I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Af (flesh), Ra(Sun), Ka(Soul) AfRaKa Africa come from the Arabic word"firk or frik" meaning to seperate, divide, or conquer

Spend it Wisely


Basically I am an all around good guy that always fight for what I believe in. And I enjoy helping other people when they are in need and stand up for those that can't stand up for themselves. At times I can be stubborn, I dislike defeat, and I do not like to give up. I enjoy reading(mostly topics regarding many disciplines of science), robotics, And most of all thinking. And I like good intellectual challenge every once in an as well, and I am a pretty friendly person pretty much, until I get pissed off that is. I take many things in a complex manner; I believe every problem has a solution, whether it is positive and negative. I'm loyal to my friends and family, and I will go out of my way to help them with any problem that they may have. I like to think about many things involving many issues. I take much pride in my culture. I respect others just as long they respect me as well I, I have a good amount of self control, I am a mellow, understanding, and non-conforming person for the most part, even though I act outside of the box at times. But I believe we are all guilty of that crime lol, I try not to act within the norms of our current society, in order to become an individual. That is all I can think of right now, Ill type some more stuff when I think of it.
Props to those who fought for true freedom.

From the Dark Tower
We shall not always plant while others reap
The golden increment of bursting fruit,
Not always countenance, abject and mute,
That lesser men should hold their brothers cheap;
Not everlastingly while others sleep
Shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute,
Not always bend to some more subtle brute;
We were not made eternally to weep.
The night whose sable breast relieves the stark
White stars is no less lovely being dark,
And there are buds that cannot bloom at all
In light, but crumple, piteous, and fall.
So in the dark we hide the heart that bleeds,
And wait, and tend our agonizing seeds.
--Countee Cullen, 1926
I, too, sing America.
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed -
I, too, am America.
--Langston Hughes, 1925I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
