re-invention
I am on a journey of living the life I have always dreamed!!!
I guess you could say it’s my ‘bucket list’.
I’m only 36, but I do have cancer and qualify for all of the things the government gives old people, so….yeah….I have a ‘bucket list’!
I am ‘RE’…I love that little prefix…’RE’-inventing my life.
Like a new birth, I have been ’spanked’ to awareness.
All around me, are other human beings going through hell and then making changes in their life for the better.
I would like to talk about these people I notice.
Some are personal friends and some are celebrities.
Today, I will talk about my “If I were a lesbian” crush, Rihanna.
Here’s a woman, in the spotlight everyday, dating an ass, who was also in the spotlight everyday.
News of domestic abuse from said ‘ass’, whose name I refuse to mention, surfaces all over the tabloids and entertainment channels.
Now, 3 or 4 years ago, if that had been me, I would have been sucking my thumb in fetal position for 6 months. I would have been ashamed, embarrassed, worried of what others might think.
But now, I will take a lesson from Rihanna, who has re-invented her life since that dreadful day.
Rihanna did not hide under a rock.
She made sure justice was served, and then she held her chin high and rolled on with her life.
I am inspired by her courage, her strength, her awesomeness, her ability to kick some ‘ass’ with her music.
I hope you are too!
