I know that I wasn't suppose to be this talkative this September but I have to get this off my chest. First, let's look at the Spiritual side of current events. All last week astrologers were warning to the point of b!tching about this week's stars. According to them six planets were all going to oppose Uranus which is the planet of innovation and more importantly surprises. Adding fire to the mix is that one of those six planets is Mercury which is now in retrograde. Now if you have read this blog before you know that I am not a fan of this aspect but I have always encouraged people to learn from these retrograde periods. All that said... WHAT THE F@CK HAPPENED THIS WEEK?!?!
M.J. starts off dissing all his former sports colleagues and his own children (ouch)!!! Then Serena has a major breakdown on the courts. Yeah, it was a stupid call but when you are at the top of your profession there will always be idiots who want to take you down... The key is to not give them the chance or a moment of satisfaction. Finally, there's Kanye. He's done this before but being spoiled and feeling self-entitled can backfire. Taylor Swift is just a little White girl and when you take that moment away from her at the awards let's be real... She may not get that chance again. Remember that in this industry "Here today, gone tomorrow." is not as real as 'Here today, gone TODAY!" because things move very fast and your 15 minutes may just be 5 in the big scheme of things. Please Black Celebs hold it together not just for yourselves but your peeps, too!
Do you want to know what is really scary? All these celebs have some connection to Chicago. Having lived in Chicago in my youth I saw the dark side of that town and I know that being a celebrity in that area must be very stressful. Okay. Nothing is quite as bad as being poor and surrounded by wealth but there is always that potential to rise and for many of these celebs being at the top and maintaining must be taxing both mentally, physically, and spiritually. So for everyone reading this blog be mindful of some of the pressures that those in the spotlight have to face and give them a break. Maintaining a high profile life for all its benefits must suck at times so when you see these folks stop looking for an angle because the stars (both in the sky and on the ground) may have a surprise for you!
