There is something wonderful and freeing about abandoning one's self to the four winds not caring what others think. Well, it is. I have many times. It is akin to leaving your body and learning to fly, or releasing toxic relationships and chancing upon the person you will, can and need to live with the rest of your life with. Living in this body is about freedom in case you forgot that agreeable reason you came to this earth plane. There were other things, but the reason you came was meshed into the fabric of purpose, claim and the golden moment of being free in a temporal body! Jesus did it. It was appealing before you were born. - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 11.19.13

KNOW THE RULES, SET YOUR RULES

"I want to remind people of a different kind of glamour, a different look, and breaking the rules of fashion. I wanna break the rules." ~  Dita Von Teese

Dorothy Dandridge

Dorothy Dandridge knew the rules, knew the limited expectations of whites of her and her kind, but set her own and followed them. For thinking Black people we know we don't have the luxury of a first impression so we learn to act, and we eventually learn how to prepare for the second impression. It is an important survival skill, and when any of us attain high achievements a thinking Black man or woman's ears are listening for the stories of how: how they did it, and how the ancestors were called in to play. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 11.18.13
