I want to know what motivates an individual...what drives them...what do they believe...what do they believe in...what do they live for and for what, would they be willing to die?</I><BR/><BR/>Wow...<BR/><BR/>Interestingly, I was in the bookstore on Saturday night, and a young man asked me all those hard questions and then some on a more spiritual tip... Freaked me out something terrible, and mentally drained me... but it made me take a hard look at what I believe and where I want to go... <BR/><BR/>Those are hard questions, and questions that are enough to scare a man away... maybe because it forces that man to take a good long hard look at himself in the mirror... much of which the average person may not want to do.<BR/><BR/>At least you ask the hard questions... I suffer from looking at a dude and thinking "Negro, you look like you gonna mess my credit up!" LOL!<BR/><BR/>But don't settle, Sharon... There's no worse feeling in the world of getting with someone and thinking "dang, I KNEW something didn't sit well with me when it came to this man!" Geez.<BR/><BR/>I'm like this... I've prayed about my mate issues, said amen and goodnight. If God has someone for me, well, it's worth waiting on...<BR/><BR/>Really though...<BR/><BR/>Good post as always, Oldgirl.LadyLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14895667783148669410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19211835.post-1144105354043334282006-04-03T19:02:00.000-04:002006-04-03T19:02:00.000-04:00I love Norah Jones...you should try some of her ot...I love Norah Jones...you should try some of her other stuff...just as good...if you want a cd let me know..<BR/><BR/>I don't think it's wrong to question...in fact you have some really good ones...i'm curious...do you launch right into them...or do you give it some time...Men are skittish...and if we give them time we'll find out what we need to know...and whether to let them go...<BR/><BR/>Self reflection is good...Honesty with yourself is even better...when you start admitting the truth to yourself...the answers come clearer and quicker...I will say your man is coming...and i hope mine is with him LOLDJ Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00451826686021671892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19211835.post-1144075500571055742006-04-03T10:45:00.000-04:002006-04-03T10:45:00.000-04:00Gosh Sharon -- I feel like I could've written this...Gosh Sharon -- I feel like I could've written this post.<BR/><BR/>I received a keyboard for my 40th birthday because I'm teaching myself to play and one of the preprogrammed songs is "Don't Know Why". I love this song. But it haunts me.<BR/><BR/>I am also a 41-year old single woman. Of course, I've been married twice and I have all but convinced myself that I will never get it right.<BR/><BR/>I am also a runner. I know I am. Why do I run? I don't know. I, very recently have decided to stop running and allow the man in my life to love me. I remember years ago my second husband said these words to me, "All I ever wanted to do was love you." Why do I have a hard time allowing people to love me? God only knows and I won't do my self-analysis in your comment section.<BR/><BR/>Regarding your inquisitiveness, I share that attribute too, however, I have found that I gain more knowledge about a person's personality by observing their actions. People will generally say what they think you want to hear but actions don't lie.chelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15468273174800571759noreply@blogger.com
