Okay

Welcome

It’s nice to have your company..

and I’m happy to share my thoughts with you

We may not always agree, but we can disagree with love for such is the beauty of life.

If I could ask anything of you, it would be that you step outside of what you know, and embrace people from other backgrounds, to try to build genuine friendships that span across the economic and racial divide.

If we want to put an end to isms such as racism, maybe we need to begin closer to home. Reserve judgments and open our minds to new ways of thinking…new ways of being.

It’s not easy breaking with the norm, but it’s worth a try.

I may not know how to be a lot of things..

but I know how to be me.

Enjoy x

About Me

Dawna: As a Writer and Blogger, I have a keen interest in the African Diaspora, Women's rights (with a focus on developing countries) Culture and Politics. I also explore and review music from across the diaspora in my exploration of culture, and expression. Ultimately, my blog is my space to talk about things that matter to me. It's my voice. I'm a Londoner, but I'm also a citizen of the World..as are you. We make this world what it is, for better or for worse.

Something to remember

Because it Matters..

It doesn’t matterIf you don’t have the latest shoes.
Or the newest outfit.
It doesn’t’ matter if you don’t have a car, or own your own home.
It doesn’t matter if you’re not the prettiest, or the most handsome.
Matters not what you weigh - or how tall - or short you are.
It doesn’t matter that you’re not the most popular, Doesn’t matter if you are.
It doesn’t matter if you’ve never been on holiday-Or if you travel frequently every year.
It doesn’t matter if you have the latest phone - note book or kindle-doesn’t matter if you don’t.
It doesn’t matter if you’re the best cook around-Or if you can only cook a few simple dishes.
Matters not if you have little moneyMatters not if you’ve much

What matters is that you understand what it means to love. That you don’t fear it.
That you have felt the pain of disappointment.
But you’re not hostage to it.
That your intuition is aligned And your Ego controlled.
That you’ve learnt to really laugh.
Equally – to cry.
That your values mirror who you are.
That you are a vessel for goodness.
That you have 1 good friend.
That you have learnt to be a friend also.
That gossips have no evidence.
Yet even if – you apologise not - for who you are.
That you emit joy.
That you never rely on hope or luck.
That you’re comfortable with - will – and - is

It matters that you’ve learnt to kiss.
And hold hands without expectation.
That you have danced at least 1 slow dance.
And slept under the stars.
It matters that you’ve walked by the sea - a river or a lake.
Sat on a bench and fed the ducks stale bread.
Helped a pensioner with their shopping.
Or given an unrelated child 10p for candy.

It matters that you laugh every day.
And can still enjoy a children’s cartoon.
There’s no finite list.
Each to their own.
Recognize the beauty in you.
Celebrate it…
The beauty in others
Cherish it

Because it matters
Because you
Matter

Thank you for visting!
