INCORRUPTIBLE BEAUTY!!!!!!!!!!

I attempt to retain some sort of authenticity within myself by keeping parts of me natural and pure although small, they still remind me of who I am in truth because when the make-up and weaves are stripped down I'm nothing but a simple girl in pursuit of acceptance, belonging and admiration. And in manier times acceptance, belonging and admiration are easily attained when one is beautiful.

It always humbles me whenever I see an untainted, incorruptible, virtuous version of me, the effortlessness of it all is so “whole”-some and beautiful. It pleases me to still have the ability to recognize myself in my dull plainness and still find my imperfections so perfectly appealing.

Despite what many of you may think, I’m more than my elaborate hairstyles, my wearing of gold jewelry and my fine apparel. My heart and gentle spirit are hidden only to those who choose not to see with their hearts but their eyes.

I do not live on beauty; beauty does not sustain me because it is evanescent!

Don’t get me wrong, I love being beautiful but I realize that whenever I’m “made-up” I risk being viewed as a superficial materialistic imprudent young woman with no substance. (Assumptions are very cruel and unkind).

Pretty hurts and beauty is never enough.

My feelings on this may somehow dispel many of my realities and paint me out to be a hypocrite but then again I’m a spiritual being living in a complicated physical reality and our realities are not always what they seem to be.

We are not meant to be perfect, we are meant to be whole.

I am in truth whole and enough.

8 FAMOUS GAY DESIGNERS - Rising awareness against gay violence!!!!!!!!!

It amazes me when there are still individuals who discriminate against gay people, I don't know if its ignorance or just plain stupidity because the same people who you disciminate and pass judgement on are the same people who ultimately make decisions on the clothes that you wear......interesting take right?! so before you decide to be a stereotyped douche bag let the clothes that you wear be a constant reminder that gay people are also people if not special people. so ít's high time we celebrate their wonderful contributions not only in fashion, but in the development of modern art and individuality as a whole. They embody a passion for their work like no other the kind of passion that drives the majority of their career and reputation. This is my gay love of talented designers who brought great influence in the fashion industry. Marc Jacobs is not only the famous designer in the world but also the the creative director of Louis Vuitton since 1997. Jacobs is al

BOOK REVIEW: I Can't Believe It's Not A Dream - Dr. Ronnie Masilela

After reading I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S NOT A DREAM I was reminded of two powerful quotes by Robin Sharma. · “My love for books is what saved me.” · “It’s not what you will get out of the books that is so enriching – it is what the books will get out of you that will ultimately change your life”. For me this book is a detailed version of what Robin Sharma was talking about in those two quotes. The writing is amazing, it's unpretentious, lucid and poignant, I really enjoyed it and the story-line is astounding and relatable. The Robertson’s, the other families that took him in, his friends and every single person who helped him, I sincerely believe that was God extending a helping hand to him. Never have I been so touched by a book to a point of tears, I am not sure if it’s because I know the author personally hence I was able to relate and empathize with him in such a vulnerable and humane manner or if it was pure
