Day 3.... I Rock...

Beautiful I consider myself to be..

I wake up every morning and thank GOD he made me..

I am a natural sister that Loves the simple things in life..

I walk with my head held high….

There have been many who have tried to knock me down..

They can’t I am Solid and I am a ROCK……..

Day 2.. Water... One of the Worlds Elements...

                                  White Rapids, Atlantic, Pacific,and even the Gulf...

Bodies of Water with the rippling waves...

We drink it.. We play with it.. Can not survive without it.. 

Water

*Didn't quite know where to go with this WATER word* lol

Blog Challenge: Day 1.. In my Darkness

My world is Cold, Gloomy, and Dark.. I remain shut from the world and live in what I call my Castle. I refuse to let anyone in.. I fear whats on the outside of these walls so I live within this fortress.. I am guarded by stone, coal, and cement.. I build this to shield me from the pain.I can't remember the last time I opened up the gates.. I am not sure if I ever know when the next time I might.. I am going to stay in here until I can let go of the fear of sunlight... 

New Blog Challenge!!

Welcome to the Challenge!!!

Thanks to Mahogany Dymond you guys have been gifted with ANOTHER challenge! (Thank or blame HER!!) LOL

 This blog will be kind of different. Not like the others, this isn't just a writing challenge, but a creativity challenge. You can invite who you like to join in...just remember to encourage your buddy to follow the rest of the challenge takers and like The Kween's Kaleidoscope on Facebook so you can keep up with everyone else's blogs!

 This is also the month where NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month) takes place...so we can participate in our own way. (I'm posting a day early so we all can prepare and invite who we like)

 So...HERE WE GO!!!

 Use each word (in any part of speech) and create a fictional paragraph. It can be any style, any topic...as long as it's original.

 We're keeping this challenge down to one paragraph for a few reasons:


- It's brief. If we have 10 or more blogs, it can be almost impossible to read several scrolls of words every day...making it hard for us to keep up with one another's daily offerings.
- It sparks creativity. If you if you have only a paragraph of 100 words or less...it makes you come to your point quicker, allowing you to use better forms of expression.
- It encourages each blogger to participate. If we all know there's not a lot to write (yet still feeds our creative muses) then people may be more apt to blog. Not everyone can write extensively off the top of their heads...so this caters to both kinds of writers.

The Saga never ends!!

Fading a Memory..

It was a time when everything was so perfect..

In my eyes I saw nothing wrong…

At the time I needed the attention, the affection, and the warmth of you..

The laughs, the good times, and the passion that was between you & I…

Every day was a joy waking up next to you..

The morning kisses and the tight hugs..

It made me fall more and more in LOVE.

Then that came to an abrupt end…

Your eyes, your mind, and your heart wondered..

You failed to realized what an impact that made in my life..

It really changed me.. The life I had before you was no longer..

The secrets of my personal life were out in the open…

I was lost, didn't know how to mend and bring back the pieces that was broken & shattered…

So I fell back.. I lost contact… I wasn't going to allow you to hurt me anymore..

That went on for months and months..

Until one day, my emotions, my heart, and my feelings came in daily spurts..

I didn't know who to turn to..

So I came to you..

You promised to always be honest..

You promised that you wouldn't lie to me again..

How was I so naive to think that?

Was my love for you that strong?

Once again, LIES were told…

Now I see the REAL you…

No more blinded by the Good Times we shared..

It is starting to become a faded memory..

All I see it the Pain and the Hurt..

I can’t allow my heart, continue be stomped in the dirt..

So now I pop my collar and dust off my shirt..

Good Ole America Ways!! Where is the Justice!! Oh wait... There isnt any... Yesterday proved it...

February 2012 a young man was followed and killed to his death... July of 2013 the man that caused his murder, FREE... He was able to get a NOT GUILTY verdict... He also gets to have his gun that caused the death of 17 year of Trayvon Martin back in his possession.. Does it surprise me, NO! Does it hurt me, YES! The judicial system years on years haven't been fair...

After hearing about Trayvon's Death.. I was saddened that a young man lost his life.. I am saddened when any kid looses his/hers life... Children have the right to grow up and live there lives.. No one should take that away from them.. Trayvon lost his life because he was a Black Young Man. You can not tell me any different.. He was followed, hunted, and shot and all he had was some Tea and some Skittles.. WTF?

