"Why me God?" Part 2

"Why me, God?"

By Norris, after spending 14 years in prison with over 4 stints in solitary confinement. This passage was written by Norris in his second year of Solitary Confinement after spending 14 years locked up for a crime he did not commit. Giving to me to share with the world, after 25 years. 

"Suicide thoughts are pulling me, the fight in me keeps pushing me.

     I'm finding myself in a state of confusion.

A part of me is tired of the burden of pain, loss & sorrow; But the other part tells me I'm strong,

    even in my weakest moments. I shall become even stronger. 

I face this mental, emotional, and spiritual battle each and every day I awake.  As I journey

    another day from within this dark place of the lost, abandoned, and forgotten.

This place many call -THE BELLY OF THE BEST,the garbage disposal of society-Prison    

    This journey is and forever will be difficult for me. It has caused me many afflictions

        mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and yes, also physically. 

Because I've been held in captivity for fourteen years for transgressins in which were never

    made. So, because I must awake to this evident reality each and everyday, its like

        being stabbed deeply and I must endure the pain because no ones listening to my cries

            for "help!" A deaf ear has fallen apon me because I've been stripped of my wealth.

So now I'm forced to lay amongst the dead, the silent, the buried.

    Yes, I've screamed for help. No one listened. I've cried for help, that hasn't been answered.

        I've criedd for help. They looked and laughed but kept on by.

            So I find myself asking the unanswered - "WHY ME GOD?"

Hard Times Don't Last

Saturday 5/31/2025 4:20pm Hello world, I come to you today at this fantastic time of 4:20. For all my medicinal health enthusiasts out there, it's a beautiful day and time, isn't it? I've just finished making a video, and the main message I want to share today is 'hard times don't last.' They just don't. How do I know they don't last? Because the Lord God told us so, and because I also told you so.  1 Corinthians 10:13 "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." I'm not sure about you, but I've certainly felt that the man upstairs has forgotten about me or wants to see me suffer at times. But that couldn't be any further from the truth. In fact, the Lord God is patient with us, hoping no one should perish.  2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slow abou...

Aloe Vera- Nature's Panacea

Sunday 06/01/2025 3:03pm      Waking up on this beautiful morning, I went straight into a meditation and breathing exercise, and came out feeling immersed in energy and creativity.  Speaking of creativity, it's not easy to find your happy medium, a space of perfect harmony and balance. As the great Albert Einstein said, "Creativity is intelligence having fun." However, to see that space of intelligence and creativity, a healthy lifestyle is essential, as well as a healthy perspective on things, to spark that interest. I will cite my research sources at the bottom of the page to ensure credit is given where credit is due, so let's dive into it today! Drugs and alcohol can be categorized as living a secondary or secret 'secular lifestyle', contrary to the 9-5, many people rely on drugs and alcohol to get by in life, or to even handle their 9-5 job. What do I mean by that? According to an article written by Abraham Phillip, "Learn To Live A Blessed Life Free...

Civilians vs Military Service

 Tuesday 1:00am     What a beautiful day. I took my depression and "sadness," strapped up my boots, and landed me a job today, a career job, as an electrician. To a millionaire, it's nothing, but to the average person, if you can make 100k a year, you can live very comfortably. I am also fortunate to have no kids. I say that because I believe in marriage and the wedding lock on producing a family, but since I have no kids or a wife, I prefer it on purpose to make sure earning a million dollars is easy. With that being said, sometimes the ones that help people the most, the ones that crack the most jokes, and laugh or smile the most are really the saddest. It takes a special person to set aside their own needs and improve someone else's life. When I speak to someone about the benefits of healthy living, I'm really preaching to myself. The saying is true: the more you mentor, the closer you become to finally being the coach.          ...
