Should He Tell Her..........

Hello Beautiful People.... I am Back ....................................... : )

I have a topic that is very interesting to me and would like your feedback on this....

This topic was written into "Strawberry Letter" franchise that is so popular on "The Steve Harvey Morning Show".

Topic: Should I tell her?

Dear Morning Crew,

I've been divorced for over five years and my ex -wife has since remarried. The problem is that we are still sleeping together but when I went to her house to get some (cookie) I looked through the living room window and my Lil brother was getting some cookie (with milk). We had an agreement that we would never date each other's women past or present. They don't know that I saw them. Now weeks have past and I saw my brother creeping over again so I followed him and what I saw this time was worse, he wasn't getting cookies and milk, he was getting it from her husband. I never knew that my brother was g*y! Should I tell her?

What I think:

This is something else and I do not know If I would tell her. This is a situation that is too much to deal with. I know if I was him, I would leave her alone for good.

*What do my Beautiful People think?

Because mamasgirlalexis would love to know....

Relationships with self....

Relationships with self.

Do you think that you should date yourself, so that you can learn yourself?

Do you believe that you should love yourself better then someone else can love you?

I believe that you should love yourself and date yourself.

Take the time out to love yourself and know what you like and dislike.

We all go through our growing pains and that is what I am going through at this time in my life.

When I was in my twenties, I just knew what I liked within myself and what I wanted in a man.

Now, that I am in my thirties, my choices and decisions have changed.

My choices in friends, career and men has changed for me.

Friends: I know what a real friend is:
1. A friend is someone that will not judge you
2. A person that genuinely cares and is there for you through thick and thin
3. Someone that will make you laugh and provide a shoulder for your tears
4. Someone that respects you
5. Someone that talks bad about you
6. Disagree to agree, communicate and still remain friends after a falling out

I could go on and on with this list, I know you get my drift about a real, true friend

Career:
My career choices have changed just a little.
I have decided to take a course in medical billing & coding and then I will love to take up
Sonography or X-Ray Technician.

My dream of being a writer and photographer will not change. I am currently working on some projects. Once I get things together, I will share my photos with you. You will find out more about my special projects soon enough.

Men: OMG, LOL....................
I love men and I just love men.
I just do not like the games, lies and more games that many men play.

I will not be bothered anymore when I feel like a man is no good for me. Has no good intentions for me. I like to be on the same page with him, conversant, hang out and respect each other's point of views. I like to have my fun as well, I am honest and I like to let him know how I feel.
I like to communicate, because communication is very important in any relationship.

Fun you ask: My fun is getting to know him. The first stages is the greatest, the mystery behind him, the likes and dislikes of him ( DO not want many dislikes). Hanging out, conversing, finding out that you do have many things in common, to that first kiss. I am a person that enjoys kissing. I can kiss for hours, and did I just say that I can kiss for hours, minutes, seconds, days and days. LOL................ I may love to kiss, however I do not kiss just anyone. Repeat: Do not kiss just anyone.

This is just some of the fun ..................................... : )

Now, dating yourself:
Take yourself to the movies and buy a nice dinner for self. ( Just 1 bill ) : )
Buy yourself beautiful flowers, for the beautiful person you is:
Take yourself on trips, buy yourself those diamonds.
Learn yourself and be good to self.

Note: There is nothing wrong with someone else doing this for you.
When you do not have that someone and these are things you like, why not do it for yourself....
Even if you have that person that is doing this, still do things for self, pamper and love self always....

Also, I am upgrading myself. That is getting that better job , career and school.
I did some college when I was living in another state. I will be going back to school, just like I mentioned previously. Upgrade the better side of you and who you am, try to not settle for just anything.

Do not try, just do because trying is a failure.
Thanks sis, my sister told me this from one of her friends and it is true. It is so easy to give advice and so hard for self to take own advice. It is a work in the positive direction of self and self proclaimed experience. Take on those experiences and learn from them, be self and change for the better. Be loved, be life and be you.....

Love you beautiful people, I am back............................... : )

Hello, I know I have been missing in action ( MIA ). I will be back soon to write, write and write!

Have a great, safe and blessed weekend!

Eyes of GOD

I have a great poem that a friend/co-worker allowed for me to read and then she passed this great poem out to each co-worker on our team. I would like to share this poem with you all because it is uplifting and very inspirational.


* His eyes are looking to and fro seeking whom he can send a blessing to.
He looks upon us so lovingly.
The eyes that watch over our souls are happy, angry and sometimes sad.
God's eyes see the beginning and the end of our lives. They are the windows of our soul.

