Someone once said, if you spend all day at a fish market, you'll leave smelling like fish even if you didn't touch one. But if you spend your day in a perfume shop, you'll leave smelling good even if you didn't buy anything. Your environment always rubs off on you. Spend time around people who complain. You'll see negativity everywhere, spend time around people who make excuses. You'll never change, but spend it with people of action, you'll feel inspired to move. Spend it with people of gratitude. You'll see blessings everywhere. The scent of your environment will always follow you.
I won in this life.
I fell in love with a good man and I'll never stop being grateful for that.
A self made man. A hardworking man. A gentleman and safe man. A man who takes care of me in all the ways that matter.
As a Black woman, I am deeply uninterested in spending the second half of my life proving how much I can endure.
I would like to explore how much joy I can hold.
Hay una promesa linda en la biblia que dice:
Dios te dará alegría en la misma medida que sufriste y llenará de bien los años que dolieron.
Salmos 90:15
Aquafina and Dasani are tap water.
Aquafina bottles carried the letters P.W.S. for years. Public water source. After a pressure campaign in 2007, Pepsi agreed to spell the words out. Dasani's own description starts with the local water supply, then reverse osmosis, then minerals added back.
About 45% of US bottled water starts as municipal supply. The rest is spring water, which is a separate legal category with its own rules.
Purified is an accurate word. It describes the treatment, not the source.
my dream marriage is literally just us being best friends, laughing in the kitchen, going on random dates and knowing we can always come home to each other.
