Medicine No Man Wants To Taste

Think about your daughter, mother, sister, auntie, and grandmother.

Ok, let me set this straight. Most men have had some point and time where we thought about women in inappropriate ways. We have thought about having sex with multiple women. What I mean by "we" is men as a whole. Vice versa, women have some of those same thoughts. Don't get me wrong, sex is a natural God giving gift to marriage and it's nothing wrong with it in marriage. Notice that I said "marriage." I don't believe in compromising sin. But that's a topic within it's self. Not only have we had thoughts about it, but some of us have actually done it. Some men use women to take of care of us. Some of us have women cooking for us, washing our laundry, providing a place for us to sleep, and giving us money. Notice that I said "some" because it's not all of us who are dogging women. Some of us beat on our women and called them all kinds of names because of jealousy, insecurities, and etc. I'm 22 years old and I've never experienced nothing that i'm talking about. On the other hand, I have had some dirty thoughts before and I sill do sometimes. I'm not all that experienced when it comes to women, but that's also a topic of it's own. A lot of men have made the mistake of telling a woman "I love you" and not really meaning it or not showing it. It seems to be fun while we're doing it, but have we thought about the women in our own families? Men, have we thought about our own daughters or unborn daughters? Have we thought about our younger sister(s)? How would we feel if our daughters, sisters, aunties, mothers, cousins, or even grandmothers come to us crying because a man stole from them, raped them, cheated on them, or beat on them? Things change when you are the victim or on the defending end. Yesterday, I was on my school's campus with two of my friends. One of my friends came out and said, "you know we're going to change the way way we think about women when we have daughters and even before." He also said that if I had younger sisters then i'll be more like him(referring to me). This is just something to think about. You may have to taste your own medicine one day and I promise you that it won't taste good won't taste good at all.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
