PERFECT timing Fran.. I have recently REALLY been trying to be more positive and deliberately trying not to complain as much.. you really do get stuck in that.

Gentry @marissa-gaskin: Right. I agree as well that there are people who do nothing but criticize, yet they're not working on creating. It's even worse because clearly these people have ideas. It's just they're not nurturing and putting those ideas out there. 2016-05-12T05:51:19Z Comment by The T & A Podcast Y'all are being very dismissive. 2016-05-10T22:15:31Z Comment by The T & A Podcast Why is it that y'all can understand structures of oppression when it comes to race, gender and class but when we try to have a conversation about the inclusion of bigger black bodies presented in different kinds of work, y'all can't understand at all. Y'all act like people are trying to be "Politically Correct" all of a sudden? The Friend Zone was very disappointing this week. Y'all are VERY comfortable in your current and newfound, (Looking at you Assante) thin privilege and it's very evident in your dismissive language and tones. If you don't understand conversations about inclusion, don't fucking have them. 2016-05-10T22:15:06Z Comment by sungoddess407 @ceejay-727721010: ^^re-creative 2016-05-10T15:19:32Z Comment by sungoddess407 @evesgotagun: right!! i was thinking the same thing :) 2016-05-10T15:19:12Z Comment by HeeHittin Hey all! The wellness segment was pretty cool. A few years ago, I read 'The Complaint Free World' and it was the same idea. Came with a plastic band for you to switch from wrist to wrist. I did the task for a couple of weeks. Anyhow, I think you should read it. it reminds me of 'The Four Agreeements'. 2016-05-10T05:09:12Z Comment by PrincessKyla @bee-161: Queen Latifah was on Another Round and said the same thing. Are we really that surprised though? 2016-05-09T15:40:09Z Comment by PrincessKyla Health & Wellness: I consider myself a pretty positive person. However, the one place I struggle with is this whole, " been single forever, when will I fall in love, blah blah thing." Once I start thinking about it, I begin to obsess over it and find myself pretty down and out. SO! In order to help alleviate that, I will be using the rubber band challenge, to improve positive thinking into that aspect of my life. Thanks Fran! 2016-05-09T15:38:20Z Comment by antigonie mcgee Aren't Bey's bgv three BBWs. She been reppin big girls for the longest.
