MY IMAGE (screenshots from my Facebook)

People have different skin tone. We have light skin tone, ebony or dark skin, etc. I am not really ebony but I admire ebony black and have friends that are ebony. This is my cousin on the day we attended a function at ewet housing👇.

Reflect on the phrase: "life is black, whiten it as you wish.”

Life is black, whiten it as you wish reminds us that life itself is neutral and life's meaning is not predetermined. We have the power to pursue passions and values that give life purpose, emphasize the good and life, create our own reality, focusing on the positive, take responsibility and cultivate resilience. This phrase inspires us to approach life with hope, being optimistic and have determination.
