Random

I find myself at times reminiscing over the great adventures. The love that I thought was true but in fact was a lie. It's a shame that someone who has the potential to be great will never realize that potential because they're too busy trying to find potential ass for the evening....

Hurt begats hurt.....I told myself that the whole time that I was chasing after you. Even to this day, I still think about you......wondering what could've been if you were the person that I thought that you were.

How Can You Compete?

So, I have officially been out of the "situation" with old dude for almost a month now. Contrary to popular belief I'm doing okay, but I keep thinking in the back of my head, "why her and not me?"

Guess I'll never know, eh?

So, You Really Think You're That Great?

I'm not awesome.....I'm phenomenal. I am that broad......the epitome of a strong black woman. Raising a child single handedly, a proud homeowner, holder of a bachelor's and masters degree....
The shit...
The doo doo
The real deal
That bitch

Really? I'm just a girl from Colli Park, GA. Born at Grady hospital where a heathen stole my mama's house shoes (bedroom slippers for the un-country) while she was giving birth to me. I call my closet, "clawzette". I smoke cigarettes. I hate working for the "man". Sometimes I drink too much and sleep alone way too often. I use to have a serious problem with where I am in life....I thought I should be further along, but I now know that that was my "id" trying to start shit. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complacent, but I've learned to be satisfied with what I have while I work (with God's guidance) to get where I need to be.

I'm not perfect.....far from it as a matter of fact. Actually, the perfect description of myself is "perfectly imperfect". I get mad, sad, happy, glad, giddy, disappointed, heartbroken, discouraged, encouraged, enlightened, etc. I'm just human....plain and simple. Life has taught me a lot and Lord willing, I'll have the opportunity to remain on this earth a little longer until my mission is complete.

So the next time you think that you're so great go ahead and yell: "hell yeah!"

How Facebook Kills.......The Damaging Romantic Implications on Relying on Facebook Status Posts

So, it's been a minute and I have lots to tell. First off, Facebook is the devil.......it allows evil to pervade and even sometimes end possible romances.

Now, I'm not saying that I didn't contribute to the situation, but I somehow feel that facebook saved me from a life of heartbreak.....not that my heart isn't breaking now, but I feel that the situation would've been ten times as worse. Here's the tale of my woe...

I was seeing, no scratch that, talking to someone off and on for the past year and a half. We connected on so many levels, but he had one fatal character flaw....he just didn't give a damn. So, needless to say, I never understood him. Anyhoo, so being the highly principled person that I am (or would like to be), I wanted to be sure that he wasn't involved with anyone before I gave him the green to re-pursue me, so I went to Facebook page #1. Nothing there....quite innocent. Facebook page #2, however, piqued my interest. There was one post in particular that seemed very, how shall I put it, concerning. There was a woman who commented on his post whose profile pic, coincidentally, was of the two of them. I'm not clairvoyant, nor do I have ESP, but that sent off warning signals. I don't know of too many people who have profile pics of themselves and a their "friend" of the opposite sex. When I asked him about it, of course he denied it and said that nothing was going on between them. However, still not really believing him, I copied and pasted the status and all comments associated with them into a message and sent it to him. It took him a week to respond, but of course, he didn't sound too happy when he called. When I didn't answer the phone, he then sent me a message via facebook saying that I had "wayyyy too much time on my hands". I don't know why, but that set me off.

First of all, let me preface the ensuing conversation afterwards by saying, I helped this man move, "loaned" him money, and not to mention when his pockets were a little short, I picked up the meal ticket. So, when I saw that I was basically being played, I was hotter than the Fourth of July with plenty of firecrackers. I called him and left an unflattering voicemail, then proceeded to respond to his Facebook message with an even less than unflattering response. He then called back and left a voicemail in which every other word was peppered with "fuck" and some other expletives. After all that, I was quite humored. Later on, I started to feel remorse for what I said and what I did simply because the evidence was pretty blatant. I didn't need to go the extra mile to copy and paste. Now, I'm just hurt and still remorseful. I acted out of character and that really bothered me. I even went as far as to call him back and attempt to apologize. This is truly weird and I have asked and continue to ask God "why should I feel bad"? Well, I know why, but I'd like to hear God say it.....

The moral of the story is ladies and gents, if you suspect that the love of your life is involved with someone and you confirm it via facebook just know that the fallout can be quite disastrous......Again, Facebook is the devil....let the church say Amen!

And Just Like That....

The person that I thought I would be spending a little more time with is no more. He's not dead or anything like that, but I've just come to a point where I simply can't "do it" anymore. I've overlooked some things and made excuses, but at the end of the day I want something more and I don't feel that I'm going to get that from him. I've cried most of the weekend, going back and forth on whether I'm making the right decision. However, I think God has pretty much given me every indication that I am doing the right thing. I feel that if I don't do this now, that I will go on to possibly despise this person and I honestly don't want to waste energy on doing that. So, with that being said, I just want to leave now.....Maybe, somewhere down the line we will be able to be friends? I think I'd like to, but just not right now because it hurts too much.....

Longing for For a Long Time Together

Ghetto Heaven

This is the title of a song by Common on his Like Water for Chocolate CD that has found a new meaning in my life. It's a song that the man that I adore at this current moment plays quite a bit on his iPod. Why do I like....no love this man so much? Is it because he shares a passion for music like I do? Or is it because I know that eventually during the course of this love affair he will hurt me? I don't know, but at this very moment, all I know is that my heart aches for him and I think about him all the time. I wish love wasn't so complicated....I just wish that it flowed like the melodic notes of a symphony.

I just love him.....plain and simple.
