“You just have to be careful because social media can begin to affect personal things such as relationships, just to pin point. People have become so entitled as it relates to social media.”

I do everything I can on a daily basis just so I can have something to give back to the world.

I’ve had people question my “integrity” based off of something I didn’t post on social media, the list goes on. It’s mind boggling.

I think I unknowingly seek people who are better than me in the sense of strength and wisdom. It’s like I’ve got to know and trust that you have the answers and that you can carry me if needed.

If your not broadcasting how much you love your boyfriend or husband via social media, problems occur in the home and I really think this is happening more than we acknowledge.

My family has always had Cape Verdean pride but I don’t think it was something the kids in the family necessarily understood.

My friends are a crayola box. They highlight different colors of my being, representing different aspects of my personalty, I’ve noticed.

I acknowledge my beauty and my flaws, I do my best to keep it one hundred with the woman in the mirror so making friends is actually easy.

Some people love what money can do and therefore would do anything to get it, they love the power, they chase it, while others understand what money can do.

I would still be breathing if all my money disappeared tomorrow.

I just simply believe in having purposeful relations, period. That’s what its about at the end of the day.

I think the world should be represented on television and for the longest its been limited.

I don’t admire how much a person has, I admire what a person does with what they have and I think that defines you most.

However, I do appreciate people that are individualistic, mainly because I’m an impressionable soul and my friends become my big sisters and brothers in a way.

Given that this was all at a tender age, I imagine I was very impressionable.

It’s always funny to me when people meet me. They really think I’m from the East coast off top. When they get to talkin’ to me, they go “Oh no, she’s sooooo Southern”

People want everything quick and now. We live in the age of social media and hyper digital.

Be careful of love. It’ll twist your brain around and leave you thinking up is down and right is wrong.

I have always paid careful attention to social and economic conflicts, to the dialectic – if we can call it that – between high and low. Maybe it’s because I was not born or brought up in affluence.

If I should certainly say to a novice, ‘Write from experience and experience only,’ I should feel that this was rather a tantalizing monition if I were not careful immediately to add, ‘Try to be one of the people on whom nothing is lost.’

Anyone who reaches for great expression has to be careful of the ridiculous.

Damn the great executives, the men of measured merriment, damn the men with careful smiles, damn the men that run the shops, oh, damn their measured merriment.

I don’t take anything personal. I just have a certain file in my head, so Earthlings must be careful with what they say.

I’ve been very careful to always make clear that I am a real person. That’s why I’m on social media a lot.

Glass breaks so easily. No matter how careful you are.
