Chivalry: A Four Part Harmony
*The Baritone Boogey* (Foundation)
Let's start with a somewhat generalized retelling of it's History. As many know, Chivalry has one main point of reference that is easily noted by all. This point in history is known as the Middle Ages, Medieval Times. Knighthood is generally it's prime association. However, i would like to make this more broad, so that it may reach a bit further than that. I want it to be taken more personally.
The Idea of Chivalry is easiest understood as a code of ethics introduced by EVERY civilization from the dawn of time. This code is noted by the term and social station of The Gentry. The Gentry is an elevated class of persons who are so elevated because of either lineage, value to the social ruler (i.e. Monarch, President, Chief etc.), Or appointment by majority society (i.e. Statesman). Now the code between these groups would have to be something that required poise, respect, and a certain level dexterity. This in itself is the rough idea of Chivalry. Every religion, Career, and Government has a method that derives from this framework.
*Now There's your Baseline*
*Tenor: Let Me SET the Mood RIGHT*
Now, if you've read to this point, then you're probably wondering... "Yea..so?" But hear me out. Now were gonna just dive in, burn some highway...dig?
So what does this have to do with you? Well, let's modernize this ideal. Why is it so hard for our generation to adopt such an ideal? There will be many things said here. "I didn't grow up with a father to teach me..."," I didn't have a good mother", ". Now I am not the one to downplay or degenerate anyone or their story. However, it is my Duty as a Gentleman to bring these people back to a sense of reality. Excuses are only meant to justify something the general public has no care or desire for. Your background does not limit you in any aspect of your life. If you want to hurt, abuse, destroy and live for yourself. Then become an astronaut and kindly stay on the moon. The principle is simply How would you like to be treated? Rather How would you like your son, your daughter, your Hero to be treated. A gentleman is a Rational anomaly. Modern day Hero. But before I get too poetic. Just know that everyone has the capacity to be Civil, and in turn, Gentleman and Lady.
*Soprano- Fall in Love with the MELODY*
Now, imagine...A world were everyone is coagulating...well meshed...working in unison. A well oiled machine. This is what can make anything better. Being civil can immediately destroy any negativity presented in any situation. How many times have you gone to the store and the clerk violently drops your change on the counter and brushes you along. Instead of allowing that negativity to pass to you, Simply say "have a wonderful day ma'am/sir" That negative energy immediately turns positive and the day for everyone will improve.
Every women in the world promotes and boasts the death of chivalry. And Many men weep or agree in the midst of this heresy. So who will stand against this propaganda slurring the existence of Me and quite notably...YOU? Every man believes they ca change the world. I truly know and believe every man has the ability to change this thought. Why is there such an overwhelming desire for gang related, un educated, frivolous men? Flaunting their entire worth on their person? These desires are passed down by previous generations. The problem is not in the passing, but they never pass the warnings. So countless people follow these trends, and when they finally fall prey or victim to them, they blame the non-existence of a proper ideal. Fear not... nothing ever dies...so long as we believe.
*Alto*- Irrepressible Sound
Now, the sharp uncensored and merciless blade of truth. Chivalry is Unfortunately as it once was...DEAD. However as all things, it has risen as a phoenix, never to be as it once was. Chivalry is only the beginning to a new set of ethics, morals, and beliefs. We are constantly molding this idea into what will fit into the mold of our lives. Some will see a more classical mold, while others will have innovative and new ways of showing this. Instead of courting a spouse, we may forge a new ritual. But as all things, we must first embrace what has been set into history. We cannot erase the past, we can only stand as a contrast.
Live as a PILLAR of the EARTH...be outstanding in all that you may do, and if you fall because of it, you will only fall into the arms of adoration. We must learn as men AND women, to uphold remind, re-teach, redefine a custom that is marked as a staple in human existence.
Now I'm not saying to men that they should hold every door, bow to every women. Nor am I saying you will be just in all of your actions. I mean as benjamin franklin meant it; "Strive to be morally good." This means we must learn that our actions will be inflicted back onto us, we must be aware of how we dispose of our feelings, thoughts, and actions. It matters not if you have someone to tell you something is good or bad. We already socially what is right and wrong. Treat Your women with the respect you have for yourself, or that what you wish others to treat you. Women, i charge you with the same. Unity is Utopia.... Only together can we live in this Harmony...Chivalrously.

Do you believe there's intelligent life on other planets?
I believe the possibility is yes, the problem we mostly think of when it comes to this is; our galaxy our solar system. That's like looking at a road map of Wisconsin and saying... THIS IS IT...we are the planet of Wisconsin! We just need to realize that if human nature's innate goal is evolution (and Human in the sense of an animal, not as a intellectual), then we can't deny that we share this common goal with all things. So is i possible another planet somewhere in the eternal mapping of the universe has sentient beings such as us? The ability is there...we just havnt found it...so socially it cant exist.

Live Freely
Live Freely
I just watched the Entire Rocky series, and it was actually inspiring.The idea of Rocky balboa is not merely just a fictional boxing legend, but more of the perpetuated ideal of "never surrender." I learned that you have to truly learn to "slip the jab." Meaning of course in boxing to simply dodge and counter. I think this should be applied to everyday life. Life is the most inevitable and irrepressable force next to Death, and we must learn to "slip it's jabs." There will always be something trying to wear you out, weaken and demoralize you. It doesnt matter how sharply or swiftly you you attack it. What matters is how you react to it's merciless blows. Some may turn to friends in family to help train for everyday's fight. Life's journey is a labrynth, fortunately there is still hope for when we are lost. Remember my friend's...Slip the JAB! For it's merely Just Another Blow!

The Game...The Blog; A 2 Part Harmony
Thursday, February 25, 2010
I'm New...
Is this blog post centered around women? Maybe I'm tired of empty compliments from women. Let's try something, tell me the truth, I'm a nice guy but I'm just not fly, you need a man with money not some young philosophizing dummy. You wish to find a man like me, but you'd rather fuck my opposite. Sorry for the lingo. I think I'm frustrated that i hear so many good things about me, only to be slapped in the face by gentle temptations based off of fallacies. Tell me, is my friend based based on my wealth? I never talk about my money. Wise people have already told me, when you find your wealth someone on the other side will find a way to exploit it. I'm going to just continue on my path. My artwork has been getting stronger (sorry no new artwork for the blog in this post, promise some for the next one), my writing has found more feeling, and my mind has begun to swell with all types of knowledge. I'm not sure where I wanted to go with this post, but i needed to bleed some frustration. i'll continue this another time...
Gotta get this off my chest
Fake floozies flagging fashion.
How dare you comment on my Attire..
While yours hold the ashes of frequent fire
Rags, commoner, washed in commodes.
You smell of the burning tar of roads.
Demon soul, art taker
Corrosive heartache, mind shaker.
ramdom rant...
