“ I love religion and have contemplated going back to school to get a world religion degree. ”
I grew up in a neighborhood in Baltimore that was like a war zone, so I never learned to trust that there were people who could help me.
~ Jada Pinkett Smith
My belief is that communication is the best way to create strong relationships.
We have to nurture our young women and understand the beauty and the strength of being a woman. It's kind of a catch-22: Strength in women isn't appreciated, and vulnerability in women isn't appreciated. It's like, 'What the hell do you do?' What you do is you don't allow anyone to dictate who you are.
Here's the thing, men have to also mature in how they see women, too. Because they need to understand that it's not just about how we look, it's about who we are. And I am going to tell you like this, 'If you can't love me with short hair, and you telling me I got to have long hair to be loved, guess what, I ain't the one for you.'
