Good Black Men are indeed all around us. We
pass them on the streets,
in the malls and the halls at work. Most we
can't see because we
don't know what a good man really looks like.
He
usually isn't flashy
enough
or rich enough to turn our heads. He might not
wear a suit or push a
Lexus. He might not have a body like Tyson
with a Denzel face. But,
as
you mature; you realize it's better to find
someone who's got your
back
rather than someone who turns your head.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ recognize. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A good man doesn't agree wholeheartedly with
everything you say. He
doesn't just tell you what you want to hear
and do the opposite. He
doesn't declare how sensitive, sweet, caring,
sincere, yada, yada he
is
(He won't have to because it shows).
He has his own opinions and yours may clash,
but he doesn't have to
degrade you to prove he's right. He even
admits at times to being
wrong,
especially if you are willing to do the same.
A good man is not going
to meet every item on your checklist. He is
human with frailties and
faults mixed in with all of his wonderful,
strong attributes. He
needs
your love and respect. ~~~~~~~~~~Hello!
He needs to feel that you don't live to catch
him doing something
wrong
so you can declare, Aha! I knew you were a
dog!! A good man isn't
insecure about his women having great
achievements.
In fact he is her number one supporter and
becomes disappointed with
her when she begins
to lose herself, for the sake of not hurting
his feelings, or just
want
to make him happy.
His happiness comes with seeing her excel in
her dreams and
accomplishing her goals. For as she excels and
is exalted, a good
woman
will bring her good man right along with her.
A good man doesn't
necessarily give you a huge birthday or
Valentine's gift.
He shows his love in the ways that are
comfortable to him.
Don't judge him by TV standards.
No one is really living a fairy-tale.
You'll miss out on your own fairy tale by
buying into the myth that
our men are no good.
It's Just not true.
Black Men, we salute you, and thank you for
who you are and all
you've done.
Pass this along to a few women that need to
read it ... so that they
can recognize a Good Black Man.
