⁣ I deleted my black square after spending time reading and understanding the different ways an individual can help⁣ ⁣ This is not a time to be quiet ⁣ ⁣ Post on your feed as you want, of course, but for me, sharing the photos above and countless information in my story feed, help spread education and understanding⁣ ⁣ I might not feel 💯 in sharing my normal daily content at this moment, but not sharing anything regarding POC isn’t helping either...taking a week off of social media doesn’t help with awareness, and it shows my privilege more because POC don’t get to take a week off from racism ... it just doesn’t stop... ⁣ Thank you to everyone on Instagram sharing their insight and information that have helped everyone better understand many sides to this battle...⁣because it truly is a battle...share, read, listen, donate ✊🏻✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 ⁣ #blackouttuesday #justice

I have privilege as a white person because I can do all of these things without thinking twice: I can go birding (#ChristianCooper) I can go jogging (#AmaudArbery) I can relax in the comfort of my own home (#BothemSean and #AtatianaJefferson and #BreonnaTaylor) I can ask for help after being in a car crash (#JonathanFerrell and #RenishaMcBride) I can have a cellphone (StephonClark) I can leave a party to get to safety (JordanEdwards) I can play loud music (JordanDavis) I can sell CDs (AltonSterling) I can sleep (AiyanaJones) I can walk from the corner store (MikeBrown) I can play cops and robbers (TamirRice) I can go to church (Charleston9) I can walk home with Skittles (TrayvonMartin) I can hold a hair brush while leaving my own bachelor party (SeanBell) I can party on New Years (OscarGrant) I can get a normal traffic ticket (SandraBland) I can lawfully carry a weapon (PhilandoCastile) I can break down on a public road with car problems (CoreyJones) I can shop at Walmart (JohnCrawford) I can have a disabled vehicle (TerrenceCrutcher) I can read a book in my own car (KeithScott) I can be a 10yr old walking with our grandfather (#CliffordGlover) I can decorate for a party (#ClaudeReese) I can ask a cop a question (#RandyEvans) I can cash a check in peace (#YvonneSmallwood) I can take out my wallet (#AmadouDiallo) I can run (#WalterScott) I can breathe (#EricGarner) I can live (#FreddieGray) I CAN BE ARRESTED WITHOUT THE FEAR OF BEING MURDERED (#GeorgeFloyd) White privilege is real. Take a minute to consider a Black person’s experience today. #BlackLivesMatter *I copied and pasted this; please do the same.* We must fight for justice. NOW.

⁣⁣ For so many years, as a teen, I thought hiding my body in the summer, was normal, because it wasn’t the “typical” body figure that society wanted to portray and share🙈. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⚠️I have chubby arms & I shouldn’t be wearing tank tops because people will see them...put a cardigan over them. ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⚠️My thighs touch so I can’t wear shorts shorter than above my knee or short dresses. ⁣⁣ ⁣ ⚠️I’m large chested but I can’t wear low cut shirts in case my cleavage shows because that’s too sexualizing. ⁣⁣ ⁣ ⚠️My fingers look fat⁣ ⁣ ⚠️You can’t wear horizontal stripes, they make you look wider than you already are⁣ ⁣ You name it...I’ve heard it....⁣ ⁣⁣ ...but? This had nothing to do with what I was comfortable in, no no, it was determined by others not being comfortable looking at me wearing items that “flaunt” these physical assets...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Turtlenecks✅⁣ I’ll just wear turtlenecks all year ‘round for your comfort so you’re not bothered by my body...⁣by my skin...the actual organ I was given to portray and show off...⁣ ⁣⁣ How messed up is that?⁣⁣ How ridiculous is it that other people decide what type of body figure is “acceptable” to show or love, and what type isn’t?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Do I not deserve to have friends due to my figure?⁣⁣ Am I less of a person because my thighs touch and create storms?⁣⁣ Do I not deserve love & a sexual relationship because my tummy isn’t flat and rock hard?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ If you answered yes to any of those questions above, then you have some serious self reflection to endure to understand that EVERY BODY deserves happiness, love & to be shown off by the person who owns it....not society...society does not own your body. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣ #abundantlife #liveabundantly #thehappynow #choosehappy #livehappy #daysofsmallthings #ofsimplethings #huffpostgram #dslooking #documentyourdays #selflove #bloomyellow #mycandidlife #myeverydaymagic #thesparklediaries #abmlifeisbeautiful #abmlifeiscolorful #ilovemybodybecause #bodypositivity #loveyourself #iloveme #selflovejourney #feelfreefeed #iamwellandgood #followyourbliss #makeitblissful #discoverunder5k #discoverunder10k

