Personal Quote on Forgiveness
It's always better to forgive one person instead of going through life hating everyone that will remind you of that person.

Travyon Martin
The whole Martin/Zimmerman episode is wrapping up with the closing arguments happening today and a verdict could come as early as today. At first, I was disgusted by the way this whole case was handled. Is it not bad enough that the poor kid lost his life and yes, he could have attacked Zimmerman who would later kill him. But does the race card really have to be pulled to make this case such a high profile case? Is a child's life not worth the value of a high profile case, it's the fact that his skin is another color than his killer?
It's the year 2013 and yet when I see cases such as this I think we're still taking steps backwards because people don't get it. Race is irrelevant, color is invisible, everyone carries the same value and nobody is higher than the other. To those who think because they have badges, titles, or money that sets up a barrier. Badges are just tin, titles are invisible labels that mean nothing, and people who only care about money are the poorest people in the world. What ever happened to the value of a life?
Whatever your opinions are, I leave up to you but lets please remember this. A boy, whether he was a bad egg or a good egg was still a life and yes he was doing stupid stuff. We all do stupid stuff when we are kids and if you were to tell me you never did, I either call you a liar or someone who has never lived. We are suppose to make mistakes when we're young so we learn from them and grow old wiser and possibly make better changes, Trayvon Martin never got that chance. No matter how this case ends, Zimmerman will have to live knowing he took his life and it's my hope he understands now the value of a life.

Even Titans Must Fall.
Last night, Anderson "The Spider" Silva lost for the first time in the Ultimate Fighting Championship PPV UFC 162. Now for those who don't follow, Anderson Silva is considered arguably one of the best Mixed Martial Arts fighters in the world. Schooled in the arts of Muay Thai and raised in Brazil, Anderson Silva rose up the ranks with his lethal kicks and terrifying strikes, he is considered the "Mike Tyson" of cage fighting. With a record of 33-4, Anderson had never lost in the United States promotion until last night. Some will say it justice and others will say that this titan of the octagon threw the fight but either way, he lost.
Ever since the beginning of his streak, Anderson Silva became cocky and arrogant. He would taught his opponents and make them feel as though they were in the ring with a super human but all that went away with one left hook to the jaw. The fight started with his opponent Chris Wiedman tackling the spider to the ground and pounding on his head. After the round ended, Silva began the taunting to mock his opponent who is undefeated to show that he hasn't be phased. But once the second round started, Silva began to taunt instead of fight and that's when his fate was sealed.
What does this mean for UFC, Silva and his reputation? For UFC, I see a major opportunity to set up a rematch and reach more profits on a Silva fight that they haven't received in years. Silva, whether he threw the fight or lost legitimately, his record and streak have now come to an end and whether he chooses to regain his former glory or not is on him. As far as the reputation, Anderson Silva is virtually a god of the octagon creating a legacy that can never be touched but he tarnished that legacy when he acted carelessly. The bottom line is he deserved to lose no matter what because he showed no passion for the fight, no respect for his opponent, and most of all he forgot for all his victories, he's still human.

What makes a Joker more than a King?
No
Love for The Joker
By
Anthony
Labson
What
makes a Joker more of a man
Than
a king?
A
king has hundreds of people
that
serve him, prepare his food,
clothes
him, cleans him,
and
gets everything he wants.
Covered
with jewelry, surrounded
by
stone walls and steel.
He
can start wars with whomever
And
take other people’s land.
The
people he conquers become his slaves
and
he uses glory to explain chaos.
For
that his name will go into the record books
and
generations will remember his name.
A
king’s ambition for power and the
preservation
of his legacy is his only concern
even
at the expense of the people “He” serves.
A
Joker doesn’t need all this.
All
a joker asks for is a smile
and
he is willing to get it by his own
expense
if necessary.
For
that, you call him a fool.
