| View Show | Create Your OwnSTILL I RISE--YOU MAY WRITE ME DOWN IN HISTORY WITH YOUR BITTER, TWISTED LIES, YOU MAY TROD ME IN THE VERY DIRT BUT STILL, LIKE DUST, I'LL RISE.DOES MY SASSINESS UPSET YOU? WHY ARE YOU BESET WITH GLOOM? 'CAUSE I WALK LIKE I'VE GOT OIL WELLS PUMPING IN MY LIVING ROOM.JUST LIKE MOONS AND LIKE SUNS, WITH THE CERTAINTY OF TIDES, JUST LIKE HOPES SPRINGING HIGH, STILL I'LL RISE.DID YOU WANT TO SEE ME BROKEN? BOWED HEAD AND LOWERED EYES? SHOULDERS FALLING DOWN LIKE TEARDROPS. WEAKENED BY MY SOULFUL CRIES.DOES MY HAUGHTINESS OFFEND YOU? DON'T YOU TAKE IT AWFUL HARD 'CAUSE I LAUGH LIKE I'VE GOT GOLD MINES DIGGIN' IN MY OWN BACK YARD.YOU MAY SHOOT ME WITH YOUR WORDS, YOU MAY CUT ME WITH YOUR EYES, YOU MAY KILL ME WITH YOUR HATEFULNESS, BUT STILL, LIKE AIR, I'LL RISE.DOES MY SEXINESS UPSET YOU? DOES IT COME AS A SURPRISE THAT I DANCE LIKE I'VE GOT DIAMONDS AT THE MEETING OF MY THIGHS?OUT OF THE HUTS OF HISTORY'S SHAME, I RISE, UP FROM A PAST THAT'S ROOTED IN PAIN, I RISE, I'M A BLACK OCEAN, LEAPING AND WIDE, WELLING AND SWELLING I BEAR IN THE TIDE. LEAVING BEHIND NIGHTS OF TERROR AND FEAR, I RISE, INTO A DAYBREAK THAT'S WONDROUSLY CLEAR, I RISE, BRINGING THE GIFTS THAT MY ANCESTORS GAVE, I AM THE DREAM AND THE HOPE OF THE SLAVE. I RISE, I RISE, I RISE --Maya Angelou "THE SIGNIFICANCE OF A ROSE IS MARKED BY FAVOR, SUCCESS, OR EASE OF EXECUTION." Years ago, someone told me about what a rose does...it may bend, break or even get cut down but it comes back to bloom again and blooms much bigger. I am first a daughter, granddaughter, sister, neice, cousin, mother, aunt and a real/true friend. When meeting and conversing with me, most people have been able to warm up to me immediately and it'll be like you've known me a long period of time. I'm not a woman to judge others. We all have faults so I don't have a heaven nor a hell to put nobody in plus I tend to give a person the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise. Overall, I can be one's true friend to the end, the one who will be there for you when no one else is around. How can I say all of this? It's because I've experienced the ill treament (from people I thought were my friends but actually took advantage of me) and I vowed that I would never be that type of person toward others. A few have made their own perception about me but truly don't know the real me and never really got to know and just wanted what they could get from me. On a personal note, I want to thank my "true friends" who've stuck by me through thick and thin; who opened my eyes to the RAW TRUTH (especially when I didn't want to accept it); never held back their words; just real people who say what they mean and mean what they say. I am so fortunate of their friendship and I love them dearly.

My Interests

Quality time with family & close friends, church, movies, concerts, plays, reading, being on the computer, cooking, amusement parks, shopping, sightseeing, traveling

I'd like to meet:

People from different nationalities and make long lasting meaningful friendships, who give & receive respect, honest, trustworthy, not rude, compassionate, have a sense of humor, not argumentative, won't take people for granted, not users or abusers. Most of all, whole human beings who are god-fearing (not just a love for God), not judgmental, loves unconditionally, etc. As always, I enjoy intelligent conversation from friendly individuals on a intellectual, mental, & spiritual level. WORD TO THE WISE THOUGH, I DO NOT GIVE DRAMA SO PLEASE DO NOT BRING DRAMA TO ME...Peace!
