Really? Again?

So I'm watching this clip from the Hannity show on the FOX news network. Tell me why people act like their dumb? Here's the clip:

My Analysis
I definitely understand what he's talking about and I'm not going to sit here and lie and say that I feel all lovey-dovey about a black man getting with a white woman. But if that's what you wanna do. do you. Love is love and I cannot judge. I'm not hating on random strangers, especially Tiger Woods who, like may other biracial people of status and acclaim decide not to claim being white. So I'm not mad at dude for marrying a white woman. Let him do what he wants to do. He is not accountable to me nor is he accountable to the black community. He lost the accountability when he decided he was not black enough to be considered black. And even if he was black  to me, I am not Jesus so I can't judge him. When OJ married that white woman and got himself in trouble by killing her ( we all agreed that he killed her right?) it looked worst for him, why? 'Cause he was black and she was white. Don't get it twisted, the black community supported him in his craziness. But He was still wrong and in the public eye, he will always be a villain because he killed that "poor white girl".
As a black woman, I know that we cannot always depend on the media to depict us as beautiful. But for ages, we as black woman were assured within ourselves that black men had not fallen for standard set by the media. They still found us worth the pursuit of courtship, the labor of love that is marriage and a rightful dispenser for their children. I think it is a innate desire of not only black woman but of all woman to be wanted by a man. Recently, more black males are marrying outside of their race than ever before. It is a small percentage of black males and of course, there are more white males marrying outside of their race than black males, but proportionately, black males find life partners outside of their race more readily. The feeling brought about is that we are not good enough for our own men. If it were not compounded by the fact that we are not good enough for society as the ideal mom (single black mothers portrayed in the media), the ideal wife (nagging, opinionated, and loud as portrayed by the media) or the ideal female ( most female icons of beauty and overall femininity are white). Why must white people like Hannity and his friend act like we do not already live in a society that puts black females down? Why is he acting like racism doesn't exist? How can you get past a psychological mindset that has been ingrained over centuries?  Don't act like your dumb. If your white wife wants to feel wanted, don't you think it would make sense that black females would want to feel wanted too?

This Time

#Makeitwonderful So I'm up on this song right now. It's by Melanie Fiona and it talks about how much more the speaker/singer would put into their relationship the next time around. Take a listen or a watch... I think it's a powerful message for those seeking a second, third, fourth, fifth ... chance at life. Right now, I live with a family in which the husband must have done something bad in the past because no matter how much good he does (and he does a lot of good), it will never be enough. This is my issue. The past was hard to live through the first time. Why would I want to pay for it in every second for the rest of my life? This song speaks of putting the past behind and promising the best for the future. Let go of the past. I can't live with the guilt of the past. I can only pour all of me into a occurring present for a brighter future.  ...But I don’t wanna do it over The first time is gone away You can’t rewrite the past All I can do is say This t...

Rebellion

When I was abo ut 17-18 (late teens), I woke up one Sunday morning and I opened my Bible to read. Now, it was during the time when I was very mystical about my Bible reading. Whatever verse I opened the Bible to had a "special" message for me for the day. So I would open and point/look. That morning I opened and my eyes rested on Ezekiel 12:1-3. This is what it says: The word of the LORD also came unto me, saying, Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house. Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, and remove by day in their sight; and thou shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they be   a rebellious house.  I was flabbergasted because I could define my house as being rebellious by the meaning of the verse. But I did not want to take the scr...

Lightbulb Moment

"All you would need is that deal with the devil or that complete surrender to God and you would be set. And yet I find myself dissatisfied with my miserable situation. My mediocrity greets me in the morning and I turnover and hide from the rest of my day. I want to go in. I want to live that Godly life of favor. I know he exists and I know He is faithful who  promised.  But I am never satisfied. I do not know if I live in the middle because I'm trying to keep my options open but I know that there are people going hard for God, giving their all to Him and I am just chilling. I don't want to go all in, because I don't want to be bought, tricked, hoodwinked. But I'm not willing to research what is the truth. I need help, lol. But I do have that nagging fear that while I'm on the sidelines slowly trying to find truth, that some person that's seeking more diligently will come in and snatch my heavenly crown." I remember wirting this on my other blog and t...
