Don't Be A Cry Baby


Don’t Be A Cry Baby!

Babies cry as a form of communication because they are not capable of articulating their need, want, or desire. When a baby cries, an adult runs to the rescue and attempt to discover the reason for the cry. Perhaps the baby is hungry, sleepy, ill, or need a change of clothes. The adult will assume the responsibility for the wellbeing of the child and his/her satisfaction. The baby is incapable of taking care of him/herself.

As an adult it is alarming witnessing another adult putting on a show of whining, complaining, and temper tantrums. The sadness is the adult that is behaving as a baby, expect for other adults to run to their rescue and attempt to figure out what’s the matter and give and apply a solution. They complain about not having enough money, whine about being in a bad marriage, cry about being single, whimper about bills, and groan about life in general. This behavior from an adult is totally unacceptable. If you do not like the life that you have; change it! “When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways.” I Corinthians 13:11

As an adult not only are you capable of articulating your desire, but you are also capable of seeking and applying a solution. Whining, complaining, and whimpering will not produce anything of significance. If you are constantly whining, complaining, and whimpering to other adults, eventually it will become bothersome and intolerable. No one wants to be around a cry baby. Problems will arise but it’s how you handle the problem that will reveal your character. Please do not blame others for your position in life. Take accountability and responsibility for where you are and begin to take moderate measures to change your situation. Adult cry babies are truly undesirable. Again, no one wants to be around cry babies.

I love My Love because it is His Will

I love My Love because it is His Will

A sudden storm
A cool breeze
A baby being born
Because it is His will

A rainbow in the sky
The 7 seas
My love for him comes easily
It is His will

I love My Love
I love my love like water loves the rain
Like a poet loves words and
A preacher loves the gospel
I love him because it is His Will

I love him like a song love lyrics
Like the moon loves darkness
I love him like silk rubbing against my skin
I love him because…
It is His Will

I love My Love
I love him…
Tenderly
Eagerly
Passionately
Without hesitation
My love for my love is so sweet

I love you My Love
Come to me
Like the ink on this paper
I want to be one with you….make poetry with you
Oh love…love me too

Love me
Tenderly
Eagerly
Passionately
Without hesitation
Make your love for me so sweet

Come love…Let’s make love
Let’s make love jealous of our love
Let our love be so tempting that love wants to re-invent itself
To love like our love

I love you My Love
And when the ink on this paper cease
My love for you continues on
I love you My Love
Because it is His Will

Can’t Get Enough of Your Love

Can’t Get Enough of Your Love

The first time you said, “I love you”
Time stood still
‘Til I could inhale your words
Slowly penetrating the walls to my soul
I grasped for air as I took your words in
Trembling from the intensity of your stare
Your eyes would not leave me
I did not want your eyes to leave me
I wanted your words to go deep inside my soul
I did not want the moment to end
The first time you said, “I love you”
I grabbed your hand
I had to touch you
I had to know this was real
There’s only one first time
I want this moment to last a lifetime
Words
Silence
Stare
Tremble
Touch
Intensity
Passion
Exhale
I can’t get enough of your love….

Single and NOT Satisfied




I would like to share with you a true story. I attended my first “single’s conference” about eight years ago. I was really excited! I’d recently become acquainted with one of Atlanta’s “mega churches”. There was so much hype about this single’s conference and ALL singles were encouraged to attend. The theme of the conference was, “Single and Satisfied” hahahaha!!!

The first day of the conference, I walked into the cathedral that sits over 10,000 people and about 1/4th of the seats were occupied. All singles strutted in wearing their best outfits. The air was filled with a buzz of excitement. We are single and satisfied! At least this is what they wanted us to believe. Hmmmm

I am enthralled in the moment and highly anticipate what is to come. I’ve been hearing about this conference for weeks and now this moment has arrived. The first to speak is the pastor of this 25,000 plus congregation, whom happens to be married for nearly 20yrs, however he proclaimed all in attendance should be satisfied with being single…hmmm.

I have to admit I was having an internal conflict; mind vs. spirit. My mind was saying, “Single and Satisfied”, but my spirit was saying, “Yeah, I don’t agree with that.”

Well, I’m here now and the hype is in the air. Every time a speaker would proclaim, “Single and Satisfied!!!!” the attendees would stand to their feet with shouts and applauds, but I would just sit there somewhat bewildered. Then I began to question myself, “Why are we here?” The fact of the matter still holds that I was truly single, but not sure that I was satisfied.

Oh this did it for me! There was a panel of very successful, beautiful, and of course single women. I’m talking attorneys, authors, governmental officials, pastors, models these women were on top of their game, at least when it came to their careers. Each time one of these very successful women spoke of how they were satisfied with their house, car, career, and raising children alone; it made me feel sad. It made me feel hopeless. It confirmed my feelings that I am Single and NOT Satisfied.

I felt sad for these women because God never intended for woman to walk alone. And because they have given up on hope of having a spouse they want others to buy into their fallacy of being single and satisfied. I am an executive professional single woman and understand how singleness can befall upon one. I continue to matriculate in the course of my singleness, but I am not satisfied.

I(the woman) was created to be a helpmeet/helpmate>>wife. Innately God has given me(the woman) a nurturing spirit and the canon of influence to help my husband to rule and subdue his dominion. I came under the sub junction of the head(Adam>>the husband). I was not originally designed to be the head of my household or to carry both roles of mother and father. I am Single and NOT Satisfied.
