I've been listening to all the news and gossip about Chris Brown and Rihanna. And my humanitarian side is always for the underdog, in this case it's Chris Brown. As I've read the gossip, the personal statements, etc. I was reminded of a time in my life where I pushed men to the point where they just couldn't walk away. I wouldn't let them, it was me who needed to walk away, but I was so intent on having my say and my way that the man eventually did what he had to do. Now I'm not saying that Rihanna did any of this, but we as women are so use the man being the abuser. In this day and time, women have learned how to be pretty abusive. In either case it's not right. You see I became who I was because of the abuse I had to suffer through before I found my feminine powers. We are not as weak as we let on. And those that are weak, it's a figment of your imagination. Now when I got mad and spit on that man, his first reaction was to slap the taste out of my mouth. And believe it or not when he slapped me, I spit on him again. And of course, the fight was on and popping from there. And yes I was young, and the things I was taught about relationships and men was from the streets. That still didn't make it right. Now I imagine a lot of women have a lot to say about my opinion, please feel free to express your point of view at any given time. I would love to hear it, after all there is always two side to every coin! Peace!

Goddess, you are so right about wanting to have your say and speaking your mind. Sometimes it is better to just walk away and wait for a more opportune moment. That is easier said than done, but worth the effort. I, too feel for Chris and Rihanna. Not only are they learning about relationships from the wrong sources (Hollywood), they are also being judged in the public arena on a private matter.
ReplyDeleteOne thing that I am sure we all can agree on is that life is too short to waste time trying to prove who was right and who was wrong. I'm sure they both know now the mistake that they made that night and will learn, just as you and I have, from the experience. I wish them the best.

When we come into complete control of our minds and way of thinking, we develope a strong sence of how to understand it and what pushes our buttons.
ReplyDeleteWhen one realizes what and why they are thinking certain things, they learn how to not let certain things effect them.
There's a process.
Know when you are thinking and what you are giving thought to.
We all change moment to moment, therefore you can change thought with this same method.
Walking away is hard to do, when you have certain thoughts and feelings eating away at you in that particular moment.
Change your thought to benefit you.
Change it and think about something beautiful.
You will find it easier to do that then to continue to carry the load of anger or rage.
All of these carry the same amount of energy.
One is positive, the other is negative.
Excellent post !
