"FBI & National Security Letters"
© Raul Cortes Jr. 12-24-2021

New Jersey has the power to inflict "Full Spectrum Dominance" on its citizens.
Our movements are completely tracked geographically where we're stepping in.
Is it true, our liberty to any privacy has been sacrificed on the altar of the NSA,...Collecting, storing our metadata & can brandish anyone as a terrorist today?
The FBI can issue "National Security Letters" & freely obtain your information...Without a judicial warrant & you'll never be notified of an investigation.
I wonder how many people are involved & how much money is on the line.
Did the movies accurately describe those who serve & protect us in these times?
Did everyone that I'm surrounded by, sign a nondisclosure agreement?
Does everyone has to lie to me & cover up my potential to be demised & treason'd?
The life of the targeted, where everything's connected & vulnerable.
Impressions can be deceiving & impersonators can make you culpable.
Are authorities "anonymizing" behind my biological family, household & associates?
A chain of proxies against one person.
A manipulated construct, from techno sorcery, witchcraft, magic & curses.
We can't assume that everyone's a counterfeit.
Unless there's duplicate phones, malware & stolen passwords involved in this.
Anything can prove something, but nothing can prove anything.
If every single detractor silenced & working together, I can be framed for everything.
Master editors of a desired prosecution.
Witnesses, soundbites & visuals or else the visibility of the system's useless.
All of these applications, hardwired into my phone.
Agent apps, malware & spyware coming from other devices & computer's control.
If people invade my privacy, it's nothing to worry about.
If I try to get it back, it becomes a crime ridden by clout.
You can't control what you don't see.
But instead of making a spectacle out of me, 1st scan my frequency.

If my job felt betrayed by me, they have to understand that it is not intentional.

I was betrayed &/or setup by people who misinformed those I work for and with.

This is why, most of the time, when people treat me like a psychological ragdoll, I don't take it personally.

It's people I used to be close to, that have been offered an opportunity to interfere with my life for some money. They are spying on me & conspiring ways to inconvenience my life until I'm dead or in jail. This started in 2019, but my digital privacy has been compromised, by my "parents" years before that.

Any information spread about me that compels a person to inconvenience me, is gravely mistaken.

I'm very loyal to my job. I know in my heart I'm giving my job...my everything.

When I returned to move into Princeton Avenue in Trenton NJ back in June, across the street from KFC, the room I was given had cobwebs everywhere, dead mice, flies & roaches.

They left that room just as it was, ever since the last tenant passed away, in that room. Until I got here.

I wouldn't be surprised if he was setup too, as the alleged cause of his death, was from a drug overdose. He threatened to kill me if I told the police that he sold & used drugs & invited prostitutes. I never snitched, but he pi**ed me off every other night because he couldn't keep the noise down.

Landlord don't want to acknowledge this because they want to present a clean image. And they've avoided years of inspection, so they've recently cleaned it up a little bit ever since I threatened to call the animal-police.

I've faced sanitation issues before (stemming from this address), but I was able to heal from it after moving out. Most certainly.

I've been able to experience glimpses of full restoration of my life, but never the full manifestation.

Nearly, everything that some people accuse me of, I was setup.

So my job receives my forgiveness, if they felt like I deserve to be punished or mistreated.

I was shown po*******hy by my stepfather as a PR***EN, & molested by my stepbrother as an early teen. My mother knew about it, & me not receiving any justice from those occurrences, has led me to believe that my mom was in support of these occurrences.

After all, my mom thinks in**st is ok, & that witchcraft is real but "doesn't affect her". She told me this in a text-message, around October 2020. I've had multiple phones hacked & Google accounts shutdown since before & after that time.

And there you have it. Tie this all together, & you see how much of a setup my life is. I'm innocent, until proven guilty. And I deserve to live & be restored JUSTICE & WEALTH for my pain & suffering.

'Powers I Value Most'
© Raul Cortes Jr. 11-29-2021

Many different powers for assorted purposes.
I just want to shed light on the ones that I value earnestly.
When I meet a person for the first time, & they seem aggressive or negative...I have the power to understand, not take it personal & be more sensitive.
For past experiences, hurtful people & memories that are morbid...I resort to enlightened self interest & the power to forgive.
For karmic reasons & people I'm indebted to..
I have the power to change the momentum, apologize & be corrected too.
When I am afraid, discombobulated, angry, cursed or under a spell..
I have the power to affirm the opposite, & wish myself well.
When 10,000 people have a shared perspective I refuse to receive..
I got the power to reflect on what I truly believe.
When I'm surrounded by lies, setups & manipulation grids..
I got the power to discover the truth & tell it like it is.
When I've tried everything, waited a long time & was ready to give up...I had it imbedded in my heart, the power to trust.
When there's no one I can call on or talk to & hear what I say...I can reach the creator, with the power to pray.
If the powers that be accessible, doesn't have enough strength...I have the power to dig deep within myself & be more intense.
When trapped beyond my understanding, as if I don't got what it takes..
I can detach from all my senses & excercise the power of faith.
Environment shapes behavior, so when I feel pressured & misjudged..
I have the most important power of all, to rise above, out of love.
Regardless of how I feel or what's going on in any second, minute or hour...for just any given circumstances, I got the power.

