the snooze button

So, I enjoy talking about a vast amount of subject matter. As long as I can learn something new, gain more perspective and a greater understanding of my creators creation, but the people I am close to, my family, mostly choose to snooze.

It's crazy the amount of BS and advertising and espionage they will put up with in every aspect of their so called waking life, but it's actually more like a lucid dream because they are not fully in control of their senses.

I am not by any means saying I am more connected to the creator than anyone else, but I will say that I seek his guidence and lean to my faith for understanding and I realize that that is a concious effort.

But so much passive unconcious time is seized by those who understand its value. I want to know how to wake up people. To convince them to value their time and their individual walk with the creator that takes place all day every day over all else. Money cars clothes......GOD! It's enough already....or never enough....but I listened to this Eryka Badu song talking about "what if there was no niggas only master teachers? I'd stay wake."

So I'm saying. When you wanna stay wake, but the people around you, your loved ones, your family, wants you to press snooze and go back to sleep for a few more minutes, you know, shut up, stop being so deep, what do you do?

You find somebody else to talk to. Why should you walk around like an idiot because somebody else wants you too.
