Hip Hop Quote Of The Day: DMX

“It’s so hard to stay sucka free in a world full of lollipops”

-DMX

DMX might be known for being crazy but he will always be one of the greatest MC’s in Hip Hop. This quote is one of my favorites because it discusses the problems with our generation. People need to stop following these lollipops and live their lives for themselves. I refuse to be mediocre and I will always be true to myself. Why? Because I respect the real in me and I refuse to get sucked by these vultures. How do people just let other people control their lives and use them? Is that the price we have to pay for the good life? If that’s so well I guess I’ll never live be able to live that life.

Stand up for something or sit down and be licked.

Peace.. Soul.. And Flava

LeonaLee’s Diary: Keep Wasting Your Time

20121215-154501.jpg

Ever since I’ve turned 21 in November i’ve been tripping out on how much time I have till I’m 30. Yea I know 30 really is not that old but I have set goals that I plan to reach by that age and I am not on track.I started realizing the time I had to watch stupid reality shows, post numerous tweets on twitter and browse photos on instagram was killing my hustle. Now I am a true “hustlette” but sometimes a lady can loose her way. The world has us so distracted with things that are killing our brain power, but we don’t really care.

I know this is a tired quote but “time waits for no man”. Bill Gates can have all the money in the world but he still can’t buy time and death isn’t to picky of its prey. 20 innocent children died yesterday, children who hadn’t even really lived their lives yet and you think it won’t happen to you? I’m disappointed that it took a devastating tragedy for people to wake up but then again I’m pretty sure people are still sleep. When more people realize that time is more of an enemy maybe some progress will start.

Im not going to keep on preaching to yall because I’m not a preacher nor am I going to keep writing because I know ya’ll don’t read. To the ones who are feeling just like me, lets work on being more productive with our time. Let’s read more, let’s work more, let us inspire our children, and most importantly let’s work on ourselves!!!

I feel like Oprah with all of the inspirational quotes but even if I inspire one person than I am satisfied. To those who continue to not care, that’s cool,
Just Keep wasting your time…..

Quotes Of The Day: Obama x DNC 2012

“Now I won’t pretend the path I’m offering is quick or easy. I never have. You didn’t elect me to tell you what you wanted to hear. You elected me to tell you the truth. And the truth is, it will take more than a few years for us to solve challenges that have built up over decades.”

There’s no subsitute to the truth either it is or it isn’t. See the truth it needs no prrof either it is or it isn’t. And you know the truth by the way it feels :)

Gotta love Barack Obama.

LeonaLee’s Diary: Get Cha’ Money up Girl!!

Ladies we are always putting our mouths on the next man’s pocket but what about our own? How many of us women tell ourselves and our girlfriends we dont want a man unless he’s paying our bills, getting our nails and our hair done every two weeks.
There are so many women out here waiting for a rich man or a “baller” to save them from their financial set back but newsflash baby girls there are not too many of them left that want a lady with that mentality. Every woman needs a hustle to maintain their lifestyle because nobody is going to look out for you like yourself. Men were made to be our support system but that’s if he is your husband or your father not your boyfriend or your friend with benefits. Instead of looking for money you need to be looking for love because you never know you might just get lucky and get both. So many women have married for love and some of them fell in love eventualy, others are not so lucky. So we all know that cliche quote ” Money cant buy you love” is true.

There are too many of us strong women with so much potential but we lack determination. I’m not saying we shouldn’t let men take care of us but ladies have something for yourself. Guys love a beautiful woman who got her own and not free loading off of other people’s pockets or assets. Golddiggers are not winning any more.

We need more hardworking ladies with a mean ass hustle and a low tolerance for bullshit. There will be a part 2 to this post so stay tuned…

Remember ladies keep your heels high and your standards higher!!!!
Peace..

Quote Of The Day: Sista Souljah

“Those that trust no one usually end up trusting the wrong person”

I love me some Sister Soulja and I plan on doing a post about how she has affected my life.

Our generation is so stuck on not trusting anyone till we forget that we obviously need someone to trust in. We tend to believe that everyone is out to get us but who’s fault is that? Did society teach us to look at our fellow brothers and sisters as enemies? Yes there are vultures out there but we need to lift each other up and stop knocking the next man down.

Be cautious about who you trust and also who you allow to trust in you. Remember the law of attraction? Practice what you preach is so cliche but its the truth. Be loyal and in due time loyal people will attract to you.
