March will be filled with happiness.
March will be filled with positivity.
March will be filled with progress.
March will be filled with opportunity.
March will be filled with kindness.
March will be filled with love.
if youโre at a low point in life right now, consider THIS:
new people are coming your way with love
a huge success may be waiting around the corner
the possibilities are endless
you can always change your habits
ALL Women, especially BLACK WOMEN should be high maintenance. Period. Imagine lowering your standards for men that probably barely knows how to wash their ass correctly! I hate to see it!
You are blooming. Please give yourself time.
All my worth is found in His blood, in being forgiven and filled fully and overflowing with Him, so in Him I have everything I need and no longer will live at peopleโs expense to fill my cup. Itโs not empty; itโs overflowing. He is the well that never runs dry. So that way my motive is pure and God will always support me with this understanding and will support my prayers as well - because my prayers will never come from a self-centered, broken place - theyโll always flow from compassion and love for Him and others.
If you have trouble in your life, you are in a valley. If you are in a valley, you are being prepared for something bigger, better, greater.

Till this day Iโm still upset I never got to do ballet when I was younger- I find it so sweet that my family members even remembered how much I wanted to be a ballerina andย โgo to ballet schoolโ even the ones I hadnโt seen in over 10 years remembered. Idk maybe God was saving me from damaging my body somehow lol put I still watch YouTube videos of ballet recitals and I feel a little crushed but I mean 17 shouldnโt be too late to start right? But thatโs if I find any time...ย
Don't doubt God's love for you just because you can't see yourself the way he sees you yet.
Godโsย โnoโ is not rejection, it is redirection. His plans are always good, and that will never change. Thank you Jesus for always having my best interest in mind!
I think youโre making points & I definitely understand what you mean. Weโve turned into a very hyper-sexual culture and in some cases it is having a terrible influence. Iโm not policing you, like you said, it is your blog . But I think the people who are mad just have an issue with it seeming like women canโt be multi-faceted, or change, or have control over being sexual. I do think thereโs a time & place and definitely get being tired of it, but if the woman is in control of it, why have issue?
This is an actual respectful disagreement where a conversation can be had. I think you're confusing what being a multifaceted person is. Yes, a woman (or any person) can have different sides and personalities to themselves, I have made posts here addressing how important it is to develop yourself in different areas, that's not what Saweetie or any other rapper out here is doing, actually.
My initial critique was based on the poorly executed attempt at rachetness and morally corrupt behavior that we have been seeing the music industry try to shove down young people's throat, Saweetie is a great example. She isn't exhibiting being a person of multiple qualities, she has been *transformed* into a very specific image to make her blend with the rest of the female rappers currently in the scene (City Girls, Megan, Doja Cat, Kash Doll, etc.). What she's portraying is not sex appeal, sex appeal is subtle, tasteful, has an aura of mystery. Sexual degeneracy is vulgar, in your face, tacky and repugnant, that's what she is displaying. Being critical of a behaviour that young girls will observe and then proceed to replicate (especially with the viral social media challenges she came up with) will only harm these same girls mentally and will make them develop a skewed view of their sexuality, self perception as women and force them to comply to an image that has been crafted by an industry that's based on using sex, drugs and violence to make profit.
Ask yourself, would you feel comfort if your 8 year old daughter or sister spent her time watching a music video of a grown woman in tank top shaking her spine on top of a basketball backboard with lyrics saying "8 inch, big d*ck that's good pipe"? And before some starts saying that it's not the artist's responsibility to overview what people's kid see online, that point is irrelevant because Saweetie, like most female rapper, caters her music to young girls and spreads it through social media to target a very specific audience, they know exactly what they are doing.
Saweetie is not multifaceted, to the contrary she has developed one specific try hard brand of a Megan Thee Stallion knock off. If you or any of these third wave "feminists" find that empowering then you believe that, but that won't stop other people from being critical of what's being promoted to us. And I focus on female rappers because I'm a woman, but male rappers are just as bad, and unfortunately we as a society have become numb to the promotion of guns, drugs and easy sex/degradation of women in their music. We need to do better, we have to.