Will we touch his heart enough that the course of our life will change?
Will we recognize that he knows all and sees all.
Will our discernment let us recognize what he is seeing is me?
He watches as his children live a life before him with no thought that it pains
him to see our conduct.
We have no appreciation of the great sacrifice of his son Jesus so that we can
be free of the curse of the forbidden tree.
What we have given in return is to live our lives in a manner we see fit.
Decisions made without thinking and praying about it; because we have
forgotten to seek him for an answer.
We live our lives on borrowed time not knowing what the next second, minute
or hour will bring.
We foolishly think that tomorrow will come because we have been deceived by the enemy.
We fail to pray to him during our quiet time.
We say we have the faith of a mustard seed. How is that true when we have
removed ourselves from prayers?
Yet GOD watches with patience and in awe and in anticipation that we will change.
We take his precious love for granted by thinking he owes us more.
We in our selfishness do not stop to ask him "God" can I do anything for you.
Not a moment passes that he does not love us.
Did you know that every pain we feel he feels it also?
It is just something so tangible about his love. When I think of his goodness and all that he has done for me it makes me want to dance, shout and scream hallelujah.
The question is why can"t we do more for him?
He desires to see a world harmonized coming together in unity as one.
His love is about giving to the broken hearted and bringing us back to him.
What will it take to make this happen in a world and nation so cruel with no
regards to mankind?
We kill the innocent then try to justify it by saying that we are doing his will.
I think of the countless missionaries, the women and children in the third world countries
such as Sudan.
The ones who are raped and brutally beaten by the ones they should trust the family
members brothers and friends.
The world has no justifiable reason why it continues to turn. Wake up people can't you see the wars and rumors of wars. The destruction of earth quakes in places far and near. The way the seasons are changing and it is called global warming. Well from what I have read int the great
book it is called the last days.

What if God decided to close his eyes for a minute from all the sickness and shame?
It saddens the heart of God so that he weeps, watches and waits.
He is waiting for the ones that are willing to stand up and hold the blood stained banner.
To shout from the mountain tops that for God I'll live and for him I will die. To teach the
word in places that others are not willing to go.
He commands us to love one another and expects nothing less.
His love for us is unconditional that is why his eyes rest on this great nation.
What are you willing to do to bring joy and laughter into the eyes of God?

This is dedicated to the father of this Universe my true love above our Father that sits high
and looks down low.

Written By: Ms. A

I hope all of my Beautiful People like this great poem....

My Blogger Award Presentation....

Hello Beautiful People!
I received my first award and it is great.

I have 10 questions to answer before my award can be posted.
I want to thank you Melissa for the award, it means a great deal to me, I love it!

The questions of getting to know mamasgirlalexis a little more, hahahaha....

Melissa: What age was the very best for you so far?
Mamasgirlalexis: 1st answer of 2.
I would have to say from when I was born up until 18 years of age. The reason would be that more of my loved ones (family & friends) were around. Had no responsibilities, had fun being a tom boy! Well I am still a little tom boy at times.

My second answer: My age now, which is my 30's and best believe it is great. I can remember turning 30 and I was so depressed because I was no longer in my 20's and not where I wanted to be in life.
I will say that it is great getting to know me all over again, learning things (learning never stops) and I am finding me ( mamasgirlalexis). I am getting to the point of where I want to be in life, it takes time and patience and wanting the best for self.

Melissa: Did you have a "coming of age "summer?
Mamasgirlalexis: I would have to the age of 18, because I was in my first relationship and he was my first everything (If you know what I mean). This was a new level and a new stage of my life.

Melissa: How old were you when you got boobs (or hips) ?
Mamasgirlalexis: Wow, I really do not know. I guess when I was 13 or 14 yrs of age. I was so much into being a tom boy, I really didn't notice and many of my male friends didn't either. I would wear really large shirts and tees. They did not know that I had boobs, lol! I remember one of my male friends said the girls around here have large boobs and at least you N***a do not need to worry about that because you don't have any. LOL ! (Little did he know, what was under my shirt)

Melissa: Who was the worst teacher you ever had, and why?
Mamasgirlalexis: I guess I would say Ms. Schafer and the reason she stinks out in my mind is because she held me back in 1st grade for 1 point. Yep, one point and first grade beautiful people. She did it because I was her favorite pupil and she did not want me to leave her class. Dang, Melissa you have me being real personal, geezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!! : ( (Thinking to Self) Damn, first grade, I mean come on!!!!

Melissa: When you were in H.S, did you have a guy you thought was the one?
Mamasgirlalexis: Nope, not in H.S.

Melissa: How old were you the first time you had an alcoholic drink?
Mamasgirlalexis: I would have to say 16 yrs of age. I did like my wine coolers! I know it is kool aid, but so what. It had at least 1% of alcohol, so it counts! hahahahaha

Melissa: How old were you the first time you tried a drug?
Mamasgirlalexis: Wow, OK! There you go getting personal, lmao!
I was 24 yrs of age, and it was OK! I tried it one more time and that was it for me. I was still 24 yrs of age when I tried it the second time.

