DEAR BECKY'S WITH THE GOOD HAIR, BEYONCÉ ISN'T THE ISSUE.
As we all know last week Beyoncé made a huge announcement to the world on February 1, 2017. As I was scrolling down my Instagram timeline I saw Beyoncé posing with her hands on her stretched out belly, a veil covering her face, dozens of beautiful floral arrangements behind her with a simple background...and may I just add that the picture she posted was untouched? Beyoncé was even showing off her tiger stripes. Just beautiful. I screamed OMG BEYONCE IS HAVING A BABYYYY! I made my way to my twitter timeline and expressed my happiness for Beyoncé. I just couldn't get over the fact that Beyoncé was expecting, ..especially when I saw that she was supposed to be the headliner of Coachella. Is it safe to say Beyoncé pulled a Janet Jackson on us all? I went back and read that not only was she expecting a baby, but she was expecting twins!!!! Double the blessings, Triple the hearts.
I think we all could agree that we needed our hearts to be filled with some sort of light, with everything that's going on in the world... this wasn't a distraction like "Pokemon Go'' this was an honest joyful moment.
NEGATIVITY CAN'T BRING YOU LIGHT.
The negative things said about Beyoncé never seems to surprise me. First, it was she's a part of the Illuminati. Then, it was she has a sergeant mother for her first-born child BLUE IVY. People even went as far as expressing their negative thoughts on how Beyoncé keeps Blue's hair insisting that she needs her hair done... (I. can't. deal.) Also, on how "FORMATION" is "unfair to white women'' which was actually said by (Tomi Lahren) in response to Tammy outcry with Solange's lyrics ''this sh*t is for us, some sh*t you can't touch".
And now she's not allowed to celebrate the life of her twins? According to the recent blogs, I came across...
GUESS WHAT?
Just like every other human in the world, Beyonce is a human being too. Before her pregnancy with Blue, Beyonce and Jay Z were expecting their first child but Beyonce miscarried in her first trimester.
Miscarriages are the most difficult thing to cope with. You lose faith, you get out of touch with hope, you start feeling like is it something you did wrong that could've caused this. You start thinking what if you can't have children.. it is the MOST SCARIEST THING EVER, believe me. If you are a woman who miscarried or knows someone who has, you know that it's a pretty rough time for you and your significant other and as for the mother, it's a very difficult thing to open up about. This explains why she decided to keep BLUE IVY hidden for as long as she did until she was ready. She revealed her pregnancy with BLUE during her 2011 VMA'S red carpet appearance and if you missed out on that she made sure that we all knew by the end of her "Love On Top" performance later on that night.
We live in such scary times.. where if you don't show off your love life, or your child(ren) on social media it isn't real, or it goes into questioning. You become ''The Boy Who Cried Wolf'' no one believes you. Personally, what I really love about Beyoncè and Jay is that they have a private life and they choose what they want to put out into the world which is beautiful, and unexpected.
LASTLY, BEYONCÉ ISN'T THE ISSUE.
One of the writers who decided to respond to Beyonce's announcement compared her life to Beyoncé's (which is a problem itself, if you look back at my previous post.) She expressed that she was "annoyed" by Beyoncé's announcement simply because it wasn't her celebrating....Later she then spoke about her miscarriage experience and that for others announcing their pregnancy on social media can hurt others. I don't think she understands where Beyoncé joy came from, or the fact that Beyoncé had a miscarriage too. That's like telling someone they can't announce their enagagment because you went through a divorce. You have to BE HAPPY for others regardless of your situation. Stay positive and don't compare yourself to others because you will only hurt yourself by doing that. When you are happy for others it's a rewarding feeling "consciously". Beyoncé isn't the issue, stop comparing yourself to her or any other people you see on social media. You can't be so deep into someone's life that you can't be happy for them just because it's not happening to you, that's just not normal. GO LIVE YOUR LIFE, THERE'S MUCH MORE THINGS BEAUTIFUL THAN BEYONCÉ OUT THERE.
