I Believe in Magic (The Magic of Kindness and Love)

Because I wanted to make a set thanking my Polyvore friends for all of their support, love, and kindness. And for their patience as well, so I created this set.

Thank you all for all of your love and support!

I really appreciate it from the bottom of my heart!

I really appreciate all of the comments, the likes, the friendships, the support, etc!

I'm so touched by all of you!

I haven't been able to keep up with all of the activity on here at all! LOL!

And I probably will never be able to catch up on all that I've missed out on.

However, instead of trying to return all of the likes back, I've decided to make dedication sets to say thanks instead. It's just easier for me. 

It will still take some time though.

So please continue to be patient!

I have a list that I'm working from and that list will continue to grow.

If your name is on my list, then a set will be made for you at some point in time.

As I make the dedication sets, I will also be following the people that I make them for back in case I'm not doing so already.

So again, thank you all so much for all of your patience, love, support, and kindness!

I really do appreciate it and it hasn't gone unnoticed! ;)

I hope you are all having a great start for 2015!

And please remember to always spread love and kindness! :)

Love you all from the bottom of my heart,

"Still I Rise" by Maya Angelou (1st Interp)

This set was inspired by one of my favorite poems:

"Still I Rise" by Maya Angelou

Again, I've labeled it as 1st Interp because I may make another set inspired by this poem.

Still I Rise

You may write me down in history

With your bitter, twisted lies,

You may trod me in the very dirt

But still, like dust, I’ll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?

Why are you beset with gloom?

‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells

Pumping in my living room.

Just like moons and like suns,

With the certainty of tides,

Just like hopes springing high,

Still I’ll rise.

Did you want to see me broken?

Bowed head and lowered eyes?

Shoulders falling down like teardrops.

Weakened by my soulful cries.

Does my haughtiness offend you?

Don’t you take it awful hard

‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines

Diggin’ in my own back yard.

You may shoot me with your words,

You may cut me with your eyes,

You may kill me with your hatefulness,

But still, like air, I’ll rise.

Does my sexiness upset you?

Does it come as a surprise

That I dance like I’ve got diamonds

At the meeting of my thighs?

Out of the huts of history’s shame

I rise

Up from a past that’s rooted in pain

I rise

I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,

Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.

Leaving behind nights of terror and fear

I rise

Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear

I rise

Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,

I am the dream and the hope of the slave.

I rise

I rise

I rise.