⁣⚠️RANT BELOW⚠️ I’ve come to realize, even after using the terms “relationship goals” or “husband goals” myself in the past, that these terms just need to stop. ⁣Had anyone ever realize that maybe these terms might make people feel compared too & as another standard to have to “live up too” ?? ⁣ I do not like them. They’re just more labels to apply to people!⁣ I don’t even like when people have told me that Jordan and I are relationship goals...⁣it took a long time of work & communication, 12 years to be exact, to get here... to get to whatever “goals” material is. ⁣ There is no perfect relationship, and there is not one piece of perfect relationship advice that someone can just come up with and tell you to apply.⁣ ⁣ Why?...🤔⁣ ⁣ because every relationship is different and using terms like “relationship goals” immediately push you to compare what you have or don’t have, or what type of spouse you are, to someone else.⁣ ⁣ 🛑 Stop that shit! 🛑 ⁣ ⁣ My relationship differs from everyone else’s, and what me and my partner have will differ from whatever Bob & Sue have or whatever Kelly & Sarah have. ⁣ ⁣ It always differs...💞⁣ ⁣ The only piece of relationship advice you need to worry about or that anyone should be giving you, is communication is literally the 🔑 to everything & it can be communication about anything!⁣ ⁣ As long as you and your partner are communicating through the “goals” and the ups/downs, then everything else will adapt⁣ ⁣ Stop applying everyone else’s “relationship rules” to your relationship and find your own rhythm and goals to aim for, as a team!⁣👩‍❤️‍👨👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #myhappyviews #myeverydaymagic #thehappynow #daysofsmallthings #iamwellandgood #feelfreefeed #mycandidlife #highvibes #bloomyellow #hayhouse #searchwandercollect #nowhereeverywhere #choosehappiness #liveabundantly #huffpostgram #discoverunder10k #dslooking #documentyourdays #thesparklediaries #thehappynow #myhappyviews #myeverydaymagic #followyourbliss #makeitblissful #abmlifeiscolorful #abmlifeisbeautiful #wellnessjourney #thesehappysquares #daysofsmallthings #amomentofwonder

⁣ soooo, no ones 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ is going as planned, right?⁣ ⁣ I mean, let’s just cue the “FRIENDS” theme song now... no one told you 2020 was gonna be this way...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⁣ ⁣ I’ll be the first to agree with that!⁣ ⁣ I think 2020 is teaching us a lesson, and a really good one. ⁣ ⁣ I might be alone on this but I feel as though 2020 is teaching us to slow down, take everything in & truly be thankful for each day, because as many of us have witnessed, tomorrow is never promised. ⁣ ⁣ 2020 is healing us & the 🌏, 1 day at a time. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #choosehappy #thehappynow #abmlifeiscolorful #abmlifeisbeautiful #myeverydaymagic #hindsightis2020 #dslooking #huffpostgram #abundantlife #followyourbliss #dayslikethese #daysofsmallthings #feelfreefeed #iamwellandgood #bloomyellow #hayhouse #searchwandercollect #discoverunder10k #thesparklediaries #myhappyviews #bandofun #theeverygirl

⁣ why do we hide from the world?⁣ ⁣ why do we live in a society where we feel ashamed for our creativity, or confidence?⁣ ⁣ “You’d be much prettier without all that crap on your face”⁣ ⁣ “Do you have to always make sure your hair looks that way?”⁣ ⁣ “You should smile more. People won’t be so intimidated by you”⁣ ⁣ “You take pictures of yourself for Instagram?

Okay! Don’t lie to yourself ... be honest ... are we truly doing everything we can to be happy? ⁣⁣ We have no one to blame for our own moods but ourselves and the more we tell ourselves things “suck” or we automatically assume it’s going to be a “shitty day” we’re more likely to stick with that mindset & mood all day or longer.. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ You’re allowed to have shitty days or moods because someone fucked with your energy..that’s life! but it’s how we resolve those moods, that matter...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 🐚 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘴𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦 “𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥” 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘫𝘶𝘮𝘱 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 📓𝘫𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴...𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦’𝘴 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴🧠𝘚𝘰 𝘐 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘫𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨.
