Rantings of a Creole Princess

I LOVE miss_eddy!

I don't understand people that say they support black shows and they don't even discriminate on the kind of black show. That's like saying I support black music and you listen to songs that negatively describe women or speak of violence and vulgar acts. Why support something because it is black?
You should support the things that uplift and empower you.. Make a conscious effort to be the change you wish to see...oh wait.. I don't want to start lecturing..

I have seen a Tyler Perry play and enjoyed it. However, the T.P. movies that have been in the theater always show women in a down and busted situation.. what's up with that? I am waiting on a movie that depicts black women in a positive light. We don't always have to have either drug issues, abuse issues, domestic violence issues, jail time issues, "no good man" issues, or other hardships that are "stereotypical"... Can't we just be in love without all the extra nonsense?

Quote from the Robinator...

In response to what New Year's resolutions are you making...

Robby:  I don't make resolutions.  I SET GOALS.

Me:  Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  Go head boy go head git down!

Patrick Hughes : This story has made me cry....

...every time I have seen it.  This is sooooooooooooo FABULOUS! According to the Robinator...if you get all the way to the end and you DON'T cry...something is wrong with you.

NOTE!  I'm going to keep this post at the top all day tomorrow...so check for new stuff underneath it as I want EVERYBODY to see this one!

Questions

Do you believe you have the power to make a difference?

Do you believe that making a difference in one person's life will affect many others?

Do you recognize your strengths?  Your weaknesses?

Are you too proud to accept help?

DO YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF?

AND DO YOU CARE?

I know who you are.

You visit this site everyday and you don't comment. 

You're content with just being a spectator.

I'm calling you out. 

Do you care? 

Do you see what I'm trying to do? 

Is my quest in vain? 

Am I stoopit to continue to believe that you're "listening" and thereby "learning" empathy for others?  You want to know what's going on in my world.  Weird girl who writes alot... and believes in the power of being fabulous...

DO YOU CARE?  ANSWER THE QUESTIONS DAMMIT!  DO YOU CARE!  It's killing me.  This. Is.  Really.  Killing.  Me.

I need a favor...I need you to comment.  I need you to answer these questions.  I WANT TO BELIEVE IN YOU. Please.

Me...RUNNING!

Amy and I powerwalked today.  About twenty minutes into our walk we decided to walk a block then run a block.  Walk a block then run a block.  *sigh*  Needless to say my butt burns (because Monnie runs from nothing but danger!) and now my calves are aching.  I hate running!  I'd rather kickbox.  Why did I run then you ask?  Because Amy started running and I consider her a wussy punk chick (she's gonna kill me for saying that) and wasn't about to let her run and my not run and beat her.  Good reason huh?  *sigh*  (I need help.) 

Maybe I should make friends with an Olympic Sprinter and then have a friendly "run" with him.  Wonder if I'd win just on guts, glory and hoohah alone?

I'm a sad, sad, soul.

By the way...tomorrow between 2 and 4 I'm going out in the world and fighting crime.  If you know of any crime being committed...make sure you send me an email or text message.  Text message is prolly best since I'll be out saving the world.

Our Greatest Fear

I love this passage from Nelson Mandela's speech (written by Marianne Williamson)  so much that I feel the need to share it at least once a year.  I know most of you have seen it before...but I truly believe we need to be reminded of it on a regular basis.  My wish today is that those of you who have yet to take it to heart and use it as a catalyst to your greatness...do so today.  Love,  Monnie

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."  Nelson Mandela
