Love only hurt a person when they are[b] truly [/b] in love.  if u were not in love and your man left you  , u'll say something like this "to hell wid him"

t00 cUTE:
Mary slessor said: love until it hurts, that;s to say if you are in love and it does not hurt then you are not.
I want to ask two questions here
1. why does love hurt?
2. if you are in love, must it hurt?

since love has the most beautiful feln, how come it hurts.

The Blessing of Unanswered Prayers

I asked for strength that I might achieve;
I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for health that I might do greater things;
I was given infirmity that I might do better things.
I asked for riches that I might be happy;
I was given poverty that I might be wise.
I asked for power that I might have the praise of men;
I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life;
I was given life that I might enjoy all things.
I got nothing that I had asked for,
but eveything that I had hoped for.
Almost despite myself my unspoken prayers were answered;
I am, among all men, most richly blessed.

I have to call for a "life line", hard 4 me to guess

one of my favorite jokes, Oldie, but still bring tears to my eyes

gabrywyl:
Why females should avoid a girl night out after they are married.
If this does not make you laugh out loud,you have lost your sense
of humour.
The other night I was invited out for a night with the girls.
I told my husband that I would be home by midnight.I promise
well the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easily.
Around 3am a bit loaded I headed for home.
Just as I got in the door the cuckoo clock in the hall way started up
and cuckooed 3 times. Quickly realizing my husband would probably wake
up.I cuckooed another 9 times.
I was really proud of myself for comeing up with such a quick-witted solution in order
to escape a possible conflict with him.
(Ecen when totally smashed 3 cuckoo plus 9 cuckoo totals =12 cuckoos Midnight)
The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in.
I told him "Midnight" he didn't seem pissed off in the least.
Whew I got away with that one! Then he said "we need a new cuckoo clock
When I asked him why he said well last night out clock cuckooed 3 times then said
Oh shit "Cuckoo 4 more times, cleared its throat cuckooed another 3 times
giggled cuckooed twice more and then tripped over the coffee table and farted.

NEFERTARI

QUEEN OF KEMET (the land of the blacks) (1292-1225 B.C)
Her marriage to the great Rameses II of lower Ancient Egypt is known as one of the greatest royal love affair ever. This marriage also brought an end to the hundred year war between upper and lower ancient Kemet (Egypt), which in essence unified both sections into one great Kemet which was the world leading country. Monuments of this love affair still remains today in the temples that Rameses built for his wife at Abu Simbel.
The immense structures known as the two temples of Abu Simbel are among the most magnificent monuments in the world. Built during the New Kingdom nearly 3,000 years ago, it was hewn from the mountain which contains it as an everlasting dedication to King Ramses and his wife Nefertari. Superb reliefs on the temple detail the Battle of Kadesh, and Ramses and Nefertari consorting with the deities and performing religous rituals. The rays of the sun still penetrate to the Holy of Holies in the rock of the main temple on the same two days of the year: the 20th of October and the 20th of Febuary. This timing is probably connected to the symbolic unification, via the rays of the sun, of the statue of Ra-Herakhty and the statue of Ramses II. Up to today these structures remains as the largest, most majestic structures ever built to honor a wife.

Would you do me the honors, please

AMINA[i][/i]

QUEEN Of ZARIA (1588-1589)
This queen of Zazzua, a province of Nigeria now known as Zaria, was born around 1533 during the reign of Sarkin (king) Zazzau Nohir. She was probably his granddaughter. Zazzua was one of a number of Hausa city-states which dominated the trans-Saharan trade after the collapse of the Songhai empire to the west. Its wealth was due to trade of mainly leather goods, cloth, kola, salt, horses and imported metals. At the age of sixteen, Amina became the heir apparent (Magajiya) to her mother, Bakwa of Turunku, the ruling queen of Zazzua. With the title came the responsibility for a ward in the city and daily councils with other officials. Although her mother's reign was known for peace and prosperity, Amina also chose to learn military skills from the warriors. Queen Bakwa died around 1566 and the reign of Zazzua passed to her younger brother Karama. At this time Amina emerged as the leading warrior of Zazzua cavalry. Her military achievements brought her great wealth and power. When Karama died after a ten-year rule, Amina became queen of Zazzua. She set off on her first military expedition three months after coming to power and continued fighting until her death. In her thirty-four year reign, she expanded the domain of Zazzua to its largest size ever. Her main focus, however, was not on annexation of neighboring lands, but on forcing local rulers to accept vassal status and permit Hausa traders safe passage. She is credited with popularizing the earthen city wall fortifications, which became characteristic of Hausa city-states since then. She ordered building of a defensive wall around each military camp that she established. Later, towns grew within these protective walls, many of which are still in existence. They're known as "ganuwar Amina", or Amina's walls. She is mostly remembered as "Amina, Yar Bakwa ta san rana," meaning "Amina, daughter of Nikatau, a woman as capable as a man.

