Less Thirst more Sincerity and Logic!

Image
Thirsty: the most over used word in popular culture! He calls you beautiful, he's thirsty. He says he wants to make you his wife, he's still thirsty. He says he wants to sleep with you after he clearly sees your half naked pictures? I mean at that point please call him thirsty and call yourself a thirst trap in the process. You can't be a thirst trap then complain about how you can't find a good guy after. Don't get me wrong there still are thirsty guys out there and we should all try to help them when we can, like give them a gallon of water to quench that thirst maybe? There's also some nice guys out there that get thrown in the "thirsty" category simply because girls these days can not tell the difference between a good guy and a thirsty guy. You can't go around calling every single guy thirsty then complain about not finding the right one how the hell are you going to find him when you won't even given one a chance! If...

Let's practice Radical Self Love!

"Light skin is the right skin." I mean if Consequence said it then by gods we should all be light skinned. I don't think anyone wants to have the wrong shade of black,  although who ever said light skin was the right skin, other than rappers and the media of course. Bleaching, whitening, lightening. Whatever you want to call it, it's all the same. During my childhood, I played with white Barbie dolls. We were all exposed to the Euro centric standards of beauty from a young age. I never liked my hair curly or braided, I wanted my hair straightened all the time if I could. Now that I'm older I love my natural fro but I remember always wanting to perm my hair, keep in mind my hair is naturally soft so I probably looked like a wet cat with that perm on, never the less I still wanted it because that's what all the blonde's with straight hair and blue eyes on TV looked like. Despite all this I don't remember EVER hating my skin colour. My skin tone is and al...

You ain't about that life!

Image
If you ain't about that life then don't sign up for it! You want to be in a relationship and act like you're single? It doesn't work like that! Stop playing with people's feelings. I think people don't realize that breaking someone's heart is way deeper than any of us can ever imagine. You break that person's heart, they end up beating themselves up for what? Being loyal to you when you're the one that couldn't deliver? You mess with their feelings making that heart feel like those feelings are real. You promise someone the world then leave them with nothing? You can't say you're "different" when you're not. What if the heart actually believes you? Don't promise anyone anything if you can't deliver because broken promises lead to disappointments. You destroy their out look on love, ever wonder where trust issues come from? Being played and being made a fool off. Like I said if you ain't about that life then plea...

YOU MAD?

" What you think about me is irrelevant. Look deeper, harder, go on...What do you see? Your reflection of yourself when you look in the mirror?"- Samuel Soto. So I am one of those people that are fiercely loyal, you come after a friend or someone I really care about I cannot let it go. I have no respect for people that gossip, spread lies or talk smack about someone they don't even know. It's not about haters hating or "bitches" being well bitches (excuse my French), I honestly think it has something to do with ones self-esteem. You spend half your time gossiping, talking down on someone what's it going to do for you? How about you spend that time trying to solve world hunger or doing something productive with your life? I mean I know everyone is human but that's no excuse. Make sure you're perfect/sin free before you start trying to find all the flaws in someone else and show them off to the world. "Mind over matter, I don't mind an...

Bad boys ain't no good.

Image
No truer words have ever been said. I mean there's just something about a bad boy that gets us going. Women are so messed up in the head, well I guess not all women because there's some that go for the good guys, the soft ones, the loyal ones, the ones you know will always be there. Sounds like a dog if you ask me, no offence though. Back to my point sometimes we really know how wrong they are for us, bad is written all over them but it's just too late to leave because we'll already be in too deep. I think we should sue our parents and those kindergarten teachers that used to tell us that when a boy is teasing you or treating you bad it means they like you because fifteen or twenty years later we still have that mentality and it's so wrong but yet it feels so good. A relationship with a bad boy is addictive, it's got an edge to it you know? Those roller coaster rides are too good, when it's high we'll try to hold on to that high for as long as we can bu...

You are too powerful to be suppressed!

Let's take a moment to talk about domestic violence and how black women are the top of the list. Domestic violence is more than a black eye, I want to know how and when it will end. Sometime women take it lightly or just brush it off because he loves you and says "sorry baby, I'll never touch you like that again" but that apology comes with a fist. It's not love period. I don't care how old you are, how long you have been dating/married or if you're too scared to lose him. If he already put his hands on you then you've lost him already. Don't stick around just to be put six feet under. Now I know it might seem as though I'm mainly talking to black women but it's only because we are the number one targets of domestic violence. I know this happens to all of us black or white. This is an issue that goes on each and every single day of our lives! I read somewhere that "the 'strong black woman' stereotype makes it impossible fo...

P.U.S.H (Pray Until Something Happens)

Image
Sometimes life happens, things go wrong and you just feel like you're suffocating, you don't know where to go or who to turn to. You think if you go to your friends they'll judge you and you don't want to get on your knees and talk to the big guy up there because you don't know if he'll keep forgiving you, stupid as it may sound. Everything happens for a reason I always say but what if we have the power to stop some of the things that happen, what if we have the power to stop ourselves from having that kind of regret. Everything does happen for a reason and God does not give us obstacles we cannot handle. Regret is a wasted emotion, you can't take back your mistake so might as well make the best of it. I think we should all look on the bright side, there is always a light at the end of every dark tunnel. Praying helps and if it's not okay then it's not the end! God will never abandon you in your hour of need, when that little voice in your hea...