I didn't watch the trial because looking at his parents bared to much on my already emotional self... When I would see his parent talk to the media I would burst out in tears.. So I didn't want to see that any more.. I wanted to BELIEVE that NO ONE IN THERE RIGHT MIND WOULD FIND THIS MAN NOT GUILTY... Well 1st off having 6 jurors and not 12.. Have all women in which all were not mixed with different races... That to me was unfair in itself... Then to hear the defense say Trayvon cause his death.. WTF? Of course if a man was following me around while I am going home and approach me.. I AM GOING TO DEFEND MYSELF.. So if Trayvon attack this man, it was because he was in FEAR of his LIFE.. Why didn't George get in trouble for it..? The 911 dispatcher told him NOT to get out of his car.. The world we live in.. SMH..


So in today's society a BLACK MAN LIFE STILL HAS NO VALUE... It hurts to the core with me. Then everyone is talking about the Black on Black Crimes.. True in our community there are a lot of blacks killing blacks.. So in the white community, the Hispanic community, etc, etc.... This isn't the case at hand.. It is that a YOUNG BLACK MAN was being PROFILED as SUSPICIOUS...

I have always been FOR the PEOPLE.. I love my race and to see such disrespect toward us.. I SMH.. It has become top much for me.. I myself is trying to find peace and heal from this.. Last night after the verdict, I had to delete some people I once called my friend.. I've been waiting to do that because of the Hateful stuff he says about the President.. Then some of the hateful stuff he said last night.. I couldn't take no more.. His words shows me he is a BIGOT.. He is a evil, racist, asshole.. Then have the nerve to always smile, laugh, and hug me.. The same race of people you talk about are the same as me.. So it makes me to believe, in his eyes.. I AM A NIGGER TOO!!

So people are to stand.. Be more active in the community.. Get involved in the people you elected in to the local, state, and federal government.. I know even they can't be trusted but some way some how we can be more represented.. We need JUSTICE to become more morally correct than being depended on evidence..

I am going to continue to pray for Trayvon's Family... I don't know how they feel but to me it feels like I lost hope too.. I also pray for all the Black Families that had to deal with the death of a family member(s).. I also pray that BLACK MEN everywhere keep their heads up.. I want AMERICANS to unite and becoming more loving.. We got to make a difference.. We got to stop with the stereotypes, bigotry, the hate, and the judgement...

We need a better judicial system.. There need to be some improvements...

The Old South Strikes again... The Paula Deen Edition

Everyone that knows me KNOWS that this woman was my Idol..  I am a COOK and not a Chef... I love the Southern Comfort/ Soul Food.. Well Mrs. Deen has rocked my world a little.. Mrs Collard Greens have showed her ugly side... 

When finding out about what she said.. To this day.. Her using the NIGGER word didn't bother me at all.. I looked at it this way. SHE GREW UP IN THE SOUTH WHEN NIGGER WAS A COMMON WORD TO DESCRIBE BLACKS! 

I saw that the transcript stated that she said the LiL Niggers dressed up in BOW Tie and white coats dancing around at a Plantation Wedding.. That bothered me.. I have this strong hate for the Chicken George/ Mr. Bojangles stereotype.. Blacks dancing around for the entertainment for Whites.. Doing all kinds of funny stuff to amuse Whites.. Then on the Today show she said she only said it once when she was a Bank Teller..

Well I don't see that she said it once.. I know if she said it once, she has said it before..

The craziest stuff is those who defends Paula Deen and their comments and their sense of justification. .

They are saying why is is Racist when White says it and Blacks say it all the time.. Even saying stuff about having BET and Miss Black America.... I was waiting on them to start BLAMING Obama.. I mean the hatred has gotten way out of hand.. You are starting to know how people really feel.. 

It's even hard to try to explain to people why this is such a BIG DEAL... It was the context in which Paula Deen said it.. Even in a joking manner it has a racist feel.. So it has been interesting.. I still feel like some more of this is going to come out sooner or later...  

I think that most of the companies are dropping Paula Deen in fear of loosing customers in the long run.. The people who are breaking Paula's life is not the Blacks that she has called Nigger in the past, but the People who is just the same color as she.. So Paula, is eating her own words.. She is not seeing how it feels to be Black in a America... She is being SHUNNED and a Outcast... 

I think she will bounce back, in due time anyway.. 

You have to becareeful of the words you speak.. You never know who you are hurting, and nine out of ten, it's hurting you by kicking you in the arse...
