name of song!??!

[EssenceOfTruth]

@princess123101 "Video" by India Arie!

[Euwee]

I have gotta share this with my best friend. She's a thick girl, thicker than me (for now), but she doesn't have a whole lot of confidence in herself and I think she's beautiful as she is. Of course, it never helped that her step mother was being negative and making her feel as if she's "dirty."

[pinkpearls89]

awww essence i enjoyed this video....you are beautiful inside and outside...thanks :)

[nashewilura]

your awesome!

[shanteluv09]

essence i have a question what if your mom went behind your back and got married to some guy you didn't know him and you never met him and she was going to a different country to get married to him what would you do? cause that's what I'm going through right now i don't know if i am in the right to get angry?

[iKaveoProductions]

sent this to my mom shes loves it

[EbonyBeauty100]

.At one point in my life I really didn't love myself it's gotten alot better over the years.Your video made it so I'll never feel that way again.Thanks

[BValchan]

Well done video & I loved your message & delivery. You have beaufiful smooth skin btw...Favorited.

[barnesfam]

Btw, this is one of my favorite songs. I even have it on my iPod. I remember when this song came out back in 2001. I was in 2nd grade. I even remember watching the Grammy's and I remember my mother and aunt were rooting for India.Arie to win, but she didn't. Instead it was someone else (Alicia Keyes I think) and my mother and aunt were mad because she didn't win. She did such a good job with this song, she should've won something, but you know how the Grammy's are, biased and all.

[EssenceOfTruth]

@barnesfam Yep, I remember that! India Arie is a special case. She is a rare beauty and many people don't even recognize her for that. It really is a shame. But, I appreciate the love and support. I really do!

[barnesfam]

You're beautiful Whitney. Guys are really missing out.

[EssenceOfTruth]

@Bluetorez Heheh! I am so glad you watched it again!

[EssenceOfTruth]

@Bluetorez LOL! Of course! I saw an article that has outraged plus size women and people who struggle with obesity and I thought it was time to republish this video to uplift anyone that is any race and size. It embraces everyone!

[ebonknight]

Wow, wow, wow. That video says it all, it shows a beautiful voluptuous Black woman. Your eyes and your smile will steal hearts... There are certain parts where you have this look that just...wow, wow. A gamer, beautiful as well, I am impressed with your confidence and you kindness that comes through in your vids. Much, much love. 

[EssenceOfTruth]

@ebonknight Trust me when I say, it gets hard holding on to the confidence...but, it means the world to me when someone feels that I have helped deliver a good message to other ladies. Thank you, Ebon. This is why you are KING in my book! ^___^*

[ebonknight]

@EssenceOfTruth In my book you are a beautiful Black Queen. You are rare in this day in age, smart, down to earth, caring, beautiful, and you game...sigh lol. Do you have a boyfriend??? jk. I listen to your conversations and I am just impressed all around about how you carry yourself. It is never easy to be confident 100% of the time but when it is necessary it is there. Much love and big hugz.

[mindtwindompeople]

You look so different Whitney, I bet it feels nice to look back 3 years when you were 20? :-)

[EssenceOfTruth]

@mindtwindompeople Ooo! Let me know when it is up! I wanna see it and yes! I Look so young...I am an old woman now. *cries*

I love you!!! This video made me smile :)

[EssenceOfTruth]

@Marnie205 Awww! I wuv you, too! heheh! You have made be grin from ear to ear! heheh!

[AliceNyan]

I hate when people make you feel so bad about yourself telling you how much fat you are, and how skinny and PERFECT (????) they are. Seriously, these people are shit to me. You look fantastic in this video, and in any other video. You are yourself above any mask. Love you.

[mtamorphis]

I remember this was my very first video I ever saw of yours and I LOVED IT! :)

[EssenceOfTruth]

@mtamorphis Awww! Was it this one as the first one? Really? Geesh! That was a loooong time ago! LOL!

[hirsty186]

id rather have a real woman with a real body instead of those stick insects that we see in magazines and on billboards

[EssenceOfTruth]

@hirsty186 Heheh! While I feel where you are coming from, I am the same way when it comes to men. I want a well built staircase! ^___^*

[AcidDiva]

I loved it. A lot of my down days have been from being so depressed over my body image. I feel so much better from watching this. You're very beautiful! Thank you for putting this up :D

[Jamar84]

I think is my favorite video from you since ive subscribed a year and a half ago

[EssenceOfTruth]

@Jamar84 Awww! Thank you, Jamar! heheh!

[Alexsh2010]

awww luvs it

[EssenceOfTruth]

@Alexsh2010 Hey, you! I appreciate you watching!

[LaughOLott]

LMFBO!!! WOW! I'm sorry! I was laughing the whole time! Maybe it's just a girl thing cause this was hilarious to me!

[EssenceOfTruth]

@LaughOLott Well, it wasn't suppose to be amusing. But, if you felt something positive from, that's all that matters. But, there was nothing humorous projected in this video. I'm sorry if you missed the point of it.

[LaughOLott]

@EssenceOfTruth No no no! I do understand it. I just got a kick out of it the first 10 seconds. You look gorgeous in this video.

PS: did you get Sims 3 Late Night yet? :D :D :D

[EssenceOfTruth]

@LaughOLott I plan to get it today, actually! I am so excited! I have been hearing GREAT things about it! Do you have it yet?

[LaughOLott]

@EssenceOfTruth YEAH I GOT IT THE DAY IT CAME OUT!!! :D :D :D! But I haven't been able to ply or even open it. My dads doing this stupid thing where he wants to see my progress report first. He seems to get mad everytime I get a new game or play videogames he does all he can to get me off.

[1RedFox2]

I've known you for years on YouTube... have I ever told you how beautiful you are???

[EssenceOfTruth]

@1RedFox2 Awwwwww! Thank you! But, remember I was much younger then. LOOL!

[arubiana]

Very cool

[EssenceOfTruth]

@arubiana Thank ya! Hey, how are you loving Night Life? My phone keeps blowing up with texts of how awesome it is. LOL!

[arubiana]

@EssenceOfTruth You need to get it ASAP...They really did a good job.

[EssenceOfTruth]

@arubiana I heard it was off the chain! But, its on my christmas list. Waiting for the price to come down a bit. Thinking of getting The Sims 3 console version next month.
