I like music, dancing, and going out to nice restaurants...I like romantic nights with someone of strong interest...weekend getaways...I enjoy watching football games on Sunday, but when the season is over , Just chilling at home watching a good movie.
Good Black Men are among 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 Armani Suit or drive a Lexus. He might not have a "body like Tyson with a Denzel face." As I've matured,I realize it's better to find someone who has 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, 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 your every requirement. 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 stereotypes. 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. I hope to meet not only these men but also the women that appreciate them.
"Appearance is an image we all see each other as. To really care for, like, or have love for another is to know who they are in the inside. You can't care, like or love someone just by their outside appearance, it's what's inside that really matters."

Life is a theater - Invite your audience carefully. Not everyone is healthy enough to have a front row seat in our lives. There are some people in your life that need to be loved from a distance. It's amazing what you can accomplish when you let go, or at least minimize, your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not-going-anywhere relationships/friendships!Observe the relationships around you. Pay attention. Which ones encourage and which ones discourage? Which ones are on a path of growth uphill and which ones are going downhill? When you leave certain people, do you feel better or feel worse? Which ones always have drama or don't really understand, know or appreciate you?The more you seek love of God, quality, respect, growth, peace of mind and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in the FRONT ROW and who should be moved to the balcony of your life.You cannot change the people around you....but you can change the people you are around!(Color Purple) My all time favorite, Claudin, Cooley High

First and foremost Jesus for having the courage and heart to die for us and my mother for her strength. My Grandmother (Rosie) for being so loving and kind. My family because no matter what they pull together when it comes down to it.
