a strong family is like the tree of life
Growing up without a father,a good role model to guide me, i was raised by my grandmother,
i grew up withouta good role model in my life,as a child and adolescence in brazil,today, i see a disturbing pattern going on, there are way too many single black mothers and too many fatherless children, the akan proverb says" life is war,family is army" why even in the conscious community people are breaking up,there is cycle,cant we reverse this cycle?
because it is the chidren that is loosing on the end.
the afrikan family is in dissarray and chaos, that means children which are the most vulnerable can end up on the hands of social workers, women can break down,if too many of our kids end up lost in the system, is because we are faultering somewhere, i mean both,men and women,i personally think, before entering any relationship, we need counselling from an elder, because many times brothers and sisters have emotional luggages from previous relationships,we also sometimes, didnt get along with our mothers or fathers( i grew up without both,since my father is native, but a complete muzungu in attitude,thoughts and everything else)
my mother is afrikan, but not good role model as well, only my grandmother was sort of role model.
afrikan boys need good examples of afrikan manhood, and afrikan girls need good examples of afrikan womenhood,the afrikan family is in crises,in order to pass the knowledge from generations to generations,we need a family structure, what good is it, if the mother is in one part of the globe and the father is other part of the globe, and because we dont have elders, counsels, there needs to bea plan or guide drafted for afrikan families to follow and roles of conduct,often times,because of D.O.P.E ( DESIRE TO OVERCOME THE PRESSURE OF EXISTENCE) the male end up living,because socio economic condtions,i know that in ROMERIKKKA, money is at the core of things, food,shelter and clothing are the basic necessities in life,i think it is important that when we start hitting rock bottom we see an elder( if there is one,a counsel, afrikan wholistic counselling).because this way the afrikan family wont fall apart, and children wont fall thru the cracks of the system and become another number and end upon the hands of social workers, women and children are the most vulnerable and in NORTH ROMERIKKKA, thats who they go after.
in the native population because of drugs and alcoholism, many children end up in foster care and then end up in youth detentions.
a strong family is like the tree of life,with healthy branchs,we have to put children first, we have to be able to work our differences, even if an elder has to be present,because our enemies will win this war,they are predators and we all know what predators do,they wait an opportunity to ambush you.
look what is happening in MALAWI, those fathers who are giving their children away so that madonna can kidnap dem and bring them to romerikkka so they can do rituals to them, is because those fathers can be easily bought and sold,madonna will eventually empty the whole of MALAWI, because unescrupulous fathers, here in north romerikkka,kanada and amerikkka, lets set an example for our children, we have some resources, we have to save for the rainy days, be more craft, spend less, not to be affraid to see an elder or counselling, brothers needa brothers circle,in order to heal ancestral wounds and whatever trauma caused by living in this sick western society and sisters need to do the samething as well.
we also need better mate criteria,a guide need to be drafted on courtship,kwk, because since there is no elders to guide us on that,remember,a strong family is like a tree of life,
for the survive-ALL of the whole and the total continuation of the afrikan family structure,if we are to survive this on slaught that is going on,we need to get our acts together,if we dont want to be sheeps taken to the slaughterhouse.
now a days, the old family structure has fallen to the wayside, western culture make it so that both parents have to work and hussle,a sacrifice has to be made in order for the well being of the child,we need to put our differences aside in order to work together, in order to survive this on slaught and attack on the afrikan family.
