Relation-ships


"Relationship" is a word that can be loosely defined.   For example, there are "friend" relationships that are strictly platonic, "casual" relationships that usually means "hooking up" at the convenience of one or both of the people involved, and the "committed" relationship, meaning two people agree they only want to be with each other. The latter requires more work than the others because the happiness of both people is what makes the relationship work.

"Committed" relationship seekers want to find that special person to confide in, share special moments, and hold them when the world feels like it is caving in.  Having that person you know will always have your back and do their best to put and keep a smile on your face is an unexplainable positive feeling.
         
Finding a committed compatible mate can be difficult for some, especially those who set unrealistic expectations, so they end up settling for a different type of relationship.  Many fail to realize accepting a mate means compromise for both lifestyles and an open mind to difference of  opinions.  A committed relationship cannot be built off of one aspect of a person’s life, but on every facet of that person.  
              
Regardless, of what type of relationship a person has, it's important to be honest, not only with the partner, but oneself as well.  Honesty ensures both parties know what "relationship" they are in.

Dove Missed the Mark with Recent Facebook Ad

A recent Facebook ad ran by the Unilever brand, Dove, completely missed the mark. The ad displays a black woman transforming into a white woman after using their product. Dove issued an apology after makeup artist Naomi Blake reached out to the company to voice her concerns. The question is, would Dove have issued an apology or even pulled the ad if Blake didn't question their messaging? Well this isn't the first time the brand has been accused of releasing racist ads. Back in 2011, Dove ran an ad that displayed 3 women from lightest to darkest with the words "before" and "after." Indicating that the black woman had dry, undesirable skin and once you used the lotion, then your skin would be like the white woman. Again I ask, what is their message? Are they still using the same advertising agency? I guess they will be amongst the other companies hiring a new VP of Multicultural Marketing!

Tribute to Maya Angelou, The Phenomenal Woman

Today we said goodbye to one of the greatest orators of all time! Dr. Maya Angelou has served as an inspiration to millions through her words, actions, and commitment to civil rights. She was a living legend and her influence on our culture is priceless. Most noted for her poems, "Phenomenal Woman" and "Still I Rise," she instilled a sense of pride in women everywhere. In addition to these noted works, Maya Angelou has set the standard by being: - San Francisco's 1st African American female cable car conductor - 1st African American Woman to have her screenplay turned to film, Georgia I remember the first time I was introduced to Dr. Angelou's story in 4th grade. I'm not sure if I was suppose to be reading it, but my older sister had "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings" laying around. All I could say was WOW! How could a girl just a few years older than me go through so much. From that point, I began to appreciate life and all that God ha...
