About me!!!

I have three grown children ages 34, 32 & 26. I have four grandchildren ages 18, 13, 5 & 4. Work for the State of Texas for 30 years. Pursuing my Masters. I have high standards, and I don't believe because others have different thresholds of tolerance means that I should change mines. I have strong morals and ethics beliefs. God, honesty and fidelity are not options but requirements. Honesty and fidelity are very important to me. I find it very difficult to pretend otherwise. I also believe that a healthy relationship, just like a healthy body, requires maintenance and nurturing.

IN MY OWN WORDS...

I am an independent, intelligent, strong, passionate woman. I believe in open and honest communication, love, and respect! However, I am not perfect I admit I spend way too much time sending e-mails :)! I enjoy working out, love movies, enjoy BBQ's, sporting events, weekend road trips, shopping, eating out, concerts, museums...etc., etc! I am emotionally stable, no baggage and no DRAMA!

I don't want to be made love to by 100 different men...I want to be made love to by 1 man 100 different ways! So, that brings me to looking for one special man! One where we can laugh about the silly things, stand proud of the good things and see us both through the more challenging things!

Mostly, I want to be in love! I want to wake up with the warmth of someone special beside me. I want the comfort of knowing I have a best friend! I want to feel the excitement of our times together and know that our love touches the depth of our souls!

Do you feel me?

*** SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT***

Though they do not start off this way, many relationships end without an ounce of excitement. There is not a whisper of a thrill. It has all of the passion of a pair of titmice. You need to be swept away, levitated, to sing with rapture and dance like a dervish. Try to be deliriously happy or at the very least leave yourself open to be that way. It really is a cornball thing. But, love is passion, obsession and someone that you cannot live without. You should fall head over heels in love.

Find a person to love like crazy and they love you like crazy back. How do you achieve this? By forgetting your head and listening to your heart. To have someone whose smell your love and they love your smell as well. Someone who gives you a weak feeling in your knees and makes your heart beat faster. A person whose wonderful lips and tongue, you love to taste. Someone whose passion is such that making love to them would be like making love to someone whose making love for the very first time.

Choose a person for their verve, excellence and ability to follow, stand by your side and to lead. One that has lived a first-rate life which is eminently usable in your life. Someone who loves you to the degree that they know the worst things about you and it is okay. You know each other's secrets. Your deepest and darkest secrets are known. Yet, you are free to unconditionally love each other completely and totally without any fear. There is nothing that you do not know about each other and its okay. To be with one, who makes you feel loved and they become your favorite person. You do not want some aimless infatuation, which is only indulged for the moment. That would be missing everything that matters, such as trust, responsibilities, taking weight for your choices and feelings, spending the rest of your life living up to them and above all, not hurting the object of your love and affection.

You want to be a person who discovers another and they then discover that you will love them, are worthy of them and have the grace, compassion and fortitude to walk beside them as they make their way through this beautiful thing called life. There is something indescribably sexy about them all alone or in the middle of a crowd. It is to the degree, that you could make love to them right then and there. You do not need someone who operates behind the scene to suborn your trust as you stamp them with your imprimatur of class, elegance and stature. You do not want deception that leaves you on the receiving end of machinations so Machiavellian that it has rarely been your experience to encounter. Yet, if it is done, you should combat it stoically and selflessly.

You should love your life. However, its course depends on the person you marry. They may want lots of kids, a bigger house or a better car. You should gladly give up what you want for the person you love and marry. You make your own choices. When you marry, you want to give them what they need. You should be taking care or each other the best that you can. There's nothing wrong with taking care of someone. That take care of you.

The truth is, there is no sense in living your life without love. To make life's journey and not fall deeply in love is to not have lived a life at all. You must try. Because, not to try, is not to have lived. Such a person may never be found. However, you should try to stay open. Who knows, lightning could strike.

"In the search for me, I discovered truth. In the search for truth, I discovered love. In the search for love, I discovered God. And in God, I have found everything."

EMPEROR OF MY SOUL

That if I were to find the man of my dreams, he'd be the "Emperor of My Soul." As he will be in my every dream, when comes the darkness of night. My head would be filled with thoughts of him, in the brightness of morning light. He'd overwhelm my thinking, as I went through my day's routine. He would be all that I could ever hope for, far more than just a King. Without him, I would be aimless. With him, I would be whole. Because he would be the "King of My Heart" and the "Emperor of My Soul."

For, I want to feel love, feel you, feel free. I want to love you and you to love me. I want to dance with the wolves in the rain. I want to feel the light of the moon release all its pain. I want to show you what love is and how it can be. I want to walk hand in hand ... give me the key. I want to dance with you in the light of the moon. I want to hold you close but not too soon.

I want you to know me and feel my heart. I want you to understand me and know your part. I want you to open up and let me in. I want to feel you trust me, my newest and dearest friend. I'm the one who's faithful, someone who's true. Because, I'm the one who will love you for you.

It's me; I'm the one, so here I am, just come and get me and take hold of my hand and allow me to feel love. I want you to pull me close, love me, and hold me tight in that you never let go, for this is our night. It's our night, the night of the very beginning of you and me; the first night of forever together we will be.

Hand in hand, just you and I, let this be forever and never say, "Good-bye."


What is better ..... A Soul Mate or Playmate?

In our quest for happiness we must be sure that we don't settle for a Playmate when God has a Soul mate waiting for us. Sometimes this is a hard distinction to make. Playmates are tricky. They are so much fun to be with that even the smartest of us will be fooled into thinking this has to be our Soul mate. Worse yet too many of us attempt to make a Soul mate out of a Playmate.

