Generous To A Fault

Being generous doesn't mean allowing yourself to be used.

Bill Cosby Sex Assault Charge

62 women came forward 30+ years later to reveal they were sexually assaulted by Bill Cosby. I guess it pays to wait decades before you reveal you were raped😒. Those women got what they wanted, so may they fade to black. (I don’t care about losing FB friends behind my comment.)

My thoughts won't change regarding rape: Folks who wait decades to come forward about rape experiences damage their credibility because the first thing I'm thinking is why they didn't come forward sooner? Sexual assault victims have a greater chance of getting justice if they come forward immediately because the incident is fresh in their minds. I'm wondering how all those women remember Bill Cosby raping them 30+ years ago. Surely they got their stories mixed up or left out details, something. I'm not getting into conspiracy theories about how Bill was framed because he wanted to buy NBC. All I'm going to say is Bill Cosby had a lot of fickle fans; fans supported him when he was squeaky-clean, but since he was convicted of rape, they left that man out to dry.

Know Your Value

Everyone won't see your value, and that's ok. Some people aren't supposed to see your value because they can't handle it.

Today's Thought

The best things in life are never found. They appear like magic, out of faith, and blossom with love.
