I NEED A DEEP MAN

I need a deep man
A man who will look into the mirror and diagnose his own shit
I need a someone who will not be afraid to sit
and talk with me as I deliberate over my day of chaotic prose
I need a deeper man who will not be afraid of the word DEEP
A man who will open his heart to the transforming power of the totality of what God has for him to embrace within this woman who is as deep as the Nile and can swim it too...
I need a deep man who can run his fingers through my nappy hair and not whence at cottony softness that embellishes this crown
He has to be deeper than me to contain this heart that dreams of a life poured into a cast iron skillet and fried up to perfection
These thighs are not small or improperly structured to fit around his
But they are perfection as God has molded me to him
Yes, he has to be deep and not afraid of his own greatness or mine
Deeper...
It is only a state of freedom and he must be deeply free...
to be with me...

Take time every day to plan and think ahead about the ways in which you can extend the life of your treasures and rid yourself of the unnecessary fodder that would steal time and opportunity if left unchecked. Even say out loud, "My time is valuable because it is the conduit through which my life flows. My life is valuable because of how I cherish my time." Be Encouraged, Speak Life!

"I see little reason to delay giving when so much good can be achieved through supporting worthwhile causes today." -- Chuck Feeney, visionary philanthropist and founder of The Atlantic Philanthropies.

GOOD MORNING! In my morning meditation walk at work, I was encouraged by Holy Spirit to remember and to remind you that GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN US THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD! I want to encourage you to NEVER let anyone or any circumstance outside of you change, manipulate, contort or distort who God (CREATOR) created you to be! YOU ARE: Fearfully and wonderfully made and nothing less The head and not the tail and nothing less Above and not beneath and nothing less The righteousness of God and nothing less The manifested hope of times past and nothing less BECAUSE GOD IS GREATINYOU, YOU ARE GREATER THAN WHERE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW AND NOTHING LESS! Head up! Shoulders back! Chest out! Now, let's go get it! Loving YOU to Life! Dorothea Manley, Project Speak Life
