Make-up

Uncle Chuckie, why do so many woman where so much make-up?

It's ignorance and weakness.

Ignorance and weakness?

Yes. Weakness do to the fact that they are not strong enough to understand why they let the industry/media tell them how they are suppose to present themselves. They are told that they are not up to life's standards. You must look like we say you are suppose to look.
Ignorance do to the fact that they are not sure who they really are. When they look in the mirror they do not like who they see so they try to cover it up, disguise it. They continue to put on more and more until they don't recognize who's in the mirror any more. They shave off their beautiful brows off and draw new ones on.
Ignorance do to the fact that they do not realize that when they look in the mirror they are not looking at their outer selves. They are looking at their inner selves and they do not like what they see.
Say that there is a young man and a young lady who frequent the same place twice a week. They smile/flirt with each other. One day he speaks to her and ask her name. They have a brief conversation then go about their way. The next time they meet, she is all made-up with different cosmetics and he speaks to her and goes about his way. Now she's upset and is wondering what is wrong. She blames him and never wants to speak to him again. Why didn't he have a conversation with her? He no longer recognized her. He was attracted to the real her. Her natural beauty. When she came in looking like someone else, he was no longer attracted to her. And the reverse is the same. If he had met her with her make-up on and was attracted to that and when she finally took it off and he was no longer attracted to her. He can see the real her and how she do not like who she really is.
If you don't like who you are, how can you expect someone else to like who you are? You have to Love you first then everything will follow. However, you can't over Love yourself and make everyone else a second class citizen. It is a beautiful balancing act that we all must learn.

Dry Mouth

Uncle Chuckie, my mouth has been dry for a couple months now, especially the upper mouth. What can I do?

Are you take a lot of medications?

Yes. At least three or four.

That's the cause of your dry mouth. To start, try chewing on celery stalks and/or carrot sticks and licorice sticks through out the day. There is a mouthwash by Jason called Healthy Mouth with Melaleuca(tea tree oil), Clove oil, Cinnamon & Golden Seal. I would add some Ginseng extract, Sasapparilla & Licorice root extracts. You can also add lemon or lime juice and a pinch of cayenne or paprika to a glass of water to help heal the endocrine system. Drink plenty of water throughout the day and add some chlorophyll to the water as you sip on your water.
Now if you let know what you are being treated for then maybe we can come up with something to help limit the meds you are taking too.

What?

Ask Uncle Chuckie? Who do you think you are?

Think? No one. I know that I am a son of The Father, a brother of The Son and a companion of The Holy Spirit.

Real Man

Hey Uncle Chuckie, What's wrong with these females? Hey, I'm almost 30 yrs. old. I'm a man. A man has his needs. Why can't they understand that?

If you are a man, why do you have to keep reminding yourself? Age does not make you a man. Your actions make you a man. You do not declare yourself a man. How you treat others and how people see you determines whether you are a man or not. Manhood is not self-proclaimed, it is earned. There are twenty, thirty, forty & fifty yr. old boys walking up and down the streets. Too many have flunked Man School and even more have dropped out because they couldn't handle it.
There is no such thing as a "Real Man". Either you are a man or you're not. A man not only seeks Knowledge and Wisdom for his understanding, he seeks it for everyone else. Knowledge and wisdom means nothing to you until you give it away.
A man treats a woman gently and with special care. Not to disrespect her and bounce around from woman to woman. The Father Loved man so much, he gave him a delicate creature to Love, look after, protect and nurture. A man need not to feel like a king to treat a woman like a queen. If you treat a woman like the Queen the Father made her to be for man, She should automatically treat you like the King you are. A man puts nothing before his family.
A man's order of things; 1. His first family - The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.
                                     2. His wife and/or children.
                                     3. His external family (parents, siblings, relatives).
                                     4. Everything else he deems important.
A man is made out of Love. And Love is not Love until you give it away.

P.S. Man School never closes.

Dry Eyes

Uncle Chuckie, what can I do about my dry, red eyes?

