else compared to this.

Its not the end of the world, but you can see it from here...

I purposely ride around with no GPS often. I love getting lost. I'll ask people IRL for spots to hit up instead of hitting google.

When I'm out I don't be on my phones at all. I make a conscious effort of it. I stay approaching people and sometimes its almost shocking the response I get

Thing is, how do you give a map to someone thats marked with a place they don't even think exists? Straight out the gate they disqualify themselves from admittance due to what they think is and isn't without ever questioning who wrote that script that plays in their head.

Thats wild when you consider the implications but those dwelling within the ever so comfortable and familiar cell of the Mind Made Prison will think the wise are idiots for even suggesting this.

For real, its an individual regression with collective progress as provided by tech but you'd be surprised how many don't see this because they're trying to get ahead of the rest without questioning the narrative that makes them sprint.

All day. I don't carry a phone and haven't for a long time but its dope taking a trip with a scrap of paper and a sense of direction. That way you're alwayz into something...

Rejoice in the fact that a thousand years from now, planet earth will still exist. And you will be living in it. Right now, you may be black. Next time you may be a Jew. Or Italian. Or Bangladeshi. Short or tall.

Play your cards right on this earth so you may gain eternal life.

What exactly does it mean to live eternal life? It is the god given grace to play a coveted role whenever your time comes again to venture out into the world.

There is a repository of souls in heaven (well, a place you might think of as heaven), where an administrator decides whose turn it is and in what role you are to be designated. Pray you find the grace to avoid the many endless and pitiful existences that are readymade for the damned.

I was just telling a story about being in Germany in ‘06. Black American men were a novelty. Women had to have us. To see us in person instead of on MTV. They stare at our lips, envy our swag, touch our hair, worship our D.


O what a time. That is gone. I used to go to Monterrey, Mexico in the 2000’s and early 2010’s. The women would look at me like I was an Alien. Pre-social media was great. Even in Belize my cousins would hang off my stories trying to imagine what it was like to travel, go to war, have disposable money.


2010 was the decade of transition. My daughters will never understand what it was like to go outside without your wallet or cell phone. To not have all the world’s knowledge at your fingertips. To have dial up internet.

Us who were born in the 80’s probably have the best life and experiences.

Our parents had to fight for the right to live. The generations after us didn’t get to experience life without a cellphone nor internet.

You ever think the scripts are set and I mean that in the sense that the characters are who they are but the actors (or Souls) that step in to the Game give the roles their own twist when its time for their performance. Off in the wings the spectators are watching as one turns to the next and says:



As they see someone destroying a role they killed on their spin because their flavor is lacking and they just don't bring it.

Us who were born in the 80’s probably have the best life and experiences.

Word, the irony is that many modern peeps are all caught up on the whole "World is flat" thing and don't click that thats actually referring to what phones and the net did because before that you were around your circle and that was it. That was your sphere of influence. Now thats been squared and life is socially mediated via a screen, even between kin. That is pretty wild when you think about it.

Tell me why my battle buddy called me yesterday. He was drunk and with his boys and around midnight. He told me to go outside and show them the sun. He’s in Mexico and I’m in Okinawa.

The internet got the world questioning everything. It’s amazing and terrifying.
