Black Love

I was reading this month issue of Ebony which has an article about BLACK LOVE.  Over the years black men has pushed marriage and love to the back burner.  As well as black women even though we want it we are not straving as hard to get it anymore.  Either due to they are not trusting of men because they have done them wrong.  For men they think that women only want their money.  These is really a shame because love holds family together, it holds friendships together we just have to work at it.  I want to set examples, for the next genration that they can be in a sucessful relationship for 20 and 30 years. I want black childern to see that family can stick together.  Well tis was something that was on my sprint just thought I would share some BLACK LOVE. Happy Valentines Day to All the Couples.

This past week I have had a lot of positive feedback about my natural hair.  I have found two different styles that have really worked out for me.  Bantu knots and flat twist have helped me so much this week.  For anyone going natural and does not want to BC.  I would definitely trust these to work for anyone.  I have also come by a lot of inspiration this week.  I have also thought about the reason a little more of Y I am really doing this.  I love the different ways you can do your hair.  I was watching an old movie called FOXY BROWN she is a whole lot of women too, she rocked an afro and wore her hair straight.  Now you can not do this with wearing a perm.  More people now are doing the braids and twist out as well which just looks so pretty to me.  Having a perm is a lot more convenient, natural hair can be as well you just have to find out what to do.  After watching that movie I looked for other famous people who are taking a stand for natural hair.  They are so beautiful because, they choose to stand tale and show us color women that we are beautiful with our own hair God has given us. 


 











YOU CAN DO IT

Before

After

I am glad that Jennifer Hudson has decided to take a stand for us women of color and show us that if you want to lose weight that YOU CAN DO IT.  I thought that she looked great when she was thicker, however I feel where she is coming from that being small is healthier and clothes seen to fit a lot better.  When I go into the store I always see the cutest jeans in a size 8 or a nice shirt in a small.  My big boobs are not going to fit in a small lol.   Losing weight is so hard to do when you like to eat good food.  Who has time to work out when you are working full time, going to school, and trying to be the best wife and mom you can be.  Hell that is a work out of its own lol.  I want to salute Jennifer for giving me someone to help keep me motivated in this weight lose journey. She is a mom, in the public eye alot if she could do it SO CAN I.
