How to love a woman-Bob Marley



“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s not perfect - you aren’t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there.”
- Bob Marley


This man, may smoke up ALOT and I mean ALOT...but he made sense. His message was to spread love both metaphorically and literally( he has 3 wives and many lovers and 11 kids who we know of but there could be many many more) He was a devout Rastafarian, a vegetarian and an amazing human being with good thoughts. Yes he did do weed, but hey men who do weed today should learn from him and spread good things around, not screw up their lives. Incase you didn't know Rastafarians do not approve of alcohol consumption and hence he didn't drink either. His father was an english man and his mother was black he was called a "half-breed" alot of the times. But his answer to the people out there was:


"I don't have prejudice against meself. My father was a white and my mother was black. Them call me half-caste or whatever. Me don't dip on nobody's side. Me don't dip on the black man's side nor the white man's side. Me dip on God's side, the one who create me and cause me to come from black and white"


He believed that everyone should love each other regardless of colour, creed or religion. I like his thoughts and I also love his music. We are blessed with reggae thanks to him and his music makes people happy. As a rastafari he believed that marijuana brought a person into a strong meditative state where a person prays wholeheartedly. I however don't think weed is necessary but i guess its the place you stay at and the people you are with that cause you to do things. Where I am, weed is def a no no for me and i can get into a prayer mode without it.Bob marley was one of the most popular and most misunderstood figures in modern culture. Trust me, I  get how he feels. I guess with great power come a lot of consequences :) He's not only a person with a good heart, but also a handsome man with super cool dreadlocks in my opinion, and he plays the guitar. He usually played with his Red Gibson Les Paul.


He passed away because of a type of malignant melanoma and his final words to his son, Ziggy were:


"Money can't buy life."


Oh yes Bob Marley, you are absolutely right...money can't buy life nor can it buy love. It just gives you the comfort of life which makes you temporarily happy. But real happiness comes from Love, doesn't matter if its from friends, a lover, or family.


Love does make the world go round, you just gotta see it and believe it.


Mind is power, remember?