'The Things I Hate'

© Raul Cortes Jr. 6-14-2021

One of the things I hate the most, is to be characterized as the men who raised me.

When I lived with my father for a short period of time, after I graduated high school, I learned a very strong & powerful lesson.

It was a depressing time for me, as I had changed my mind about living with my father, but mom & stepdad did not allow me to change the decision I made. It's like I was encouraged & guided into living with my father.

I was so tired & depressed from living a very repetitive & boring life with mom & stepdad.

I did not understand at that time, why I felt that way. My parents (all three of them), called me lazy. I had no ambition or drive for anything other than basketball, video games & {{Rap Music}}.

The abuses I experienced as a child were hardwired into my psyche, & I would reenact them unto myself as well.

My father was a womanizer. He had multiple women he could call.

How do I know? Because he instructed me to answer the house phone when he went out to party with his friends, & he told me what to say to his girlfriends when they called.

I worked the overnight shift at Target. I was tired & I had no energy when I didn't work. Half the time I couldn't sleep because I was too tired to fall asleep.

----------------------

[[SIDE BAR]]

((It was a miserable life I had. I don't know what would of happened to me if I didn't have rap music to ease my mind. Some of the lyrics were extremely wordy, highly intelligent & uplifting. Other lyrics were very gangster, derogatory & explicit. I Almost Memorized Everything I Heard.))

((But the common denominator with every rap song was the FLOW & RHYMING TECHNIQUE that these rappers had, regardless of which rapper it was & what they were saying. I was hooked to it.))

---------------------------

Eventually, the game that my father played with his women caught up with him. He had one female over half his age (19yrs old) & another female ten years young

06/14/2021

Universe,

I'm sorry. Please forgive me.

Thank you. I love you.

Help me to let go of the narrative I wish to change. Help me be consistent. Sometimes it's so hard.

I can, I will, I must change & grow.

So thank you, I love you. I'm sorry, please forgive me.

05/17/2021

Thank you to everyone who provided me with donations & job ideas, I appreciate it fully.

I admit, my mood/energy is not consistent as I'd like it to be, especially for the last month, but I know I'm blessed despite what I go through.

Over a few weeks ago, I was laid off from my job (BGC) due to a conflict resolution that didn't turn out in my favor. Everything happens for a reason & I was grateful to had lasted as long as I did. A lot happened, but I still don't know how to communicate my experience without sounding like I don't appreciate my time at the club.

(I took trauma training classes & obtained more of an in-depth knowledge of what it means to be an A.C.E.S. child, a form of confirmation in much of what I went through/learned as a child & adult).

The very next day after getting laid off from the club, I get word that my mother is in the hospital, from internal blood loss that can't be located. She had a blood transfusion as well but from what I was told a few weeks ago, it didn't produce the proper results.

I don't know how my mother's doing, considering we didn't get along & had unresolvable issues that did not end peacefully. And I haven't inquired about it either since the initial notice.

I see this as a bit of a disposition, because I don't want to ask for help from my parents, especially at a time that my mom is in bad condition. I would prefer to continue to keep my distance until I feel I can trust enough to visit her, if she's still fighting. I don't want to fake my presence around her & I don't want people feeling sorry for my decision.

I put my trust in a higher power, to resolve these issues in a fair manner, because I don't know what else to do.

I passed up two job opportunities, it has to be something I can commit to so I can be effective. I did have a bit of a conflict with the landlord but I'm in the process of resolving that, hopefully I can be rent-debt free in 30 days.

Again, thank you to all who reached out, shared ideas & donated. I will continue to push forward as best as I can & hope I can make the best of the love that you've shown me.

