Excerpt from The Day I Met "Mr. Perfect"

He tells no lies. He does no wrong. He tells you exactly what you want to hear.

Mr. Perfect married Ms. Guilty. Yet, Ms. Guilty aka "Mrs. Perfect" longed for an affair with The Flawed Man...

The Flawed Man loved Ms. Guilty, however he hid behind the shadows of Mr. Perfect because he always viewed him as superior...so his love for Ms. Guilty was never revealed. Sadly, just as The Flawed Man lived, he was killed...oops, I mean, he died. You see, Mr.Perfect knew about The Flawed Man's intentions of stealing his blushing bride, so...he did what any perfect man would do. He protected what was his...or did he? You see, its not that simple. Ms. Guilty also was filled with anger because The Flawed Man told her time and time again that he had a plan to wisk her away...and she believed him. But how many false promises can you forgive before you realize that the term"false promise" is just a jazzed up lie?

Facing Fear.

Who knew? I can say most assuredly that I didn't. It was Wednesday, February 23, 2011 when I was asked to sing "I Believe in You and Me" with a student from Westbury...over the PA during the morning announcements. For years, I have been trying to overcome my fear of singing so that I can use my gift to inspire and deliver the messages God has placed upon my heart. Well, I guess since my method of overcoming (which was not moving at all) was not working, God put me in a place where it was a bit harder to say "no". I was called out of class by a co-worker, and I assumed that she needed to speak to me regarding "teacher business". As soon as I walked into the hallway, it was an AMBUSH! LOL...Ms. Johnson, along with another co-worker and a student gave me the lyrics, and said " Can you sing this excerpt from the song?" I was like," Wow"...Way to put me on blast! We had to sing ON THE SPOT... and this is the funny part. This is the excerpt we were singing:
                                                                              "I believe in dreams again
                                                                              I believe that love will never end
                                                                              And like the river finds the sea
                                                                              I was lost
                                                                              And now I'm free
                                                                              'Cause I believe in you and me"

I kept telling myself that this is so random, but strangely, I received a text message from my "Uncle" in the ministry, saying "Stuff does not just happen. There is a divine purpose for everything..." As if that didn't convict me, about an hour later on Pandora, "Seasons" came on...all I remember is "Walk into your season". So I knew it was time...no matter how uncomfortable it was for me. And trust, it was the most uncomfortable I have felt in a long time...high school campus? The most CRITICAL beings ever! I had to keep telling the enemy to leave my presence because he had me doubting myself...however, I was able to overcome negativity with positivity. Well, here it is Monday Feb 28, 2011 and...I DID IT! A small part, but a HUGE step in my escape from confinement.
