UNIVERSAL TRUTHS

1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.

14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this - ever.

15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello?!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?

16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.

17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

18. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.

19. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.

20. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.

21. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the heck was going on when I first saw it.

22. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.

23. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.

24. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

25. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?

26. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent an ass from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!

27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever..

28. Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year?

29. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.

30. As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers.

31. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

32. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet my behind everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!

Facebook Is the Devil.

Social networking is making connecting people easier than it's ever been. This is great for those in business, club promoters, stalking old flames, or for those who have trouble interacting with people in real life and whose life revolve around the innanet, yeah I said innanet.

So in the 21 years I've been breathing, I've been an active member of Myspace, friendster, twitter, and Facebook. 2 of which have been deleted, the other 2 are still active.

I'm personally enjoying twitter a lot. Random thoughts of many different folks all conveniently organized for you to read and reply. No picture whoring, no chat feature, you just enjoy it for what it is.

Facebook on the other hand, is the devil. I know you've heard this saying before, and you've also heard that it ruins relationships. Facebook tells everyone and anyone what you've done, what you're doing, public wall posts, and what you're going to do. A stalkers dream.

A current aggrivation of mine is texting folks.. yet you don't get a reply. Sign on to facebook, and by golly look who's on? Peoples' priorities are starting to get seriously jacked. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought cell phone's were more personal? I'll twiddle my thumbs while you come up with a valid explanation as to why you feel your social network needs exceed your personal ones. Any day now.

With that being said, I'll probably be closing my facebook account within the next week. Going to allow myself as well as others time to gather all appropriate contact information to reach me once I remove myself from the facebook world.

Feel free to leave your AIM/SKYPE names as well as blogsites.

Relationships.

For most individuals, they want to one day have that ideal relationship. That one person they can call their other half, perhaps even their better half.

Relationships go through cycles.

The beginning is filled with constant smiles, butterflies, hand holding, and unconditional affection.

Once you get comfortable around one another, most relationships begin to settle into their own niche.

What people fail to realize is that relationships aren't as easy as they are cracked up to be. They take an honest and equal effort on both parts for full functionality. People start slacking with the affection, the kind words often go unheard for a longer period of time than they should.. and the relationship begins to unravel.

Love is a living thing. Just like any living thing it has its essential needs.. love, respect, and most importantly attention. Without these 3 things, relationships become weak and eventually perish.

What I've learned throughout the years is that love is not for the selfish. Although they are often times granted the rare opportunity that many strive for in their lifetime, it's that much better if it's a mutual act.

Each relationship is different, but then one you should value the most, is your own.

Love it, respect it, and most importantly embrace it, for everything that it is and will ever be.

Weezy Writes A Letter To His Fans

Whether you love him or hate him, you know Dwayne Carter II better known as Lil Wayne. He's topped the charts for months upon months and has an undeniable "swagger" that cannot be replicated or denied. His recent incarceration has left many of his fans heartbroken and have lead them to write to him. As a Weezy fan, I personally appreciate him as a man and an artist this much more after seeing this:

During my prison stint, I want my fans to know I love you. I want all of you to know that I appreciate all the mail I get, and this is my way of saying thank you. The F is for Family, Friends, and Fans.

Love. Live. Life. Proceed. Progress. That’s who I am and who I’ll always be. You see, we’re all living on borrowed time, so I’m not worried about this situation. Life happens quick. The more time you spend contemplating what you should have done…you lose valuable time planning what you can and will do. Trying to tear down the past prohibits you from building up your future. So for my time here, my physical will be confined to the yard. My love and my spirit, however, know no boundaries.
I’m in good spirits man, for real. My kids

race through my mind all day. They know they were created with love, so love is how their life will be defined. I just hope my love and adoration for them provides a temporary bandage on a wound I unknowingly inflicted on them.

Real soon, you can catch me blogging for ESPN again thank you espn for not letting my passion for sports perish. I work out a lot because it helps pass the time. I read the Bible everyday. Jail didn’t make me find God, He’s always been there. They can lock me up, but my spirit and my love can never be confined to prison walls.

But this isn’t all about me, you are the reason for this letter. It’s because of you Rebirth went gold when critics aborted it. It’s because of you Young Money is and will always be a movement. If the weight of the world is on your shoulders, I beg of you, place it on mine. That’s the least I could do for you, after all you have sacrificed for me. If I could, I’d write each one of you back. Because of this, my team and I have created a website where you can view my letters. Each week I’ll answer as many questions as I possibly can.

Mia Edwards (Southern California) – I wish you nothing but the best for you. Earning your Masters in Library and Information Science is beautiful. I’ll keep you in mind whenever I decide to do an autobiography on my life.

Kelly Holloman (Brooklyn) – I still remember your. You have a great spirit. Thank you for the words and being a real fan. I love you.

Nurris Terrero (New York) – Your letter was so thoughtful and sincere. The way you worded everything left me in awe. Please send suggestions on books I should read. I look forward to checking them out.

For real, this will be the best way we can communicate for the coming months. The same way yall miss me, I miss yall, only 100 times more. To those who hate. Hate is only a form love that hasn’t found a way to express itself logically. Keep sending the letters and I promise keep responding. Thank YOU, thank YOU, thank YOU. No matter what they do to erase me, my love for you will always be permanent. Remember that. Take care. God bless.

Give me the patience that I need
To keep my piece of mind,
And with life’s cares, I hope, Dear God,
Some happiness to find.
Give me the courage to face life`s trials
and not to from troubles run.
let me keep this thought in mind.
“Thy Will,” not “Mine,” be done.

- “Pray”


He'll be answering letters and writing to his general fan base every week at http://www.weezythanxyou.com
