2012 Black Girls Rock Profound Quotes




Black Girls Rock Fashion, Beauty,  and Power: One question that is often presented to me  is What Encompasses Beauty?  Over the years I have shared many quotes as what I think defines beauty although, the meaning will vary with each individual woman. Finding the true essence of what defines your style & beauty must come from within. I believe every woman has her defining style whether its through the twinkle in her eye, the fullness of her lips,  the sway in her stride or the strength in her presence. I can walk-up to an individual and compliment her without a second thought that she is competition. We must learn to support each other, as a team, we can be  more effective standing together, than trying to stand alone.  An inspiring moment I look forward to every year is "Black Girls Rock"  as I sit and watch the show, for me its not about color, but the character these women exude should make any woman strive to be and do better.  Each year I have a take away that I share and below is last years.
Black Girls Rock (BGR)
B~Beautifully
G~Gratifying
R~Remembrance
that "WE" Matter...
~Kimberly~

BGR- Inspires me to look deep within the essence of not only myself, but also the power of other women. POWER isn't just about leadership. Understanding that each one of us is in control of turning the power within on. Owning the inner essence of who you are ; who you want to be, and allowing yourself to have a support team that guides you all the way. While dressing-up and getting GLAM is fun, true GLAM is "God Loves Always Magnifies." To view last years Black Girls Rock.


2012 Black Girls Rock Profound Quotes
:
I'm thankful for Beverly Bond, Founder of Black Girls Rock, a former model,  renowned DJ, and now executive producer of an awards show, which is named after her organization, Black Girls Rock!. Black Girls Rock!, Inc is a nonprofit, youth empowerment and mentoring organization that introduces music, poetry and theater to women of color. The annual Black Girl Rock awards aired recently on BET  Co-Hosting for a second time were, Tracee Ellis Ross and Regina King.

As Beverly Bond continues to  bring such awareness to the forefront of what are some extraordinary, electrifying, and amazing women in our country. The essence of education and the background these woman exude is priceless, definitely  footsteps any woman would strive to walk in. This year after viewing the awards show I took away various profound quotes from the honorees. Although, many were shared two stood out for me that left a lasting imprint in my heart.




Janelle Monae, Face of COVERGIRL, and Singer
 
"Embrace what is unique even if it makes others uncomfortable."


 










 
Alicia Keys, Singer, Actress, Producer, Wife, and Mother

ASK KIMBERLY...Loving Two Whats a Girl to Do?





 

Q: Dear Kimberly
I'm a single woman currently dating two men, which I'm enjoying the company of both. Is it possible to be in love with two people at the same time?


Anomalously Dating Plus 1


A: That's a great question to ask, I'm sure you feel tide between the two of them. While you may have feelings for both of the men, that's  a very strong statement to make that you think you love them both. What you're feeling may be a combination of attraction mixed with confusion because you aren't allowing yourself to be connected to just one. Trying to balance two relationships at the same time ones emotions can easily get misconstrued for something stronger, and in the end not a fair trade to yourself or the gentlemen.  I recommend taking an assessment of your real feelings by writing  five reasons for each on why you love them. I want you to truly take sometime to come up with five answers of substance verses surface. I.e: Martin is attractive. (That's a surface answer, not substance). Get down to the core of character qualities. Upon completion, please follow these 3 Steps  (1) Read once. (2) After reading place aside for three or more days, but no longer than five.  (3)  On day three re-visit your answers. I guarantee you once you place your thoughts on paper  things will become crystal clear.


Many think love is a feeling, however its an action that requires the 3C's: Character, Communication, and  Commitment. The 3C's require participation by two and UN-balanced if only one is contributing.  Try to get pass what you're feeling, because  that is clouding your judgment. Things that make us feel good aren't necessarily good for us, take the emotions out of it so you understand what the true feelings are for both gentlemen. After all is said and done and you still have strong feelings for both, the next step is be honest with both men, as  they should have the option to decide if they want to continue dating you as well. Many are confused by the word dating; the definition has  different meaning for many. Keep in mind both guys may very well know that you're seeing them both, but on the other hand they may not. These goes back to the 3C's "Character" is important in a relationship, if you have none, you can't expect to receive it in return.