'Mindset Vs Mine Sets (Psalm 37)'
© Raul Cortes Jr. 4-29-2021

Evildoers lurk, but I won't fret over.
No envy or anymosity towards the workers of iniquity, because they won't get over..
On me. They will wither as the green herb when the grass is cut low.
I can't do good, dwell in the land & be fed unless, it's in the Lord I trust though.
It is the Lord, whom I'm delighted in.
Desires like a thunderbolt, may the rainmaker strike me quick.
Unto the Lord, my ways are committed.
Because true manifestation powers come from him, it's up to him to bring it.
Righteousness & judgment, those words seem to be played out.
Yet they are as evident as sunlight in the noonday, to make perpetual darkness stay out.
In the name of the Lord I rest, for him I wait patiently.
A wicked person prospers but I won't fret, the Lord controls my fate faithfully.
In the technology age, wicked devices function in many forms.
Anger & wrath, I keep far away. Vengeance is deactivated in any form.
The cord of my patience, I will not cut off.
Evildoers won't connect to the source, so they will inherit the rough cost.
Earth shall be inherited by the meek.
& they will delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
The just are plotted against by the wicked.
Those with badges & the badgeless stalkers will be laughed at, their days are within inches.
Their bows are bent & swords are drawn.
If the Lord intervenes, then I'd say bring it on.
I can be misunderstood, misconstrued, misguided & misrepresented in many situations.
But one thing that will not be taken from me, is an upright conversation.
I got a little bit of resources, but it wasn't dealt by the devil.
You might have all the army in the world, none of them will help you settle.
Every weapon & scheme will fall back on the spearheader.
So regardless of the insurmountable odds, I fear lesser.
Before this day that I write, I intended on being a good man.
Unbeknownst to me, my steps are ordered & beyond me there's a good plan.
I've fallen short countless, but the Lord won't cast me off.
He'll catch me & won't hand me off.
In troubles, I ask to keep me strong.
If my weaknesses are on your mind, I have no doubt, you will allow me to last long.

'Labels Are More Dangerous'
© Raul Cortes Jr. 4-22-2021

Labels are more dangerous than the actual condition that medics attempt to ascribe.
Some people live with a higher sensory perception than most & as a result, there are instances where they learn faster, process information faster, process emotion faster, identify patterns faster (then visualize the future with pinpoint accuracy).

Alot of these inherent gifts & talents can be the Side Effect Of Severe Trauma.
So what happens when a broken down family structure isn't enough to make our tramatized boys & girls around the world, continue living under generational curses?
What happens when medics can't create a strong enough narcotic to desensitize our natural, biological upgrades, born out of trauma?

What happens when the Quadrillionaire Techie can't create an addictive-enough game or a strong enough weapon to distract & reprogram our intentions & ideas?

What happens when the countless haters, stalkers from the police department, down to the entire criminal justice system is no longer strong enough to create a false narrative to incriminate & institutionalized us?!

What's next? Can there even be a next? No way. Maybe in a science fiction movie could something be worse.
Until we begin to realize that "america's greatest theatrical prop" in literature was trying to show us something.

"For we.. (((W R E S T L E))).not against flesh & blood, but against , against , against The of the darkness of this world, against Spiritual in High Places."
Ephesians 6:12 KJV

The next thing is witchcraft. Voodoo. Sorcery. Casting spells & other forms of evil hypnosis...near & far. Contractual deals with devils. Human sacrifices. And more. You never believe in these occurrences unless you were a victim.

And if Jesus was the solution then, he most certainly is the solution now.

'The DNA Of My Mind'
© Raul Cortes Jr. 4-21-2021

Every day is a fight of the brand new.
Keys? check. Bus Fare? check. And all other necessary belongings too.
Did I get enough sleep, or did I ruminate throughout the night?
Will I be energized for work, or will my eyes suffer plight?
The people I come across, will they all have me in their best interest?
Do they have the willingness to understand me, that I'm not a mess, just complex?
Will I have the right the thing to say? Can I turn an entire day into a teachable moment?
Can my life be at peace & simplified to the point I can avoid an unspeakable omen?
Can I be self-sufficient in every task I set to accomplish?
And will I be able to ask the right person for help when a situation arises?
Can I focus on the task at hand, without the need of compliments & intervention?
How low of a maintenance am I, & can I lower any liabilities that I might be presenting?
These are just a few thoughts, lingering in my mind.
Like a splinter in my brain, will I get a breakthrough from the divine?
Can I realize what belongs to me, & avoid the belongings of others?
As I secure myself, like a bag full of cash, so I can attract another.

04/14/2021

Pretty soon I'll be deleting this FB, ditching this phone & all my google accounts.

My job is secure & before the summer's out, I'll have a new place to live.

Some people got nothing better to do than to pick & bullly others instead focusing on themselves.

I used to be annoyed until I realized how important my oposition makes me feel, even if the attention that they give is deranged.
