I have this thing with beauty @eatyarncake - Tumblr Blog

Reading a book newly published, written by my dear friend Eleanor, and I come upon this quote: “the regular taking hold of the pen” and I think it is beautiful. The words were written by Eleanor’s great-great-grandfather in the 1850s and refer to his keeping a journal. His diary entries were his means of practicing the art of writing as well as a way to record events and hold on to memories. I love reading the journals of others, and seeing the different purposes the writing served. To think that this man, A.J. Smith, made the time in his amazingly busy life to record his thoughts, ideas, actions, and details of his daily life inspires me. I, too, must find the time to write. His journals, now, all these years later, are being read and used to tell a larger story - they have become a tool for the historian, researcher, and writer. Yet his story, told in words sometimes meager, often eloquent and poetic, in and of itself is important. He existed. He lived. He thought and felt emotions and did things. He wrote about it. My own journals pile up, collect dust. What will become of them in a hundred, two hundred years?

So this happened!!!! I’ve been going back and foward in my mind regarding how to deal with it! This was some random person I don’t even kno who took a picture of me and my daughter from my blog in order to bash the way I dressed! The part that make me most upset is the fact that he had her in the picture when the very next picture in the series was me by myself with the same outfit on! He could have even cropped her out if all else failed! I messaged him and asked him to remove her and he refused and began to chastise me for my choose of clothing! “NO MAN SHOULD EVER WEAR FLOWERS!”, he explain! And look I have absolutely no issue with you not liking what I wear! I will always say, fashion in many ways is an expression of SELF! Because everybody is not the same everybody surly won’t dress the same nor like the same things! Without that fact the world would probably stop turning round! But I will say this folks…. DON’T LET ANYBODY BULLY YOU INTO CONFORMING INTO WHAT THEY DEEM ACCEPTABLE WHEN IT COMES TO FASHION! DON’T ALLOW THEIR BASIC, CLOSE MINDEDNESS DILUTE HOW YOU WANT THE WORLD TO SEE YOU!!! WEAR WHAT YOU LOVE AND BE DAMNED TO HELL ANYBODY WHO DOESN’T LIKE IT! IT’S NOT ABOUT THEM!!!!!! IT’S ABOUT YOU! I lived that way for way too long! Not wearing what I wanted because I was afraid of what people might say! It’s a horible place to find yourself! I WILL NEVER GO BACK!!!! So steal my pictures, spread the around the internet, say horrible things about me, it may hurt but I won’t die! And it could never feel as bad as I did when i was hiding who I was to make other people feel comfortable!!