A girl asks her boyfriend to come over Friday night

And have dinner with her parents. Since this is such a
Big event, the girl announces to her boyfriend that
After dinner, she would like to go out and make love
For the first time.

Well, the boy is ecstatic, but he has never had sex
Before, so he takes a trip to the pharmacist to get
Some condoms. 

He tells the pharmacist it's his first time and The pharmacist helps the boy for about an hour.
He tells the boy everything there is to know about condoms and Sex.

At the register, the pharmacist asks the boy how many
Condoms he'd like to buy, a 3-pack, 10-pack, or family
Pack. The boy insists on the family pack because he
Thinks he will be rather busy, it being his first time and all.

That night, the boy shows up at the girl's parents
House and meets his girlfriend at the door. "Oh, I'm
So excited for you to meet my parents, come on in!"

The boy goes inside and is taken to the dinner table
Where the girl's parents are seated. The boy quickly
Offers to say grace and bows his head.

A minute passes, and the boy is still deep in prayer,
With his head down.

10 minutes pass, and still no movement from the boy.
Finally, after 20 minutes with his head down, the
Girlfriend leans over and whispers to the
Boyfriend, "I had no idea you were this religious."

The boy turns, and whispers back, "I had no idea your
Father was a pharmacist."

The Special Forces Prayer

Almighty God Who art the Author of Liberty
and the Champion of the oppressed
hear our prayer.
We the men of Special Forces,
acknowledge our dependence upon Thee
in the preservation of human freedom.
Go with us as we seek to defend the defenseless
and to free the enslaved.
May we ever remember that our nation,
whose motto is "In God We Trust,"
expects that we shall acquit ourselves with honor,
that we may never bring shame upon our faith,
our families, or our fellow men.
Grant us wisdom from Thy mind,
courage from Thine heart,
strength from Thine arm,
and protection by Thine hand.
It is for Thee that we do battle,
and to Thee belongs the victor's crown.
For Thine is the kingdom,
and the power and glory forever,
Amen!

- Chaplain John Stevey

awesome, good one

Over the hill, few more wrinkles, perhaps newer wisdom.  Yet I am thankful to God on my 41st b/day.  This is what my daughter wrote in my bithday card

[i]Dear mommy:

Words or action can't express what you mean to me. You are a wonderful mother, best friend, father and provider. you have done many good things for me, I hope you enjoy your 41st birthday because it only comes once.

$10.00, it's not much but enjoy yourself @ the movies. Love you "[/i]

Living to see her grow into a fine young lady, makes me appreciate life.

Gratitude

express your gratitude to people.
Make a habit of expressing it to others.
Give opportunities in your family

Grateful, generous, gracious, growthful. Live out of your positive spiritual energy and let it multiply. Invest yourself in others, in ways that others can grow. Bless others.

Are you black (real dark skin)? If yes, go Puerto Rico for your next vacation and tell us of your experience. As a black person you can't even go into an all Puerto Ricans (light skin) neighborhood. You may take a chance in the day but you don't take a chance in the night. They behave as if they are white in PR.

Only when they come to America, they "kinda" mingle with us because they realized that Ytee treat them the same way as blacks.

Even in the USA, the PRs are rallying around Hillary Clinton that's why I said earlier "i am anxious to see the result coming out of PR.

SeanT21:
its the oppisite, most puerto ricans think they are BLACK. Especially the ones on the east coast.

Read Colossians 2:14-16 and let me know your thoughts

Obama is in Puerto Rico. most Puerto Ricans think they are white, so I am anxious to see the result coming out to PR.
