“Die he or justice must; unless for him some other able, and as willing, pay the rigid satisfaction, death for death. Say heav’nly Powers, where shall we find such love, which of ye will be mortal to redeem Man’s mortal crime, and just th’ unjust to save, dwells in all Heaven charity so dear?” ~…… Continue reading Darkness Fell ~ Part 1 of an Easter Story

Challenging Feminism
Originally posted on BeautyBeyondBones:
Lately, it’s been really weird to be a woman. Not because of any fashion or makeup trends…although, I will say…I don’t quite understand the reemergence of the shoulder pad. But because of all the recent hyper focus on…feminism. The Women’s March, International Women’s Day, protests, walk outs, I mean, we get it already……
My Story
Well, this is probably waaaayyyyyy overdue. XD A little procrastination gif for all my fellow procrastinators out there 😉 But, getting down to what this post is really about…my story.

My Thoughts
As some of you have likely heard, in the new live-action Beauty and the Beast, they are going to have a clearly gay character: Le Fou.

Dirt is smeared across his face, though a brilliant smile shows his baby white teeth. His once yellow shirt, is now covered in splattering’s of strawberries, purple paint, and something else that she…… Continue reading Love
Thousandth Generation
Over Christmas, we went to Mississippi to see family. While we were there, on one occasion, my grandparents, mom, brother, and I were all sitting around the kitchen table. My Nana was telling us that when my Papa and her were raising my mom and aunt, they had wanted to start a housing unit/apartments for…… Continue reading Thousandth Generation
Journal Entry
I like to journal the classic way (I’m not really even sure what would be the other way of journaling?), in a diary. I’m really bad about actually writing in it regularly, but I do keep a list on my cellphone of things I need to write in my journal, so that when I do…… Continue reading Journal Entry
