I enjoy being Blessed. I enjoy being me.

I have noticed some things this year.

People pay attention 2 everything you do when you usually do the right thingz.
They wanna wait til u do Bad.

There are so0 many people who will be your friend while your on top.
They wont be there when you fall.

When you have succeeded. They want tha same.
& when you Fail. You are the Blame.

Who made people this way???


I noticed a lot of little things...

Why would som1 want 2 see you fail? or lose? or be in pain?
what kind of person leaves u hangin???

everyones cheerin on and then i began 2 realize that they wanted ma team 2 lose.
the hype they gave tha players i went against was unbelievably amazing to me.
I payed it no mind on the court and i continued 2 play well as they expected me 2 give in and get frustrated....

i did not get frustrated and i stayed in my mode.
my team lost...
but once again those ppl made me a better Paul Davvis on the court...

My mental strength provided me with a comfort in ma game that i never really experienced fully until 2day...

North Hollywood: Hours after Chavez's death, Dennis Runner, 23, a white man, was shot multiple times in the head at about 9:30 p.m. at the intersection of Lankershim Boulevard and Sherman Way in North Hollywood. According to police spokesperson Ana Aguirre, the suspect, described as a Latino man, fled in a burgundy four-door Scion. Police said Dennis was sitting inside a vehicle parked in front of a liquor store when he was shot. He was transported to Providence Holy Cross Medical Center, said Aguirre. Runner was pronounced dead at 10:05 p.m.

The coroner also reported the death of Rodney Curry, a 38-year-old black man mortally wounded in a shooting, at 3:01 p.m. Saturday, April 5. But investigators had no information about the date and time of the shooting.
The shootings occurred during a 40-hour symbolic "murder moratorium" called for by civil rights activists to mark the 40th anniversary of the assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. The moratorium to promote peace, justice and nonviolence had started at 6:01 p.m. Friday, 40 years to the minute after King was assassinated in Memphis. The moratorium ended at 10:01 a.m. Sunday.

On Monday, Eddie Jones, president of the Los Angeles Civil Rights Association, said the moratorium was a success despite the multiple murders. "There wasn't a great loss of life," said Jones. He said in the past there had been greater number of lives lost to gun and gang violence. "We sent out a beautiful message: stop the killings. Save a human life. Respect one another. Have some dignity in yourselves. Stop hurting one another and save our children," said Jones. As for those responsible for the homicides , Jones said, "Only God knows everything."
Update: There were a total of three murders during the "murder moratorium." Runner's death on Sunday, April 6, was not considered one of the four homicides. The L.A. County Coroner said Tuesday, April 8, that Rodney Curry, 38, a black man, may have died from an old gunshot wound he received several years ago and therefore would not be considered among any of the homicides that actually occurred during the moratorium.

Uncle Jesse came out Bigger and stronger. Mentally and all the others but his mentality had changed and it showed.
his energy was always so0 contagious. couldnt be sad with him and couldt be happy without him.
I Miss Him.

I remember that summer.

Lebre and I got shot and were in tha hospital...
Ma Mom kept tellin me how he wantd 2 stay at tha hospital wit me and he did, every night he was in there...

He was talkin about how he wantd 2 take me shoppin at Ed Hardy to get some fitz.
He had ma fuckin bak!

then we got out tha hospital and were stayin at Kia's House and more shit jus kept happenin'.
we couldnt move bak to da old house, we all slept in tha livin room and Life was hard but we were still movin and pushin. Mom was cryin all tha time and so was I. it was weird having Lebre by my side cuz i hadnt seen him in like 2 weekz.

Then school started and we went for the first day.

then that night Mom shopped wit tha little money she had. Kia did too.
they looked so0 sad.
ma Uncle anthony came over 2 chek on us n stuff... he was stressed and it was obvious.

then after nights of watchn Madia and millions of DVDz....
One night Mom and Kia said " turn that off so0 we can tell yall somethin"...

My Mom started 2 cry.

she said " im gonna tell u this..."
then Kia startd talkin and said " Uncle Jesse was killed yesterday...

Dominique starts crying
then Brittnee starts cryin
and then lebre....

Im sittin there. i said " what u mean?"

she said "someone was following him and startd shooting at his car and he drove into a tree.
he was stuck in tha car and when he got out he realized he was shot but didnt know it.
He Bled 2 death. the doctors couldnt save him."


