Sistas R Doing It 4 Themselves...Right?


Urgent Please read....... This is deep!!!!

Okay so I walk in and you see me. You see that my hair is done, my
outfit is fierce and I carry myself like a lady. I smile at you but you roll your
eyes at me, then, turn your head and whisper something to your girl.

Why you hatin'?

Okay... so maybe I'm a new employee and this is my first day at work. I
almost thought I would be the only sista in the joint until someone introduced
us to one another. I smile and extend my hand, happy to know I won't be here
alone. You smile and shake my hand but there's insincerity in your eyes
and your hand is limp. You seem guarded. What's wrong girlfriend?

Okay ...so maybe my man and I have been having problems. And since you've
been my best friend for years I confide in you that I think he's cheating on
me. You offer your support. Until I find out that he's been cheating on
me....with you! Why would you hurt me like that? I found your knife girl.....it's in my back.

As women we battle daily. We battle keeping our families together,
keeping our men happy and maintaining our presence in the workforce. With all
the other battling going on why in the world should we have to battle each other?

Now I'm not saying every sista has a knife...but some of you do....and you know who you are.
Why is it that a woman can't get her glamour on without you
having a problem from another woman?

Why can't I get a blonde weave without you having something to say?
If I'm working myself to death in the office trying to
climb the corporate ladder...why am I suddenly a sellout?

If I leave the room for a minute why can't I trust you around my man?
Smiling in my face, but gossiping all my personal business behind my back? .... you now have permission to consider yourself triflin'!

Inferiority Complex....It makes us feel that in order to be someone
special we have to put everyone else beneath us. Are we so insecure in ourselves that we can't feel good until we pull someone else down? There's something wrong here. We've come to envy those who've accomplished things in their lives what we've only dreamed of having for ourselves. And when we fear we will never be able to get what we want - we steal it.

There is a serious self-worth issue going on here. We're in a day and
age where we should be encouraging each other and holding each other up.
Sisterhood should not end when Oprah goes off. Truth be told, there will
always be someone prettier, sexier, stronger, and smarter.


I'm sorry Boo that's just the way it is. But that's ok.....just be happy with how God made you. I don't care how good Beyonce' looks - if she walks into the same room
I'm in, it doesn't make me any less of the diva I already am!

I love admiring nice hairstyles...but there's no need to be jealous. Honey, now a days there's
enough hair for err-body. I have goals in life. There are things I strive to
attain. Yet I seek out successful sisters because they keep me motivated.

Life is so much more than who looks the best, who dresses the best and
who makes more money. So When you see your sister going for hers let it inspire you.

Dee-Dee that was deep, but so true! Because of all of the things you said, I have mostly men friends. I have 2 girlfriends and we have been since elementary school, so that is why we are tight other than that I wouldn't have any. Grul you done your thing with this post!

Good read! A lot of women should take this post seriously. I guess everyone need to accept themselves and the others, everyone can't all be the same.

Speak!! You ain't neva lying. We as women should lift each other up instead of tearing each other down. The things you spoke of in this post is why many women don't have female friends.

Great post Dee~Dee!

It is sad that women can't get along. What is wrong with the majority of us. We should be upholding each other and supporting folks dreams. Naw we have to be envious and devious. Will this ever change? Deep stuff,,

I really enjoyed reading your post. The very same haterd from females I've been expierencing every since grade school. I've always tried to surrond myself around males. Now days these brothers be acting just like these females. I found out that some men are intimidated by my lifestyle. They need to step their game up.
