Blessed Ises, Ark I, Nazarite, Christ Salvation, all the i dem inna this reasoning, mi feel seh perhaps i should seh a likke more on this topic. mi feel like writing this day
Mek I start with the Honorable prophet on the video. Mi haffe seh i dont completely agree with the i. Perhaps saying i dont agree is too far but if mi had the pleasure and honor to meet the Ingel mi would reason with di I and ask di I if perhaps the i is using not so good a method fi teach di Truth. I man personally dont like looking for things that are not there fi show someone di truth. Because what happens is, if people find error in the i, they will believe your message is wrong as well. Anyone who hears this video, first thing they will do is check the bible, and they wont find any such thing about John, so di truth of why man like InI dont really play or follow football is lost to dem...just as we see in this very same topic from our young friend. Therefore, instead of clouding the matter with things that dont really matter, let ini teach who is to be taught by showing dem simplicity and clarity and Mek we deal wid di real matter at hand
because truthfully, as far as mi concerned, how football originated couldnt matter less to i, dat have nothing fi do wid why i dont play or follow football no longer as i used to before.
May i tell the i dem a likkle story...lol, mi try mek it quick
As mi sed, mi used to love football i had let it go long before. But then this last world cup came, inna Africa lol and mi tell iself, mi a go watch it,but mi nah go get caught up inna it as mi used to. But the more di ting progressed, more and more mi start fi feel dat love mi used to have for it...and it was a joy...or was it??
Mi have a bredrin who live not far from i, and mi pass thru once,twice a week. The door to his building opens by code, seen..or if yuh have the key, which i dont. Now we live in a white man country,seen, and ini see racism in many forms. So, going to dat building, it has happened to i where when mi almost reach the door, someone might be coming out or going in...and dem close the door right in front of I...i mean sometimes it is so blatant, mi jus haffe laugh...sometimes mi see someone rushing fi get dem key, open it and go in before mi reach the door. all this never got i vex or anything, mi nuh really care bout dem tings, I am in your country, if dat is how yuh treat your guests and visitors so be it, if yuh come to I land, i will treat yuh better, bless dem dat curse yuh even , Selassie I
But as mi seh, dat season i was watching the Cup,getting caught up as mi used to as a child, supporting mi African teams and all that...then hapened that game between Ghana and Uruguay ...if anyone remember seeing dat gane, the south american player acted shamefully, used his hands and denied the African team their certain win..........lol, and i lost it
That same evenin, i happened to walk over to mi bredrin yard, and guess wha happen....as mi approach the door, the door swing open. Someone had punched open button from inside and it open automatic , mi see this white lady just coming out and i could see two young children behind her.. Sha had one foot out the door, saw i coming and started to go back in....funny thing was...as mi seh, the door is operated wid button, once open, it stay open for a min, and swings back on its own automatically. So the door is now open, and as she is stepping back, she realize that, i am close enough to reach the door before it close...and this woman actually grabbed the door and started to pull it close, lol which is hard cos its on automatic hinges
Jah know, with the football thing fresh in my mind, mi acted a way i wouldnt normally ever act. Mi start fling words pon her, and she a stand there and stammer wid nothing fi seh
but then i happen to glance pon one of the youths wid her...and in dat instance, mi anger disappear Yuh know what i saw in his face ? Confusion.......I think that, growing up, we all come to a point where we realize that our parents are not perfect, they are but human like everyone else...and i kinda felt like i was present at the point this realization hit the youth....it was like he could see what his mother did was wrong, but he was young enough to be confused as to why the very person who teaches him right from wrong was doing wrong. when i saw his face, mi feel remorse and i stppoed immediately , gave him a reassuring smile that everything is alright.
This is the reason why earlier mi seh, i dont play or follow football no longer for the simple reason dat mi used to love it....the more yuh love di things of this world, expect pain and sorrow in equal measure
This is why mi seh, it was a joy...or was it ?
This is why along with football,mi mention things like music ...and all such thing of this world
For the joys given by this world cannot and will not last
InI seh, Joy that will never turn to sorrow, pleasure that will never turn to pain, this world will never give yuh dat, Only JAH ALONE
