L O V E

I welcomed love in freely,

without resistance,

without doubt or question.

I opened my heart and allowed the fresh breeze of love to blow in--
inside my arteries,

my veins,

my organs,

and up into my brain...

Ooooh, it felt sooooooo good.

I welcomed its scent, so sweet is its aroma.
I rubbed it into my black skin, it became melanoma.
It changed the color of what I said and how I behaved.
It began to break and bend, rip and tear me from limb to limb.

I fought back.
I even tried to stuff it away.
Yet, it returned more forceful than its entry,
cutting and twisting me around like a rag doll.

I cried.

I screamed.

I fainted.

And while I lay there spinning around in love,

it hit me;

you have no say here...

my body quivered and jerked.

Surrender.

Love won.

I felt peace-FULL.

Love said, Now get up,

go out

and

LOVE.

Has any one else fallen...?

Arms that will....

Find arms that will hold you @ your weakest…
eyes that will see you at your ugliest…
and a heart that will love you at your worst.

Then, you have found true love.

What do you think?

Love Gives More

Just when you think Love wouldn't give more, it does.

Love is something I hear about, talk about, share w/others, and believe I have touched a time or two. Recently, I spoke to 30 single black beautiful women that do not have love in their lives. These wonderful women tell the same old story... they were told that they are the problem. They were either too much of something, or not enough of something else.

However, Joe from twitter says that's not true. He dated many beautiful women before sitting at home "alone" realizing that he, too, didn't have real love in his life. Joe came across a light bulb moment and what he discovered surprised him. He realized that he didn't have the proper personal development tools to deal w/the women he dated. He thought he was ready, but recognized that he was not equipped to give these women the kind of love and life that they deserved. Therefore, he always created a reason to act out, cop an attitude, or bail leaving the ball of blame in his partner’s court.

The Diamond Result:   Joe is now a coach, helping young men step up to the plate to take responsibility for themselves.  His mission:   help young gentlemen build up their confidence and understand their role in the relationship so that it's healthy and flourishing. I enjoyed listening to Joe's interview & wish him the best w/his coaching practice. See, Real Love always gives more because Love really does love us. And Love uses us to give back even more love. Remember, love gives more.  ;-)

Ladies and gentlemen, be encouraged.
