“There are things you can’t reach. But you can reach
out to them, and all day long.”

How
a certain way of thinking success can lead to justice…..?????
justice
if we remember we belong to each other, we wouldn’t
have to talk about justice… it would already be here
kinship
“Without kinship there is no justice…. Without
justice there is no peace.” [Pastor G]
Deficiency
of compassion of a once thriving warmth; overtaken from an aloofness inside,
calcified of life’s occurrences.
The calcification of hatred and greed melted away
from acts of compassionate persistency of one man [ Pastor G.].
There are things you can’t reach, but you reach out
all day long p186
“standing in solidarity”
“stand w/ the badly behaved…. Until you understand
it from what it is”
You stand with the least likely to succeed until
success is succeeded by something more valuable: kinship. You stand with the
belligerent, the surly, and the badly behaved until bad behavior is recognized
for the language it is: the vocabulary of the deeply wounded and of those whose
burdens are more than they can bear.
Boyle, Gregory (2010-02-14). Tattoos on the Heart:
The Power of Boundless Compassion (p. 179). Free Press. Kindle Edition.
·
Love is success
·
Purpose not to save but to help them
find themselves
·
Rif off “reach’ à
can’t reach, but still reach out [186]
·
Compassion is always at its most
authentic about a shift from the cramped world of self- preoccupationI into a move expansive place of fellowship, of
true kinship
·
Part of why we are comfortable is we are
talking about love
·
Justice is a process, an act of free
will, he;ping them find themselves in a positive way
·
Justice is peace
Desire for purity à enemy of
justice, why? b/c they want to be saved
Self-preoccupation à meaning and
it’s relation to justice
Self-preoccupation à kinshipà
justice à
peace
Self – preoccupation à hold on, I am
working on myself, I got issues, I believe my own hype
Can the ratification of your internal justice,
burnish internal demons set by life’s occurrences?
Success is a purity code
A world full of sin
Born into sin/ saved is a process
“If you surrender your need for results
and outcomes, success becomes God’s business. I find it hard enough to just be
faithful.”
Boyle, Gregory (2010-02-14). Tattoos on
the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion (p. 168). Free Press. Kindle
Edition.
To
establish a connection amid a perceived endless tunnel of self indulgence
through compassion’s unsullied light.
Compassion can show its true form of sincerity when
we stop being so fixated with our personal endeavors. Instead broaden our
internal emotions to an explosive [volatile] and expandable peripheral
outreach.
Showing compassion does not show our weakness, on
the other hand, not showing compassion can show just how weak we are.
Pastor G, in spite of possible death, showed
compassion, by putting himself daily in harm’s way.
We deviate from our innocence of
unconditional love, allowing life’s occurrences to daunt our purpose in life.

What is G’s argument abort [success]?
Success more about breaking down wall, & the
people change their ideas about themselves success is about the process Dentist_____
It depends on the person, if (s)he accepts or not if
they do, it is success ; my job is to put it out there. Plant the seed. Not

What is the nature of true forgiving?
A sincere feeling of letting go of the hurt pain sadness,
anger, that someone causes you in your life.
It’s a gift
Have you even been forgiven?
How can hold accountable and still be forgiving…..
It can help people, to hopefully learn from their wrong
doings, in effect to help them change for more positive
With a lot of kids today, some I believe need to have a
sense of “a village raising a child” where neighbors and community comes
together to “check” those who does wrong while they’re young. With the hope
they will learn to grow up learning more respect for themselves, community,
people, and life.
How does Arnold
experience the three deaths.
Wake- laughter, he is given some space, come together as
community, Rowdy is distance (I’m still mad, so I am going to be distant when

