Bloomberg - Marathon Canceled.

The NYC Marathon has been running since 1970. It has been where runners have made their history.  Due to the destruction of Superstorm/Frankenstorm/Huriccane Sandy,  millions of New Yorkers have been in a state of emergency. New Yorkers have been patient but as the hours go by they watch Mayor Bloomberg focus more on the cleaning of the areas where the marathon is held than worrying about the the victims of this horrific storm.
 Mayor Micheal Bloomberg  decided to cancel the marathon not because of the millions of New Yorkers that are feeling the aftermath, but because of heavy criticism of elected officials.  Mayor Bloomberg at first insisted on the marathon but elected officials were not having it. When the Mayor spoke about insisting on the Marathon he tried to defend by stating he was trying to bring NYers back together just like the marathon did back when 911 happened.
 In a way he was trying to give NYers hope by insisting on the marathon but NYers are not concerned for a marathon. Some are trying to pick up what is left of their homes. Some are shivering in the dark because there is no light or heat. Some barely have food to eat and no help has reached out to them..

  Sorry Mayor Bloomberg right now is the time to build personal compassion for your fellow NYers. A marathon is not going to cut it for those house broken, and or hurting. Lets just say NYers do sit down to watch this marathon, after its done the tv goes off  and they are looking at their surroundings with deep sadness, with very little  strength to pick up the peices. What should've happened was those athletic marathoners should've volunteered to help instead of worrying about a marathon. 1/4th of the country is hurting and it seems as though few people care.

The Ups and Downs

When you step back form a picture that you're observing you see something different that others don't see.  I compare that to life. You do so much during the course of the day that when you start to look back at it all you realize the things you did. Regrets, smiles, laughs, and even the the stuck in a daze moments are what make your day. Your life is a camera that runs 24hrs a day 7days a week 365days a year. you don't remember half of the things you do or dream but when you do remember you learn from it all.
   But while you experience life, you experience the negative side as well. Most of us focus to much on the bad and never forget the bad. The Good sort of withers when you think of the negatives. Some of us think of it because maybe it hurts, you regret what you did, or your just cant stand the way things are going for you at the time. How do we enjoy the positive and let it cover more of the negative.

Smile when you frown

Laugh when you cry

Be at peace when you fight

Whisper when you scream

When we are down and out sometime we have to pick ourselves up dust off and proceed. We cant drown ourselves in a cup of water. We have to proceed in life, keep moving forward. We cant let problems be baracades but be challenges to make us stronger. Positive!!! Accept the now but if you want to change the now  you must get up and do it yourself. Get up keep moving enjoy it all. love it all.

See I believe in God and I pray for my wrongs everyday im not a saint nor perfect. But I try to make the best of life. Even when I'm at my neck with things or situations I pray, I put my faith in God and while I wait I try to change it. But if it becomes hard its because there is some thing else in store for me. It's difficult to wait on what you want in life especially when you yearn for it, desire it with all your heart, want it. At times it feels as if all that fighting and trying so much to have it its not the same. So much time passed while waiting and fighting your lifes current for it. There are those things or beings that when you finally have them in your life you are the happiest person on the planet...... For the moment. we humans are never happy.

Never being happy in humanity is why our world progresses. That is why we progress. We make a downer a sky rocket dream. So keep dreaming and making them come true. Don't let the downs always keep you down. Im sure I will try to do the same. Try to keep my chin up when it all looks bad.

Why I am Redstar & Its Definitions

     

The name red star was given to me by my husband as a stage name for our Hip Hop music movement Nu Era. He called me red star because women are like stars. The most noticeable star is the red star, (Mars) To him I was the most noticeable star in the sea of women. Then I also started to realize the traffic in my myspace page due to that name. So I started to research about the word red star and learned how much significance  this alias was about.

THIS IS ONLY INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT THE RED STAR SIGINIFIES IN POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS HISTORY

 The redstar also represents the star of communism and socialism and a social revolution. Many countries like Russia  and Cuba even though I dont agree with communism once or still under communism.

 

Another representation of Red Star is the 5 wounds of christ or like they say Holy Wounds The penetrating wounds like his hand and feet that were nailed to the cross and the stab under his rib.
