Sexed up



No, the heading isn't a mistake but I figured since the world is so sex consumed it would be a sure way to the get the attention of my readers today. I did an experiment in my page a couple years ago just to get a look inside the mind of people. On my facebook page I realized that when I wrote a poem or story centered around a strong sexual theme it received more attention. People had so much input and praised my writing skills. However, some of my best writings based on fellow writers are not those centered around sexual themes but in order for people to get a message it seems you have to associate it with sex.
  I am not trying to deter people from reading romance novels or engaging in sexual discussions I'm just trying to show that a balance is important. Take for instance the fifty shades of grey movie that has stirred so much attention. Why isn't the same attention or even more shown towards the movie Selma that is about the snuggles of our black people? Majority of my Jamaican people probably have no either what I am even talking about because there minds are so sexed filled. I was listening to an advertisement for an event the other day and it invited women to wear the shortest shorts they can find to the event. The following day the same company was speaking about doing more in the communites to help keep our young girls safe. So on one hand you are inviting women to walk around in their shortest shorts and on the other hand you are speaking about the safety of our young girls. Wouldn't it help your message if you would promote a whole message than be encouraging oversexualization on one hand.
    
   It really is a sad situation if in order to get people to buy something or listen to something it has to be about sex yet society is confused as to why our young people are engaging in sexual activities at such a young age. The picture linked to this article is what will get the attention of the readers many will come to look at this article perhaps to see if I am speaking about the young lady. Call me crazy but the world could go a day or two without being sold sex on every street corner but then again if people are buying why should the producers stop right?  We can't expect to produce future leaders who are knowledgable in areas of politics and economics when all they are eating and being fed is sex. What you put in is definitely what you will get out. What we are seeing now are just sex machines running up and down in our country and one day they will become overheated and just run dry because there is no substance within them. Today, I implore you to read something uplifting and inspirational rather than stuff your brain sells with nothing but sex.

Church ministry without God

Have you ever been to a church service and when the singers are singing you feel nothing? You can hear the words coming out of their mouths but they have no  conviction whatsoever? Music is one of the most important parts of church ministry and if God isn't in it, it shouldn't be called Gospel music to begin with. Some singers in church sing for self! They know they are blessed with beautiful voices so they use the church to showcase it but it isn't about ministry. It is simply to let people know what they have going on. They stand before you and they have blank expressions on their faces, while they sing such powerful lyrics. They aren't moved by it but they somehow expect that the congregation will be. The next issue is that of the modern day Gospel music. Call me old fashion but it isn't my flavour at all. Why should I have to be wondering whether I'm listening to Gospel or I'm at a dancehall event? Why does the church have to change itself to resemb...

Loving a black man that doesn't love me

Image source: Google Images His beautiful dark skin made rich from the earth, his physical strength supporting where I am physically weak, his beautiful smile and then the depth of his speech. In a world where the wrongs that he has done is spoken about more frequently than what is good about him. I see the beauty in black unions,I see the beauty in black souls connecting, I see beauty in being by his side. The issue is, he no longer sees beauty in me. We walk paths these days paved with the broken connections. Couples who once professed to be so deeply in love now pretend to not know each other. We walk paths  where you can pour the purest of love into the vessel of a man/woman and they remain empty. On one side, we have black men who believe that black women have lost their worth. They have lost the meaning of what it means to be a Queen. The black man believes that the black woman has wrapped herself in the labels that society has placed on her. The black woman is ofte...

The Jamaica of tomorrow

When shall the change come? Crime and violence ago continue and mash up Jamdung? Street lights come on at night and our window lids we shut tight tight No kids on the street, no time to meet and greet Why can't we no longer walk at nights? Why we don't have no peace? Police men guard the streets  Kids run quickly pass them not sure if they police or just undercover gunman and thief Thousands complete their university education but student loan awaits them in every gleaner publication Jamaica is such a beautiful nation, nice food and nuff happiness and sweet jubilation Wait a moment and turn the  TV off the international station Turn the dial to our local station No more happiness and sweet jubilation Blood flowing in the streets of poverty and ever increasing destruction You have the answers? Tell us how we need a change in politics Five years time and we still have the same corruption  You tell me to smile because better must come I ...