Melissa: When did you have your first kiss?
Mamasgirlalexis: I was 14 yrs of age, and it was my soul mate. I believe that he was and is to this day.
Where are you Michael Jacobs, from Mount Vernon?

Melissa: When did you wish that you knew then what you know now, when you were younger?
Mamasgirlalexis: I would say now, presently speaking. I would have saved more, invests, no credit cards or just had one credit card. And men, oh boy if I knew what I knew about them, I would have stayed a virgin! LOL! I am doing better about monies. It is a learning process, and I will and am getting better.

Melissa: Share a random confession about your youth?
Mamasgirlalexis: I would like to share that I was a singer and I my groups were Mary Jane Girls and a group called Mtume. And my brother and cousins were the back up singers (Brian, Timothy and Tyrone) . I would wear my weave of a skirt hair before weave was known, my cousins (girl cousin) heels and ankle socks with my comb mic. We were the bestess groups around! Our audience was the greatest and bestess ever known. My mommy, aunt and the rest of my cousins! Give them a round of applause....... Yhay!!

I hope you enjoyed the sneak peep of my inside life, before and now! hahahahaha

The Differences between being a Dad vs.Father

I was a newborn to an infant and then a toddler to pre-teens, teens and then to adulthood with a Father, an absent father that is. I know that I would have loved to have been raised by both parents. Only if my father was a dad and not just a father (Sperm Donor). I was raised by a Great, Intelligent, Strong and Loving Woman. She is my mommy, dad, supporter, best friend and my heart!

Don't get me wrong, I do love my father because he is my father and he had a hand in me being here on this earth. His faults and his reasons for not being a dad to me and my brother is unknown. I don't know if his dad was absent from his life (no excuse) and he did not know any better. Maybe it had something to do with the way he was raised (no excuse). Either way my father was not there for me or my brother.

We would see him every now and then and once in awhile we would speak with him on the phone. When we did see him we did not have much to say to one another because he did not know me or my brother and we did not know much about him. He wasn't a very big part of our lives.

We only knew some things about our father because my mommy, aunt, uncle and friends would speak of him. Even though my father was not there for us, my mommy did not talk bad about our father to us because she wanted me and my brother to have the opportunity of getting to know about our father and make our own decisions and choices about him. I know I really respect my mommy for that because I know my mommy had it hard with raising us on her own. My mommy is a single parent and she is the Best mommy, dad, supporter and best friend to have in our life. We are really blessed to have my mommy as our mommy and dad!

I know it would have been better for her and alot more easier to raise me and my brother if she had the support of the other parent, full support not half ass support. We (mommy,myself and brother) would have loved to have a dad and not just a father (sperm donor).

A father can be someone that isn't there for the child(ren) at all. Does not support the child(ren) in any kind of way. Has no emotional connection to the child(ren), no say in how or what the child(ren) does. He may not provide food, clothing, shelter, under garments, shoes, sneakers, a listening ear to your first crush, that first F or A on the report card, no bed time stories, etc.

Then you have the father that provides financial support only. But no emotional ties or connection with the child(ren). He will provide money, clothes, shoes, food and shelter but then again no emotional connection with the child(ren).

To me any man that is only a Father is just the sperm donor. He is half part of why I, you, him and her is on this earth.

A Dad to me is one that already knows that he wants to be a dad. A dad is a man that can admit that he is scared when a woman comes to him and says she is pregnant and he does not run. A dad is there at the appointments with the woman, he is there at the hospital when the child is born. A dad starts from the beginning of time.

A dad can also be that outside man that stepped up to the plate and took the role of being a dad. The outside man which is not biologically your dad but is your dad!

A dad is the whole package, a man that takes responsibility of his child(ren). A dad is there when you have your first knee scrape, your first crush, even your first fight in school. A dad is a supporter along with mommy, he is there to read bedtime stories, kiss the bruise on the forehead from falling off that bike. He will be the one that supports you in your decisions, choices and I think we can leave the womanly things to mommy to handle. A dad will bring that cookie to your room and say don't tell mommy because we will both be in trouble.

A dad is someone that is there for your first date, first kiss, and even to tell you about girls/boys and of course stay away from the boys, they are no good!
A dad spends time with you and get to know you all over again as you grow from that newborn, infant, toddler, pre -teen, teens and then to adulthood. A dad is someone that you can talk to, hang out with and even make fun of at times about those tight sweat pants. A dad is the one that would bathe you and tuck you in at night. Daddy is the protector , the one that is your prince. A dad is loving, caring, respectful, understanding many times, a sucker when it comes to his daddy's little girl or dad's little man(not much of a sucker with the boy though). Because the boy cannot be too soft.

