I HAVE FOUND MY LOCATION!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I am realizing how much more time I need to devote to my blog. I'm living life. Gathering up my stuff. And preparing myself for the next leg of this journey. It's a daily process that I would prefer was segmented so that I could dole it out in chunks. Living however, comes quite differently. Un- but so naturally so. Sometimes I just want to take a walk by the ocean where I can be free. I long for luxury and comfort. I know so many women before me have had years of unending struggle in their walks. But I... I am working so that ... I can enjoy some of the fruits of my labor... And I plan to do this in a way that is not limited by finances or the needs of... well, if you are a woman reading you might understand where I am going with this. I am quietly and also boldly entering a space where I can be both connected and aloof. Where I can just be me... and I... I can say surely and quite firmly that I am enjoying it. thank u for reading. #businesswomanemergingwithartistwomanintow

DREAM LIFE, LIVING BIG! (playlist)




I often go back to this video, actually it was one video of 3 I believe.
They were my first posts to any online network. I was full of dreams,
no knowledge about how anything would actually happen. But I put one
foot in front of the other. And don't get me wrong... I MADE TONS of
mistakes. I stepped on toes of giants. I dug myself into my own holes
and back out again. I lived and died and lived again. I have learned so
much about my self, my life, and in doing so learned a huge amount about
human kindness.

You know there's something really special about teachers, mentors, and
heroes. They challenge in peculiar ways. If they have achieved anything
they are so respectful of your process not to intervene or interfere.

They know you like a book. They've read it because they know themselves.

They, like you are bold and courageous. Genuine and kind. Heroic.

Before I get all snotty and teary-eyed. I'll stop. And maybe go for a walk.

I've had my ears turned off and perhaps my heart.

Thank God for the spiritual work that I've done of late. It's OPENED all
of the doors. I am awake while I sleep I am so aware. Fears that once held
my grip are peeling away like the skin of dried onions.

I am respectful of you dear reader, and of myself.

I have had to learn how to do that, though. Honestly, I didn't know what love of self was. I am coming
to learn that now, in this very moment.

Thank you, dear UNIVERSE.
For particular teachers I will respect your space and not mention your names. I love and respect you dearly.
THANK YOU!......

please forgive me... and accept with a full and open heart my many many THANKS!

Sincerely in the process,

~molasses jones

Heroism on Election Day 11.16.12


So… the election was not the most exciting thing that happened to me today… In fact my day began with much more excitement than I had originally expected. I may have even saved a life… At least that’s what it felt like. On my hunt for food, after waking, stashing, and travelling, I exited the Gold line at Aliso Station and this guy, who is completely non-responsive, is leaning head-first into the fair machine. His legs are shaking slightly, his arms dangling like wet angel-haired noodles, but he doesn’t say a word. I was concerned so I called the MTA and told them what was going on… The lethargic voice on the other end of the call box seemed like this type situation was a part of his regular routine and that the man was now in his full view via… satellite cameras or whatever hi-tech thingy the voices from above use these days to spy on us regular folks… like being regular isn’t just enough. Anyway so I walk on… dude’s not responding, but I’m concerned mixed with hungry. I stop an oncoming passenger and let him know about the call and that it’s just a weird situation. However, I keep my eye on the guy and can’t seem to leave the train station when BOOM! Dude falls straight back and OUT! Both I and the other passenger run towards the guy who’s got a problem we can’t really solve and I immediately go into 10 years of CPR training mode… (just one of the many benefits of working for non-profits most my life, helping people in need meant being prepared for the worst to happen). He’s breathing is shallow. There’s no blood. His eyes are glazed over, but he’s not drugged-looking… and he’s still not responding. After about 5 minutes of checking him over and talking it over with passengers who are now concerned the voice comes back and asks me to call them using the voice box again. GREAT! An ambulance is on its way, for what seems like forever, when dude is still not responding and slowed his breathing for a few seconds. It was unnerving, but I kept tapping him and talking to him…telling him to keep breathing and asking him other random questions to make sure he didn’t totally lose consciousness. What seemed like a decade later we heard the sirens. Dude tried to lift his head a few times, while looking at me like he had found heaven… I just didn’t know what to do except to tell him that the EMTs were coming and that he should stay still. His name was on the card. He had some disability it seems, maybe he was deaf. Maybe he had a diabetic episode or slight seizure… By the time the EMTs came I booked out of there, but ran back to find out who this man was and if they knew what his problem was for future references. Large cities are full of large problems. This situation definitely drew me closer to Los Angeles in all of its glory… I will never forget how Election Day started for me… In a few moments we all will begin to see how it will end… Hopefully if I or someone I love or even didn’t love were in a situation where they needed someone to think quickly and provide help… they would… Let’s not get stuck in analysis paralysis..of our only microscopic worlds… let’s get over our differences… let’s help and lend a hand to one another. I won't deny that it felt completely amazing to help out. I felt like I'd done something really special. #Epic

A whole new world???


