Truth is… We hide because we want to be found… We walk… because we want to see whose willing to walk behind us….

Truth is… We hide because we want to be found… We walk… because we want to see whose willing to walk behind us…. We talk because we are really just trying to see who is really paying attention, but the real question I want to pose is why do we do so many things in hopes to see what others are going to do in response?

Isn’t that what many professions are based off of? You are basing your entire life off of other people, if other people are going to buy your products, if other people are going to watch your shows, if other people are going to do this, if other people are going to be interested in that, and you wonder why people say that we MUST be humble. Humbleness is something that has slowly become lost in society because people are forgetting that you HAVE to depend on other people for SOMETHING, that there is NOTHING you can do alone, absolutely nothing.

Let’s think logically for a moment, you can hate people with absolutely every fiber of your being but you are going to need people for something, some part of your every day life is going to depend on a person doing their job, some part of your money intake is going to depend on a person, you will not survive in the world without another living soul… that thought is not the best thought right…. but it’s true….

Humble is defined as having or showing a modest or low estimate of one’s own importance. Humility is important…. I leave you with this… know how to deal with people. Know your worth ALWAYS. Know your value, and NEVER allow it to be taken advantage of…. BUT ALWAYS… ALWAYS remain humble… because the same people you are “walking over” or claiming you’ll NEVER need… you just might. Have an amazing day my readers 🙂

The -F Word *covers mouth dramatically*

Yes! Two posts in one day! Who knows… it may be three. I keep trying to convince you guys I’m not in control of my thoughts. Well now I want to keep it simple and discuss…. feminism. *gasps* yes. the -F word that sends trembles through even the strongest people, but that’s where people have it confused. People equate feminism with man hating, she women who think that we can lift cars and fly or some other super human insane things.

Okay well if I put enough thought into it… I’m sure I could, but come on people! Feminism is simply believing EVERY person is equal regardless of race, gender, sexuality, etc. Although many believe that will never be possible… if we STOPPED thinking in terms of outward appearances maybe it could be. The same goes for women. We can’t one day say “I’m a woman treat me equal”, and then the next say “I’m a woman, treat me as such” Sorry I’m all for contradictions, but let’s put that one back in the top drawer and close it back, lock it, flush the key, and never go look for it again.

Feminism is not about hating men. In fact I appreciate our men. I appreciate what they do for us. I completely agree we should be equal across ALL spectrums but I must say I appreciate my black men for raising black women to believe they are just as equal as every other woman because society does not equate them as such.

Now, next time you drop the -F bomb… let’s not picture “she-man men haters” but let’s picture everybody of all races, genders, and sexualities holding hands and singing kumbuyah! Pretty nice image right??

Until next time guys 🙂 Nikki Ouuuuuut 🙂

A Mash-Up of Hello’s!

Hello there!

My name is Kwanesia (Qu-Knee-See-Ah), but I’m affectionately called Nikki or Nesi by those closest to me. You probably scrolled past my blog in lieu of something else, but I hope *crosses fingers* I will not disappoint you. Of course every blog’s first post is an introduction of the blogger correct? Well I’m going to try and knock that out of the way and get to the many purposes behind this blog here.

So besides my name I haven’t given you much to go on huh? I’m currently a 21 year old senior at Valdosta State University. I’m getting my Bachelors in Speech Communication with an emphasis in Public Relations. I graduate May 9, 2015 I honestly love everything about my major and I grow to love it more every single day. I’m a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Incorporated and have been since April 5, 2013.

Personality wise, I’m an optimist. The definition of one. I see the best in everyone, and I think that’s a great thing! I know that everyone has way more good in them than bad, some just have a harder time tapping into it than others. I also pride myself on being a feminist, and pro-equal rights. Men before you go clicking pages on me, feminism does not mean man hating, it means having the exact same rights. I’ll surely touch on the topic more in future blog posts!

I’m a 6’2 plus size woman, which brings me to the title of Through Amazon Living Lens, or TALL. Now I pride myself on being confident with my size and not worrying about what anyone says about me. Anyone who sees me sees a smile on my face at least 98% of the time! I’m a lover of inspirational quotes and poetry, some of which I’m also sure I’ll be sharing from time to time!

Now the purpose behind this blog. WHEW! Let’s see… I am an opinionated woman. That might even be an understatement. I am starting this blog to state my opinions on things going on in the world from entertainment, to education, to fashion, to sports. A good bit of what I will base that on however is the image that it portrays. I am a strong believer in the fact that the media plays a huge role in the way that people think especially in the minds of generation Y. When I refer to the media that means TV, radio, books, and even social media.

It may be controversial to some, but I hope that you’ll comment and that the discussions can begin!! I love hearing opinions from others especially all over the world.

Thank you again for looking at things Through Amazon Living Lens…. and joining me as I build my brand…. one smile at a time!
