OHC: Endure!
1 Corinthians 9:24 (New Living Translation):
Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win!
Ecclesiastes 9:11:
I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

When you stand up and fight for right, the Devil's Demons will attack you. They will attack your family. They do their best to do what they were born to do: destroy. The evil ones will work to take away everything from you.
I know what I'm talking about. I'm in a battle with a bunch of devils. They've tried to ruin me! Hoped to break me. Temporarily took away my freedom. Violated my rights. Prayed I'd lose all my worldly possessions. They wanted to see me homeless and destitute and jobless. Worse thing is, they tried to poison my children against me. It didn't work. It never will. I'm protected by a power much greater than man. And I know that the race isn't given to the swift or the strongest or the richest; victory comes to those who believe in Him and endure to the end.
The conspirators in Operation Heightened Contradiction were destined to lose because they were on the side of wrong. Their very purpose was evil -- lie, steal, kill, poison and destroy. No lie can live forever. The truth alway, eventually, prevails.
So even if a nasty nymph intentionally inflicts emotional distress on you, and the whole world pressures you to do that which you know is wrong, Don't Surrender ... Don't Quit ... Don't Give Up ... Lean on the Lord, Trust in Him and you will prevail. It's hard to remember this when you are in the middle of the fight and the enemy seems to be winning, but try to remember that the fight isn't your's. Fight to Win! Endure! And you will prevail. I'm a living witness.

Some of you are saying to yourself: what in the world is Nate talking about?! Is he going crazy. Who are these evil people and what, specifically, have they done to you and why? If I were reading this with no context I'd probably be asking the same questions. Suffice it to say that I, your faithful servant here at the Cincinnati Black Blog, have been under attack and I'm seeing light at the end of the tunnel. I have done what I'm encouraging you to do which is Hold On and Keep Believing.

So...in all of your enduring, have you managed to pay any child support? Just curious - as are your faithful readers, I'm sure.
Keep the faith. Carry on! God Bless.
For your information, nosey, I pay child support every week. I haven't missed a payment in months! No matter what you devils throw at me, it will never stop me.
As far as child support goes, have you managed to get yo baby daddy to pay you any child support? I didn't think so. Has he spent any time with those kids of yours? Maybe you ought to handle your own business and get out of mine.
The greatest contribution by a black person to our society has been the song "Shamalama Dingdong".
