Why I dont mess wit my mama

She gets some stuff for the midgets for school so I tell her I would send her money to pay for it when I got paid again. I had no idea how much it came to initially but I figure 100 should more than cover it. Rather than just let me send her the $100, she calls me for my card information so she can just pay the bill directly online. No problem. Turns out the bill is only about $60.

Why this woman thinks I owe her the other $40? LOL And she really mad about it, son!

Love is...

Love is.... interesting.

The older and wiser you get, the more you realize that it doesn't always look the way you've believed most of your life that it should. It isn't this fantasy feeling that comes over you and makes you vulnerable and fearful of somebody now having an ability to break you into pieces. Real love doesn't transform you into some would-be victim. Love in its realest sense empowers you because the things that draw you to a person reflect the best parts of YOU. That's the kind of love that makes you stronger, encouraged and determined to be even more awesome than you suddenly see that you are. So even when it doesn't come in the package you're expecting, you appreciate having it in whatever way that you do. That's a lesson I learned this week. If you waste too much time wishing things were more, you never take the time to appreciate how they are. Its more than acceptance - that sounds like surrender or some kind of settle. Its awakening. Its ... epiphany. Its everything.
