SHAKE THEM HATERS OFF
**ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE* * * * SHAKE THEM HATERS OFF!  BY REV T.D JAKES
A hater is someone that is jealous and envious and spends all their time trying to make you look small so they can look tall. They are very negative people. Nothing is ever good enough! When you make your mark, you will always attract some haters... That's why you have to be careful who you share your blessings and your dreams with because some folk can't handle seeing you blessed... It's dangerous to be like somebody else... If God wanted you to be like somebody else. He would have given you what He gave them. You don't know what people have gone through to get what they have... The problem I have with haters is that they see my glory, but they don't know my story... If the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, you can rest assured that the water bill is higher there too. We've all got some haters among us:
Some people don't like it that you can:
* Have a relationship with God
* Light up a room when you walk in
* Start your own business
* Tell a man/woman to get lost (if he/she ain't about the right thing)
* Raise children without both parents being around
* And not ask for a dime from Anyone
* Haters don't want to see you happy
* Haters don't want to see you succeed
* Haters don't want you to get the victory
Most of our haters are people that are supposed to be on our side. How do you handle the haters who you at least expect to have your guard up against?
You can handle your haters by:
1. *Knowing who you are & who your true friends are * (VERY IMPORTANT!!)
2. *Having a purpose to your life *
3. *By remembering what you have is by divine prerogative and not human manipulation.
* Purpose does not mean having a job. You can have a job and still be unfulfilled. A purpose is having a clear sense of what God has called you to be.
Your purpose is not defined by what others think about you. Fulfill your dreams! You only have one life to live................when its your
time to leave this earth, you want to be able to say,'I've lived my life and fulfilled my dreams, .........I'm ready to go HOME! When God gives you a favor,
you can tell your haters, 'Don't look at me... Look at who is in charge of me...' Pass this to all of your family & friends who you know are not hating on you .
If you don't get it back, maybe you caught somebody out! Don't worry about it, it's not your problem, it's theirs. Just pray for them, that their life can be as
fulfilled as yours! Watch out for Haters............................BUT most of all don't become a HATER yourself!

Hey block fam ya gurl is in need of youre prayers. You know when you finally get someone that makes u happy and all kinds of haters just pop up trying to break you down? Man im goin through that and i sure do need my true homies to say a prayer for me so the devil can back off and leave ya gurl in peace. So if yall got a second please lift me up because my parents always taught me theres power in prayer and i believe that with all my soul.

Thanks Ya Gurl Mizz Prissy

Man so summer coming up and i cant help thinking its about to get hot please God dont let the homicides get even more out of control this year. Its like damn this got 2 stop. I know im not the only one who miss the days where us ladies walking down the street and BAM a car full of dudes pull up and let loose with water ballons (of course my hair better be braided or a homeboy bout to cash out lol) dat shyt was fun for dudes and females. Instead now its like when a car pull up you hopeing they not bout to start shooting. And they killing women to. And the crazy part is you dont even have to be the one beefin with somebody to get took out these no aim'n dudes is hitin the wrong people at an alarming rate these days. Its like when does something make you so mad that you pick up and gun and decide Im bout to kill dude? Its like when you sit down and think about it was what yall fought about really that serious or was youre ego hurt that bad that you lost sight of the fact that you loose youre life to by taking another persons. Jail is not a vacation however dudes going like its the place to be. Death is final however our guys are just taking eachother out as if its nothing. I find myself being happy i dont have any brothers out here and thats a shame. Its like if these dudes dont stop killing eachother we not gonna have men left in the bay. I just wish it would go back to the days where you feel safe walking down the street and people look forward to the summer because its fun. Now i find myself scared of summer cause i dont want to pick up the paper and see the face of a dude i went to school with who was hella cool, or a dude i may have had a crush on in high school, or just a man period who somebody knew and loved even if i never met him. I use to read the paper everyday you know to pass time and just see whats up in the world but when they started printing the tribune with all the homicides in it i stoped reading it becuase that shyt made me so sad to see all them people gone and i dont mean just a oh thats fucked up sad and move on to the next page i mean i cryed bout that shyt cause to me these people coulda been something doing great things and now they cant. I dont know what its gonna take but i sure wish our guys would just stop killing eachother and put that energy into something good. Because we shouldnt have to say oh Im moving out the town or the town isnt a place to raise kids like we as the residents have no part in whats going on. This is our city we make it what it is and to be honest i just want to have fun all summer hell all year without loosing our fellas. This got 2 stop......................................
