Hold Your Head High
Look The World Straight In The Eye
I really like these words!
There are too many people
who want to push us down,
trying to discourage us at every turn,
and it is usually because they are jealous of us.
Never let them stop you!
Never bend your head to them!
Be Proud of who you are,
of what you have personally achieved.
Have Confidence,
have Faith
in Yourself,
in Your own abilities.
Look at what you Can personally do
and Smile,
because we all have talents
that no one else will have.
And
‘look the world straight in the eye’
and say:
“This is who I am, accept me!”
You’ll be surprised
how many people
WILL
Respect you.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

A lesser-known tale, meanwhile, is intertwined with this controversy: the untold tale of beauty pageants surpassing ideas of sex and love.

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
