Life Changes

I am not the same person I was ten years ago. Hell, I’m not the same person I was five years ago. I have changed dramatically since the 90’s. My taste in clothing, music even men have changed. But I see this change as a good thing. I have ventured out and tried new things; I guess you can call it growth. With maturity comes growth. I hear people say, “Girl why are you doing that”. Hmm, because I want to try something different. There is so much more to life than what you’re accustom to.

Many people are afraid of change. I used to be like that. But I came to this realization that I wanted more. I wanted to see and experience more. I saw my friends moving on without me. My friends were vacationing in other places and doing amazing things. And where was I, sitting in St. Louis looking stupid with a dead end job and no degree.

So I got up off my behind, went back to school, got my degree and started taking trips out of town. I started going to different restaurants, shopping at different stores. I increased my tasted in food. I no longer limited myself to soul food, although I love it so.

I have met some wonderful people from various backgrounds and learned so many things. Through this growth my attitude has changed tremendously. I am more open minded to ideas.

Change is good!!! I look forward to increasing my knowledge and experiencing new things.

 

Love

When dealing with matters of the heart, is love enough. I so, no it's not. You hear people say, "All you need is love, the rest will fall in place". It's takes more than love to sustain a healthy relationship. Yes, love is a big part of it. But what is love? Is love being able to finish my sentence for me? Is love knowing what I'm thinking before I can say it? Love is that and much more, but it's not enough

To have a healthy relationship with your significant other you must be friends first. And both should be in the mind frame of being in a relationship. The worst thing you can do is jump into a relationship when your not ready, just for the sake of saying, "I'm in a relationship".

When we are in a relationship, were looking for a financial, mental and emotional support, great sex and partnership. All these are needed to for a healthy relationship. Love this the glue that holds all this together.

These are just some of my thoughts about love. I'm going leave you guys with a song.