Indigenous people of Philippines- 1 is Aetas
Native Americans should politically be called indigenous not
native American or Indians-
Native Americans got to the US because before the land was
connected …. Russia and Alaska were connected by ice.
Why did 200 Native American who migrated to the US become so
many tribes?
- · For prosperity reasons--- not enough natural supplies to live off the land to support the population
- · Different leaders formed, breaking into different tribes
- · There were multiple migrations
How did agriculture change the world?
·
Allowed the native Americans to stay in one
place longer
·
Domestic Agriculture started in Iraq*****
*******Read the book --- “Born to Run"******
It’s in our DNA we’re born to run
15 years ago, in
Northern Canada, no t.v. or electricity
and used generators. They obtained 1 t.v.
The kids started watching more t.v. therefore, started
losing their culture, moving to the big city as they get older, started
adapting more Americanized thinking….
What does this mean to me personally?
Facts about Native
Americans
- · Some still live in traditional ways
- · Most don’t like term “Indian”
- · Only indigenous persons are recognized buy US federal government are given sovereignty
- · 25% or more Native blood & you qualify for financial aid
- · Either really rich from casinos or dirt poor
- · 300 federal reservations in the US
- · 562 recognized tribes currently in US
- · 21 recognized tribes currently in California
- · Constant struggle w/industry & capitalist interested in taking their land
- · A lot of struggle to maintain culture
- · 70% of native Americans live off reservation
- · Largest reservation is Navajo
- · Conflict between US desire to govern vs. sovereignty
- · Most natives are not living from their original place of ancestry

With so many things on your mind how do you put on paper
clean and clear thoughts….
Practice… “give your mind a chance to right”
Writing sentences
- Start collecting idea electronically
- Start gentrification on a new doc
- One way to write is to create a repository (a place where things can be stored)
- Put your idea at the bottom of your document. As you write your paragraphs, pull from your repository.
- Always stay in charge of you essay
- Each paragraph should have a point (topic sentence should state your point)

i.e. raising minimum wage
- 1. wages from 7.50-10.10
- 2. Boehner said “get exact quite” that it won’t help anybody
- 3. Liar, how?
- 4. Will actually help folks at minimum wage
- 5. Will help out new vs. old
- 6. Boehner’s claim that this wil help out zero is truthful but false, he is technically not at fault, but he is manipulating the truth to make Obama appear to offer us an empty promise.
- 7. Boehner’s sleight of hand, manipulation, distortion, misleading, deception, game
Thesis: Boehner’s sleight of hand assumes that the public
will not analyze the truth of what he is saying, causing us to fixate on the
negative, the zero, of what Obama claimed in his State of the Union.
Need to expound on the phrases.
Phrases-
- will not analyze the truth
- causing us to fixate on the negative
- the zero
- sleight of hand
juice the zero:
the decision to use this word versus not many or only a few
stirs up the controversy around Obama
trying to get folks to not recognize that if there are no
future contracts then he is correct but if there are contracts signed going
forward then Obama is telling the truth
Boehner is extorting us mentally
Does Obama have the power to change the minimum wage on
federal contracts? Yes (by executive
order (authority))
“zero” is a claim Obama himself made in the speech
evidence: Obama care is talked about in a similar way(find
an example of this being done with Obama care and analyze to help your case
with the zero
Trying to rush us and he expects that we won’t analyze what
he is saying and what he thinks we will fixate on the negative about Obama
Opposes Obama
Before we can think, tries to implant negative thought
thoughts against Obama

In order to make the US more competitive globally, through
bipartisan, they need to insure transparency and public engagement in trade;”
by increasing exports.
Classmates’ topic sentences---
***The US engagement in trade increasing exports inspires a
sense of competition across the globe, in a bipartisan manner, two parties coming
together, to make better foreign trade decisions.***
Obama emphasized to congress that through a bipartisan
agreement, they could increase exports, insure transparent and public engagement
in trade, and make the US more competitive globally
To be able to increase export and to make the US more
competitive globally, our public engagement in trade should increase in a bipartisan
way to make transparency possible.

"Politically I am a Democrat. I learned about politics mainly
through life experiences and current events through news media. I am a Democrat
because for the most part they seem to focus more for the lower to middle class
people while Republicans focus overall for the rich to get richer and cut
abilities for those in need. A large hit for example is to the education
system. Tremendous cuts have been made at all levels in the education system
from pre-K through college, while the cost to receive these benefits are
increasing every year. Democrats focus on equality for all people. In addition
they push for benefits for the middle
and lower class groups."
