Being Able to show the world who you are.

"Being a Negro in America means trying to smile when you want to cry. It means trying to hold on to physical life amid psychological death. It means the pain of watching your children grow up with clouds of inferiority in their mental skies. It means having their legs off, and then being condemned for being a cripple." Where Do We Go From Here 1967.

Thoughts Turned Into Reality: My Worst Fear Realized By: Stephon K. 



"There is nothing to fear but fear itself"
~Franklin D. Roosevelt
 

I arrived at my home to find a terrible violence had occurred but it wasn't until it died down that the the thoughts in my head, the thing I fear most had happened. Monday November 4th, 2013, the day had gone well and I was on the bus, on my way home, laughing and joking with my friends, as the evening starts to unwind my bus pulls up to my home,where three police squad cars have pulled around my home, as I'm closing my gate I see the foster child Xzavier with his head in his hands. As I walked up the steps, I greeted the Two officers Speaking to him, they gave me a quick greeting but then turned back to the troubled boy I knew on my stairs. As I walked into my home I saw three more Officers of the law, two accessing the situation and one speaking with my mother, when I walk to the stairs I don't greet my mother for the fear of interrupting the respected officer, but I hear my grandmother in the living room, so without hesitation I walked into my living room to find my three nieces and grandmother sitting on the coach, before I could say a word she put her hand up and said, "Pito for the risk of your temper getting the best of you I'd like for you to please go to your room until the police leave, then we'll tell you what has happened". When I heard this I knew my worst fears had been realized.
So without Any debate I slowly walked up the stairs listening to the conversation my mother was having with the calm female officer. "We'll be taking him to children's hospital to see if he's injured himself. Then we'll take him to the psychiatric ward to have him accessed, he will most definitely leave your supervision and go to a high helping center",she said to my mother. She nodded, and with that the police officers said I hope you don't have anymore trouble tonight, and left. I looked at my mother puzzled and upset for my fear, then as I made my way up to the top of the stairs I was called back down by my mother, "come into the living room Stephon" she said, "we can't hide from you what happened". So I cautiously made my way back down the stairs to find my grandmother unsteadily at the edge of her seat, my mother kept me standing. I asked her mom what's going on what happened. I almost punched through the wall when she said, "Xzavier tried to kill me". 
I kept my calm while she and my grandmother told me the horrifying tragedy that had taken place just a short time ago. "See Xzavier was on the computer" she started, "when I walked up the stairs I saw him on an inappropriate site, so without hesitation I took his Computer privileges away. He of course got upset so he stormed downstairs and out of the house", as she continued on I could feel my anger and rage starting to boil inside of my entire being, but I kept my calm as I continued to listen," your grandmother and the girls were downstairs when he slammed the door and walked out", she continued, "about five minutes later he came back into the house and slammed his door and I started hearing him cursing and breaking things."
As she continued I tried to keep myself calm "So I hurried into the bathroom with Amiela to help her use the bathroom, the suddenly I heard him, trying to break down the door, throwing deadly threats through the air as he thrashed at the door with a part of his bed, I quickly took out my phone and immediately called the police, it was your grandmother that finally calmed him down when she pointed out to him that he was terrifying the children, so when he calmed down he went into his room and stayed there until the police came." Now after all that was said, I tried to keep myself calm, I told my mother that I was alright and went upstairs. The feeling of almost losing my mother crushed my heart, It made me truly understand that I need to appreciate everything I have in life, this near loss experience truly made me realize that I'm one of the lucky ones that is blessed enough to have both parents who love and care for me dearly.
All you can ever do is be great fun to your parents because you never know when you'll lose them. It took my mother almost being taken away from me by a psychotically unstable teenager to realize that she's or my father will not always be here, so I say to you now, respect your parents and be great fun for what you have, because it could all be gone in a snap.

