I am bitch and all that come before me

 I am committing to finishing bell hooks this week, I want to start Giovani's Room by James Baldwin. So I am reading bell hooks and it according to me that while I have heard and understood what 'self actualized' means I only know it by my context clues  definition  and not the textbook definition.   Self actualized: means realizing and fulfilling your unique potential, creative abilities and your personal desires. (Coined by Kurt G.) Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a conceptualization of needs  that motivate human behavior. I needed to write this definition because I wanted to talk about what I am reading and I did not want to discuss without knowing what I am talking about.    "Young women want to embrace the "hard bitch" image because it keeps them from having to confront the pain that comes when females are pain that comes when females are punished for choosing to be self-actualized and successful."  What we do think, are we embracing...

Happy almost fall + 30 day challenge + prompt: Write a story that begins with the sentence “The door creaked open, revealing a long-forgotten room.”

     The door creaked open, revealing a long forgotten room. Daisy fans away the almost invisible cobwebs that caught her by surprise. She coughs and fans away the strings attempting to clear her vision. 'Bleh ugh', Daisy shudders as she walks further into the rhombus shaped room. She entered this room against her better judgement not knowing what to expect. She could see the broken shutters allowing small rays of sunlight to seep through highlight the dust particles in the air. Daisy does not what to look for but she knew it would be in here. Her mom always said that her intuition ran on her side of the family. She quietly shut the door, that should not have been open, and carefully crept into the room. 

    Daisy begins to dig through the forgotten papers hoping to find some or any information on her real parents' identity. All she had was fragmented memories and a broken dream. Dust is starting to fly causing her to sneeze three times in a row. Before she had a chance to move onto a part of the attic she hears a jingle at the door.

 I forgot to mention that I have a new therapist appointment on Friday. Additionally, I will write about my therapist session and upload my pics.
