Interracial Love
Love is a beautiful thing especially when it’s with the right person. We all deserve happiness. Love has no color.
Brand New Relationship
I like to compare
A brand new relationship
To a brand new car
When a car is new
You wash and wax it
Very careful how you drive it
You don’t want to eat in it
Don’t want nobody parking near it
All because you don’t want
Anything to ruin the newness
As time goes by you
Become comfortable
To eat in it
And you don’t wash or wax it as much
Slack up doing the things
That you use to
Don’t take it in to check
To see if it needs repair
Unless you see or hear
A sign of trouble
Otherwise you only
Take it in once a year
For an inspection
Everything is wonderful
In the beginning when
The car was brand new
It was given lots of attention
Well a relationship/ marriage
Can be looked at the same way
Everything was great
In the beginning when
Things were new
That’s all good but what
Happens when scratches
Bumps and dents happen
Do you trade it in
To get a new one
No that’s not what you do
Have the mindset
That if you take care of it
It will take care of you
A Trade in
Could never become a classic
Have the 30 day tags
Turn into classic
I don’t know about you
But I want something that’s true
That holds value
Any relationship can make it
When it’s all brand new
What happens when trouble
Comes along
Do you stay or run along
Remember it’s not
About the easy stuff
It’s about the hard
So what will you do
Will you make the necessary
Repair to your relationship
When it needs it
Or treat it like an old car
And trade it in
I’m just sayin
Fear Not
Fear causes doubt it can destroy something before it even gets started. Fear even puts thoughts into your mind that isn’t even true. Fear robs you so don’t allow it to.
The Bible says:
1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Franklin Roosevelt once said “The only thing to fear is fear itself”.
Absolute freedom is being fearless. So enjoy your freedom and set yourself free.
Spell My Name
I love the name that my mother gave to me and how she spelled it. It may come off as small, trivial and insignificant I just can’t stand when someone misspells my name. I went through that all my life and it gets under my skin. Grrrrrrrr. People who know me truly knows how to spell my name properly. There are many ways to spell my name but they are all wrong except for one. To me misspelling someone’s name is the same as mispronouncing it. It’s just wrong! My name is not spelled Tomeka, Tamika, Temeka and definitely not Tameka. It’s spelled Tameeka. I thank those who cares in advance. The ones who don’t and gets it wrong I will just ignore them.
I’m just kidding ummmmm no I’m not. Well just a little.
We Deserve To Be Lifted Up
First off everyone knows that I enjoy inspiring and encouraging still we have to discuss what’s going on in the black community. The way black women are treated it’s a disgrace and there really isn’t any excuses for it. Too many people are pointing fingers and no one is taking ownership for what’s happening. Or coming up with solutions for the hate that’s going on. Black women are constantly being put down especially in music. I pray that God steps in and show us how to go about breaking this chain of hate. It’s heartbreaking. There are good black men saying positive things about black women but their voices are being drowned out. I just feel that the hateful black men are hurt little boys. Yes I said it. It needs to stop.
What’s Tameeka Listening To?
I am a music lover. Teena Marie broke down racial barriers with her voice. She is simply amazing. I love all of her music and had a hard time choosing which song that I was going to share. Check it out:
