Katie's Blog: The Right Support

Posted by: Katie Rost 7/3/2009 | 4,850 Views

COMMENTS

The past few months have shown me how essential it is to have good, solid, trustworthy support in my inner circle of friends, lovers and advisors.
Without that, maintaining balance in this crazy, fast paced life becomes impossible.

Recently I found a good romantic connection with a man who is more than just a boyfriend... he’s truly my bodyguard, my strongest advocate, and my very best friend.

Finally! What the hell took so long?!

Everything hasn’t been perfect, but we’ve kept faith with each other and weeded out any influences that have tried to keep us apart.

When the right kind of person who brings sanity rather then chaos comes into your life it helps you take a look at what all of the other people who were in your life before were bringing to you with wiser eyes. Those drama-heavy, tormented and emotionally draining relationships seem phony compared to the beauty of a good and supportive relationship. All of the pain and fear seems silly, probably because it really is silly.

Falling in love with a man who provides the right support has helped me make the short list of friends even shorter. It's also got me hoping that other people start to do the same.

There is no reason to let just anyone into your life. Be selective! If you find people in your circle who have an investment in hurting you or making you feel badly about yourself with guilt or with negativity, remove that energy from the position of importance in your life. There is too much good that you are meant to do to wallow in misery with people who can’t support the good that's waiting for us all.

Protect your potential for greatness by surrounding yourself with the right kind of support. Tell the negative peeps:

“The list is short baby, it’s constantly being revised and YOU no longer make the cut!”

You may find yourself without as many friends, but the ones that remain are all you need.

My supportive love lifts me up when I’m questioning myself. He is gentle with my heart and conscious of communicating in spirit with me. Everyday he tells me to trust myself and to know that no matter what, he’s got my back. He walks that promise out in his actions towards me and I walk that out in mine towards him.

That old cliché “when its right, its right” is soooo very right.

Find that soft place to land in the people who give you good support. Give the right support in return to the people you choose to invest in.

Sit back and just notice how damn good and freeing the right support feels.

With much love...

- Katie Rost

You can't help who you fall in love with and loving to date and meet people from all nationalities. What does that have to do with not dating dark skin tones. Does anything I said; says I do not date dark skin men? You're stupid and you only see what you want to and run with what you think someone said. You make up things and run with them how pathetic. I guess you can be excused for not reading and comprehending what was written.

OK now your naming a diseases that I do not even have; thank GOD and I pray for those who do but, you said all that to say what??? If you are asking me if I were to get sick if my swirl lover would take care of me. The answer is yes!!! Been there done that not Cancer but I have had sugery that had me bed ridden and he was there the whole time waiting on me hand and foot. I've also been in a horrific car accident and at the time I was dating a brother and he did the same thing; so you say that bull sh*t to make a point? What's your point? Sorry dumb ass but you need to come better than that. I would not date a man that would not care for me in the first place no matter the nationality.

Great minds think alike! I love this article gorgeous, but you know what funny part is, I wrote something interrelated to this that I just posted here on the site today. Mine applies to all aspects in life. Thank you for sharing the specific importance about friends/family/loved ones.

I am happy Katie found her a nice man to spend time with and get to know. He sounds like a great guy! Congrats!

I can't help who I fall in love with. If he happens to be of another race then so be it. As long as he treats me with love and respect so be it. I have had the opportunity of dating a lot of other nationalities and I've learned so much, met really good people from it and I would not trade those experiences for the world. If you have a problem with it then I hope you get over it really fast because you are missing out on an experience of a life time.

- @NSB >>>> God, you sound like a weak minded pathetic snatch! But then again, you don't see any beauty in the darker skin tones, so, I guess, you can be excused for your...dribble!
  -Oh, and this IS a fact- since African American females suffer disproportionately from breast cancer, not to mention ovarian cancer than they're white female counterparts, a mystery the medical journals proclaim: your 'swirl lover' can be there to wipe the feces from your azz and the snots from your nostril as the cancer and chemo rage through your bodies.
  -I just thought 'bout something, if Katie did, in fact, have a black boyfriend, why NOT have a picture of a black couple, 'eh? Katie, you thought you were smart, didn't ya? But I am not like the rest, I'll not shiver and shrivel at the sound of the 'angry black woman's voice!' So you and your blog can go F_U_C_K off!! My presence here can only serve to increase your hits, so you'll not get any shine from or cause of me!

