barefoot-and-crazyy: Yoga every damn day
I think this is my new favorite quote.
To me, songs are kind of like bookmarks. Have you ever listened to a song that you haven’t heard in a while, and all of a sudden, all the memories of that time period come back, and you remember what your life used to be like. They’re like milestones in your life.
Her eyes are beautifully stunning!
as a dark skinned woman
i have never felt less than because of my skin
never been told i’m pretty for a dark skinned chieck
never told someone didn’t like me because i was dark skinned
however
my experience doesn’t negate the terrible things other women have had to...
superbass2014: I saw this comment on a YouTube video: ”TOP REASONS WHY BLACK WOMEN ARE SINGLE, NOT ALL FIT THIS DESCRIPTION, BUT TOO DAMN MANY DO, AND PLEASE DON’T TELL A MAN TO CHANGE HIS LIST JUST BECAUSE YOU MIGHT NOT AGREE, ITS HOW WE FEEL. 1. ATTITUDE 2. DISRESPECTFUL 3. 2 OPINIONATED 4. FAKE… Amen to this response!
You will be rewarded for all your hard work.
It may seem dark, hopeless and you may think it would be best to just give up. Don’t, be patient. Change takes time, but real change doesn’t come overnight, it comes slowly, day by day. Always remember that the best moment to be happy is right now. Not when you’ve archieved a goal you’ve set for yourself. Right. Now. Is the moment to be happy. Because once you start to appreciate the moment, you can see the little things that really make you happy. The thing that made me the happiest today wasn’t the trip to the city with my mum (sorry mum), not being home, not laying in my own bed for a few minutes, but the moment when my dad called me when I was back at the hospital to ask me how I was. Eventhough he had dropped me off an hour earlier.
Knowing that I’m loved and being encouraged in my battle is the greatest feeling, the biggest reward of all time. So focus on love, happiness and calmness, and you will learn to see true beauty in the little things.
You will not get what you want; you will get what you need and what you fight for. So keep on fighting, never, ever, ever give up.
HAPPY YOGA DAY EVERYONE!
All thanks to Ana who told me about 21st June being Yoga Day, here’s a little impromptu yoga photo to celebrate the occasion! <:
To celebrate yoga day and our love for yoga, feel free to submit a photo of you doing your favourite yoga pose, and anything you would like to tell everyone about. It can be what is going through your mind when you’re taking this photo, what yoga means to you, anything! <: I would love to hear stories from each and every one of you <: You can also opt to tag your post with ‘sassyyogi’! <:
-
My favourite pose: the dancer’s pose! <: Simply because it always looks so graceful, and it constantly challenges my balance and flexibility. It’s not really a pose that you can nail, because every single attempt brings about different experiences and feelings. You can be pretty awesome at this pose today, but tomorrow you can just fall out of the pose so easily!
Apologies for my intense expression btw, I was in jeans so I was trying so hard to stretch properly, and I was really worried about falling into the water hahaha! <: Plus the waves have been pretty strong today, so the yacht was rocking quite a fair bit <:
So remember, tag your posts with “sassyyogi” or submit your photos for yoga day to me! <: looking forward to all your posts! xx
So I purchased these leg huggin’ babies today

God: Trust me
me: ok
God: No trust me.
me: I am.
God: Fully trust me.
me: ok.
months later
me: God why didn't this happen the way that I wanted it to?
God: did you trust me?
me: Yeah?
God: did you really trust me?
me: not entirely.
God: until you do I must teach you things. Be patient my dear. I want to show you wonderful things, but it isn't going to happen until you fully trust me. I would never hurt you. I love you so much more than you could ever imagine. I am not going to play with your emotions. My will for your life never changes. Please just trust me. I hate seeing you fail over and over again. Just listen to me, just obey me. In times of heartache all I ask is for you to be faithful to me, I love you dearly. I will never leave your side. I am always here with you. Even when you can't feel me, I am here. Things are going to get rough but find strength in me, and me alone. Trust me. I understand that not everything will go your way, but My ways are higher than your ways. and My thoughts are higher than your thoughts. And, listen to me, My word will never come back void. Seek Me with your entire heart and love Me like you used to. Please just trust Me.
Hugging shorter people and resting your head on theirs
Hugging taller people and having your head against their chest
Hugging people your height and pressing your face against their shoulder
Hugging people and getting picked up by them
HUGGING
Hanging crunches with some kisses xx
Yes!
Underneath the strong, independent surface may lie insecurity. This is due to the intense drive to succeed and Aries put too much pressure on themselves, thus resulting in self-doubt however, the natural optimism and enthusiasm overtakes this and the underlying insecurity may never be known to others.
this explains me exactly..
