My husband and I are two different races. We have been fortunate enough to avoid racism in public, but I haven't met any of his extended family, because I am black. They have all met our daughter and couldn't stop raving about her...

litebrite87 I agree. My mother-in-law responded similarly stating that she was only concerned about what other people would think. I think that real problem is fear. If more people would stop worrying about what others would think then there would be much less room for...

litebrite87 I really didn't want it to come to this, so I'm still hoping that things turn around. The funny part is that they have a lot of misconceptions about blacks that they have admitted to knowing aren't true, and that I completely break. They would rahter have...

litebrite87 I also live in the south, North Carolina to be exact, but I had never encountered racism that was this blatant before. I'm actually from mixed heritage myself, I come from; black, West Indian, Catawba, French, Danish, and Scott-Irish heritage, so I don't...

litebrite87 I find it so strange that people get so caught in what was standard in their day, even if they know it's wrong. It would be just a ridiculous for me to say that it's okay for adolescents to have type 2 diabetes, because when I was younger their was and...

I'm more on the quiet side, but I've made myself louder to make my husband happy. You would expect for everyone to moan a lot when you watch TV, but we all know that it isn't so. So, are you quiet or loud?

litebrite87 A part of me has always thought of just letting loose and being as loud as I want to be, but I'm too shy and quiet by nature.

litebrite87 Yeah, I'm the same exact way, and my husband thought there was something wrong when we were dating.

Before my husband and I got married we both made sure that there was nothing big about ourselves that the other one didn't already know. We both agreed that we already knew the important stuff after going over our own mental...

litebrite87 I accepted what he told me and it never changed my view of him as a person, but I do see how some people back out of relationships when they learn something that they didn't expect. I took a vow and as long as he doesn't prove to be someone different than I...

I have recently begun making crafts in hopes of earning an extra income by selling them to local stores and at craft shows. I know that the craft show market is very straight forward, but selling my creations to local businesses...

litebrite87 Thanks for the information. I never thought about stores paying me after the items sold. I would definately need to have the money upfronts, so, I'll try sticking with craft fairs and online stores.
