Mindset

Our belief that we have to transition from childhood to adulthood at a certain age, is an illusion. Some adults operate with the mindset of adolescents. Maturity isn’t age related, it is a mindset. What happens in our lives isn’t dictated by norms. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Masks Off

We begin to live an authentic life when we shed ourselves of the masks we wear. Twisting ourselves in knots so that we can be included doesn’t advance us, it encourages ridicule and mockery. Community advancement is the utopia we need. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Layered

Everything we see has layers. Looking for opulence with the eyes is deceptive. The content of a man is not the sum of his financial and social status, his character is what matters. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Safety

Safety is an oxymoron. In a world that is full of duplicitous beings we have to be alert, vigilant, spontaneous and ready. Betrayal wanes and waxes. If people aren’t loyal they would betray another, regardless of the relationship. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Co-conspirators

Domination and manipulation is not the problem, it is those who accede and participate because of their own self interest. No amount of money can cleanse us of our transgressions. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Monitors

We don’t need monitors if we are responsible adults. If you have sold your agency and you are accountable to others it’s your call. Some of us don’t mind selling ourselves in exchange for prominence. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Evil

There are evil doers everywhere, no accountability, just brainwashing and subjugation. The masses are pawns, obey or be obliterated. If we can’t save ourselves, how can we save others? © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

Intuitive

We can create miracles, banish demons, and call forth our ancestors in times of difficulty. Paying reverence to our ancestors is the key that unlocks all doors. The thing that hinders us is our dependence on other gods other than our own. Now is the time for us to act on our intuition. © Norma […]

Thuggery

Thuggery has no class, it is practiced by the rich and the poor. If we have to goad, and intimidate people in order to show how powerful we are, what does that say about us? Don’t disrespect people who haven’t wronged you, even if they have wronged you it is better to separate yourselves from […]
