My White Knight

Yes I am for human rights, for my black community to respect one another and get along. However I can still be attracted to what I am attracted to and still want the best for everyone at the end of the day. Hey I just want my white knight. Can a black man be a knight? Sure for someone else. I don’t have self-hatred I love the skin that I am in. If it’s within God’s Will let people love who they want wish them well and be happy for them.

I will be his prayer partner, best friend, biggest cheerleader, his rib and his chocolate bar nice as well as sweet. He’ll be my prayer partner, best friend, knight, and my vanilla ice cream. After God and my children he will be my everything. What a wonderful dream come true!

The Ozzy and Sharon Split

I know what you are thinking “What?!? Tameeka is writing about Ozzy? Yes I am. Everyone knows that I love music and yes I enjoy some of Ozzy Osbourne’s music. This couple are in their sixties and are splitting up Ozzy is 67 and Sharon is 63. They are at social security ages. Things are so messed now a days. 

In a marriage there is no I in the word team. A husband and I wife are a team. My question is what made Ozzy do this? What made him cheat? I know that Sharon is busy did he feel neglected? I am not making excuses for Ozzy and it’s not okay to cheat still I would love to hear what he has to say.

I know that’s it’s hard being famous I never will be famous nor do I want to be. Celebrities can have the fame it’s not worth the headache. More than likely the woman that he was with did it because he is famous. One thing a man most keep in mind whether they are rich, famous, handsome, successful, poor etc if you are involved with a woman and you guys are happy a woman who tries to pursue you is no good. That woman wants what you have and want your woman’s happiness. Mature strong minded people understand that not everyone have the same chemistry together everyone is not meant to be your wife or husband. Everyone aren’t dynamite.If you have a good thing don’t mess it up it is just not worth it.

So the question is should Sharon stay or go? I guess it’s all about what she is willing to take. Cheating is one of the main reasons why marriages end. I just pray for marriages that are in trouble and the good marriages to stay strong. We know who is responsible for a marriage failing the evil one he comes to kill, steal and destroy. We can not let him win. God is in control and He will do what He sees fit.

A Noose Around A Brother’s Neck

Yes child support is for children of every race this is understood. I am writing this pertaining to a video.So there’s a guy whose video that I came across on YouTube claiming that child support is a noose around a black man’s neck. The guy who made the video claimed that it was a way to keep a black man down. Let me start off by saying two things one is that the guy is biased against women and two as long as I watch YouTube I will not run out of things to write about. Feeling the way that I felt I still watched the video in it’s entirety and it interested me so much that I had to blog about. Just couldn’t pass up this topic it is a hot one. 

There are so many stories that I have pertaining to mothers, fathers and child support. The situation has plenty of blame to go around. It’s ashame that the government has to get involved to make a parent do right. Yes there are some women who pay child support however it’s mostly men. It makes me upset when people starts to point fingers just do what you are suppose to do as a parent. When you get involved with a person think are they a person that you can see yourself marrying or having children with them? If the answer is no then don’t risk the chance of being tied to that person with a lifetime commitment.  Are there some spiteful money hungry women who use the money on other things besides their children? Yes but you saw the signs there are always signs you just choose to ignore the red flags. Am I saying that a person deserves to be stressed out forever with drama? No but don’t take a chance and gamble. When a person shows you who they are believe them.

Indeed there is a time to be private and there’s a time to help with your story. Imagine if no one shared their testimonies and stories it’s important to encourage as many people as we can. It may help someone out and that’s an awesome thing. As I have shared I am a single parent of two sons and I am doing as best as I can WITHOUT child support. My children’s father was in prison for basically ten years and I did NOT put him on child support. Even while a person is in prison they can be placed on child support I choose to opt out of that choice. My ex has been out since November and has Not seen his children after ten years. Does it make me upset how he treats our children? Yes of course however I place things into God’s hands He will handle things. I’m Not spiteful here’s why I have Not sought child support the agent would throw him back into jail and that doesn’t do either one of us any good. I’m giving him time to get on his feet and an opportunity to do what he can however I have a time limit trust me.

Let’s look at things like this why would a person try to hurt another? Perhaps there are still feelings there I do Not have feelings for my ex it’s about our children. Our children have been through enough and do Not deserve any additional heartache. If you love your children make it about your children Not about your ex. The children did not ask to come here. Some of you mothers quit trying to hurt the father by digging into his pockets in the hopes that no woman will want him because we all know that it won’t happen. Fathers child support is not worth more than time spent with your children. Call your children more often, visit them, and yes you can date as well as move on however take your children with you. Our ex is our past but our children are a lifetime commitment honor it  and don’t ever forget that. Put your grownup pants on and co-parent properly.

The Pleasure and Pain of Sexting

You guys already know that eventually I was going to go there. Here on Be Lifted the things that are thought about are talked about. I keep it positive always. Still  we can’t ignore situations they won’t go away. In my opinion sexting is something that married people can do to keep things interesting. Surprise your spouse with something tasteful and something that you feel comfortable doing. Let’s not act like intimacy is suppose to be boring even God said to be fruitful and multiple. Did He say vegetable? I rest my case.

The pain of sexting is doing it for someone that you are not married to. Definitely would Not advise that at all!!! It will back fire it always does you better think before you press the send button. It takes a lot of trust and know that there are a whole lot people walking around who should Not be trusted. Everyone doesn’t deserve a VIP pass. If there are Not your spouse think it over.

Balance Is Key

Never forget the people who was there for you when you had no one. They are the ones who you will need again this is a true fact. God puts everyone in our lives for a reason so balancing your friends and new relationship is key. It’s important to keep in contact with your friends. You never want it to come off as you only contact them when there is a problem. Friendship is a two way street if you don’t have time to talk a simple text is fine too anything to show a person that you are thinking about them. I get that life gets busy but if we really want to time can be taken out it’s all about priorities. One has to have the want to to do. Yeah I said it.

Relationships and marriages are completely different don’t get it twisted people can walk away from a relationship not so for a marriage. I am not saying not to give a relationship your all. After all relationships has to happen prior to marriage so I get it. What I am saying is don’t forget the people who will be there if the relationship goes wrong. As far as I am concerned best friends are not friends they are family. Family is for life through ups and downs as well as thick and thin. Proverbs 18:24

A man [that hath] friends must shew himself: and there is a friend [that] stickers closer than a brother.

 

The Perfect Fit

There are so many books

On how to find love

Well I am thankful to God

That I have not read none of them

Waiting on God is what I have done

In my mind I truly believe that

There’s someone for everyone

The journey with us

Has only just begun

You and I have so much fun

We both love the same music

Movies and TV shows

Have life experiences that has

Helped one another to grow

Aren’t afraid to be goofy

So God has to be

A part of this

I could not have

Found a better love

Even if I were to dream it

We are a perfect fit

Like an echo of finesse

Our love is a true

Product of happiness

It’s so strong

My heart with yours

Is where it belongs

Being with you is wonderful

I could never go wrong

Some people search for a lifetime

To find a love like ours

Like a lovely flower

I never want to stop

Seeing you as being beautiful

You make living so meaningful

I have you

And I won’t let go

I love you so

God has given me a kiss

And a big hug from heaven

When He sent you to me

You are such a blessing

We are truly meant

You and I

Are the perfect fit
