So today I turn 25........

And maybe the superior feeling of being this age will hit me sometime soon. Or maybe it's because there's really not much else left out there for me to "do" per se', locally at least. I mean there's a rack of places I havent seen (worldwide), that are on my list of "must sees" before I depart you all, but as far as in terms of birthday events, I'm pretty cool on all of that.

Before I go any further, I want to say thanks and I appreciate all the texts, e mails, etc. wishing me a happy birthday. LMAO @ the confusion of when my birthday actually is, but I appreciate and LOVE the LOVE I am recieveing nonetheless!!!

** Sometimes I get carried away with my thoughts, and come across as "rambling" but hey, you're riding with luke motherfucker,lol, so take it for what its worth **

I enjoy being me. I enjoy the circle of people I interact with on a regular basis, those whom I can see while out, and speak to before them speaking to me, those who actually know Jon, and not Luke. *sidebar* NO I dont have SPLIT PERSONALITIS!!

I am told often that i'm "hard to figure out". And to respond to that in the simplest form, I respond with " don't try to figure me out". I am me, and if I was to give you anything else, well it would be uncivilized, plus I do what I want to do, and I like what I like.

Personally, I have too much going on in my life to try and figure anyone out, and I feel as if, just like the "material things" in my life, if I like them for whatever reason, then thats enough in itself to keep the "like" going.

"2 things I hate..liars and thieves, they make my blood boil" - Andre 3 stacks

and well, that pretty much says it all!!

I love my family..And not just in the BLOOD sense. IF i fucks with you, then thats what it is, either youre my fam, or you arent, theres no in between with me. I go and will ride hard for mine Either you make it or you dont, either youre grinding, or youre in the way!! To me, its as easy as that. Some people wonder why I dont speak to people that were a part of my past, or how can I easily ignore someone, or say fuck em with a straight face, and not look back.

Well one the past is exactly what the definition states.
# 2 if it was something or someone who needed to be a part of my "present" then it/they wouldnt be a part of my past, theyd be right here witnessing this empire (D.F.G) thats being built from the ground up.

Rightfully so, the trials, tribulations, etc. that i've been through help mold me, and the state of mind im in today, and I appreciate that, but you cant keep old baggage along with you day to day, for that simple reason, youve gotta keep pressing forward to reach your full potential, and that means without whatevers in, or whoevers in your past.

I love, live , and grind for my son, and would DIE for my mines.





"Losings UNoptional gots to hold my grip so i goes through this, so who I love wont go through shit, at this point i'm emotionless -Sandman, "Emotionless" We Got It For Cheap vol.3

All in all, I'm me, and thats all I can be and thats all i can give you is ME!! Nonchalant attitude and take on lifes certain issues and all, really dont constitute lack of interest from my end, because, well hey if i was UNinterested at all, youd be nonexistent!

So I appreciate and love my people that keep it real with me, and ride for your boy. And through these building stages, keep me in your prayers, for ive come a long way, too long for you to turn your back now.

-Thug changes, Love changes, and best friends become strangers - Nas

(all you die hard NAS heads, please dont come at my neck if i fucked that line up, but I feel as if my point was made)

and if youve fallen into the, "I turned my back on Luke category" scroll up, and re read a few lines

Let me do me now, and we'll be doing the world later!!

Luke


lol, as stated earlier, this made its way to another rambling session, but this was an unplanned, rushed, blog session, SUE ME!!!


*** The reason for creating this blogspot, was to give people who ARE still trying to figure me out and those alike, after me suggesting they not do so, just a glimpse of what I do like. And if i'm doing what i want to do, then what that is exactly. Nothing major, just a shotgun view of whats going on in my life @ times, my mind, and what catches my attention while out and about, on line, etc (hence, RIDEwithluke).

Happy Mothers Day...

to all the mothers out there that actually handle their business!! People are quick to get on a man who has a child, and about what he does, and doesnt do, and what he can and cant do or should and shouldnt do..but fail to realize or even mention that a woman, with a child, can be worth a sack of minced dolphin shit too!!

So if you're a parent PERIOD, such as myself...Todays for you!!

I swear to you..I do not listen to the radio...AT ALL!!

...because I can't hear anything worth a dead dogs final bowels thats why!! Everything is so, "I'm in it for the $$, or i'm doing it just because I can" not because of the true reason people started it from the beginning, for the love!!

So now, you're asking yourself, so Luke, what would get you to turn on the radio again....Well as you shoud ld knwo by now, more of that good ol Roots Crew...Rakim, NWA, Nas in his rawest form, the early Wu, you catch my drift?? Until then, YOU TUBE, you're my only friend!!



Classic NWA here...





And the countdown begins......
