Low Flyin' (In the Words of My Father)

Hey slow down girl!
Doin' all that low flyin'
You'll get there.
Those same people you passin' now
Gon' meet you at the light.

Daddy you know you right.

Yeah, so where you going?
And why you in a hurry?
You'd have plenty of time, if you got up early.

Noooo, that's too much like right.
Gotta stay up all night.
Daddy, I said you right!

Now you wanna run over everybody on the road.
Yeah...you love to low fly!
Daddy you know you right.

I know I'm right!
You ain't got to tell me!

but I don't have enough speeding tickets to line a dresser drawer

What you say?  Yeah, don't repeat it! You gon' too far!

I love you Daddy.

Random Controversy??? (In My Mind)

Why do we constantly say, “out loud”, but write “aloud”? So, what I was thinking in my head, I have said out loud. Now, you can read it silently or aloud. I am taking a brief intermission in my usual blog directions to insert one of my random pet peeves.

I totally respect the right of all people’s spirituality, faith, religion and beliefs.

With that said, there is one religion that I cannot understand why Christians do not belong. That is, Judaism. Jewish people are sons of Abraham, Christians are also sons of Abraham. Christians believe in Christ. Christ was a Jew. Who told us to go and develop Christianity?

I respect a lot of the Jewish doctrines and practices. What days are set aside to remind us of the common practices Christians share?  Church, bible study, revivals (at various churches), Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Christmas and especially Easter do not represent all Christians because  these days are not celebrated the same way.

Jews are basically one race, with one understanding. They aren’t Baptist, Methodist, Catholic, Pentecost, Apostolic, or any of the other denominations of Christianity. They aren't Jehovah Witnesses, Buddhists or heaven forbid the ambiguous agnostics (there was a sloppy pun in there somewhere). They are Jewish people who practice Judaism, AND you can be born a Jew or adopt Judaism as your preferred faith. It is for reasons that escape me also an ethnicity!

I ask this question of friends and family from time to time and always receive the same answer. Why are Christians not Jewish?  The answer is usually, "Jewish people do not believe in Christ". I correct them saying that they do not believe Christ is the Savior. However, many races of people have overthrown or murdered their own ruler or leader.  It does not stop them from being White, Black, Muslim or whoever. One does not simply change their race, religion ethnicity when their selected leader is dethroned or assassinated. Christians, believing in Jesus Christ should follow the practices of the Jewish faith. And for the record, Jewish people are Africans. There is no continent, locale or even state named Jewish. So, why call them Jewish Americans?

End of rambling...We can agree to disagree. I’m fine with that.