The danger of this is that later, after years of playing we will meet our Soul mate, but it may be too late then. We may have already made a Life mate of our Playmate and created life-long bonds (emotional, children, etc.) Or we may have been hurt from playing so hard that we are in no shape ourselves to be anyone's anything. How can we distinguish between the One, and just another one?

First, we must be open with ourselves about who we really are and what our soul yearns for. Only you and God know what is truly in your heart and mind. Only you know what will make you truly happy and whole.

In order to find your Soul mate you have to know you, first. You must be willing to listen to that inner voice. And is that voice telling you that the nerdy person you enjoy talking and sharing your thoughts with, could be he? What about that friend who is always willing to go the extra mile for you when no one else will.

Oh no! He's too short or too tall, balding or too hairy, and on and on? Just too ordinary looking for me! Then there's that girl who makes you feel so special when you're around her, but she doesn?t match that ideal you have conjured in your head. She's too tall, not slender enough, not light or dark enough, not shapely enough, not attractive enough, and on and on. She just couldn't be for me! So what if he or she doesn't look like Denzel Washington or Halle Berry! He or she is going to treat you like the jewel that you are.

Not only that, his or her soul and yours will commune in ways you never imagined possible! In order to heed that voice, we have to put on the back burner our own superficial thinking. Could it be that your inner desire is for a truly genuine person with a good heart?

If you enjoy playing, stay on the playground. There are plenty of Playmates out there to occupy your time. But don't spend too much time playing or you may play your life away. Eventually the playing loses it appeal and your soul begins to crave a deeper, more meaningful connection. Your soul begins to crave your Soul mate.

Last but not least you are the company that you keep.


It Is Better To Be Alone, Than In The Wrong Company

Tell me who your best friends are, and I will tell you who you are. If you run with wolves, you will learn how to howl. But, if you associate with eagles, you will learn how to soar to great heights. "A mirror reflects a man's face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses." The simple but true fact of life is that you become like those with whom you closely associate - for the good and the bad.

The less you associate with some people, the more your life will improve. Any time you tolerate mediocrity in others, it increases your mediocrity. An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people. As you grow, your associates will change.

Some of your friends will not want you to go on. They will want you to stay where they are. Friends that don't help you climb will want you to crawl. Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dream. Those that don't increase you will eventually decrease you.

Consider this: Never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems with someone incapable of contributing to the solution, because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how. Not everyone has a right to speak into your life. You are certain to get the worst of the bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong person.

Don't follow anyone who's not going anywhere. With some people you spend an evening: with others you invest it. Be careful where you stop to inquire for directions along the road of life. Wise is the person who fortifies his life with the right friendships.

BOYS VS MEN

A boy imitates others, always trying to be "boss"
Men possess the ability, to feel a womans true desire

A boy looks at your body first
When a man can see your inner soul...he knows you have so much to offer, and with you,he feels he can grow

A boy will ask to spend the night
But a man wants to fullfill your every need

A boy hunts for a "little Piece",
While a man yearns for a soul mate.

A boy will leave you feeling insecure, while you wonder where he is
With a man you`re always reassured, because a man takes care of his.

Boys can give you moments
While a man brings fond memories. He values things like trust, honesty, honor, and in you, he will believe

This is for all Guys who are scared of Ladies over 40!!!!.

A Woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.

If a Woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it's usually something more interesting.

Women over 40 are dignified.

They seldom have a screaming match with you at the Opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant.

Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.

Older Women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.

Women get Psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a Woman over 40.

Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a Woman over 40 is far Sexier than her younger counterpart.

Older Women are forthright and honest.

They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk or if you are acting like one!

You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise Women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately,it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot Woman of 40+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old Waitress.

For all those Men who say, "Why buy the Cow when you can get the Milk for free". Here's an update for you:

Nowadays 80% of Women are against marriage, why? Because Women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, Just To Get A Little Sausage.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST!!!

TOO THE FEW GOOD BLACK MEN OUT THERE...

Good Black Men are indeed all around us. We pass them on the streets, in the malls and the halls at work. Most we can't see because we don't know what a good black man really looks like. He usually isn't flashy enough or
rich enough to turn our heads He might not wear a suit or drive a Lexus. He might not have a "body like Tyson with a Denzel face." But, as you mature, you realize it's better to find someone who's got your back than someone who turns your head.

A good Black Man doesn't agree wholeheartedly with everything you say. He doesn't just tell you what you want to hear and do the opposite. He doesn't declare how sensitive, sweet, caring, sincere, yada yada he is
(he won't have to because it shows). He has his own opinions and you may clash, but he doesn't have to degrade you to prove he's right. He even admits at times to being wrong, especially if you are willing to do the same.

A good Black Man is not going to meet every item on your checklist. He is human with frailties and faults mixed in with all of his wonderful, strong attributes. He needs your love and respect. He needs to feel that you
don't live to "catch" him doing something wrong so you can declare, "Aha! I knew you were a dog!!"

A good Black Man doesn't necessarily give you a huge birthday or Valentine's gift. He shows his love in the ways that are comfortable to him. Don't judge him by TV standards. No one is really living a fairy tale. You'll miss
out on your own fairy tale by buying into the myth that our men are no good. It's just not true.

Black Men, we SALUTE you, and thank you for who you are and all you've done.

Sincerely your friend

Have a great day and better tomorrow...!
