Are you Proud?

Of your heritage? Where you came from? I AM!!!

I am PROUD to be a little mixed baby :) I am proud to have been raised by the black side of my family and I am proud to have been poor.

I am proud that I had to struggle and learn to make my own way in life
I am proud that I was homeless
I am proud that I practically lived through every depressing moment of my life....

I hate when people who may or may not know any better try to belittle some one of a difference race or stereotype people because they are different from you.

Yes it is frustrating to hear people say things like "I don't go to the ghetto" or "That's hood" or "All black people are great athletes" etc....

You have never been to the ghetto so how do you know what "ghetto" is? And why is it scary? My car has never been stolen, I've never been beat up, I don't do drugs or whatever else people think happens in the hood....

Bad things can happen anywhere so why stereotype one particular area?

I enjoy where I am came from, I LOVE being half black, I am proud that I get to celebrate more then one culture, and I happy to be able to enjoy what God has blessed me with so why don't you?

Be proud and don't apologize for where you came from....

Ever Feel Like...

....A let down? No matter what I do, with certain I always feel like a let down. Like I let them down in some kind of way or another.... I can be too much of a people pleaser at times, and sometimes that does more harm then good I usually end up exhausted or hurt trying to make others happy just to feel like a let down all over again... I need to find a way to shake this feeling, it has me in my feelings sometimes and even second guessing myself even when I know that I am right or when I know that I have done no wrong.... How do I move on from this point? How do I toughen up and stand my ground? How do I adjust my personality to be something that my heart is not use to doing? I am not sure yet BUT what I do know is that I have got to do something because I am over this feeling that I have at times... *Shrugs and creates emotional walls*

Opposite Sex Best Friends

Ok so I am going to give my opinion on whether or not men and women can JUST be friends....Here goes nothing It is POSSIBLE, however some of the best and most successful relationships blossom from friendships. When you hang around someone constantly and talk to them constantly you begin to grow feelings for that person.... And that's okay. But in most cases sexual tension between you all will arise... I have a male best friend but the way we got to that point was a LONG road lol we actually started out backwards we tried dated and then realized that we are better as friends.....Now that we got the tension out of the way now we can truly just be friends and now we can talk about everything Alot of the male-female friendships I know there is sexual tension unless one of the parties is homosexual.... Now don't take what I am saying the wrong way. I am in NO way saying that men and women can not be friends with out being intimate. People can control themselves and although the te

One of my favorite rappers is Mr. Loso himself... I have told yall time and time again I listen to music for substance not for the new trend or a banging beat... A banging beat is just a plus when the rhymes are creative, well put together, and full of metaphors.... If you haven't heard anything from Loso you need too his versus are dope.... Now typically I would provide you with some examples but this time I want you to go listen on your own....
