Me.




I am a black single mother. I sit on the dawn of my own greatest. Future generations will be blessed because of my obedience to God and to my spirit. I refuse to follow any other path but the one set before me. I love creation and its Maker. I understand the power of giving. I understand that I must let my light shine as it is a reflection of the One that lives in me, through me and around me. I am blessed for having the opportunity to parent such a wonderful child. I am blessed through adversity and humbled through prosperity. I am proud to be a believer. I strive to be a woman of integrity even though some days I may fail. I try. I love people. I give from my heart in the most genuine way. My intent is never to harm. I am strong. I know only a few can handle me in my weakness and can provide true comfort. I am God's child.

me.

My "education" at home with my mother, at school, on my neighborhood playgrounds, and at church, all placed males in the middle of the universe. My digestion of the 1970s American popular culture in the form of television, film, ads, and music only added to my training, so that by as early as age nine or ten I saw females, includ

If I was your girlfriend

Yeah, another Prince discussion. This man has saved my soul through the years. A follow Prince fan always refers to Prince as the ultimate "pimp". He speaks of how smooooooth Prince is lyrically. I came across the video for "If I Was Your Girlfriend," taken from the Sign of the times film. I started gigglin'. Prince IS a pimp. So clever. Witty. Smooth. Just runnin' game but damn, I'd fall for it. The title alone would get me..... IF I WAS UR GIRLFRIEND - PRINCE