This is my differences between being a dad vs. father.

A dad is a man and is well respected by me. A dad is many faces and grow along with the many paces of the child(ren). He goes through the growing pains and the phases as the child(ren) goes through theirs. He is dad and he will always be there for his child(ren) no matter the circumstance.

The Voice

The voice of a man that make you rethink Celibacy?

OK, I will tell you what I am talking about, you got it out of me!

I have a blind date soon, so you know that I have never seen him before.

He has seen a picture of me but he doesn't know that it is me. It can be a fake for all he knows.

He called me last night and as soon as I picked up the phone, he Voice sent chills and throbs in places

that I thought was not alive any more! LOL

I was into his voice for the rest of the night. We talked until 3 something am in the morning.

I am practicing celibacy right now and the Voice had me re-thinking Celibacy!!!!!

Yes, he has that type of deep, raspy, sexy, lovemaking, lay it down type of Voice........Whew!

He states that he is in the studio all of the time because he produces and I thought of having the Bestess Love Making on the studio equipment.. I mean that Hot, Passionate, Taking clothes off with the teeth type of Sex.............................................................

That is the way his Voice makes me feel is, he had me all to him self last night.

I don't know if I want to meet him in person, because he may not look like how his Voice sounds.

I may just use him for the Voice. He can be my Voice man only..................................

Whew, I cannot wait to hear that Voice tonight....

OMG is all I can say tonight. I will keep all of MY BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE in tuned!!

You will be known of our progress....

Tropical Smoothie Cafe Slogan: eat better & feel beeter

This slogan is the Best....

Different Now, Why?

We would text everyday, talk everyday or at least every other day.
We would go to the movies, car shows, plays and dinner because we are best of friends.
We would talk about mainly everything because we are comfortable with each other.
We knew of each others dislikes, likes and the horror stories of our individual dates.
We knew of each other's secrets and desires because we are very best of friends.
I just do not understand, well I do understand that it would change just a little when one of us do get involved (relationship).

Did not know that the friendship would not exist anymore......

I know that we may not talk, text or even hang out as much because of the new relationship.
Had no clue that you just did not want our friendship any longer. We both did not see our friendship as a season. We seen as a Reason for Lifetime....
I would like to continue on being friends and being in his life , I want to meet your new woman and that way she will get to know me. I was a part of your life for many years and how can a friendship be throw away that easily.

Now, the text, talk and hanging out has stopped completely.
If we was friends before the relationship, and when I was in a relationship I made time for my friend still.

I do understand that friendships will change a little because the time is made for the new partner and hopefully life partner.

I see relationships as being important because I do not allow just anyone into my life.
Relationships (Family ship, friendship,boyfriend and marriage) is very important and when someone finds a Great Friend, hold on to them because it is very hard to find a Great Friends!

It is a blessing .......
Continue to find time for your friend, just don't cut them loose because now your in a relationship

If that man/woman decides to not be the life partner for you, then guess who is there to help you through your heartbreak(Besides Family) your Bestess Friend......

I was asked some time ago to write about this topic.
I wanted to write from experience and I also asked the friend that did have help in my experience with this situation.

Alexis: Why is that when you was in a relationship, why did our friendship stop?
Him: I was so into her.
Alexis: I do understand that you would be giving her more time, but do not forget about your Great friends.. And I understand that we may not talk, text or even hang out much but just find the time. Great friends are hard to come by, accept and be grateful for the blessing of having a Great friend that would be there with you thick and thin and the same rules apply to you........
Him: I do apologize and I am very sorry for hurting you in that way
Alexis: I know you but if it was to happen again, I know where you live and I would put you in a choke hold.
Him: I will call the cops
Alexis: When I am released, I will come back to you and choke you out again....
Him: I will call the cops again and again
Alexis: I will come back again and again to choke you out
Him: You are crazy,LOL
Alexis: Yes, I am LOL
Alexis: Just want you to know that as a your friend I am here but not just here when you are not involved. If we are going to continue being friends then we deserve to be treated as a lifetime friendship. I wanted you to know that I was hurt by your actions.
Him: I understand and I am sorry......
Alexis: I am not playing with your butt anymore,LOL!

To "MY BEAUTIFUL PERSON/SUPPORTER/READER":
I do understand that you have been going through this situation and you two had a great relationship and now that he is involved with his partner, he has no use of the friendship that you two have had over the years.
I would suggest that you talk with him, and hopefully he would understand on how you feel.
He is currently all into her and now he has no idea on how to distinguish the two relationships.
I hope my experience and the answer from my friend has helped you.

I would love to hear from all My Beautiful People, your experience, advice and opinion on this situation......
