THE BIZNESS
Bizness woke up to the smell of Fall in the distance,which mad her heart dance because it was her favorite time of the year; ever since she could remember. She blamed her liking on being a Fall baby when anyone would ask why she seemed so different whenever Fall arrived.
She got up and peeped through the blinds as tears began to fall like rain. The weight of the world seemed to be crushing her soul. Why did he have to leave so soon and why hadn't God blessed her with a replacement? Was she destined to be alone for the rest of her life? She inhaled the sweet aroma, wiped the tears away then she exhaled.
"I know what I'll do," she thought as she reached for her laptop.
She was anti-internet dating but her children were grown living their own lives and she was still lonely, searching for love, weak and felt somewhat powerless. Having her own business was stressful. She didn't know how much longer that would last unless she turned into a monster. Her friends and extended family could be heartless and difficult to deal with at times. Checking out seemed like the only way out but who would ever imagine her to bail when she held it together for so many years?
"What can it hurt? They have religious dating sites too? Then again, there are so many different beliefs now, I don't even care as long as he loves God."
Her list of qualities in a man was long and ridiculous, too many expectations. There was no way she could find a man with these limitations. She threw her laptop down and watched as the screen shattered.
"Now what? I'm so crazy. I really need help."
She stared at the wall as the sky darkened. She hadn't eaten nor would she answer any calls.
"I'ma fake my death and see who really cares about me," she snickered....END OF PREVIEW....TO BE CONTINUED!

Story of my life. Lonely as hell. But hang in there. I understand. I believe God is keeping us in a state of aloneness for a grander purpose that we are unaware at this point. The illusion of the world looks very tempting and appealing at times but remember that that's all it is "A BIG DAMN ILLUSION" that many are so attached to and caught up in. I know ... the A's & B's of the world need "love" too, but let not your heart be troubled. You and I both know that that emptiness can only be fulfilled by "HIM" not "him". I know your pain ... as I am your pain. I'll pray and try to feel better for both of us. This too shall pass.
