Eleanor Roosevelt said it best. You should never let anyone bring you down mentally or emotionally. In the past couple of weeks I have really taken this statement to heart and applied it to my own self. People will try their hardest to bring you down with them. But you have the power to let them do this or not. Choose for yourself that you will never let anyone do this to you.

You see, people who try to bring others down or make others feel bad are really unhappy with themselves. So in order to make their miserable existence more tolerable, they have to make others miserable. These kinds of people come in all races, religions, classes, genders, and ages. They prey on the weak and helpless. These people are haters. They don’t hate you, they hate what you have. They hate to see you doing good. Their engulfed by jealousy and hatred for you and others like you. So the only way for them to feel good is to hurt you. They live and thrive off of your suffering. Suffering that they love to inflict.

You have to make sure you are strong in mind, soul, and body in order to resist the venom these people spew. Never let these people succeed in bringing you down to their miserable state. So many of us don’t realize that we have so much going for us, that we let these people come into our lives and bring us down. They can be family, friends, coworkers, or strangers. Their abuse can last for years or seconds. You have to be strong and know who you are, so you can avoid their vicious lies. Don’t doubt yourself. As long as you continue to do good the Creator will protect and provide for you.

This is just some knowledge I wanted to share with you all. Please take Mrs. Roosevelt’s statement to heart and learn from it and live by it.

I know this post is so late. But I just wanted to tell you the African American literature I plan on reading this month. I went to the library, trying to figure out what books I should read.I  searched on the library’s search engine for books about African American women but that came to no avail. I ended up stumbling across a Black lit display the library had put out for black history month. I choose four books:

1. “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When The Rainbow is Enuf” by Ntozake Shange

2. “Beloved” by Toni Morrison

3. “The Women Of Brewster Place” by Gloria Naylor

4. “The Souls Of Black Folks” by W.E.B Du Bois

I just started reading For Colored Girls… and I must say it is an interesting piece of work. I am not that good at reading poetry but this book is a joy to read. The librarian who checked out my books said she had read it and believed the poems came to life when you read them out loud. So that’s what I’ve been doing and I must say I think the librarian was right.

I really wanted to get books that focused on black women so that’s why the books I got are about and black women, with the exception of ” The Souls Of Black Folks”. I wanted to get the Frederick Douglass Narrative but I decided to get that the next time I go to the library.

I intend on writing a review of the books, so keep an eye out for that.

Well write to ya later.

If you live on the east coast, then you are probably preparing for the second snow storm that’s about to hit. The above picture was inspired by this snow storm. I created that set on a website called Looklet. It let’s you put real clothes on models to create an outfit. You even get to chose the background picture. Most of the sets on my page are modest clothing that a Muslimah could wear. Even though my models aren’t wearing a hijab scarf, a hijab can easily be incorporated into any of my looks. The reason they don’t have hijab on is because their really isn’t a good selection of scarves on Looklet that can be worn on the head.

But aside from that, I have to say I love this website. I can be creative and really get a good idea of my fashion sense and be able to grow on that. If you want to try it out, go ahead, registration is free. Once again I have to give a shout out to Ange over at Hegab Rehab, for providing my formal introduction to Looklet.

I’ll occasionally post some of my designs on here, like I do with my Polyvore sets.
