Arise Woman!


When you watch me standing up here, you go...WOW...She has made it in life, she has an amazing partner, she goes places, she shares tables with the top-notch people of this world. I wish i could be her, you enviously state it. Look! There is no difference between you and me. You are equally beautiful, talented with a lot of potential. All you need to do is tap into it. Never allow anyone underlook or despise you, trample on your self-esteem. You are enough and you can shoot right through the sky like anyone out here.

Often we wait for someone to pick us up from the crowd, sometimes they never come, sometimes they never see us, sometimes we are too many and only a few are seen. This doesn't mean you are not something. Sometimes we must step out of our hiding. Shine your light girl. Do not wait too long or you will be lost. But again do not rush for anything in this world. If you try to catch up with everyone, you might end up face down

Ever wondered how i got here, that is not the point because you can use a completely different path to get here or even past. All you have to remember is that the path has to be pure.

When i shared that space with my partner to be that night. I didn't see us this way. He locked eyes with mine as he did what he does best. He kept glancing. The following day i found myself in a meeting with him, a meeting i was asked into. "What happened last night wasn't a dream after all"...i noticed he kept looking at me. I was boldly looking his way because that is what i do best when i meet new people. The eyes always tell me what kind of person one is. He had this great charm about him...he still does. I would drift away momentarily and a tap would fall on my well-covered shoulders. See i do not and never will use my body to get me places. As a matter of fact when in public places i am mostly covered. When i am going to meet someone, no matter how much i want to get him, i will not use my temple. Keep yourself covered; for the right reason. If you want to expose flesh, never let it be for that reason to earn you more money or hook up one. Many times such don't last. Our counterparts need a woman they can proudly hold in public and take home. They need a woman who has self-respect.
If you let a man out and not constantly groom him, and love him, talk...he will be far from perfect. There are a few men out there who are good to go, but many still need work, regardless of age. So when you look at us and gasp, it didn't come easy, some fights, a few arguments, but above all, things get done and the love prevails. We are happy because we choose "HAPPY". 

Now get out of your hiding space and shine your light!
