The Realness...

Something I absolutely love is the realness in people,
Folks with no affectations, who know exactly who they are and are not trying to be anything else...
They have been through all kinds of things,
And come out with their spirits and attitudes intact,
This weekend I was at my man's family reunion,
And on Saturday morning I sat across from a woman I have known all my life,
She is about fourteen years older than me,
And I can remember when she was probably in her twenties,
I always thought she looked fabulous,
And in her mid sixties, she still does,
Smooth skin, lovely hair, nice jewelry and best of all a beautiful, almost innocent smile,
Listening to her talk made me feel nice and comfortable,
There was an honesty and openness about her that was so damn...fresh!
Nothing jaded, nothing pretensious,
Just a beautiful woman who was lovely and happy with her husband, her life,
Who she was... Beautiful Betti...
There is also a young woman related to me by marriage,
I have not communicated with her much, lately,
But recently she found me on facebook,
And she has been sending me these very talky,
Wonderful messages, filled with her life and goings on,
And Love...
And she is as real as she can be,
Done been through some thangs,
Had some ups and some downs and still as happy as can be,
Lovely Edna...
I just absolutly love that,
Because life is so short,
There is so much going on,
And it is so nice to be around people who want to be around you,
Who that no matter what they have been through,
They have never allowed anything to steal their joy!

GOTTA LOVE IT...

BE BLESSED!
