I Do Not Fear Death

-
So if anyone has seen The Return of The King, the epic climax to the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, will know where I got my title from. I was uncertain about the future last night and watched the film for inspiration. We are in dire times. There are revolutions in North Africa and the Middle East. Every time you turn on the news it seems that there is a natural disaster to report. Now there is a man claiming the world will come to an end on May 21, 2011. As I write this blog post it is already May 22 in several nations. So I do not know what he meant by that. The whole end of the world talk has got me thinking. What have I done with my life? If today was the end, would I leave the world in peace or would I leave with regret? The truth is I would be one tortured soul. There are so many things I want to do. So many places I want to visit. I have not really lived my life to its full potential.  The best thing that came out of this whole judgement day is that I want to live. I feel like I have been a fly stuck on a spider web just wasting away. Just waiting until it was time for the spider to consume me. Now I am fighting my way through the web. I would do whatever it takes to live my life to the fullest.I want to dance in the rain not wait until the sun emerges from the clouds. I want to be as free as a horses mane.  I want to create my own luck and even if I fail I know that I gave it my all. So I am releasing positive vibes in the year of 2011, this is my year. This is the year I live in the now not waiting for things. Who knows what tomorrow will bring? I only know what is waiting for me today. I am not going to look back at yesterday dreaming about what could have been. If it was meant to be it  would have happened. I do not fear death. Just like my heroes Aragorn and Eowyn.

Few months ago I posted my first Feminist Wednesday video. Feminist Wednesday is a day I celebrate a female artist who makes me proud to be a female. Today I am celebrating the magnificent P!nk.

Here for your viewing pleasure is the powerful video for her second single off The   Truth about Love.

The List: The Sexiest Men 2013 Edition

-

It is becoming a little bit of a tradition here on Confessions that during the month of love I unveil my list of men that continue to rock my world. Considering how successful my last list was the only responsible thing for me to do is officially declare that this tradition will live on. If you are curious to see how last year's list differed from this year here it is  My Little Valentines . This year my list is a little different. First of all, it did not feel right to narrow it down to 100. So below you will see a list composed of 110 men. I have included men that not only I find incredibly good looking but men that have enamored me with their talent and their wit. My list is in alphabetical order besides my top ten. If there is an asterisk behind their name that means they are newbies to the list. Let me know who you think is incredibly good looking.

What Can You Do Now?

-
This past week has been a dark chapter in American history. Over 100,000 American lives were lost to COVID-19.  On Memorial Day, in the city of Minneapolis George Floyd was murdered by four police officers. His death sparked a nation wide outrage. If you would like to know the ways you can support the movement please take a look at this website.  https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/#   It will give you ways you can help. You can sign petitions, donate, find contact information for officials in Minneapolis and find out ways to participate in peaceful protests.  This would also be a good time to register to vote, if you have not done so already. Besides remaining informed, I would advise you all to take care of your health during this difficult time. Make sure you take time to remain both physically and mentally strong.  Keep yourself hydrated. Take your vitamins. Meditate. Pray. Find ways to find joy. It is also a good time to reach out to love ones.  Be safe and be kind to yourself.
