This idea of spanking a child or punishing a child is older than most people think. The line that we are threading is the notion of is spanking considered abuse. Unfortunately this is beyond just the notion of abuse or not, it also goes to the level of justified or not. I lived in a house hold where spanking is ok and well there are times I agree with it and I don’t. There are also points where I have seen spanking get out of hand into serious abuse and I had been on the receiving end but heck I survived with not battle scars physically but there was a mental scar which ensure I know don’t do that particular bullshit again.

“If a child honestly feels their parent is truly abusive then something like this would make them report their parents. But when you know you got loving parents who go above and beyond for you and you embarrassed them… You accept that ass beating and never do it again. The state isn’t gonna take care of these kids the way a real parent will. You won’t get game systems, name brand clothes, sneakers and everything you beg your parent for from the state. So for all the kids who wanna be grown before their time think the state got your back… Go ahead and find out!!! These streets is real and the world don’t love you!!”

Lets go back to religious points like say the Bible as I am not that familiar with the stories from other religious artifacts. Adam and Eve children of god and they were punished for simply eating the fruit. Lot’s wife for turning around to look back at the past she left behind, King Solomon and should I go on I suppose not as the bible is laden with these or such stories. My point is some actions are justified there are simply some parents who take it too far and much like bad cops or bad people in general don’t give a damn and made punishing your child with a beating so evil. I may base my take on this matter because I was raised in that way and maybe if I was raised without being beaten I would have a different outtake on the matter who knows. Guess I was not that privileged.

We all dream big and we all have goals in life as to what we want to obtain. The question is how hard are we working to make it there also what hurdles or setback we had to endure in that process. I have had the privileged to met and mentored with many talented individuals on my journey. Even the slight detours have helped in molding my character. I have gained wisdom from my experience and have since evolved. Life is a journey and process and the choices we make determine where or how we will end up. I can clearly say if I had it easy I would have been a serious asshole knowing the kind of person I am. The fact that I had to settle with certain things and then eventually level up made me the humble individual I am and thus created the person anyone can trust with their lives until you attempt to stab me in the back then I can be your worst nightmare, hey I am only human but beyond that I quest in life changed from when I was a mere child to what I am now as an adult and in so doing shaped my destiny whatever that may end up being.

In the interim I watched and read a profound article on the idea that we rush to gate too quickly sometimes and don’t sit to think about the build up. In reality it does matter to this generation I exist within as we look towards the younger entrepreneurs that are making it before they hit 30. Everyone wants to be rich and famous and retire from the everyday work. It’s a dream I don’t quite share as there is always something to do.

“Success, like money, is one of those slippery treasures that squeezes out of our grasp and lands just out of reach — over and over again throughout a lifetime.”
“That definition of success doesn’t preclude other definitions, of course. In fact, I suspect that those who enjoy creation for creation’s sake probably also enjoy a good deal of “traditional” success. They just don’t define themselves by it.”