So I realize that my rants on twitter and facebook have been completely consuming my life... SO much that I may have missed out on a few stellar opportunities to have my dreams fully funded... and with that of course, have more FUN! People are beginning to get that no matter what I will continue until this creation of mine looks, walks, talks, and feels like 2 top notch organizations. And let me tell you this has NOT been easy. The haterade has been quite sharp and allowed me time to GROW. California has presented many geographic challenges and I, just for one year, got super stressed. Women are applauding me with their eyes and others can believe I am this crazy to see my dream through... so crazy that I would spend warm nights sleeping under the stars. Shelter life is inadequate for many reasons. I applaud UNIVERSE for hearing my dreams and forcing me to make this life real. I totally get that you hear me and understand me.. now... I must... learn to accept that fact. The fact that I am loved, cared for and respected, even if in some ways it's distant.. in many others way I am so close to living my life... IN A WHOLE NEW WORLD!!!! *watch this space video is coming soon. As soon as we raise funds for an ipad.... or some camera angel comes along and K'POW!... Camera and transportation angels do exist! p.s.

F.U.S.R.-molasses jones


F.U.S.R. (Fuck You Sorry Rappers)-molasses jones I guess I'm the only one that's pissed about what Hip Hop and the media have done to our community?

Tuesday, May 8, 2012


And so the latest headline reads: Queen Latifah Comes Out of The Closet Read more at http://www.inquisitr.com/232342/queen-latifah-comes-out-of-the-closet/#bmS29iGJBiLRhtg4.99 We're just sayin' that we... the blog staff, are happy to have Queen be true to herself. But We are smelling more in the pot. Shit happens in threes so although like most of you feel... we know that this is not NEWS to most of Queens LGBT friends, family, and fans. We're wondering who else is coming out in true fashion. We just read that Rhi Rhi had a date with her female mate http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/rihanna_goes_on_date_with_woman_bsL5ZGqPH1NuzK1fs425RJ">http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/rihanna_goes_on_date_with_woman_bsL5ZGqPH1NuzK1fs425RJ More than likely this is just put out there to get her name in the headlines but um for real... I mean what is the world coming to SWEET friends...

Vanessa L. Williams, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Jennifer Holliday, Bishop Desmond Tutu, Harry Belafonte, Whoopi Goldberg, Michael Irvin, Monique, John Salley, John Legend, Danny Glover, Mary J Blige I MUST MAKE CONTACT WITH!

Today?? I mean really.


I usually don't take the time out to respond to such bull.

I mean really... TODAY?? How can it possibly be that a person
in a position of power... YET AGAIN?! Is found committing such
an eggregiously racist and truly unreal act.

It makes me think... I mean what's the fucking point???

So I just take a minute and I realize that like my CRAZY cousin
would say is "sometimes you have to look at the source".

It seems the world is ripe with hatred. Ripe with evil. Ripe
with all the stuff that shows how far we've moved away from
our true nature... which is to love one another. It doesn't
make me hurt.

It makes me sick to my stomach.

Enough time spent on this. Enough said.

home remedies: clear skin

I'm used to being told how young I look. My age is a mystery to most.
I have a secret I don't tell. You won't find it in this post.
It was passed down to me by my grandmother, and her grandmother before her.

AS the story goes superstars were her fans and all the neighbors adored her.

"Honey" they would call her. Come on ova heah gul. Sit up on my lap. Before your momma comes and gives my neck a twirl."

And the neighborhood boys would laugh. And the girls would hiss and stare.

But the truth is she couldn't help it. The jones blood was mixed up in her
her. Her grandmother Cherokee Indian. Her grandmother White and Black.

We never give out home remedies. Because selling family secrets is whack!
