| “Man discovers true love, freaks out.” |
| When we get married, we understand that we’re signing up for a lifelong commitment. We understand that the love we have for our partner will change and grow and evolve over time. The frantic, can’t-keep-our-hands-off-each-other passion we feel in the beginning is bound to fade into something more closely resembling compassionate love, which is a love of devotion and care and kindness. That’s why we ideally choose someone we can see ourselves growing old with, someone we genuinely like, a best friend. |
| Except, it turns out, that isn’t always the case! Not if you take some people’s word for it, anyway. And when you’re expecting a “cozy but bland” marriage and suddenly find yourself in the opposite, well, it can be alarming. |

| “This is the realest depiction of a hot flash I’ve seen!” |
| Ah, hot flashes. They’re the one thing most people know about menopause—but even at that, we don’t really have that much common knowledge about. For instance, did you know that a hot flash can make a woman literally steam from head to toe? Probably not. |
| And yet, it’s true. The proof? A now viral video showing author and podcaster Tracey Monique sitting in the stands of a football game, eating nachos, and nonchalantly exuding vapors like a fantastical dragon. She even laughs as it’s happening. |

| Someone else’s body is none of your business. |
| Commenting on someone’s body should be off limits. Whether someone loses weight, gains weight or a stranger is larger than average or smaller than average, it’s generally ideal to keep the opinion of someone else’s body to yourself. But it seems that this is a hard lesson for people to learn, especially when it comes to celebrities. |
| Selena Gomez is often under scrutiny because of her appearance. Growing up in the public eye, people know she’s has always been on the thinner side and feel obligated to point out when she gains weight without taking into account that she’s no longer a 14-year-old child. The speculation and comments had reached such a point that Gomez decided to tackle it head on. |

| “One thing Morehouse gave me that no one else has been able to give me in my entire life is that stability.” |
| College is an invaluable experience for most college kids, while many can argue whether it’s financially worth the experience, there’s no doubt it’s not something that can be easily replicated. For many teens college is the first time they get to flex their new found adulthood without their parents’ supervision in a fairly controlled environment. But for some adolescents, college serves as much more than a place to spread their wings. |
| Some teens don’t have the guidance at home from parents or caregivers so all of the skills others may take for granted are learned while in the college setting. Venture capitalist and Atlanta Falcons’ limited partner Rashaun Williams was one of those students that needed a little more guidance when he headed to Morehouse College and attributes the college to his success. |
