Ok CarterB,

Cereal and ravioli? Haha you do make me smile from time to time bro.

From all that you had just posted, it sounds like you need to get your gut right, back on the healthy digestive tract.

First of all, do you chew your food? Mash it up in your mouth to the consistency of pudding?
If not, do yourself some good and chew your food. The acids in your saliva start breaking down your food before it even reaches the belly. People have cured their GERDs by chewing their food more.

Secondly, do you ever drink ginger tea? Or add ginger to your meals?
This will stimulate those digestive fires and will aide your digest system and help you get the most benefit out of what you eat. And it will help with other stomach issues you may be dealing with.

Thirdly, move your body. Exercise and eat nutrient dense plant food. And if you do it right, even skinny man can put on some muscle weight. Plant fuel is the best fuel. Humans are meant to eat plants. Their anatomy and physiology is designed for consuming plants not animals.

Getting outta Babylon is not for the lazy man. You gotta take a step or more to get ondoard that Zion train.

Ital Livity: Getting Babylon outta your life, outta your body, brain, and soul

JAH Love and Guidance

Jahcub: Can't lift your arm to pick a fruit from a tree?
Or from the ground?



Brotha, that's easily said in places like JA. But I live in Ohio where I'd need a telescope to find a fruit tree.

lol

Haha seen brotha, however, where there is a will there is a way. Plant a seed and grow a fruit tree.

Don't be a lazy boyee

Blessed to all and thanks for all the support, InI strive to educate not only myself but my surrounding Idren

InI am already vegan and try to eat Ital whenever I can because it is better for I

InI am still trying to learn which words to replace from what the western world has taught me (Like me, OPression etc) if there is already a thread that would be appreciated if you can direct me there or just by posting a response

InI wish you all blessings and good livity

Blake

InI = Us, You and I, You all, them

I Man = (for us brethren, sistren are not I Man) Me, my, mine, I

The I = you, your, his, hers, etc.

Idren = brethren and sistren

The list is long of words that can be changed to challenge the barriers of western thought and language. Time and education will help the I to find answers. "Jamaican patois" in I opinion is where a more thoughtful approach to western language originates from, and InI should be mindful of using word sound power from another region we are from to avoid cultural appropriation or perpetuating ignorance that all Rastafari have to speak a certain way. In my community, I man don't speak using the language that Rastafari has taught I, for I have never been to Jamaica and no one in I community is from Jamaica. When I am on this forum and choosing the language I type, I prefer to be more mindful of the words I use and try to challenge Iself to break the mental barriers of damaging language. I man also know that among Idren it is preferred to dismantle Babylon language and customs to speak and think closer to JAH.

Reggae music has been I biggest teacher of righteous language. Peter Tosh and Midnite (listen to Ras Mek Peace and other albums, the song Pagan, Pay Gone) are good teachers, there are many others.

Also I give thanks Jah Cub I for the Is reasoning on capitalism and Ital livity! Yes IXPninja I live in the north too, but even in the correct season JAH provides edible plants for I free of charge!

BLESSED LOVE IDREN

Thank you very much jah cub I

What would you want instead of capitalism. Communism? It has almost ruined just as much. Or would you like a 3 ideology? What is the perfect society with the perfect ideology in your opinion?

Btw Marcus Garvey: He said Africa for the Africans: Does that mean that if you are white you must not live in africa or what?

and what about medicine

I know you only use organic products
My mom broke her leg. They gave her drugs to anesthetize her from the pain. Should she just keep it natural and then suffer throughout the process? What about chemical medicine that saves a lot of lifes?

I'm confused

I don't think there is a perfect economic system that man has created yet. As the I says, all the isms have caused harm. I wil leave this reasoning to those Idren that know more about economic systems than I.

Marcus Garvey was prophet and a very smart business man. Africa for the African was one of many teachings Mr. Garvey presented to InI, but there are many more. It would benefit anyone to learn of his philosophies. The book which I listed above is a good starting point.

Africa for the Africans can be most simplified that Black Africans should have been allowed to have complete control of their own independent countries and continent. Including government, economy, international relations, etc. Of course that doesn't mean white people would not be allowed to live in Africa. That is divisive thinking, similar to your "BLM = rasicm?" post, Caveman. Just because white people imposed apartheid or racist governments that harmed black and people of color around the world, does not mean that Africans would make similar choices if allowed complete control of government. White people could live in Africa, and they would be following the laws and government of the indigenous people of that land. Similar to how black people and people of color live in Europe now. It could even be argued that whites would have it better living in Africa under the guidance of an African leader, but that is for each individual to decide. We won't know until African's are allowed to rule their own continent without outside influence from Europe or Asia or Amerikkka. That is what Africa for the African teaches us.

I forgot to mention this scholar earlier when I was suggesting books to read, but I would highly suggest Cheikh Anta Diop's "The African Origin of Civilization: Myth or Reality". This is a great book to help inform the I of the differences between African and European world-views. I think the I would benefit reading and learning about a more inclusive view based on culture, cooperation, ethnic equality, respect for our environment, regardless of the economic system a country might choose. Maybe Africa could teach us a new economic system that would be more harmonious than capitalism or communism or socialism.

I think these questions may have been directed at Jah Cub I, but I couldn't help speaking I mind.

BLESSED LOVE IDREN

Didn't see your most recent comments about wanting to be less ignorant. This is a good quality! Ask questions as much as the I would like.

Your mother should make her own decisions about spirituality and everything related to her health, just as InI should all make those decisions for ourselves. If the I can keep it natural to heal our ailments than why not? If Babylon's chemical mixtures are the only way available, or the preferred method of an individual, what can InI do? There is no easy way to decide what is right for InI, but with education we can only strive to make the correct decisions with the information available to InI.

I will save this reasoning for Idren that are more knowledgeable on topics of health and medicine than I, I just felt compelled to post because I didn't want to make it sound like I was being too harsh to the I about what I was sensing was divisive thinking. Please keep asking questions Caveman!

JAH BLESS
