Boys of Baraka is a new film about some Baltimore at risk children being shipped to Afrika to start over from the sludge of drugs, lack of education and hopelessness that pervades inner city Baltimore. Its funny that it does indeed "take a Village", literally. I spend the weekend at my ghetto house in Baltimore with my brother, talking to 14 year old drug dealer neighbors, even hiring some of them to help with the cleanup. But they didn't like the hard work and quit after an hour and half, citing the fact that hustling drugs was easier and they made more money. An older one, the shy one of the group, a 21 year named Darren, actually is the Baltimore City chess champion. He has a one year old baby, of course the mom takes care of his child...we took him to Little Italy for dinner, his first Italian food. I'd love to watch this film (!)

Relationship



Relationship

A real relationship is a pure bond, is a psychic bond with a lot of responsibility.

We share in each other’s lives, particles of matter and space and time fall and reflect off of our skin, our eternal energy plays, grows and wiggles with each the force of our energy.

Mother’s meet and get to know you, children ask who this person is, roommates smile wantonly as they try to cook around the big lug in the kitchen: “The boyfriend”.

Nature rushes past our ears carving into our limited time, like a stream cuts into rock. Slow but steady.

A relationship is a dance.There is weight and it is gyrated, and you dance close, sometimes pull away, but always end up with your noses touching and looking into each other’s eyes. The best relationships are this way.

When you let somebody into your life, it is unavoidable to go with your gut feeling, your instinct. When you decide to let someone into your life, there is a chance that you could have mistakenly missed some signs that relationship wasn’t going to work. But you didn’t care. You were determined to take the person and their Chi and love them no matter what. So strong was the reaction and attraction. You just wanted to live and feel with them, touch their fingertips. Breathe in their musk, so exotic a smell. Their body so exciting to explore. You see if they enjoy pleasure different ways. How far of a return back to their pleasure center by doing it this way versus that- it is seeing how God himself works. Like children, it is innocence and genetics and evolution, but it is refreshingly pure.

Collective Space Mission


Collective Space Mission Statement:

“Collective Space seeks to find, negotiate and broker real estate deals for charities, not-for-profit corporations and various people that serve the greater Good. We believe that all worthwhile organizations deserve peace, stability and a safe base with which to carry out their all-important missions.”

[I just brainstormed this potential business idea after experiencing the maelstrom of communications after placing feelers out to see if my brother’s N.E. DC warehouse could be rented to the charitable good versus for-profit corporation. So far: a youth development program, a Buddhist organization (needing room for a bookstore/meditation hall and living quarters) and other organizations have expressed interest. In the youth development group’s case, the landlord is giving them two weeks to completely vacate the property. It made me realize that the current real estate environment is pushing out many worthwhile organizations. DC is losing its good and worthwhile organizations who are unable to aggressively negotiate in this accelerated profit-taking environment.] Comments?

Noam Chomsky: "Chomsky says that children are born with a knowledge of the principles of the grammatical structure of all languages, and this inborn knowledge explains the success and speed with which they learn language."
