Pretty in Pink…

Hello World!

Since October is designated as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, there is no way that I could let this month pass by without paying homage to those who are now in heaven in the presence of the Father  – including my line sister Kimberly Hudson Causby, who left this world on May 16, 2005 and those who are on earth petitioning and trusting in the Father for their healing…

In honor of Kim and those who are being healed from breast cancer, my line sisters and other friends decided to paint the town pink although as every Delta knows pink ain’t nothing but crimson and cream mixed together…We walked in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk yesterday at Atlantic Station…I invite you to share in our sisterhood, bonding and hope…

Beautiful line sisters and a teeny weeny Delta in training!

 

A pooch in pink!  Anyone remember Poochie?

 

There is strength in numbers! We ready!

 

Pretty in Pink!

 

Crazy line sisters!

 

Other black Greeks represent!!!

 

They got that pink spirit!

 

 

Another Delta in training! Check the hand on the hip!

 

Corvettes for breast cancer awareness! I want one for Christmas!

 

 

Pink from head to toe…

 

VICTORY!!!

You may or may not be wondering why I am not in any of these pictures…Well first, everything ain’t ’bout me…but also, chile I thought it was going to be a race like the Peachtree Road Race so I came with my hair wrapped up ready to sweat…so it was not a good look…had I known it was a victory lap(walk) type of event, I would have been a number #1 stunna as well…lol…

Anywho, my prayer for those who are currently fighting the good fight against breast cancer…

 

Sustain me according to your promise, and I will live; do not let my hopes be dashed. Psalm 119:116

Any thoughts?

Little Black Girl Power…

Hello World!

Obama Girl Swag...

It’s a good time to be a little black girl…not that it wasn’t in the ’80s when I was a preadolescent. But between the start of MTV and the popularity of shows like “The Dukes of Hazzard,” a little black girl couldn’t get a break…I mean back then, you might be able to catch New Edition on TV or even our friends from across the pond, Musical Youth (Remember them?) Oh yeah, there was at least one little black girl on TV – Tootie from “The Facts of Life” but her shine wasn’t like Blair, arguably the main character of the show…but now little black girl power is front and center…shout to Willow Smith…

And if your parents don’t let you watch music videos yet, you can always check out “Sesame Street.” Kudos to them for “keepin’ it one hunnud.” (Is that slang still apropos? now that I’m nearing my late ’30s, my slang knowledge could be slippin’.)

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

Psalm 139:14

To beat a dead horse…(or black women are the mules of the world – Zora Neale Hurston)

Hello World,

2010 must be the year of “Bash the Black Women.”  From “Why Can’t a Successful Black Woman Find a Man?” to “What Chilli Wants”, the challenges of the love life of black women have been on display for the world to dissect, theorize and criticize…And now our issues are the subject of an increasingly popular cartoon featured on YouTube…

So what do you think? Is there some truth to this funny video? Or we just an easy target at this point?

Hopefully, next year, some other population group will be the topic of discussion…Thankfully, however, there are some black men who are willing to discuss their love woes and related issues on the Internet….

2. Baby Daddy Diaries

3. Giving Love A Chance

Check these brothers out. Let me know what you think.
