In the old age black was not counted fair,
Or if it were, it bore not beauty's name;
But now is black beauty's successive heir,
And beauty slandered with a bastard shame:
For since each hand hath put on Nature's power,
Fairing the foul with Art's false borrowed face,
Sweet beauty hath no name, no holy bower,
But is profaned, if not lives in disgrace.
Therefore my mistress' eyes are raven black,
Her eyes so suited, and they mourners seem
At such who, not born fair, no beauty lack,
Sland'ring creation with a false esteem:
Yet so they mourn becoming of their woe,
That every tongue says beauty should look so.

I got news for you, Will, they're still trying to make Black ugly today.

Lately, I have been a bit blue due the bad behaviors exhibited by many, many people who choose to behave abominably. While I struggle every day to find the beauty in people of this culture that embraces ugliness as a "starting point," I find Myself a bit fatigued. Well, that's what I get for (1) having expectations in the first place that most people work towards being the Highest they can be and (2) fantasizing that they desire to be better than common and trite instead of paying attention to the truth these people show Me.
Along with that annoyance are the people who attempt to "top" Me via what I refer to as "reindeer games" - you know, the "make-wrong" tactics (as demonstrated poorly on a daily basis by the teabaggers). They try to "trap" you with a comment about something you say and/or do that is intended to put you on the defensive while feigning to place themselves on a higher level of consciousness than where they see evidence that you are.
The reasons these reindeer games do not work on Me are:
What is so tedious about these reindeer gamers is that I have taken the time to put everything you need to know about Me on the internet, available for free and they don't bother to read it - they just look for something to attempt to top Me.
Evidence of a Higher Level of Consciousness is compassion. I pity "haters" and venerate "appreciaters". I understand that The Mirror is the true test of how you care for yourself. When you look in The Mirror, do you love yourself? like yourself?
Though I see these reindeer gamers clearly, and it would be all too easy to drop down to their level to make sure that they understand that I am not the one they can feed their negativity with, I choose to educate them with the opportunity to grow towards the self-love that will make their lives happy and whole.
Education is the reason I give How To Present yourself To A Mistress for FREE and continuing in the giving spirit, purchases of the full version support My Charities.
I truly believe that if you're not a part of the solution, you're a part of the problem. I am a a major part of the solution to what is important in My Domain.
I am so glad to love what I see in The Mirror. I sincerely wish that joy to everyone and I support you in doing the work to have this joy.
Lil Doggie's favorite biscuit recipe from The Good Food Cookbook for Dogs by Donna Twichell Roberts!
4 cups whole-wheat flour
2 cups old-fashioned oatmeal
1-1/4 cups water
1/4 cup minced apple
3 Tbsp ground cinnamon
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp ground cloves
1. Heat oven to 325-degrees F. Place all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly until combined to form dough.
~ Tip from My Mom: Spoon in oil and then honey so that honey pours easily from spoon.
2. Roll out dough on floured surface to about 1/4-inch thick. Using a cookie cutter, cut into bone shapes. Combine dough scraps; continue to roll out and cut into shapes until all dough has been used.
3. Place cookies on ungreased foil-lined baking sheets. Bake 30 to 35 minutes.
Makes 5 to 6 dozen cookies.

Note: Lil Doggie didn't mind that his cookies were not in "bone" shapes. He was perfectly satisfied with stars, circles, snowman, and other shapes.
