"Embrace what makes you unique, even if it makes others uncomfortable." - Janelle Monáe

We all have a story to tell, Janelle Monáe shares a touching story on her upbringing:
"When I started my music career, I was a maid. I used to clean houses. My mother was a proud janitor. My stepfather, who raised me like his very own, worked at the post office and my father was a trashman. They all wore uniforms and that’s why I stand here today, in my black and white, and I wear my uniform to honor them.
This is a reminder that I have work to do. I have people to uplift. I have people to inspire. And today, I wear my uniform proudly as a Cover Girl. I want to be clear, young girls, I didn’t have to change who I was to become a Cover Girl. I didn’t have to become perfect because I’ve learned throughout my journey that perfection is the enemy of greatness.

Ladies, it doesn't matter where you come from, keep pushing on, what really matters is where you are going, focus on getting there!! - RSL Blogger
