Bye Bye MySpace

I had to get the hell off of MySpace so I deleted my page late last night.

It was fun while it lasted but at some point you have to get tired of guys trying to holla at you online. I’ve been on BP for YEARS and that shit is soo old! There’s nothing you can say to me to make me want to meet you or be interested in you so unless you’re a published author or a writer. I don’t really have time to play, “let’s get to know each other”. For what? So you can try to come over and hit? Dude, I’m straight. I have a wealth of people I can call for that.

Besides the caliber of men on MySpace is sad. There was not ONE man on MySpace that I ran across who had accomplished ANY type of goal. They are all still in the process of trying to figure themselves out and while that is a very important step in the growth process ~yawn~ I’m over the desire to play the inspirational role in a man’s life. I don’t ever want to feel like I have to PUSH a man to want more for himself again.

Futhermore MySpace is an absolute waste of time. I have too many goals that I want to accomplish to spend time laughing at some random meme or wasting my brain cells entertaining someone who has nothing better to do with their time than write random strangers notes.

I’ve always been the type of person who wanted MORE for myself. I want to be a better person, I want to change lives, I want to make a positive impact on the WORLD, I want to be rich. I just can’t be around people who don’t at least want SOME of that.

My girl Anna says that everyone can’t have the same dream. She says everyone can’t be millionaires and I guess I agree. To me life is more than a party. It’s more than a designer handbag or a meeting the right man to marry.

For me life is a mission.

I will only get one life to try to make a difference in this world. I can’t waste it politickin with people who have no goals. The worst thing you can say to me is, “I have no plans for my future.” Immediate turn off.

I don’t see myself accomplishing what God has put in my heart to accomplish by rubbing elbows with petty people. I can’t just sit back and relax and frolick my youth away. There’s too much to be done. Too many people to reach. Too many people to encourage. I’ll take a break after I make my first million.

I feel like Mr. Schindler in Schindler’s List. Remember at the end when he stood outside with all of the Jews he saved from death in the Holocaust? He looked at each one of the workers he had purchased to work in his factory, a factory that never actually produced anything. He purchased them so that they would not die in the gas chambers. And even though he saved so many, he still noticed the ring on his finger and cried because he realized that if he had thought to sell it, he could have saved two more lives.

I have a burden on my heart. My heart says SAVE THEM. I want to rescue those who are imprisoned by the hatred of others. I want to rescue them from hating themselves. I don’t want another day to go by where someone is continuously being conditioned to hate themselves because the people in their life don’t know how to love. I want to rescue everyone from the feelings I experienced for the first 26 years of my life.

My mission is to love, to encourage and to help others build a better life for themselves. I know it sounds grand. I know it sounds far reaching but I honestly believe that I can do anything. There’s no difference between me and Maya Angelou or Oprah Winfrey or even Sojourner Truth except, well, they have had a few more years on earth than I have had.

But don’t consider your dream too be small just because my dream seems so big. Anna’s dream is to have a loving husband and wonderful kids and to enabling her family to live off of one income just in case something happens to her or her future husband. Her dream is no less significant than mine. I try to remind her to believe that it will happen for her one day. See, she wants a family as much as I want to save others from their personal hell.

Whoever you are, develop a dream for yourself. Dream bigger than anyone you know and realize that if you can SEE IT in your mind, it is attainable. No other human being on earth has superpowers that helped them to accomplish things that you could never accomplish. Those that you see who are successfully living the lives that you want to lead may have had some economical or social advantages but it is STILL attainable.

Just think of all the people around you who are without hope for their lives. If you make it, it will impact them. If you step out on faith and believe and TRY, it will encourage them. You can change your entire lineage by making a decision to TRY. Even if you fail, which you won’t if you never give up, your kids will see your tenacity and will take the ball from there and keep running.

Don’t just think about today. Be excited about tomorrow. Give up those brain wasting habits like MySpace as well as entertaining people in your life who have given no though to their future and the future of their children.

Unless ofcourse, you have already accomplished your goals. Then you can CHAT away and BLOG all day!