I started 2 cry and my eyes got real REAL swollen... My head startd 2 hurt.
I asked
why?
why?

why was everything going so0 wrong...???????????


Jesse had changed...
he was goin 2 church man...
he didnt wanna bang no more.
he stopped and he came out a new man. he took care of his girlfriend and his Family and his peoplez....

He was on his way 2 church man!


Now Hez My Angel.
Hez definitely in a Better place... Watching over all of us.

when i moved into my new house the wind blew my door open and it was fully closed. the 1st thing i said was "that was Uncle Jesse"
It was the heaviest Breeze i had felt in my life.
he blessed our new home.



I Love You Uncle Jesse.

HARD WORK!



HARDWORK!



HARD WORK!!!


Pounding those fucking words in my head over and over, i made myself Insane...
I literally skipped crazy and went insane in an instant.
every work out every practice i busted ma ass!

sweat and blood...

Always so0 hard on myself, i always was.
I always got Cz, Dz, and this F in math analysis ma senior year.

I was disappointed.
i never could or would admit that i was not good at math or just tha fact that i didnt get it.
Ma freshman year of college, 1st semester math i got a C. second semester i failed badly.
I stayed down on maself.

other times i was confident and strong and Focused...
when i was focused i was focused...

but i lost focus alot too...

In highschool i worked my hardest but in tha games das all that showed. My talents could never let out like i knew they could.
My senior yr at the start i showed my game and it felt good. i was ballin like i couldve a long timee ago.

after pre seas0n, i fell slowly in2 dis trap that let my game out on random occasions.
I wanted to go D1.
I wanted a scholarship.
I wanted the Hard work to pay off.

after i got shot i said i would make it...
i just knew i would.

I graduated highschoo and walked on at hampton U.
everything felt so0 good at the beginning...

Playing outside, i became tha man jus like at baldwin hills park.
tryouts i was frustrated n worrried.


i made it but that wasnt it 4 me, i got to practice and stunk!

I was wayy better than what i showed the coaches, ALLL YEAR!

i grew 2 change and i grew 2 leave and i left...

Hard Work Hard Work Hard Work... I continued 2 say it would pay off.

i was always so0 depressed when i wasnt hittin shots or my grades coulda been better...
my head would ring. every1 knew i was stressed or sad or angry...
my head was always heavy.
every1 knew if i was thinkn 2 much...

i kept saying that i would make it bcuz i felt that i had wat it took... I was willing to work to get better and i knew ma game was with every elses

I JUS COULDNT SHOW IT WHEN IT WAS TIME.

for tha most part. but i did otha times...

I didnt get picked up4 teamz fo nuthn...
Poeple knew that i could ball but they wantd 2 see how bad of a ball player i wus.
not tha good

The thing iz I beena baller and i got better all tha time... every day.


I put everything in Gods Hands.
i knew he would direct me and lead me 2 where i was bound 2 be.
I was on ma way...

God is Good all tha time, all tha time God is Good.

all this stuff man...
I went through soo much 2 get here..
I almost died.
My Mom almos died.
My brother almost died.
i never got ma respect earned.
i was accused of being wat i wasnt.
I was looked down upon 4 workin hard.
envied and hated 4 reasons ill never know...


I was a good dude bak then.
just alot of stuf goin on and i was fightn..
2 get thru.
2 get away.
2 be me.
2 stay alive...
2 eat, sleep and breathe that game i claim 2 be mine.

i was fightn every day of my life.


So0 many things in ma head tried 2 kill me.
my spirits.
i stressed myself out.
I didnt give up like any1 else would have...

It was hard.
hard work.
iono why i couldnt just show it off whenevr iwanted 2.

i had it and i still got it.
never had 2 depend on nobody.
my mom and gramma had ma bak...


momz says she wants a room in ma new house.
i told her ima get her her own house.
she think im playin tooo, lol
next paycheck i got her.

Gotta help brittnee pay dis rent and dino want these new shoes so0 i got her.
Breezy on scholly so0 his ass coo lol
Byron......I gotta get his ass something wit his greedy ass!

but yea Im Happy.
Its Crazy 2 reminisce because when i was in ma teens and yunger i loved 2 reminisce also...

it means alot more now tho, especially at this moment bcuz Im where i said i was gonna be, that Day in Mr. jenkins class.

i remember haha...
" I will make it. I will."
