insights

interlude: a pause, break, or gathering of information, thoughts, or revelations; typically used within stage plays, often witnessed between muzik, and constantly offered throughout life.

you are allowed to have your own definition.

this written Word, this piece of pages, this book of interludes, is offered through way of Everything that be; through the mind, mouth, and hands of I, Mwanga Tsidqenu. and through way of Everything that be, within these words, at some times when I say I, I am not only speaking of I, but of you, the reader; we, whom is of Everything that be.

each one of these interludes belongs to we, unless stated otherwise; then, they belong to us. some came through way of I, some came through way of others, and some are seemingly misquoted entirely.

for the sake of humanness, I do not remember each source that has a source; besides the source where all wisdom, insights, and virtues birth from.

there is no specific order to the interludes within this piece of pages; besides the one your mind crafts due to corresponding vibrations you may already have.

there is no specific order to the intervals of interludes within this piece of pages; besides time. in year ad-2010-ce, and on into year 2020, many interludes were shared; few have been placed here.

the names of the intervals within this piece of pages, may or may not necessarily relate to the content within them;

to know, is to read.

I speak of the Most High much, and refer to it, as Et, GOD, or Univerze. Et, for Everything. I use these titles to encompass a base, relatable summary of the One (or Collective) you may believe to be. the Being in reference, to you, may not be a being at all, but an energy/feeling, considered by many different names, through many different beliefs, with many different experiences, over many different lands/spaces.

I speak of we melanated people much, and refer to us as Black. until a [re]newed name bestows pon we, Black encompasses all of us melanated beings. and I know highly of we, as I continue to speak mostly to us.

if you plan on opening this piece of pages and randomly selecting interludes to read, then do what you will. though, if you plan on opening this piece of pages and reading it from beginning to end, then have patience and understanding; to make that process seemingly smoother in method, when you reach 7 billion-sumin within each interval, then you have made it to a middle point within that said interval.

1 [re]start. 2 piece. 3 baby steps.

and in the end, all that may save us is Love and Grace

only GOD can judge me

- Tupac

***

"just because we don't know where we are,

doesn't mean we're lost"

- Tommy Pickles

***

here are 2 types of people:

those whom notice their mistakes and let ‘em hold them back/down, and those whom notice their mistakes and let ‘em motivate them to do/be better

***

it feels good to feel good; Love thy Love

***

become free from anything that holds you back from freedom

***

thy must Love thyself, if thy truly Love another

***

one of the best things you may possibly do for another human in need, is to listen to them;

understand them.

firstly, you'll never know what you'll learn.

secondly, you'll be giving someone a great gift.

thirdly, it's highly possible that you may save a life.

***

true Love is like the pyramids. built pon a trusting foundation. built with solid, heavy rock. step by step. to the top, where it all comes together; and meant to last forever, through any weather/whether.

***

in order to be successful at anything in life, I know I will have to make plenty mistakes. because with mistakes, comes knowledge. and with knowledge, comes success.

***

I come from a long line of powerful, beautiful, and intelligent women

***

how soon 'not now' becomes never

- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

***

life tends to be a bit brighter when you have the right light shining on it. when you have something to live for, you'll tend to live a lil longer. find your reason, and learn to Love it.

***

if I lacked Love, I will be nothing at all

- Ms. Lauryn Hill

***

when in doubt, shut your mouth

***

some people will begin with a lie.

one single little lie.

they will let that lie carry on and let it grow.

they will cover up that lie with other lies, protecting it and letting it manifest.

but in the end, when that one little lie indefinitely finds its way to the light,

it will explode!

destroying everything in its range.

be mindful.

***

"when there is no enemy within,

the enemies outside cannot hurt you"

- African Proverb

***

yea, people do indeed change,

but sometimes it's simply just you learn more about them.

some traits, we are born with.

it just takes time, money, hunger, pain, fear, or Love, for them to show.

***

geagte mede-Afrikaans en ander mense,

die waarheid sal geopenbaar word in die einde

***

sticks and stones may break your bones,

but simple words could kill you

***

there are only 2 things in life that is promised to you as a living person: your day of birth, and your day of death.

everything else is just maybes, probabilities, and hopefullies.

***

sometimes, you'll have to encourage yourself;

let alone everyone/everything else.

that hero you've all been waiting on is closer than you think.

***

the best part about mistakes,

is the learning experience that follows.

***

everyone has a story behind what made them, them;

and what got them thus far.

know that.

don't take any one person for granted.

***

I'm proud to be Black;

Black is beautiful!

***

I'm not saying all girls are perfect because we all know that's not true. but why be unfaithful to her if she was true to you?

- Tupac

***

I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. hate cannot drive out hate; only Love can do that.

- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

***

life is too short and precious to be anything less than happy and confident

***

even the greatest suffer sometimes

***

some people will see you shining and turn off the light;

lest they not know that you shine even brighter when it's dark

***

there's a thin line between sacred and secular

***

the true battle is in the mind;

no matter the size, speed, or strength of the enemy,

the wise and the knowledgeable will always have the upper hand
