    Rhonda’s Rage
    Rhonda, on the other hand, wanted revenge from the moment she saw Boo Boo Kitty wearing those infamous red bottoms.  The two had completely different mindsets leading up to the fight.  Boo Boo Kitty pushed Rhonda down her stairs, causing her baby to die.  Rhonda wanted revenge bad and her rage could have led her to push Boo Boo Kitty over the ledge.

    Cookie is the show’s most dominant character by far.  Anika didn’t let Cookie intimidate her, as proven by her willingness to fight her.  While we think Cookie won, Anika got some good blows in.

    E! Online published an article on Anika and Hakeem’s baby who may have died on the show’s Season 2 finale episode.  The story’s title “Pregnancy Shocker” reads more like a celebrity tabloid than a recap.  Variety published a similar article showing just how much people love Boo Boo Kitty despite Cookie’s shade.

    It’s easy to confuse fantasy and reality when it comes to the unbelievable moments on the show.  Seeing Grace Gealey pregnant on the show has led many fans to believe that the talented actress is expecting a baby in real life.

    The thin line between fantasy and reality becomes even thinner when the show’s stars use their social media account to promote their characters.  After Grace posted the image above via her Instagram account a large amount of her fans concluded that she was definitely expecting a baby.

    So do you think Trai Byers and Grace Gealey are expecting a baby in real life? The two got married behind our back making it clear that they are private.  Trai is a religious man who almost gave up acting to become a pastor.  Do you think they rushed to get married after finding out that Grace was pregnant?
    Sorry, but it looks like we’re gonna have to wait for mini-Trace.  The image below shows Gealey, last week, at the Power Up, We Are the Future Gala.  There is nothing pregnant about that amazing figure.  When the couple decides to have a baby we’re certain that he or she will be beautiful considering Trai and Grace’s good looks.

    Pain is a part of life and it helps you grow.  True strength is smiling when you feel like crying, laughing to hide the pain and going on, no matter what.

    2. You are not alone.

    When you are experiencing difficult times it often seems like everyone else is doing just fine.  Many of us are fighting to overcome the same battles and we are in this together.  

    3. When you depend on people to build you up they’ll have the same power to break you down.

    The woman who does not need anyone’s validation is the most feared individual on the planet.  You don’t need to be validated by anyone else.
    4. Your mind is a powerful thing. When you fill it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change.

    Your mind is everything.  What you think you become.  Train your mind to see the good in every situation.

    5. There is always something to be thankful for.

    There are shortcuts to happiness and dancing is one of them.  Being positive in a negative situation is a sign of strength.  Someone else is happy with less than what you have.
