Peter, one of Jesus' twelve apostles, denied knowing Jesus three times

 Peter, one of Jesus' twelve apostles, denied knowing Jesus three times. Today WE have no such luxury. Explanation as my mood is sour due to talk of war. No more War!

 Developing Extra Life Charity Gaming Team

Yoda's Warriors of Faith

We're on a mission to play games to help change kids' health. We've each chosen our local Children's Miracle Network Hospital. With 170 hospitals to choose from, each location treats thousands of kids annually, regardless of their illness, injury or family's ability to pay. This particular group is an adult PC team with the goal of raising funds for worthy youth charity cause (not with the ranked competition series), that being said here's additional information. ALL Children's Hospital St. Petersburg, Florida is the eve benefiting non-profit. Haha during this forming year there is no interaction with the youth we will support which is not essential for the purpose of this charity and/or partnership effort. The launch date is no longer than November 2025. As of June 22, 2025 the id is concept stage not yet completed nor put onto a practice schedule.

The Team organizer Grumps Yoda on the Nexus (not gramps) advice is not to rushing formation of the group in its initial year to be played on the Blizzard gaming platform Heroes of the Strom. 

Please reach out for interest to atyodabrooks@gmail.com. Peace, love and unity.

Repeat Verse Even During Pride Month

 From a speck a dust to being created in the image of God. Upon this rock I shall build the church the verse cannot leave the climate of discussion during this heated summer of 2025! Not a rallying call to build a new church remembering our legacy as a faith ; I am just a believer. I pray that tonight nutrition is provided to those who need to muster their faith in the lord God almighty (less meat and more vegetables on our diets people)! Peace and love. The actually Bible verse goes as follows: Matthew 16: 17 

Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock ........I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bond in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven"

   This Bible verse speaks of the power of prayer in faith rather it is written or spoken. If I may pray for not just myself but the reader of this post hatred released, fear & anxiety, bigotry released, spirits of depression & adultery released.  Family bonds strengthened in spite of ‘complexities’ for prayer in additional to small gestures are sufficient for believers in Jeus the Christ.  Amen - A.T.

New FAFSA Application & Process is Descriminatory

 New FAFSA Application & Process is Discriminatory

Why does the new application ask for one's spouse to act as a contributor when pursuing higher education is an independent action made by the individual student. That can be used as a means for one partner to hold back another that is more than unfortunate. This section of FAFSA Application and/or process I advocate should be done away with! It is unnecessary and discriminatory.  I must speak up on this point which benefits many diverse and not diverse persons meaning the majority ethnically. To add I might offense someone in audition by saying I never got a job, contract nor position in education based on affirmative action nor & diversity & inclusion initiatives which at the are logical then and now. This is beyond such political whim issues. The United States of American supported a War supporting a women’s education throughout the world including Afghanistan.  No let me clear I did not serve in a war, but I support our service men and woman every day simply by pushing forward supporting freedom & democracy in addition to paying taxes in the past, present and trust me all will in the future. Any measure today which turns back the clock is counterproductive. Peace, love and freedom!!!

Speak up youth even to your parents; respectfully. Spare the rod take the rod and throw it if you must!

   What I did not like as a teenager was Moms saying you're trying to be white when volunteering with a diverse group right in our very community (unpaid). Where did such talk come from? I have not raised kids, but such talk creates an issue with a kid who is not able to speak up versus such a statement. Flustered I bet that child would be or simply say "What" when they in their heart are doing what is right...period. This is my opinion even thinking when having dinner one a waitress some how just said what she think I will hate. That was not her assumption to make simply from my eye contact with her, as I could eat a variation of pasta any day even vegetarian pasta sauce. I stand by the youth who know what I am talking now as adult. Speak up but respectfully. -A.T. Yoda Brooks

Lead by Love Versus Crisis, Innuendo and War

 Lead by Love Versus Crisis, Innuendo and War.

    A friend whom recently lost his mom, a former leader, prayed for him during a marvelous mediation service. This same friend & colleague once asserted to me that perhaps throwing a pen or pillow relates to me doing that to a person. He also said that a certain retail store can also be considered the house of God; such a remark might be humorous to some. Not saying his name out of respect. First time I heard that said; much admiration goes out this type of leadership and getting back into the work force after whatever perceived failure. That is strength how now WE learn. "Lead by Love Versus Crisis, Innuendo and War" I don’t believe in hoodoo nor voodoo; that is simply passion and emotion. Wisdom and truth are that Christians do not need to be concerned with such things which were done away with from biblical teachings under the New Testament the word of God, the Bible is the most inspirational book (I have read) our faith and nation are built upon it. A vison perhaps a dream which came to me this tuff fucking week for many people says keep the faith "Under God and for the nation" - A.T. Yoda Brooks

Shiny Star - Always Loyal

“ The theory that observing a system or phenomenon can alter it is known as the observer effect, particularly prominent in quantum mechanics, where the act of measurement inherently influences the system being observed. “

Here's a more detailed explanation:

• Quantum Mechanics:

  In quantum mechanics, the observer effect arises because the act of observation, or measurement, is an interaction that can disturb the quantum system, causing it to change its state. 
• Examples:

  • Double-Slit Experiment: A classic example is the double-slit experiment, where observing the path of an electron through the slits causes it to behave as a particle, while not observing it allows it to behave as a wave. 
  • Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle: This principle states that the more precisely you know the position of a particle, the less precisely you know its momentum (and vice versa), and vice versa. 
• Beyond Physics:

  The concept of the observer effect extends beyond physics, influencing fields like sociology, psychology, and linguistics, where the act of observing can alter the behavior of the subjects being studied. 
• Mitigation:

  In behavioral studies, researchers use strategies like physiological measures, habituation, naturalistic observation, blinding, computer-based testing, and pilot testing to mitigate the observer effec

Words & Prayer: There is space to learn & grow

Words & Prayer: There is space to learn & grow on matters of love and peace.

Matthew 5:43. “You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. ' 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven."

I am providing no commentary on the verse today, however it the one I looked up. Summer definitely is here!

'No Kings' protests span multiple cities across Los Angeles area

St. Pete also representing well during the June 14, 2025 Non Kings Peaceful Protest. I have not yet vetting the No Kings organization itself however its platform and structure appears to be similar to Move.org which is a respectful grass roots group. Representing St. Petersburg FL lets move this momentum forward to win elections! Do not be afraid to express democratic rights standing in the gap for those not able to be there due to health reasons, disability, fear, our fragile communities, or on the fringe lets do what WE can to support, incircle & protect them.  Peace, love and democracy! - A.T.
