"Today, make peace with the past, the things you've been through that have brought you to where you are. Your face, your body, your posture are all reflections of the life you've lived. Your resilience is a reflection of your beauty. Reconsider the things you've associated with beauty in the past. Renew your self-image.
Today, stop comparing yourself to others and rejoice in yourself. Life is heartbreaking to each and every once of us. Since we never know what the next person is going through, we must remember to always be kind. First with ourselves, then with our fellow man. Beauty teaches us to see with our hearts." -- GG of Peace Love and Pretty Things
Inside the mind of a kind of quirky, pretty stubborn, way too opinionated, twenty-something, heteroflexible Black female newly employed up-and-moved-to-DC Princeton GRADUATE who's just trying to sort out her life. An uninhibited celebration of all that is me, this blog is an exercise in self-discovery and live-with-your-heart-wide-open-ness. Though I make respect a habit, I will not always be politically correct, and I believe in the power of making audiences uncomfortable to inspire change.
