This is my poetic side enjoy....

At the point of no return
Just like that pit in one's stomach
Every life's lesson learn
We should cherish every moment
To MISS interpret a glance as a stare everyone's fears
But Who Cares
cause your the only one looking
Playing truth or dare does he/she loves me or loves me not
As the petals fall at your feet
One of the most common humane mistakes is capitalized with defeat
So he looks at her with lustful eyes
and tells her that she's sweet
A sealed kiss with disappointment but yet she has to remain mild and meek?
To each is one's own
Now someone to bone
Did they learn or has it grown?
He wants her to be the one
But
Can only look at her like the number two
And only chill will until 2am
Or
Until the hotel phone ring telling them they're threw
While she wants to stand on her own
Or maybe between the blocks of the middle and pinky on the left hand side
She will only Jump Off
But not over brooms
She damn sure will never be a bride
So little black girl sitting in a Cadillac
A pimp daddy that's all he is to you
Growing and Maturity will one day Hun catch you by the hand
Never again can the world define you
Or
Just to be a body on an arm of a man

www.ThriveLounge.com has only been in existence for a few months but since it's launch in late January 09 its membership has been growing rapidly. Thrive Lounge is a social site mainly for entrepreneurs and how to become social savvy with using the process called networking. Just like any other social site you can create your page to your own liking. Don't be fooled this isn't your average site. Though as its still up and coming Thrive Lounge stands on its own. Thrive Lounge is a more intimate social site where its less chaotic and topics are appropriately placed on the main page. Membership pages are easily to be found and every member plays an important role. One of the best features about this site is the support. Thrive Lounge has weekly topics such as Business of the week, Weekly History Tribute and tons of blogs and discussions posted by members. Thrive Lounge isn't discriminatory but here you would find mostly a cultured atmosphere. Out of curiosity I've asked the creator of this wonderful site "why did you choose the name Thrive Lounge?" he replied "Thrive means to gain in wealth or possessions and Lounge means to to rest or recline indolently." He felt the name was the perfect title to what he envisioned. So, if you have talents and skills but just don't know where to start or where to go for networking; due to being shy or your social skills are not where they need to be. Then join www.ThriveLounge.com. To synopsized, Thrive Lounge its a Business and Pleasure site. This is the only site where you can mix business with pleasure.

It's a known saying that honesty is the best policy. So I make it my priority to be honest in every way possible. What is the embodiment of perfection? Is it to have the best look ,make the most money, or to be such a wonderful intellectual being? You see I'm asking because I don't know. Yesterday I went to Shecky's in Manhattan  networking and having a good time with my co-workers when I came to this Vendor Lishkara. They had beautiful Indian handmade collections. I was browsing and found beautiful pieces when the representative for the vendor approached me and asked" Do you know your measurements?" You might think this was a harmless question but this question had brought up some bad memories. When I was younger (pre-teen  and teenage years) I had a battle with my weight. I didn't like my curves. All of my friends were pencil thin, tall, long legs and then their was me short with big behind and big chest. I received attention from guys but that made me feel uncomfortable. This has brought severe self esteem issues. I didn't have the home support that was needed for me to overcome these feelings. So i began to join track, teach dance, work out but yet my curves wouldn't go away. It actually defined them. Gotten me more attention(also into big trouble.. that's another blog). I just couldn't get it right. Someone had asked me if I was born again what body form and features would I like to have? I told them preferably 5'5 (that's the average height of a female), slim (36-24-36, ) light skin, long locks that flows past my waist, some type of exotic eye color. If I had the chance to change me now I wouldn't for anything. Back then, I wasn't educated in the beauty of me. There is not a perfect person in this world. God made us all different because that's the beauty of being unique. It took me years to get over the pain and the hurt of wanting to be someone else. A lot of youth go through this everyday. Whats even worse some hasn't yet gotten over it and they are now adults feeding their children this self hate. The media also play a part in body image and whats perfect and whats not. As adults if we have children or not it is our job to be role models for our youth. It takes a village to raise a child and if we all pitch in we would have less runaway teens, and suicide. I'm glad that I had enough strength and courage to overcome the things I seen and been through in my life. Even though we would never be stamped with perfection. We all are unique. So I let the lady take my measurements out of mere curiosity and It was 38 1/2- 30-43 I'm proud to be who I am. God designed me this way because he appreciates my natural sun kissed skin my 5'0 frame, chinky eyes and high cheek bones. My flaws are flawless and God didnt make any mistake when he created me. So What Is The Embodiment Of Perfection? We are because we are made from the image of God