Well, one thing you need is lutein. Lutein is an antioxidant found in fruits and vegetables like kale, spinach, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, carrots, kiwi, egg yolks, pears and also found in pastachio nuts. You also need vitamin A.
Two supplements I like for dry eyes are; Solaray Lutein Eyes 6 or 12mg veg. caps. A lot of the lutein they use comes from spinach, blueberries, rosemary and bilberry. I also like Life Time Brite Eyes which has bilberry and eyebright.
Also use a vaporizer to assist in moistening your eyes.

The "N" word

Uncle Chuckie, why do these guys always call each other "Nigga"?

Ignorance. Ignorant to the fact. They don't know the real meaning of the word nigga or nigger. After the revolts of the 50's and 60's our people felt that we couldn't't let them dictate how we live our lives so we must create our own way of living. We developed our own music, our own fashions and our own language. Unfortunately too many chose the wrong route. They kept the 'ghetto' state of mind. "And if it ain't no ghetto we gonna make a ghetto." They try to turn discriminating language into what they call language of love and friendship. And the main ones are; Nigga, Dog, Bitch, Boy and Girl. When we are young, just little children, we hear our parents say about us, "Look at my little man!" "She's my little lady." When we became adults it's, "That's my boy right there!" "I'm gonna hang out with the girls tonight." Street language, "Hey! Wha' sup my nigga!?" "Come here bitch, you no you my girl."
I ask a few guys, "What is the definition of the word nigga?" One guy literally looked at me and said, "Us?" I must admit, I used the word a lot growing up until my baby sister told me, "You sure do use that word a lot." I thought about it and she was right. I looked up the definition of that word and have not used it since. The dictionary I had when I was growing up had it listed as 'a derogatory name for a black person. A lazy, shiftless person.' Now in today's dictionary it began with; "a black person. a member of any dark-skinned race. Then is says "a person of any race or origin regarded as contemptible, inferior, ignorant, etc. a victim of prejudice, similar that suffered by blacks.'
Those are still not the real definition of the word 'nigga'. The real definition is," 1/5th of a man, lower than a dog." And what are these people calling themselves now? "Niggas', Bitches and Dogs."
What's wrong with this picture. They don't have to put us down anymore and call us niggas and bitches...we are doing a fantastic job of keeping ourselves down.

Sagging

Uncle Chuckie, why do people sag?

Today's sagging started in the middle 80's to early 90's. It started as a sad and unfortunate status symbol. Some guys wanted to show how bad they were. "Hey! I am the dog cause I just got out of prison." In prison they take away your shoelaces and belts to prevent people from hanging themselves and others. So when they got out of prison they continue to let their pants sag below their waist and let the tongue of their gym shoes lap everywhere. They believed that they had street respect by presenting themselves like that.

What they don't realize is that sagging goes back a lot further than that. Back when our people were slaves, the men tied ropes around their waist to help keep their pants up. The salve masters would walk up to them and snatch the rope from around their waist and tell them, "You ain't no man. Y'all lower than a dog. You ain't suppose to wear your pants on yo' waist boy!"
Now it's a fashion? Instead of progressing we are steadily regressing. Wake up my people, Wake up.

People with good Hearts!

I was just asked, "Why would someone with a good Heart and beautiful Spirit have such a hard time in life and now have cancer again."

Unfortunately, in this life there is a such thing as displaying too good of a Heart & Spirit and too many take advantage of that. Now it is time for others to return the favor in a BIG WAY!

They believe that they have angered the Father(God) and that's why they are going through what they are going through. What makes the Father angry is the people that takes and have taken advantage of her. What disappoints Him is that we don't forgive ourselves after he has forgiven us. We put added pressure and stress on us by not forgiving ourselves. She can't let her Faith dwindle and believe in herself most of all. Continue to do the good that she is doing. Continue to talk to the Father through the Son and watch things get better. And we all have to be there for her and with her with a positive state of mind and be real with it. And no negative thoughts or actions. The Father do not work in negativity and neither should we.

My first blog

So many people come to me and ask for advice on health, religion, relationships, etc. Sometimes at work they seem to wait in line for the opportunity to be next. My sister suggested that I start a blog. Here it is. You can ask me almost anything. I'm waiting.
