Cee-Lo's new song

Dear world,

I have been given a lovely gift that I would like to bestow upon you. If you have ever had a relationship go bad, or just plain didn't like someone...

The this song is for you! This is Cee-Lo Green's new song. (BEWARE - THIS SONG CONTAINS FOUL LANGUAGE, LISTEN AT YOUR OWN RISK)

Voila!



I love this song, but also, I LOVE THIS VIDEO! I love the simplicity of it and I love how the song becomes etched into your brain. I also love the smaller asides of the song, the ooo, ooo, ooos etc.

This made me smile today, and I hope it makes you.

Anyone else want to contribute a song, or anything else that made them happy today?

It's Friday!

So, as if that wasn't positive enough for us, I've had a great day so far. I hope you all are too!

If not, then watch this



It is hilarious! I bet you laugh! BTW, I very much believe that you decide your fate by deciding to be positive or to be negative. Please, see that silver lining. It's a beautiful world that we live in, and every breath we take is precious, because it is not promised to us.

Happy Weekend Guys!

Fat, Beautiful Super Model

While I love plus size clothing becoming more and more available. I HATE that they put the clothes on skinny girls. You're a size 10 or 12? You aren't fat! You aren't even "plus size"

But this:




is Velvet d'Amour. She is a plus size supermodel. She is a size 26/28! That is a real life fat girl, walking down the runway for John Galliano and Jean Paul Gaultier. She's also 39 years old. Let's all bow to beautiful women who are not teenagers and who have a variety of shapes, up to and including no doubt about it fat!

Here she is rocking lingerie on the runway in Paris, you know...just another day at work...

In a magazine layout:

One last one:



So? What do you think? Sometimes as a bigger than your average bear kinda girl, I can think yeah, chubby girls are cute...but I'm not chubby.

Neither is Velvet, and she's gorgeous, and full of rolls and and cellulite and all the stuff that "they" say we aren't supposed to have, or love.

This made me happy today, what made you happy?

Please Email me with pics, videos, or even just a note of what made you happy. It doesn't have to be body positive, it can be anything!

Inaugrural Post

My intention with this blog, is to bring some joy into your life. Hopefully, eventually, throughout the day. I want to fight the negativity that we are bombarded with happiness, joy, and love. I want to get others to share what makes them happy, so we can all get a taste. I'd also like to get people to post pics of themselves, so we can see the beautiful variety that the human body gives us. For those of us who have been told that we are too fat, too skinny, too short, too tall, too dark, light, blond, hairy, whatever! You are beautiful! I am beautiful. I would love to build a community of love and acceptance for all.

I'll go first...


I love this picture, because I'd just gotten my hair cut and I had a dress, makeup and jewelry on! I felt good, and got lots of compliments. It was a good day.
