Soul Mate Update-

Quite a few people have shared stories with me about the whole "soul mate" concept that we ran a series on. Matter of fact, I have learned some pretty interesting things from some folks. Recently, I had the pleasure of having this wonderful Belgium family as clients. They shared some really interesting insight to a few thoughts. Along with turning me on toSeat of the Soul , renowned "soul/spirit" authorities and frequent Oprah guest, we also had a unique conversation about the eventuality of "one religion and one race". Stop and think about that concept for a moment. And yes, one day, there will be "no more red, yellow, black, brown, or white people". We will all just be one race of people!

Melting Pot: Population-

The Orlando Sentinel, on April 11, 2006, ran a cool story on the "melting pot" syndrome that has been bestowed upon Metro Orlando. Through 2004, Orlando is the 17th largest melting pot metro area. We are 3rd in population growth of Blacks and Asians, and, 11th in growth of Hispanics. Through 2004, Orlando's population is: 61% White, 14% Black, 3% Asian and 20% Hispanic.

These numbers make for a nice little diverse community. However, why are some groups looking to create their "own" ethnic circles etc? I thought a melting pot climate was everyone mixing and mingling. Isn't having "Black" this, "Asian" that and "Hispanic" whatever, more or less defeating the idea of "melting pot" unity and so forth? Besides, as is stated in the above story, "one day, there will only be ONE RACE, PEOPLE". No Blacks, No Whites, No Asians, No Hispanics! Just PEOPLE! So, get over your little niches and start mingling with each other. "Free your minds so your asses can follow". I think George Clinton said that. lol

Music For The Soul & More-

As a follow up for my Enigma post, I have to tell you. In the last week, I have had more comments from people on the Enigma music I play, than on any other music I have EVER played. Comments from old, young, Americans, foreigners, Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Asians. All loving it and wanting to know what and who it is. Just goes to show you how a little exposure to something might open some eyes and ears. However, that's a little to deep of a concept for our earth based corporate radio and music entities. But, they can force feed you that "rap" crap by these people that are more interested in being thugs than musicians. RIP D12 member Proof. Fatally shot at a club in Michigan this week. What a waste. He leaves behind a couple of kids and one on the way. Thanx Eminem for being there to help your friends family out. All rappers, are NOT thugs.
