He laid hands on me Strong manly hands And found the essence of me I craved his love and he was crazy about me We were inseparable There was no him without me So, they’d tease us about marriage and children My forever love, his Oshun, his deity.

There is an old story about a bird who was caught in a pile of dung and began singing, her singing was heard by a cat or a fox who quickly came along and gobbled her up, so sad.

The more and more I talk to women who are working towards purposeful and successful lives is the more I ask myself, "What's the difference between an independent woman and a gold digger?" There really isn't much of a difference