Im just venting. I think what had motivated this is that I just got my new glasses and I never really knew how blind I was until I put them on. Now I can see clearer. I feel like venting. Poetry is more than rhyming words its what you're feeling at that time; just like letting your soul bleed on paper. Now this beautiful world that God has blessed us with is turned upside down flipped backwards twice. The reason for me saying that is because we really dont know that we are blessed. I've never lived in any other part of this world but America aka Ungrateful. It gets me sick sometimes when we wont take the time to help someone in need or when I see homeless people or hungry children and people just dont give a damn. Since this economic brain disease has begun this world has gone mad. Fathers are killing their families because they dont want to face struggle you have stay at home moms selling more than items in a yard sale. The news ratings are getting higher when we are going under and then everybody is getting mad at Barack. We did this to ourselves putting trust in everything else and worshipping idols instead of worshipping our creator. We have invest our money in banks and investors such as Money Hungry Banks Trust me AssHole Lenders in other words we should've been paying our 10% instead of trusting and investing in the Madoffs of the world. Place it all in God. Me too I also have to look at my reflection and question myself. I have guilty pleasures that I spend my time and money on but the funny thing is I have yet to know what they are. I have budgeting issues I cant budget for Sh%t. I get angry with the world and what has been thrown at me and sometimes want to give up, but I cant throw out the towel. No matter how much lint I have in my pocket I have too much to lose. This didnt happen over night and it's not going to end overnight either. The world has always been this way we just finally gotten a new prescription and our vision adjusted... Negativity is Contagious Get Some Medication. My Positivity Keeps Me above the Clouds but my head stays a little bit under to remain focus. I dont live in a fantasy world but I create my own reality.

The New York Post has apologized but that was after two days of loss of sales. So do you think that they were really sorry? Racism is still here no matter if we do now have an African American first family. Pictures have so much meaning and in the eye of the beholder you hold your own interpretation. How I interpret this cartoon is just as that a cartoon. Created from the ignorance of some idiots mind that made that article some great sales. It is racist no matter how you cut it and tie a bow around it. For so long our people have been called primates and every since that monkey was killed this gave them a window of opportunity to say what they really wanted to say. But thats okay because it was such a shame how many white people was at the inauguration sitting under the Head Monkey In Charge. Trying to get a whiff of his swagger. The majority of the African Americans were not even close enough to see but we always have made it through the struggle because we were built for this. This was my feelings about this little innocent cartoon, what about yours? How does this affect you?

...and it will get even harder. Actually "we" (as in middle/low class) citizens have been in this so called "recession" longer than the two years that the media states. Its just the rest of the people that are catching up. In my opinion I think this is a blessing in disguise. Its making everyone aware of how careless the government and these fortune 500 companies were keeping there books. Maybe next time they will hire more qualified people to do their accounting. In this world its a shame of not what you know but who you know mentality and thats why this dreadful place is so screwed up. Im not at all pessimistic im just tired of being blindside of what the government is trying to feed us, and im so full of it. Four years ago people had better hope than what they have now. Change is going to come but not that soon. People are doing shameful things and going to places they thought they would never go all because of the hardships of today. Finding a job is some of what some people worry less about its all about survival. If someone is going through this go to your local City Hall and there is a lot of useful resources. Sorry that we all have been amBUSHed but change is gonna come. There are also some jobsites in your town and all online. A job is a Job money is always gonna be green so do what ya gotta do to get money in this crazy economy..