I woke up today and it was dark muggy, and straight up hot, my alarm had woken me up, it was a hard time to motivate myself to awaken and start my day, when I got in the bathroom, my mother had already started the shower for me so the steam surrounded my being, when I got in I quickly turned it down so I could get some cool water wake me and my mind, after that I rushed to get dress for the fear of my bus getting to my home while I wasnt ready. I swiftly went downstairs to greet my mother and finish off my duties, taking my allergy and ashma medication I heard the horn of my bus patiently awaiting my departure, I gathered everything I needed and headed out the door when I got into them bus is when my day truly started because I 'd have to push myself through this miserably unbarable Monday.

The entire day was filled with clashing pads, adoring fans, and a whole ear drum popping amount of screaming. Football cultivated my time today, as I went to my old Pop-Warner team games today seeing how I was a Junior coach and needed show my support, although I wasn't on the field, I was making sure that my teams players, the opposing teams players, and the family got food and beverages to eat while they watched the game, I manned the grill and one of the frying mechanisms throughout the first half of my day, cheering on all of my teams, and the players. Upon my returning home after a hard days work, I came to find out that I was right on time to watch the football games that went on throughout the day, I was pleased when my co-favorite NFL football team the New England Patriots beat the Oakland Raiders off of the outstanding interception from nose tackle Vince Wilfork, and I was extremely exhilarated when the other side of my co-favorite team the Seattle Seahawks made a spectacular beat against the Denver Broncos i.e the team I dread the most. All of the games I saw today were hard fought battles until the very end and it was great to have a good friend with me through the second half of the day cheering right alongside me. Altogether I guess I can say, and I quote rapper Ice Cube from the movie the ride along, "today was a good day".

A Heartbreaking final Goodbye

9/21/2014

3 Comments

 
               Yesterday, I had to say goodbye to a woman that I've known for almost all of my life. She was a kind, sweet hearted 65-year-old woman named Phyllis Dixon, I'd known Ms. Phyllis between 10-11 years, and I'd grown fond of her and her children who are my parents age, I could tell that when I saw her in her final resting place that she was finally going to be with the ones that she loved, her late husband and Jesus Christ, she was a very spiritual woman with a heart as big as the Grand Canyon, and feeling to her that said; listen to me because I'm trying to help you, I will always work to help you. Ms. Phyllis was in my top-4 elderly female advisers which means she was one of the four women that were older which meant to me that they were wiser and more experienced, I had put her in this category because I knew that she'd be able to give me wisdom that I'd never dream of before and because I knew that she'd always be able to be depended on. I was able to send my regards to her family and I'm sure they accepted it, because to them I felt like family. I will always miss Ms. Phyllis but she will never be gone because she'll always be in the hearts of the ones she loved, and the ones that loved her.

#1) I love football;i love the aggression of the sport, and I love to get my excersize done while I play. 
#2) I eat cake all the time, with my mom at my side, we eat cake, cupcakes, ice cream cakes, and more al the time.
#3) My cast sucks; I can't take a shower easily; I consistently have problems doing ordinary tasks, and it smells terrible when it gets wet inside.
#4) I am a slow reader; I don't have a fast pace for long period chapter books, and I can only read quickly when I read comics.
#5) I have great friends; they're loyal; they're honest, and they're dependable when I need them the most.

#1) I like cookies, pizza, and dogs.
#2) I love my parents, siblings, and nieces and nephews.
#3)

Camp Caribou memories

     I believe I will most definitely remember stepping out of my comfort zone the last two days we were at the camp. Going higher then I expected in the high ropes course and pushing myself to go as far as i could even with the injury later assessed by my doctor to my thumb. I will also always remember waking up at around 11:45 p.m. to see one of my bunk mates crawling on the floor of the cabin in his sleeping bag and hearing everyone laugh. Then I saw Mr. Duane get up and say, "alright you've had your fun, now it's time to get some sleep."It was easy for me to act like a tough person but I guess when it comes down to it, I guess I'm not particularly that comfortable with heights, I'm not utterly intimidated by it, but I'm not just like i can reach to the sky all day long. Basically I guess I can say I will always remember the support and bonding that i will always have with my fellow ninth graders.
