Over the weekend one of my closest friends told be about a co-worker of hers that blogs. Then she mentioned that it would be a good idea for me to start one of my own. Of course I got right on it. In this blog you will not find celebrity news but life advice and Totally Tania’s take on just about everything.
Today is the first day of fall and I want all you reading this post to fall in love with yourself this season. Most of you reading this have to take care of the kids, the house, the bills, the client, the customer but who takes care of you? By the end of this wonderful season you should have an answer to this question. Fall in love with you this Fall.
Things to check out immediately:
The Blue Print 3 by none other then my favorite rapper Jay-Z. You can’t hate on my boy with tracks like “On to the Next One” and “Off That.” He did if for me on this one it is not a classic but he is still in the fight. Where you at Lil Wayne, Gucci, Drake? Jay-Z is doing it for the grown folks.
The new Madea flick is actually not a Madea flick. She is in it but dominating the screen. This film belongs to Taraji P. Henson she did her thang and my girl Mary is just plain old Mary. Check it out and let me know what you think. This leads me to my question of the day. Do you think Tyler Perry parading around in a wig and dress is messing up our young black men? Well, the men in the barber shop think so; Speak on it your opinion is wanted.
Lastly, did you see MY PRESIDENT on Lettermen last night? It was a classic moment; he is the first sitting President to do last night. The man is breaking the mode everywhere. The quote of the night was him making the comment “I was black before I became President.” Do you think people of color are limited to which title they can hold? Look at your teachers, police, and firefighters. I just recently starting seeing firefighters of color how about you?

It is not that hard to post people.
ReplyDeleteThe First day of Fall was awesome! It sure made me think about how much better I should take care of myself, and just how special I really am period. I'm sure there are so many others who are thinking, or have been thinking some of these same things, but felt it wasn't important. Well this is a LOUD wake-up call for not just for Blacks and Whites, but for the entire HUMAN RACE!!!! Love yourself first, and then it will be so much easier to Love others, and help diminsh some of the hate in the world.
ReplyDeleteNow about Mr Tyler Perry. His character is one that with many of us we can identify. Your Granny, Ainte, or even your Big Momma. I don't believe he is messing up our young black men, because you know what? They identify with Madea in a way that has nothing to do with sexual identity. Many of us have seen "Mrs Doubtfire", and so many other characters. Many times those characters helped us put life into perspective, and re-evaluate ourselves. Madea might help better our young men before she destroys them.
Titles and color have nothing to do with each other. Black, African American, and Negro are synonymous with each other. We hold the highest, most prestigious title there is. So NO! No people of color whether they are yellow, red, black or brown are limited to which title they can hold. Our President was on point as usual so HATERS just get use to it!!!
By the way I have a cousin(African American), who is a retired firefighter in Chicago. He was one of the city's finest for 30 years! So my young Black men and women, you can do it too!!
