The Story of a Truly Black Girl
By venuschicc BRONZE
Los Angeles, California

This young black girl doesn’t have the walk down, Talks with a frown and hopes rumors don’t go around About the burnt skin she’s in, thick lips that cover her grin, huge thighs...

Favorite Quote:
I have studied many times<br /> The marble which was chiseled for me&mdash;<br /> A boat with a furled sail at rest in a harbor.<br /> In truth it pictures not my destination<br /> But my life.<br /> For love was offered me and I shrank from its disillusionment;<br /> Sorrow knocked at my door, but I was afraid;<br /> Ambition called to me, but I dreaded the chances.<br /> Yet all the while I hungered for meaning in my life.<br /> And now I know that we must lift the sail<br /> And catch the winds of destiny<br /> Wherever they drive the boat.<br /> To put meaning in one&rsquo;s life may end in madness,<br /> But life without meaning is the torture<br /> Of restlessness and vague desire&mdash;<br /> It is a boat longing for the sea and yet afraid.<br /> <br /> -George Grey&#039;s Epitaph by Edgar Lee Masters

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we&#039;ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek. <br /> - Barack Obama (My Cousin did a very great job on this speech he is the 1st black president of the USA)
