Last of a Dying Breed

I know that people don't like to talk about or address the state of the black population. However, although there are many, I think that we are considered a dying breed. For some people, that may sound like good news. To me, I would still like my color to exist. I am actually talking about the Black American. Its not that I am racist and its not that I am against dating other races, but I notice this issue. I am a black woman and I date black men. Our race of people get a bad reputation. We are considered rude, disorderly, and whatever else. There are a mass among other races that don't like us, but then we really don't like ourselves. Women and men in this race are always pained with our jacked up relationships. Stereotypes eat us alive, but we eat ourselves alive by doing what is expected of us. I remember my friend was using someone in his short films and getting paid for the performance. The guy he was using had an idea and decided that he really didnt get much of any money for his features in the films. Well, he demanded to receive the films so he can get paid like my friend. Immediately, my friend gave him the films. My friend didn't mind giving the actor the films because he knew something an important fact. He knew that the actor was going to do nothing with them. We have been free for many years and although we had to start from ignorance, we were given a chance to be free. We can now have knowledge, but are we going to do something with it? Well, the dynamics of relationships from now and then is not really something you can read up on. Reading about relationships is not something that helps a race of people pick up broken pieces of love. With all the control from the past, the black lovefoundation was somewhat broken. Our black love was disrespected and mistreated. Black love is so distorted from pain that we can't even fathom what it is about. There are some good marriages and black relationships, but I see it as a representation of the better of the slave masters who didn't corrupt black slaves with their twisted fantasies. However, with all the pain from broken relationships and sexual desire of what was left of slaves, the loyalty of a married slave was lost. The offspring see it and it stays tucked in a very deep place. Now we have our black men looking around for something other than black women and vice versa. Now, our black women don't want to be black anymore. They wish they had better hair, better this, better that, because they look at the masses of non-blacks with the attitude that it's better. I can't lie, I have been there. So I call us the "last of a dying breed."

Housecleaning: Master Cleanse for Dannis!

So, I am random and oh so not on it when it comes to topics, subjects, and maintaining rhythms in my blogs. However, I must tell you that I am definitely on the Master Cleanse. This is day 2 and I feel like its day 20. I have a headache. I hardly have headaches and it just feels like something crawled up my nasal cavity and is now invading my brain. I know that sounds scary, but imagine if its true. I almost feel like its true. As soon as I see a heart thump on my forehead, I will have my confirmation. I also look weird as well. I don't know if it is the combination of the normal monthly thing and the cleanse that is making me feel and look like this, but I am ready for day 3 to just come and go. So, I know you are wondering how I look. I look tired and my eyes are much more slanted than usual. Today I moved as slow as pond water and if it wasn't for me doing a favor for a friend, my ass would have been completely out of the public eye. Mind you, I am not really suppose to stay in all day because it ruins my Vitamin D levels. People, vitamin D is serious and if I am not eating then I should be out getting some sun to keep my vitamin D up. The last check up was great but the check up before that was completely low. My vitamin D was 16 out of 30. 30 is good and I was lower than 30...30 what? I have know idea, but I got to work and made sure it was better the next time. Ok, back to the cleanse. Um, Day 2 is sucky. I did the saltwater flush this morning and hated the aftermath. YUCK! I hate the taste and I hate when it comes out on the other end. Its just a disaster. I think I will be permanently damaged with the fear of passing gas...up, hold on, let me see if there is a such phobia....yep, it is called flatuphobia. Yeah, I might get that after this because passing gas during any part of the cleanse might result in crapping your pants. Ok, sooooooo, I think that is all I feel like talking about for now. I may or may not be back for day 3. Sorry about the grammar and all. I know practice makes perfect but I really don't feel like practicing. I have alot of things on my mind, like how much food I am not going to eat and looking for ways to prevent flatuphobia in my post master cleanse thingy.
TOOTLES !!
LOVe Danni!

Internet Marketing

I have really been working on my internet marketing skills. From building blogs, making posts, working on my affiliate programs and more, I have been working hard and I think I am getting somewhere, even though I haven't seen many results. These things take time to learn and I am learning as I go. I try not to put so much money into it and I want to be able to get some decent traffic. There is so much to set up and build on that I need direction. I have been creating a schedule for everything that I need to do so that I can make money and build financial freedom. I know you are probably wondering how long this will take. I am too. This is harder than I think, but I am appreciating the learning. My biggest project focuses on SFI. Strong Future International is my choice affiliate marketing program that I am building. I think that this will help me be succesful. I am doing plenty of work to get it rolling so if you would like to enter my team under this free opportunity and learn more about what I am doing. Join me at the link below and I will teach you all you need to know.

What Is Danni UpTO?

You obviously want to know, so I will tell you. So, I went to SC for a few weeks for the Warrior Leader Course. Learned plenty of military things that I needed to know. However, on my way back home I checked my messages and the doctor left me a message to call them back. I forgot all about all the blood taken to check for diseases and all before I left for SC. Unfortunately, I have a Vitamin D deficiency. Although this was the only thing that was wrong, I felt a little unsettled. I remember being scared of getting rickets if I didn't get enough vitamin D as a child. As an adult, it can cause a range of illnesses that I don't even want to get into. These illnesses include obesity, which I am terrified of. I don't want to get too thick. I have enough reasons why I am single already, I don't want being fat to be added to that dreadful list. I don't even know what the other reasons are, but I know I would know that one if it was was so. So, I started incorporating sun in my life and I started juicing. I never heard of anyone getting a Vitamin D test but it happened to me. Since they didn't test the other vitamins, I figured that I needed to be proactive and make some dietary changes. I started juicing. I only drink about 12 ounces of freshly juiced, juice a day. I copped the Jack LaLane last year and had this huge project that I never did. Now, I am putting it to use with my trip to the Dekalb Farmer's Market planned out. So far I have been putting together cucumber and spinach juice. Sounds nasty but it is actually refreshing. Plus, I love the smell of cucumbers for some crazy reason. I have a few more recipes that I am not going to share until I try those. I am going to attempt to switch up every few days. I am also going to up how much I drink as well. Too much of anything is not good for the body. Which is why switching fruits and veggies is a must. I also try not to do too many fruits. Its high in sugar and the analysis said my sugar level was normal. This juicing thing is going to kill a few birds with one stone. I am getting healthy and direct vitamins and nutrition each day, its good for weight loss, and it keeps my skin healthy. I have an issue with acne in the summer months and I am hoping this combats that issue completely. Well, that is what Danni is up to.
