Blair Underwood

Just like the headline says, this page/board is where you can discuss the stuff that we didn't cover in today's issue. (It's sort of like feedback with a twist) Remember, NO name calling, racial taunting, graphic sex talk and vulgarity in general, PLEASE.

EUR MOTIVATIONAL NOTE

The following is an excerpt from the book "You Deserve More: Desperation is a Terrible Perfume to Wear" written by Jewel Diamond Taylor.

We met and you said you would call. We danced and you said you would call.

We made love and you said you would call. We laughed and you said you would call. We made plans and you said you would call. I asked myself every day, "Why hasn't he called?"

Because you never answered my call, that WAS my answer. I now clearly see --- you weren't ALL that into me.

Sitting by the phone all day --- I gave my power away. Instead of knowing I deserve more, I had dropped my crown on the floor.

I was living in your sunshine. What happened to mine? Why did I think only you could make me shine?

Real love answers the phone. Real love comes home. Real love is strong and true. It shouldn't leave me feeling black and blue.

You ignored me and I thought this was rejection. I see now, this separation is my God's protection. I couldn't do it --- so I believe God closed that door because I'm precious in His sight. I deserve more.
