  Now, why you gonna make me cuss you out?!

  Awwww, man, I gotta share this story to set this up right.  Years ago, my dad was dating this woman and he was playing with her by pushing her around and wrestling with her.  Now, she clearly didn't like this so she told my dad to stop.  Of course, my dad being hard headed kept on messing with her.  She warned him again that she did not like a man 'man handling her' and that she didn't like wrestling.  I say again, my dad being hardheaded kept messing with her.  The next thing I know, "PA POW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"!  That's right, she hit him with a two piece:  One to the gut and the other to the shoulder.  NOOOOOOW, my dad wanted to get serious and said "Woman, are you crazy?!" She then said, "Those were warning punches. The next time will be to your face!!".
  
  Now, I'll be the first to tell you that THAT was funny as hell to me! However, it did bring up a unique point.  Isn't it interesting how people will PUSH you to show that OTHER side of your personality EVEN when you warn them??
  
  I've had always had the feeling and belief that we all have a DARK side of us.  You know what I'm talking about! That side of our personality that we keep on lock so people don't think ill of us.  However, it's like the Pit BULL in the fenced in yard in the dog house.  Even though you don't have a sign on the door that says "MAD DOG", you keep the key handy in case you need to let the DOG out on someone.
  
  The thing that I am always amazed is how people can see the dog, hear the dog, KNOW the dog will bite and will continue to antagonize the dog until FINALLY, BAM, tear a knot out yo ass!!!!  LOL
  
  People, I will never understand it.  Now, some people have a SICK sense of pleasure of watching someone get gangsta.  True story, BAAAAAAAAAAAACK in the day when I was pledging, I remember my line being sent to this one young lady's room who was a member of Delta Sigma Theta.  The running comment was that previous pledges in the past had been sent to her with the task of asking for one of her 'undergarments' (yes, juvenile, I know).  Well, this Delta had a reputation FOR cussing out pledges for asking for these items.  And HERE we go and all I could think was "Why would you do this to us KNOWING we gonna get cussed out??!!".  Fortunately, she didn't do it this time but you get the point.
  
  Then, there are those persons out there who just don't believe that someone will put the dogs on them.  How many times have you had someone "Push" you and you tell them stop before it gets ugly and they STILL do it??  You know what I'm talking about.  They keep on and on and finally BAM, you gotta break out that GANGSTA side of you!
  
  Listen, some people just NEED to get that RIGHTEOUS cussing for them to recognize that if you keep playing in the kitchen, the skillet of hot grease will eventually get knocked off the stove and BURN your ass!!

  There's always one

  I know you may think this is funny but I used to tell people all the time that “Everyone will experience at least ONE PERSON in their life that they had NO business messing with. “.  
  
  Now, you gotta follow me on this logic.  You know, we all have had our share of dates, relationships, boyfriends and girlfriends, etc.    And yes, we all know that we’ve had bad ones and good ones.  However, I’m a firm believer that we all will have that ONE person that we just can’t get out of our system.  This one person who makes us abandon our values, change our ways, bend our perspectives, or just simple makes us act a FOOL!!!
  
  Come on ladies, you know the one I’m talking about.  Remember when you used to say “I never will stay with a man who cheats on me!”.  The next thing you know, you’re with THIS knucklehead and 4 cheats, 3 skeezers, 2 caught in the actions and a ‘partridge in a pear tree’ later, you are STILL dealing with this knucklehead!
  
  OOOOOO, don’t swell up too quick, fellas.  Remember, when you used to say “Ain’t no female ever goin play me for a sucka.  I ain’t no punk!”?  The next thing you know, this female got you so strung out that she has you waiting by the phone for her to call while she’s getting her swerve on with another DUDE!!
  
  And then what happens? You guessed it, the CRASH AND BURN syndrome! What is the CRASH AND BURN syndrome??  Very simple.  When you finally realize that you have been ‘played’, ‘turned out’, or ‘taken advantage of’, you feel like you’ve crashed landing.  Your whole foundation has been destroyed because you allowed this person to remain in your life infinitely longer than they should have.  Your friends don’t look at you the same (at least, in your mind).  You have lost your confidence.  You develop significant doubt about who YOU are.  Like a major CRASH, you feel that your whole life is destroyed because this ONE person threw a monkey wrench into your program.  Then comes, THE BURN!!  Once you have built yourself back up, you break out the Blow Torch and BURN anyone who crosses your path.  If anyone even HINTS at being like the people who tried you in the past, then you break out the lighter fluid and BOOM, THAT’S A FIRE!!
  
  Well, here’s the part I really want to share.  You needed this and no matter how painful it was, it was a good thing!  Now, I am not advocating that anyone EVER go through this but here’s my logic.    Contrary to popular belief, you have NOT lost your flow.  Your friends?? They are just happy that you got that FOOT DRAGGA out of your life and out of your system.  Your family?   They are happy that you are happy and back in their life.  Here’s three simple points to help you look at this situation in a different perspective.  One, you are not weak, or a punk, or soft because of what happened.  No one can take the essence of YOU away from you.  Second, remember that whoever you meet NEXT is NOT necessarily going to be like the person who just tried you.  So before you break out the blow torch, give the person a chance to prove themselves before you bar-b-q them like a chicken wing.   Finally, the pain you go through today is in preparation for the blessings you will receive in the future.  You may have thought that you lost time by dealing with this person but what you did was gain a whole new level of YOU.  You now know what you don’t want and what you won’t deal with in the future.  Don’t look at your life as lost in time.  You are stronger for what you’ve gone through and even stronger since you’ve come out of it.  Always remember, the lessons you learned from this limited liaison will lift you towards the life you are destined to live.
