Have you ever wondered what sort of income it takes to live the life of some folks you follow on social media. Some folks travel a lot and that’s gotta be expensive with airfare, hotel, eating at restaurants. My bank account couldn’t do that. Some folks seem to employ a photographer for their Instagram photos because they look great. It’s amazing to see folks living the life that some dream about and wish they could afford.
Happy Friday My Peeps
Even though it was a short week for me it was a productive week. Regardless I’m still happy it’s Friday. Have a swell day my friends.
Quote Of The Day
You don’t have to say anything to the haters. You don’t have to acknowledge them at all. You just wake up every morning and be the best you you can be. And that tends to shut them up… Michelle Obama
Tarnished Icons
Bill Cosby was found guilty of 3 counts of sexual assault. Bill Cosby is also an American entertainment icon who was an influencer and noted citizen, now he faces prison. He like others who are icon’s of culture and have been accused or found guilty of abuse face a new life where they are tarnished and their legend is now a shell of what it once was.
The #MeToo movement has heightened the level of accountability and bringing situations to light that previously were hidden and cloaked. Today one of the great entertainers of our time faces time in prison. Just imagine how many others have gotten away with things because of fear or intimidation.
No woman should face any situation where they are made to feel intimidated, scared or assaulted. Powerful men have taken advantage of their situation for way too long. It’s truly a shame that the Cosby’s of the world have previously gotten away with such behavior.
Tarnished icons, famous people, powerful people are now on notice and for all who have faced a dangerous world maybe things are going to get better.
