only in America

As I’m caught by the train at the corner of my job (typical routine getting in and out of my job) I’m next to a lumber/hardware store called Nachon. Everyday that I pass by no matter the time whether its 7am or 7pm the sidewalk stays packed with illegal immigrants of all kinds just posted waiting for people to offer them construction jobs, or any job I’m sure… In the past I’ve witnessed cops pass by as I am and they turn they’re lights/sirens on as a “signal” and everyone splits and the cop goes on his way. But today I witnessed a few of them getting a job :). A ford expedition that purchased products was pulling out and called over a group of men then that group called over another few guys from across the parking lot and they all came sprinting like if they were running to a finish line with $1,000,000 waiting for them. In a instant all 7 of them jumped into the back seat and the driver sped off. This all happened in the matter of 10 seconds or less. Just an observation.

I’d give almost anything to be there right now…

it’s the first thing he said in two weeks of court… he stood and said…

“You know, your honor, throughout this entire court case, you haven’t looked me or my attorney in the eye once. It’s obvious that you’re not here in the search for justice, so therefore, there’s no point in me asking for a lighter sentence. I don’t care what you do cause you’re not respecting us, this is not a court of law; as far as I’m concerned, no justice is being served here, and you still can’t look me in the eye. So I say, do what you wanna do, give me whatever time you want, because I’m not in your hands, I’m in God’s hands.”

Realest shit ever….

never being spoiled… has caused me to be too grateful?

I often feel as though people don’t feel me when I’m put in a good opportunity or good things are given to me. I believe I am susceptible to being overly appreciative of things because I’ve struggled in many if not all aspects at one point in time. therefore progress of any kind that is granted to me I applaud it more than the “average person” would. don’t get me wrong, I aspire for bigger and better things but I am always grateful for every step along this journey, no matter how minimal.

a lil inspiration by a quote I read from my friend and it really got me thinking…

we live in a generation where we consume ourselves with history. we want to change it, delete and un-do things… But the past is untangeable. Its turned into a situation where all that people worry about now is whats happened prior… rather than worrying about creating what’s to come. create history today how you want it to be projected tomorrow… don’t wait until tomorrow to regret and want to change what’s been done. there’s no time like the present and once your chance has gone, there’s no undoing it so why trouble yourself over it. Its a hard concept to grasp but it will save you a lot of heart/headache and sleepless nights… At the end of everyday Life Goes On, no matter the history so go along with it.
