When was the last time you heard that statement, have you ever wondered why anyone would say it?
Seems like a juvenile statement, doesn’t it?
But when you think of it, it is quite powerful, so what!
Earlier this year a talk show host had to use it to tell the world, basically, to hell with you, and what you think, SO WHAT.
Unfortunately society and the body of people that live in it strike against people when they don’t fit in that slot that they place out there for every body to fit in. You know the slots. The slot of being too fat or being too thin. The slot of dating a younger man or being gay.
The slot of not being the right color or gender for the right job. The slot of being called a b**** if you are too aggressive for a job or stand up for what you believe in…
The slot of not having the right hair style /texture/ length or even color.
Ladies, beautiful women, you know what we say to this, SOOOO WHAT. Yeah I am fat, so what, yes I love younger men so what, yes I drink a glass of wine with my lunch and dinner too, SOOO WHAT!
Yes we will not fit in the slots of society, we will be who we are strong, proud, ambitious, supportive, beautiful women of different backgrounds and color, and do what we please as long as we do not hurt anyone.
For those who don’t like it guess what we say ………..

Here's my glass of White Wine, cheese and crackers to you! You are so right....so many people have slots for YOU to fit in and who said that God is on the track that everyone else including yourself is ON! Because sometimes we can put our selves in one of those slots to find our the pressure is coming from within, and not always outside source.....
