Just a Reminder He Loves me!

So It's Valentine's Day and me being the single Diva I am, I can't say I wanted to avoid the day or the couples and PDA...

I truly embrace the Day of love but...

My weekend was so great... I had an unique opportunity to see the
The Alvin Ailey American Dance Company (http://www.alvinailey.org);

It was awesome the seats were great (shouts to row 7) and my dates were awesome as well (Sherelle and Tiffany)
The Dancers were so powerful, they began with a Tribute to Otis Redding and ended the showing with a piece called "Love Stories" a unique blend of popular dances moves from theater to the dancehall
Not to mention the male dancers who illustrate exactly what the male form should look like and displayed it all so well while remaining tasteful and poised. I enjoyed every slow intentional moment!

Ok fast forward
V-day 2010

I began the day with the love of my life and expressing my gratitude for His continual love and mercy! I was reminded during the sermon that God loves me….Actively! Thank you God!

Got a few random text messages (ugh)

Continued with an awesome lunch with the ladies, which is always an adventure and the greatest conversation!

To the house I go Balloons and flowers for my mom, who always gets me a tangible expression of her love for V-day however this year she didn’t and it began my downward spiral into self afflicted internal wounds with thoughts like no one loves me, I should just go to sleep until Monday, etc . Not to mention someone is playing games with my heart and I just realized it and felt a lil stupid.

But then it hit me I am loved and loved well
I am beautiful and worthy of so much

God loves me so much that he does not allow just anything for me, so no day of any year should ever make me feel less than the Love God actively bestows upon me. He always provides the best (Alvin Ailey dancers row 7 yea) So I played Beautiful flower 3 times and I was reminded that GOD LOVES ME and I He!
Happy Valentine’s Day!

This is a song for every girl who's
Ever been through something she thought she couldn't make it through
I sing these words because
I was that girl too
Wanting something better than this
But who do I turn to

Now we're moving from the darkness into the light
This is the defining moment of our lives

'Cause you're beautiful like a flower
More valuable than a diamond
You are powerful like a fire
You can heal the world with your mind

There is nothing in the world that you cannot do
When you believe in you, who are beautiful
Yeah, you, who are brilliant
Yeah, you, who are powerful
Yeah, you, who are resilient – India Arie (Beautiful Flower)
