Clicking Heels...Beauty In All Colors.....

Me lately

So lately I’ve been coming across a lot of rant about discrimination because of the color of your skin some things I read hear and see says I get hate because I’m too light skinned the others on the complete opposite end of the spectrum say they get hate because they are to dark.  So I’ll say this what about us  Black Americans or for those that prefer it African Americans who are right smack in the middle like myself—I say to those on the other color spectrum suck it up get over it and don’t poison our new generations minds with the hate that not just other races may have but the obvious racism that our very own have toward each other.  We the middle medium of brown /red/yellow skin tones catch hate from both sides, but you never hear us complaining.

My Beautiful yellow best friend-she thinks shes brown

 We are all beautiful –black is beautiful –just as every color is. Have you ever seen a rainbow it is one of God’s most magnificent creations of nature as are we all.

Middle Ground Caramel/brown/yellow/red...

 We are like a great collection of shoes.  We all are of different colors mixes heights widths and styles but at the end of the day the collection is still fierce especially as a group/people.  The collection is only as strong as its weakest link <-- as clichés  as that is, but its true as a people we need to get past skin color because we have bigger issues as a people and as a nation—national dept anyone.

 We need to uplift each other and stop being like crabs in a bucket.  Our world has progressed to much to let that slave mentality continue to rule who we are as a people.  Don’t mistake we must not forget the past or we are bound to repeat it but we must use it to make ourselves strong before it’s too late.

 Food for thought

History is written, but it’s up to “US” to write a new chapter and to not keep repeating the  1^st and 2^nd chapters over and over there is no new history unless we change it….it’s like knowing your favorite pair of heels are worn out and it being time to replace them it only make your wardrobe that much better. Besides the initial draw  may be outward beauty, but in the end its your personality, character and drive is what keeps you not your looks.....THAT FADES!

And that's My Word..!!

Secret Pleasures...Is it superficial or not?

I know this is kind of touchy,but it's what I'm thinking and so totally relevant to my journey....

Virginal yet seductive -photo: c.russell

Enhance by makeup not covered what they think we hear

Be Seen and not heard

Butt lift...I so am not this endowed

Makeup as a mask

As little girls we are taught in so many ways that are not necessarily spoken, but subliminally to be seen and not heard, be sexy yet virginal and my favorite you are only as strong as your most commanding silent yet demanding sweet , innocent and seductive glance <<< I've mastered this f.y.i.>>>>
As a result we emerge our self in paint to make ourselves beautiful ,because you see most are not taught the paint is only suppose to enhance the natural beauty not cover it up, we overspend even if we can't afford the clothes, makeup , accessories<<>>>>> my secret pleasure. Let's not forget botox, face lifts, lip implants, breast implants, butt lifts, liposuction and the list goes on. As a result all of this is thrown at us in piles upon piles in popular culture. These things are thrown to us so much that they are not longer viewed as luxuries, but as necessities. Then "WE" are viewed as superficial by the same people that feed the indulgences to us.  All we have to do is ask for and I bet you a million + there is someone that can make our dream(s) come true.

What we end up over sexed and accessorized...unless stated otherwise all professional pix in this post were taken by Anomaly13

Now the question remains is it as superficial as some people would have us all believe? Or is it just part of our evolved culture that is what we now deem as acceptable to everyone, but those of us that are stuck in the ice age. Those that have not figured out how to teach our younger generation how to interpret these messages and to take them as what they are worth as the saying goes, "it is what it is".  I mean think about it like this as bad off as our economy is now, if there where not those people that indulged in these so call necessities how much worse would things really be?  I say to each his/her own.  Do what you are suppose to in teaching don't leave everything up to the educators-they don't get paid enough for that- and the rest will follow.


Do I think my world in a personal aspect is superficial not really...it's part of life things have changed a lot in the last 100 years...would I feel the same if I had a little girl probably so...like I said, teach and the rest will follow... your thoughts?
