AFRO OF THE MOMENT: BEYONCE

When B does it she does it bigger and better. This isis Queen rocks her halo sun dipped and seductive.

Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there- -Will Rogers

A positive, healthy sense of self-value and -worth is the foundation of our happiness and success. When we know who we are and believe it, our greatest dreams are possible. When we doubt ourselves, question our worth, and undermine our self- value, our greatest victory will be worthless. Affirm "I am my greatest hero." That is really where it all starts. We must believe in who we are and what we do. We must look up to and trust ourselves to make it through the difficulties knowing that we can. Only we can truly appreciate and celebrate our own success. We are equipped and capable of getting to where we want to be. If we have any doubts, we can always hold our own hand.

Say it loud: I now create a positive pattern of self-worth because I believe I AM the best.

Diva In Distress ALERT: Halle Berry The Streets Are Watching....

As most have heard already, Halle Berry is in a heated custody battle over her baby girl with her ex Gabriel Aubry since they split last April.  The current redundant headlines in the media all state that Halle B is hating on Kim Kardashian. REALLY? YAWN... STRETCH.. WHATEVER.. We all also know that LiL ole hot Kim was seen with Aubry at a Lakers game last November which struck me as tacky. I immediately smelled a rat and figured it to be a publicity stunt that could create buzz for both parties.  Kim likes chocolate. PERIOD. Gabriel Aubry is a ex Calvin Klein model that became a household name from lining Ms. Berry womb, he needed a buzz hit quick. However this is all coming back to haunt him. The Oscar winning actress is not green with envy over the media whore Kim K who currently switches men out her mouth like blow pops since the Reggie Bush debacle. Sources quote "Halle couldnt careless who Gabriel dates"  HB is upset that her daughter, Nahla may have been exposed to reality cameras via Kim Kardashian who she sees unfit to tote her princess due to her rise to fame which involves a sex tape with Ray J.(*NASTY*)

(*NASTY*)

The breaking news is that sources close to the pair are now stating that Aubry called HB the "N" word during heated arguments. They claim they have audio, text messages and emails. I suspect HB is mad and we all know she is a drama queen. This leak maybe directly from the beautiful, hit and run, Monster's Ball star. I think she felt cheapen by his appearance with KK --How dare he be seen with a reality tv chick! Im Halle Berry Bitches! type attitude which is going to destroy their daughter when she gets old enough to read this crap. Remember when she sent barefoot Eric Benet to sex therapy PUBLICLY!?? You cant "F" word with HB... she's a lil crazy. And yall know HB is not going out like that. She will be kicking and punching all the way. Gabriel Aubry should just go back to modeling underwear and leave the publicity stunts for the real Celebrities.

The desperate lean in to be seen.. Moms dont look 2 happy

Halle Berry likes the drama.. The diva long list of dysfunctional hunks:

Christopher Williams who allegedly contributed to HB being partially deaf in her left ear.

David Justice who was accused of abusing HB

Eric Benet who publicly went to Rehab for a "Sex Addiction" to salvage their marriage

When times were good

New Beau... Oliver Martinez. He is gorgeous and I hope this goes well.

Afro Sexy 4 EVERYBODY

In Celebration Of BlackStory Month

Naomi Campbell-BeautifulFro

I love my afro. When I whip it out I feel proud, feminine, courageous, and in control. My afro is my god given halo. I feel unique cuz no two afros are completely alike.  Contrary to popular belief: Black people hair textures vary. My twin and I have different hair textures. You can find up to three different textures in one afro which makes it more spectacularly dimensional. However the complete puff fluff is my favorite worn by Queens like Pam Grier, Lola Falana, Erykah Badu etc. It is officially BlackStory month and I want to begin the celebration with Afros. Each day we will bring you AFRO OF THE MOMENT.

When you strengthen your self-esteem, there is no room for jealousy. -Dr. Harold Bloomfield

Courtesy of amazing artist Steven Stahlberg

Jealousy is the surest way to get rid of the very person you are afraid of losing. When you say I love you, it means "I want the very best for you whether or not I am included." You must acknowledge any feelings of jealousy to understand what they are. Jealousy is a signpost of the longings in your subconscious mind. It reminds you that what you are longing is also longing you. There are only two emotions, love and fear.  When jealousy comes up, stop and recognize that it is actually fear raising its ugly head. Fear of losing someone or something, fear that there is not enough. If you allow yourself to be jealous, you cannot love. It is important to acknowledge all your feelings and not beat yourself up for having them. Your feelings are not good or bad, they just are. Jealousy is simply reminding you that you are worthy of the best. When you remember who you are, the jealousy will dissolve and you will be ready to receive what you want. 

                                                                                            - Goddess YeYe Iyanla Vanzant

Say it proud: I honor my feelings no matter what they are.
