Enjoy…here’s a small taste and a surprise at the end….only for you guys
So last night as I sat on my couch and watched a movie around 12am I received a call. I don’t get too many anonymous calls, but my interest was peaked as to who could possibly be calling me this late and didn’t want me to know who they were. After three or four rings I answered the phone and there was a woman on the other end, she didn’t say hello or anything, she got straight to business. The first thing she asked was “Do you know _______?”. So my first thought was okay this is a friend of mines girl who is going thru his phone and calling females to see if he ‘s creeping. Slightly offended and caught off guard I quickly told her that I knew him, but that was the extent of it and that she had reached me in error. She then told me the shocking news and she stated the following, “Two weeks ago we found out that my best friend contracted AIDS from him and he gave us his phone to contact people”. As I sat there in shock and disbelief at what I was hearing she began to mention that her friend had been in a mental instituation and was taking this hard as I would expect anyone who has been given what’s thought of as a death sentence at the hands of someone they trusted would be. Af ter several more minutes of this young lady divulging information to me I left the conversation and told her I would keep her friend in my prayers. Needless to say it really spooked me and made me think about the fact that we all slip up sometimes and think we can trust people with our bodies and our lives. I thought to myself, “what if that name had of been different”, “how would I react”??? So many questions and answers that I never want to have to come up with. I ignore HIV/AIDS awareness week or month every year, it’s a taboo topic that non of us really want to ackowledge fully. Granted I’ve been tested and knowing is beautiful, but ladies, fellas got to be more careful I know I sound like an after school special, but rap it up everytime! Don’t be a statistic!
Another quality I NEED that I some how neglected to mention is the need for spiritual compatibility in a relationship, if we are not grounded in the LORD we have no foundation to build from!!!!
Thoughts…..
It’s crazy how now I understand what he meant by unconditional love, God’s love. He was preparing me for the day when I would be so fed up that the only thing that would stop me from blasting off and being spiteful and angry would be unconditional love. Love with out condition. Even though I really want to be on this blog and talk about how wrong he did me and how much money, time and work on his behalf that I can’t get back….I can’t get it back. Even though my heart was heavy with disappointment in the words of so many other people in my life and in his “when people show you who they are believe them”. No one can hide who they are all the time, eventually people either find it in their hearts to be sincerely good, good to you or once they’ve gotten all they can from you, they move on to the next. The reason I’m not angrily ranting or calling names is because I’ve been blessed to have someone come into my life that doesn’t really know who they are, but through them being in my life taught me alot about myself, and for that I thank him. I was headed down a road of confusion and I was brought back to God, I was in need of self discovery and I found some books that helped me ask some important questions about my life. I never knew I had the capacity to allow someone into my life like I did him and now I know I can. I refuse to believe that a man can’t appreciate me revising a business plan , giving him sound advice, flying to see him whenever I can, introducing him to my boss and closest friends, buy him things, cook, help find ways to grow his business, stand up for him when I know he’s wrong. It’s just that he has to be willing to do the same in return, I’m waiting on so many people to say I told you so and I’ll take that, but above all if you never learn then what’s the purpose? There is a lesson to be learned and I def can say I walked away a stronger person and I know I have the capacity to give all this and more to someone very deserving some day. I want all business owners to do better in general, if you have people grinding with you day after day behind the scenes and in front of the scenes make sure you appreciate them, those are the people that will get you to where you need to go those people come first.
In conclusion over the past week I’ve found out a lot of things that if I didn’t know how to handle the right way would have kept me down, complaining being ungrateful, but all day everyday all I’ve been able to do is smile. I have been around some great people and I know I have young women that look up to me and moping around about a guy is not the example I want to set. People always say God puts you through trials to prepare you for your blessings and as soon as I understood that God didn’t want him for me right now that’s when I was able to receive my blessings in abundance! I wish you nothing but the best and I’m praying for you, thanks for everything babes and I mean that from the bottom of my heart **kisses**! God Bless
In Closing will neva 4get ya!
