Artist + Business + Community = FAMILY

Hotep Family,

Thank your friends and family for first taking the time to open this blog, and reading what I have to say, that really means a lot. Secondly, those who don't know who I am (and that’s most of you), are probably wondering to yourself, 'who is this guy, and why should he be featured?’ Well I can tell you who I am.

My name is Tjatey Visionary, but because people have a hard time pronouncing it, I spell it Jah-tee, the T is silent. It means Vizier or Advisor. And during the Age of Pharaohs, the Tjatey would advise, the Pharaoh on important, almost all, matters. It was also the job of the Tjatey to lead in the Pharaohs absence, perform rituals, and healing, also public relations. On many occasions it was the role of the Tjatey to ensure that the people where taken care of, much like a governor of today. One familiar Tjatey you may know where Imotep, father of medicine, designer of the Steppe Pyramid, or for you bible buffs, The story of Joseph, son of Israel, in the bible shows the role of the Tjatey as he was placed in the position of advisor after interrupting a dream of the current Pharaoh of that story.

For my parents, I was a Miracle child, born 2/9/1985. Days before my conception, my mother was about 6 months pregnant, with a little girl, when one Friday, the day before her marriage to my father, she was hit by a racist European bread truck driver. She had been trying to cross the street, getting ready for her big day, when the motorist struck her on the side, carried her about a block and drove away as she rolled in the middle of the street. She lost the baby. She was rushed to the hospital, and aside from her lost, a broken arm and many bruises and scraps, she WALKED, yes WALKED down the hallway of her grandmothers house in North Memphis, TN., father on one arm, cast on the other. (THAT’S THE POWER OF A BLACK WOMAN)

The Creator saw fit to send another (or perhaps the same) Indigo Soul, to live in place of the one she'd lost. This time a boy, my father said I would not be here if not for that accident, I can't say that makes me happy, although I'm glad to be here, to experience and Fulfill the purpose, I was so significantly place here to fulfill. When my mother and father divorced, again tragedy struck. My mother married the father of her first child, my older sister by 3 years. And by my 3rd year here on earth, she wanted to have another child, but for some reason the Creator saw it fit that I as to be the last live created in her womb, when she was diagnosed with a form of stomach cancer, which left here unable to conceive. (Although I believe it was from the Chemo and not the cancer which cause her instability)

I remember at 6 years old, before I'd every even understood anything spiritual, but believe in something or one greater then my physical self, I began to pray as I entered into her room, seeing her laying on the bed, I remember saying within myself these exact words, "I love my mom, and I can not live without her, if she dies take me with her." After I said those words she awoke and smiled at me, gave me a hug and I watched her as she cleaned the bandage from her surgery the day before. Not to much longer after that, I remember her saying that the cancer was gone, with no signs that it would return. Other then being unable to have anymore children, my mother was going to be just fine, and she still had all her hair.

After that my parents really go into church. My mother having a catholic background, got really into her spirituality, and my father, whose mother was fully in church, found his calling as a pastor. The next few years of my life were Christianity, the way most of us started. My father went through his study phase, and as his children we were required to study as well. When he read the entire book, we, my sister and I, were obligated to do the same. I started reading the bible, and actually got through most of if. Unfortunately, I never fully believed any of it, and was really having hard times trying to understand most of it. I would find gaps and contradictions, and when I asked my father about them he would give me the answer all pastors give, 'The bible has gaps because God doesn't need to explain everything; we just have to believe what we have been giving.' That was really unacceptable, however I still like most people forced myself into just having faith.

The one thing I new for sure was that there was a God, because he talked to me frequently, I'd never have to actually hear a voice, because I always just knew what was said to me. Always asking questions, thirsty for knowledge, truth and understanding, but at the time Christianity was the only medium available to explain the things happening to me. So I took to the time to get some understanding of Christianity, but never did I completely fall victim to its deceit. The one thing I completely understood was that the only answers I really need to listen to were the ones that came directly to me, from the relationship that I had with the being higher then myself.

Years passed, and at 17 I knew that I was going to need to do something with my life, so my options were college or the military. Well I was tired of school, and nothing or one was telling me much about college. Mostly what I knew of college was that you go there and party a lot, drink a lot, and stress a whole lot. I didn't want that, so the military it was. I joined the United States Marine Corps, the hardest of them all. In 2003, 2 weeks after my graduation, I was on a plane to boot camp. Boot camp and school lasted about 6 mo altogether, and 2 weeks after that I was on another plane headed for Iraq.

It was about 2 years after 9/11 and we where still at war. My recruiter told me that I would not go to Iraq, said that it had been 2 years everyone was coming home. LOL, here it is 2009, 8 years since 9/11 and we are STILL over there, killing people for NO REAL REASON!!!!!!, other then money. Anyway, the next 4 years was full of crazy experiences, near death experiences, and things I'd rather not mention. Although, I did get to see 8 other countries for free including; Japan, Thailand, Germany, Iraq, Kuwait, Philippines, Qatar and Canada. Been to at least 29 states including Hawaii and Alaska.
Saw the world for what it really is, outside the news. And I can tell you a few things that I’ve learned;

1. NO other country is more screwed up then the US
2. People who live in countries considered to be third world are healthier then people who live in the US
3. The People are much nicer and everyone is not greedy. (For instance, you could leave a brand new $500 camera in a crowded restaurant in Japan, and the NEXT day, it’s either still there, or someone will actually turn it in and try to do what they can to return it.
4. In countries like Iraq, they only fight because they are standing up to a bully called US

Seriously they only kill Amerkkkaans because Amerkkkaans refuse to leave them alone. They were not always that way; it's like being picked on by a bully in middle school, but in high school you stand up and fight back, just to keep getting the crap kicked out of you until you are force to take drastic measures like blowing yourself to take him out.

I got out of the military in 2007, free from those chains; I was lead to another paradigm. I think one day I went to a friends house and he was watching this DVD, it was some short guy screaming about how much he hated Europeans because of all the damage they have done to our people over the centuries, and in that 4 hour documentary, my mind was flooded with answers to old question, but with those answers along came a wave of new question. And for the next year I'd dove myself into studying (which is still going on), and from this the only things I can see for me in my life is my own spiritual growth and the welfare of my family, friends, community, and people. My life took a 360degree turn and I see my path. Now I spend my time networking, connecting and building.

If it's feeding the homeless, reading/teaching to children or just planting seeds of knowledge and growth, I feel that it is my purpose to open as many minds a possible, and to predict, plan, and prepare for the rough times ahead for our people. I want to take this time to thank you for reading, I hoped you have a better understand of who I am, although it not important if you didn't because I believe in something bigger then myself, the Liberations of my people, and as long as that is your goal, then we can work together and build.

I'm currently working with others, like many of you to get this world of ours in order, and although I know that my part is small, it is apart if the bigger solution. Like the small ant, who only digs it's small part of one tunnel, when you have a 100 ants all digging small parts soon and very quickly you well have a maze of giant proportion in now time. Please contact me for anything, I really love to talk and listen and hold conversations. Thanks for reading, Love for you.
