Gabby Douglas' Hair Irks Some Black Women....AGAIN (SMH)

Black women still have issue with Gabby Douglas hair? SMH, these jealous heifers need to have several seats. She's too busy winning gold.

Some black women need to get them some business and stop worrying about Gabby Douglas. This isn't the first time black women have criticized Gabby about her hair. It's like this: Gabby is too busy winning gold medals to worry about her hair; she doesn't have time to constantly fix her hair after each event. In case these hens didn't realize, even if she gets her hair done, she's constantly sweating in competition so what sense would it make for her to have her hair done? ZERO. I'm over the nonsense perpetuated by some black women about Gabby Douglas' hair. If they're so concerned about her hair, why don't THEY do it? I'm sure Gabby would pay them. Some of these women probably have nothing going on for themselves so they talk about a girl's hair. However, I was glad some people on social media stood up for her, and told those critical women to get a life. Honestly, Gabby needs to GO IN one good time on everyone who has something to say about her hair. She should unload on her hair critics so serious that they won't think of saying something about her hair again.

Trying to make someone feel like they're not real because they choose to get away from a toxic person is stupid.

We should never accept what the world has made us. We must be willing to accept what God wants to make us.

Why Ask Why?

Why, why, why? Why did this person hurt me and so on? Do people really need an explanation for why people hurt them? They shouldn't, because the guilty person will rarely, if ever take responsibility for their offenses. They'll always find a way to deflect or offer some half-hearted apology. Some people are that foul, so the best course of action is to cut them loose and move on. Stop seeking an apology from someone who will most likely show no remorse for their actions. I'll never understand some people who continually confront their offender(s) looking for an apology for their wrongdoing against them. If someone hurts you, and they haven't made amends, it's a sure sign they don't care. Because they don't care, you're not as likely to get remorse from them. It's easier said than done, but like the Disney movie song from Frozen states: Let It Go, Let It Go.

If I was God, I wouldn't have none of the patience for people & their nonsense that he does. I'd destroy everyone and start over.

Success is not a number in your bank account, it is a lifestyle. It's doing what you love to your maximum ability.

Levels To Provision

There's levels to provision. There's financial and spiritual provision. Most believers see provision from a financial aspect.

— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) August 9, 2016

When most people think of provision, it's always in the financial sense. Providing financially is part of what it means to be a provider. Because providing is Biblical, and the man is tasked with being a provider, then provision means a Godly man provides financially, spiritually and emotionally. When his wife is frustrated, he provides her with peace of mind to know that everything will be alright. His kids look to him to provide financially, to give his family a roof over their heads and clothes on their backs. From a spiritual standpoint, a man provides his family with a lasting spiritual foundation that continues after he leaves this world. I know the Bible has 800+ verses dealing with money so God obviously values money, but I think finances is at least 25% of what being a provider is all about.

Leaving Madness Behind

Everyone should do what's best for them, even if it may make others upset. Going further, who's someone to get upset at the choices you make that'll benefit you in the long run? That's crazy. If you're tired of the madness going on in your city, you have every right to plan your exit strategy. It's not running because you want to live in peace. In my opinion, it's foolish to stay in a chaotic environment because it's a matter of time before that chaos touches your life.

Greenleaf

Don't do it, Bishop! #Greenleaf

Unlike some of my favorite programs, Greenleaf was so good I was hooked from the start. You can tell this show was well written from the acting to the storyline. Oprah could NOT have gotten a better line-up for this show, and I watch this show every night at 10pm Wednesday night. Personally, I wish this show would move to Friday or Saturday night at 8pm, but sometimes you have to save the best for last. What I like about Greenleaf is this show exposes the scars and secrecy that's prevalent in some black churches. This show teaches that it's nothing wrong with vulnerability, because your secrets will come out anyway. Too many black Christians try to appear high, holy & sanctified that it makes me want to vomit. Each character has their own scars and you can tell by some of the most touching scenes in the show.
Gigi should have known she would be found out about sleeping with Noah; she works at the church and word travels fast. Isabelle already knew Noah and Gigi slept together, and she didn't have to ask either one of them! Women have a strong sense of discernment that they know what's up. I called it that Charity knows her husband is gay, and it's just a matter of time before she finds out. Bishop got gangster on Mac. He got that gun ready, walked into the office all calm, and he was ready to shoot Mac. I really think on the next episode Bishop will shoot Mac unless Gigi intervenes (which she will, because she was already on her way to Uncle Mac's office at the end). Lady Mae KNOWS Mac violated those girls, but wants to live in denial.
