Change Your Body. Image

First things first.  The average woman in the US is a size 14 and might I add that some of those women are absolutely gorgeous.  It is really not about your size but rather about how you feel about your body.  Admittely it is hard to love your body when we are being bombarded with images of women that are so very far from the reality.  In fact it has become an unhealthy and rather scary depiction of a woman, some almost look like a doll and some have actually had surgery to look like Barbie.  There is even a real life Ken running around who was recently focused on in a documentary about plastic surgery.  Almost ever part of his body was manufactured and surgically created.  Never mind photo shop and all the cuts and pastes are done to present a woman in the best light possible and so that she looks incredible.  Never mind that a lot of models are barely 21 made to look like they are 30.  Although makeup is a wonderful thing for some, a lot of...

Self Loving Is Overated 2

Love is when you love someone even if it's not convenient.  After seeing the "The Late Quartet" I witnessed for myself the love of four people who happened to be in a string quaret together.  They, I would imagine could not help but to go deeply in love with one another.  Something about that kind of comrad like relationship is so beautiful and touching.  Something we cannot all understand nor would we expeirence if it were not for the instrument we love and the people who love them with us. How we get outide of ourselves to play in a group is the way that we might best love each other, all of us.  This self loving stuff becomes secondary in a way when one asks of someone to harmonize with them musically.  Would it not be so fine if that is the way we held relationship as if we were a quartet.  As if we were an imporant part of something bigger?  We would get our heads out of our asses and actually have a reationship, a real one where there were e...

Racism is Alive and Well because...

Whoopie Goldberg stars in this movie opposite Sissy Spacek.  It is about a liberal white woman who has a police officer aplogize to her maid when he saw her in the park with her white children and called her a "nigger" and asked her to get out of the park immediately.  The person played by Sissy Spacek is later blasted by her husband for making the officer apologize to a "nigger".  Sissy defends her position and sticks to the fact that it was wrong and that this was a person who took care of her children. Still today there is this lack of respect for people of color that prompts me to say "the gays came out of the closet and the racist got in".  I sincerely believe that racism is still alive and thriving in the souls of many people who still believe people of color are less than them and have a horrible disrespect and opinion of us.  Yet we deny it.  Not only whites but also people of color deny that racism is still an isssue.  It may not be as overt...
