The Replacement Bureau

                                                       The Replacement Bureau


        The more you live, the more you learn. The more you learn, the more you want to know.
 The amazing thing about life is, it takes you on a journey. You  enjoy the ride until it drops you off at the last stop with a no-return ticket. It recycles itself to the next human being after you have crossed over to experienced the ultimate learning adventure that you can share with no one.
  You go out this world the same way you came in ..... alone.  You go on the other side of the curtain, where so many have gone before you. Millions of the living wait their turn.
  Its all a facade, and illusion, this thing called life. Your fleshly house of many years becomes separated from your spirit and soul. The shell that was once your body is useless, inoperable and only good for fertilizer or possum food.
      God is your only hope. You have now entered the realm we call the unknown or the hereafter where God is in full control.
      Since we know this, why don't we talk more about God, heaven and hell, death, life and eternity.
What about the retribution of punishment for sin and the glory of reward for righteous living.
       Many of us travel through life with blind ambition as though God does not exist.
 Some seek fame and fortune while others want power even though death is always at our side.
    We are made so wonderfully by the creator that many of us never worry until the end.
 The facade is that every thing seems to be unchanging and forever when in reality nothing could be farther from the truth. We look for tomorrow in the shadow of today while today could be our last.
     Some people do not believe there is a God. They believe in the big bang theory or Charles Darwin or some other belief. So when your dead your done.
   The earth has millions of people yet many more millions of people have left this earth then our now presently here. Where are they? It's so amazing. In the next 100 or so years every living person that now exist upon this earth will be gone from here forever.
      They will all have replacements if life continues on this planet. That
 fact is incredible. It is also our reality whether we choose to face it or not.
  We are born, and rocked in the cradle, live our 24/7, have our day of fame and fun, live our trial, then planted in the ground. We leave all our worldly possessions behind. We become memories that fade in time
and dissipate like a breath of hot air blowing in the wind or pissing against the tide. A number in the replacement bureau.

A Word On Wurd

          Wurd radio 900 on the Am dial here in the city of Philadelphia Pa. is truly a great radio station.
The broadcasting seems to improve with every season change. It is a daily requirement for my
schedule. It's like taking your vitamin pills.
                  The information and education offered by the station is so vital to the survival of our
community at large. The radio station's news media is such a powerful force in shaping the public's opinion. It is vital to the African American Community and can be instrumental in changing lives.
             The station not only caters to and attracts black audiences but all ethnic groups.
     The the personalities that provide the commentary, information, and educational shows are of
extremely high quality. One listening to this station should always have pen and paper handy.
  I have heard life saving information in health reports, money making and tips on financial
matters, Religious, political and educational matters. It represents the voice of the people.
         In Africa's history, it was the voice of the drum sending messages through the airwaves. Before
talk radio here in Black America there were black newspapers books and word of mouth.

    During slavery there were codes and underground information.
    Today in this highly technical civilization we live in we have the computer with its cyberspace
highway providing an explosion of information and knowledge.
         Wurd breaks the news down into smaller pieces for us to digest.
  It's so sad that many Philadelphians are not tuned in to this station I've talked to a few. But when
I come across them I put the ...Wurd out.
        Congradulations to a great station and thanks to the late Dr. Walter Lomax who made this possible. Thanks to Sara Lomax Reese President Of Wurd who is doing a great and historical job.
   I quote, " THE GLORY OF OUR STORY IS IN THE MYSTERY OF OUR HISTORY " I read this on an illustration of art work. It is so true.
 Our stories have been denied and hidden from us. Information that we need must have a airway for us to receive. We have so many brilliant scholars, teachers , doctors etc. We need to hear from them. We have contributed so much to this society, yet much of it goes unrecognized.
     Thank You!!     WURD    Lets keep                                                                                          
                                                                                                               it going.
