God damn Marcus, I love this.

In order to heal our culture we have to bring back strong black love! I am working on a piece called "Strong Black Love - Relationship Management II" so stay tuned!

I was lucky, my parents gave me a good example to base my marriage on.

As was I....This is why I really understand the importance of it...All behavior is learned...as a culture we have to get back to modeling functional family structures for our children.

@marcusjones2000 That's what a lot of people don't seem to understand. People don't just magically appear fully formed, they develop, and everything that goes into a person effects who that person will become. That's why I don't allow BET in my home, I want better for my son than that.

I really like you man, much respect for what you do.

very very well said brother...I am going incorporate that in my list of sayings....

"People don't just magically appear fully formed, they develop, and everything that goes into a person effects who that person will become. "
