25 THINGS A SISTA SHOULD NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR
|
Posted By: Stacey Larkin on March 11, 2006 1. Never apologize for pursuing what makes you happy. Even if you need to quit your job, transfer schools, or move across country, always do what you really want 2. Never apologize for using proper English. Keeping it real doesn't mean you have to speak Ebonics. 3. Never apologize for giving your best in a relationship that just didn't work out. 4. Never apologize for being successful. Only haters want to keep you at their level. 5. Never apologize for crying. Wear waterproof mascara and express yourself. 6. Never apologize for ten pounds you need to lose. People who truly care about you will accept you as you are. 7. Never apologize for being frugal. Just because you save your money instead of blowing it on the latest fashion emergency doesn't mean you're cheap. 8. Don't apologize for being a single Mom. Babies are a blessing. 9. Never apologize for treating yourself to something special. Sometimes you have to show yourself some appreciation. 10. Never apologize for leaving an abusive relationship. Your safety should always be a priority. 11. Never apologize for keeping the ring even if you did not get married. 12. Never apologize for setting high standards in a relationship. You know what you can tolerate and what simply gets on your nerves. 13. Never apologize for saying NO. 14. Never apologize for wearing a weave or braids. You bought it so it's yours. 15. Never apologize to your new friends about old friends. There's a reason she's been your girl from day one. 16. Never apologize for o ordering dessert! or more than one dessert. 17. Never apologize for dating outside your race. Just because you found Mr. Right across the color line doesn't mean you don't love your brothas. 18. Never apologize for demanding respect. You are to always be treated as a queen. 19. Never apologize for not knowing how to cook. Even if you can't burn like Grandma you know how to order good take out. (Right Girl!) 20. Never apologize for your taste in clothes. It's your style. 21. Never apologize for changing your mind, it is your prerogative. 22. Never apologize for making a decision from your heart, even if others don't agree. You have to live with the consequences not them. 23. Never apologize for making more money than your man, you work hard and you deserve to get paid. 24. Never apologize for being you!
