The Daily Respiration

Breathe in, breathe out,
Its all apart of respiration.
With no air, you'd blackout.
Just inhale it in & blow it out;
Its easier with communication.
Breathe in, breathe out,
Whats this poem really about?
Contraindication?
With no air, you'd blackout.
Or maybe you'd green out?
Sounds funny right, no exaggeration.
Breathe in, breathe out,
Head start spinnin, you should take a timeout.
Breathings not right, probably hyperventilation.
With no air, you'd blackout.
Its something everyone should read about;
The Daily Respiration!
Breathe in, breathe out,
With no air, you'd blackout.

My Philosophy's (from a chiefaholic)

Hey...
What does philosophy mean to you?

Philosophy (phi ' los ' o ' phy)

• Love & pursuit of wisdom by intellectual means & moral self-disciplne.
• A set of ideas or beliefs relating to a particular field or activity.
• A system of values by which one lives : has an unusual philosophy of life.

My definition of philosophy is somewhat different from the Webster's version, but still slightly similar. To me it means, my ideas, my thoughts. When I think of the word philosophy... i have a specific way in which I choose to act, speak, think, & live by. I'm a very intellectual "muhh'fucka!" Very unique, very different from the ordinary; one of a kind. So, I have to live by a specific "philosophy" just to attain the knowing of being an original. I type a certain way. I talk a certain way. I even write a certain way. "Damn... How many pairs of shoes you got?" I got a lot of shoes, because shoes... are the "center" of the entire outfit! Smile. I liked to be noticed by whats on my feet. Because... that's me & that's my PHILOSOPHY!

True... folk gone hate, its the natural way of life. See! I done did it again. I'm tellin you how i think, when it comes to somebody & they negativity. So, ummm... yea, they gone hate on you. Love to hate Amex! It took me a long time to realize that... I cant make everybody happy, I cant make everyone like me. I'm a strong believer in karma, so I feel what go around, will come right back around. So then guess what? I grew up! Realized that... the world is filled wit good & evil. Its been that way since the beginning of time. Its natural, its normal. I, however, do not hate on nobody. FOR WHAT? I'm on something better, always. Ain't got time for the negative energy you tryna throw my way. I simply just, don't entertain it. Its alotta folk that don't care for Amex, or jus flat out don't like Amex, & always got something smart to say about Amex. And.............................................................................................................. Like I said, don't matter. Hate all you want, wit that hatin ass chatter. Petty bitches don't like me, but they never try me. I'm always on some other shyt, you niggas can slide by me. Just me... expressin whats goin on in my head, my world, my philosophy.

Another philosophy or "motto" of mines is, "Perfection Is Everything!" Meaning, if you gone do it (whatever it may be), do it big! Never sell yourself short. Always strive to be the best. Like Remy Ma said, "You gotta have the mind state, like I'm so great. Cant nobody do it like you do..." They always say that you should dream big & hold onto that dream till you make that shit happen. Anytime Amex do somethin, that guy doin it BIG. "Everything we do, we do it B-I-G!" Now take it the fuck how you want to, but I'm not braggin or boastin. Or tryna come off as cocky, just tryna tell you keep up (for all you letchup eaters out there), or get the fuck out the way. You blockin my shine!

Weed... Marijuana... Cannabis... Trees... Fiyah... Mary...
It goes by alot of different names. And majority of the time, I'm always referring to it (weed) in my philosophys. Just as I (Amex) refer to myself in the third person. Its apart of my world, its me. Over the years, I have acquired the habit. And I'm not ashamed of it, at all. Its not stoppin shit & its not as bad as folk make it out to be. Different folk use the drug for different shit & I have my reasons. Guess what... I'm gone continue to talk about it, & write about it, & rap about it, & think about it for as long as i can. Kid Cudi said it best, "This will be my world!" Watch & see.

To sum it all up... Muhh'fuckin haters exist. If you ain't got nobody hatin on you, then you ain't nobody. They gone be right there every step of the way. They gone hate on the weed smokers, they gone hate on how you chose to dress or present yoself. Folk gone hate on you cuz they miserable & jus wanna hate. That's all they know. The type of muhh'fucka that hate to see somebody doin better than them. I'm jus gone continue to chief my greens, gettin higher to my dreams. I'm gonna stay on my hustle & flow, ignorin all those... that's out to get me, yea I mean stop me. Muhh'fucka try it, gone head & doubt me. Certified hustla, certified "G", I'm the type'a nigga make ya spend ya money on me. All my shits legit, no stuntin here babe... Grown man status, that's why these muhh'fuckas hate me. But haters gone hate, while I'm still gettin paid. Bitch... I'm always on my grind EARLY, while you hatin pussy niggas LATE... Be on the lookout in my blogs bout my different theories, or philosophys! I'm gone try & keep it different. I'm gone try & keep it simple as can be, while still givin you 100 percent of me. Me distrubutin my knowledge to everybody out there, that wanna read it; feel me? That's what this is here for, I'm givin you a preview to The Amex Show! Also... ALL comments are welcomed! All will be displayed. Yo comments motivate me, in all type'a ways. >

It's Written All Over Ya Face!!!

Remember the old song, "It's written all over ya face. You don't have to say a word." Well in some cases, that IS true! Your actions actually does speak louder than words. Most folk may think that is some BS, but its very much so based on a true story. Alot of what you may be actually thinking and/or feeling shows up on your face 100 percent of the time (it's proven). With proper education and years of practice, you would be able to read those "facial cues."

When you're talkin to someone and you may have a hunch that somethins not right, but nothin concrete. Having acquired the special or "unique" skills needed, you could almost never be fooled. This type of skill requires years of extensive research, having to study the human body, face, mind, etc. It could be very beneficial if used in the correct way. Having the ability to read people based on their facial or body clues, along with spoken words, has proven to be effective and used today (do the research).

What do you really think about my weight? Are you dating anyone else besides me? What you thinkin 'bout? These are just a few simple yes or no questions that we all take for granted. Although the mouth may say one thing, the body might be saying something else. And when your body does the talking for you, it doesn't lie! While you are using only a small part of your (conscious) brain to control what you actually want to say, subconsciously your mind is working and doing what its really programmed to do. For example, if you simply asked someone what were they thinking, and they said nothing. They could be telling the truth, or jus tellin you what they want you to know.

• A quick smirk, which only lasts a half of a millisecond, would alert the trained eye. Now the smirk doesn't necessarily mean that they are lying. They could jus be not telling the complete truth, or ashamed to talked about, etc. the lists go on.

The study of body language is a unique and extraordinary scientific gift. With the years of work ahead, this is an opportunity that is sure to pay off. I, Amex, have been studying facial and body clues, and its getting even more amazing and challenging everyday. I'm a long way from reaching my goal, but way ahead of any beginner. Its a process that I used repetitively everywhere I go. I'm constantly scouting a face to see what I can get from it. I may use it at a check out line, or a fast food restaurant where I'm sure to get the "extra attention!" Believe me or not, it works (do the frickin research)! As I just stated, I may not be ahead of my time as of yet. But with Dr Paul Ekman as my muse, I know I'm gone get better wit time!

Try it at home: Look at an old photo; look at the faces. What are they telling you?