- You're trying to push this girl to get a boob-job as prevention for breast cancer? Might as well pull all your teeth while you're at it to avoid cavities. Dentures will do just fine, right?
  
  Dude you're nuts. I wonder how many other guys use this line when trying to convince a woman to get implants when she looks beautiful. You're a really f*ck-up guy.
  
  You're a superficial cracker on the inside, m*therfucker! As neurotic and superficial as whitest 'cracker' I ever met. And this recognition is coming from a white guy.

- You better hope Katie doesn't know who you are. If doesn't know you, you're a stalker. If she knows you, be prepared to apologize very sincerely after all the sh*t-talking about Katie and Russ' nieces as well. Just how dumb are you?
  
  You ought to read up on the first amendment as it pertains to making threats online. Anybody thinks they can talk sh*t like you have about real people from behind the cover of anonymity is playing with fire.
  
  I've seen plenty of real people humiliated after forgetting they can still be held accountable for their words even after they thought they were anonymous.

X. Y. Z.......This is a positive website so I won't tell you what I would do to you. Move on slim, stop stalking this woman. You the type of clown why beautiful black women get with "other" human beings.

Your post was right on point. It's strange that I came across this at this point in my life, since I too am going through a friendship filtering stage right now. I can't understand the negative comment that u got from that one person, but hey what can you do. Keep it up!! Stop by and check out my blog sometime at:

- @BlackHawk69 >>>>
  
  -Listen, I'm X,Y, and Z, I'm 'that negative comment person,' if you're gonna address me, or anything I have to say, it's X, Y, and Z, K?
  -So, since I'll not support her cause I don't see 'myself' 'getting it in' with her, I'm NOW negative? Are you kidding me? Then all of the white men in America, NO, the world are negative! Man, the double standard is THICK up in here, ain't it?
  -If I find out that Katie is with a WHITE MAN, WHITE BOY or whatever, I'll NOT SUPPORT HER, do you hear ME? As I did for Claudia Jordan I'll do with her; oh, as I said, I canceled my satellite radio subscription just cause Claudia get's down like that!! I'll not buy or support ANY of what Hallie Berry does, nor Solange, or Russell's nieces. Not to worry, in this the 'Internet age', there are NO secrets!!
  -I'm not Russell: flying Katie down to St. Barts in private jets, but I'm alright. Any attempt at a dialog with you would only prove futile, you 'sit when you pee', don't you, BlackHawk69? You don't have 'a pair', now do you, BlackHawk69? Or maybe you do - a white pair; maybe you're glad that she's with some white man, well, in that case FU_C_K her! She'll not get any of my support!! She can empower all she wants!
  -And to think, I was gonna offer her tits! I followed this BIT_CH long before ever commenting. She did say she wanted tits; yes, she did!! It's the 'silly negro in me.' F_u_ck dat, sh*t, YOU buy her tits then - you're welcomed to her! You can hold her hand while the lump metastasize and 'swirl love her' thorough the mastectomy; you'll read Alice Walker to her and count the slain drips through the haze of morphine!!

Congratulations, sounds like you found a real man who knows how to treat a woman, there's only a few of them left out here. They seem to be lacking in one category or another, he sounds complete. A perfect compliment to you, thats what we all look for but so rarely find.

Wonderfully written. It's very rare in this world that you find somebody that understands you mentally, physically, and spiritually then they embrace you without judgement. Outside influences will try their best to destroy our dream but nothing can interfere with our destiny if we don't allow it to. The road was laid long ago and circled back 360 degrees, to form completion. It's our circle and we must protect it from forces that try to penetrate it. We must fight them off vehemently, because they will try to dim the light that they are so jealous of. Its been a long road for both of us, lots of trial and tribulations but it's time to heal. Trust me and embrace my open arms, heart, and soul. You've created beauty for me , I'm living again, let me return this to you. This is just the beginning for what we could create, the chaos is over. I appreciate everything and see so much more is possible in life. This is the truth, love in it's purest form....................
