"Hey beautiful" he says. Said beauty looks around, sees she's alone and still asks "who me"?.Guess this beauty didn't come with brains. Where is that woman who would answer yes to that question without being called presumptuous?
I went to the market the other day. Please wipe that image of tomatoes in crates and fresh flowers in a vase by the counter. Real Nigerian market!I usually sit in the car so I was sort of mortified at somethings.
I was standing in the frozen foods section(putting it nicely)trying to avoid looking at all the dead goats that seemed to be staring at me when I saw her. No she wasn't light skinned.Wake up! Light skinned girls aren't necessarily pretty.She was the Color of the earth. A Shade darker than clay.She wasn't smiling but she lit up the space around her. She wasn't wearing makeup.She was beautiful.
The modern idea of beautiful is red or pink lips, hair that flows down to your waist, red talons,false eyelashes and pink cheeks. There's nothing wrong with improvement,when they become enhancements there's a problem.
The mantra of "you are all beautiful in your own way" has been sung so much but its true. That supermodel probably wishes she had your bum or your eyes or your hair that curls up in the rain. There's nothing wrong with admiring other women as llong as you know the woman in the mirror is who you should admire most.Beautiful is you and you and you
