" I believe religion shoud be your spiritual connection with
the Supreme Being (Allah, Jehovah, Buddah,God whatever
you may call that being). The process of becoming one with
your Creator cannot be forced upon you, it must come naturally.
We kill each other everyday because we believe we are better
than the next person". (NX)

THE OFFICIAL PEACE ONE DAY SONG - Nadirah X with Jimmy Cliff,
Mudbone, Dave Stewart and Camar
PEACE ONE DAY IS ON 21st OF SEPTEMBER.
Sometimes when i look around, all i see is misery, despair, frustration and pain...
Then, i close my eyes, take a couple deep breaths, RELAX...And ask myself, "WHAT IF all I saw was what I WANTED TO SEE?" Then, I open my eyes. I see the sun, I see the blue sky, I see my girls smiling back at me, I see life...
And then, lo and behold, I see nothing but OPPORTUNITY...

Meditaton is nothing but putting the mind aside, putting the mind out of the way, and bringing a witnessing which is always there but hidden underneath the mind. This witnessing will reach to your center, and once you have become enlightened, then there is no problem. Then bring the mind in tune with you.
i am loving the music off the i don't know what word to use i'm not an rapper person reminding me of when queen first came out love true hip hop though
Had a thought while driving home and I wanted to share it. Hope you don’t mind…
When we truly let go of past hurts, hang-ups and disappointments and choose to live in the moment, in the now, in the PRESENT, life truly can be a GIFT.
