Dying to Oneself (182 hits)

What's up Fam,

Have you ever given up something that has become so normal to your everyday life? Some people give up food, watching TV , or talking on the phone. Some people may give up going to the club or s*x......... Interestingly enough, I have done two of these things before and have embarked on one of those things again. For about eight months, I have not had s*x. One reason has been because I have not had a relationship since then, but the other reason is I believe that the majority of my relationships have not worked out because of s*x. Now I am not downing those who are having s*x, it is just that for me personally...it seems that after s*x is involved in any of my relationships....things seem to go down hill. The other thing that may be a major problem is that I was just having s*x........the next time that I embark upon this adventure....I want it to be with someone that I love and that I am in love with. Not only is that a requirement, but I require that my mate.....whoever he will be, will be in love with me and I mean truly in love(probably husband, whenever God sends him my way).

Now...many of you may be reading right now and are probably thinking that I have lost my mind. You are probably thinking that it is impossible to find someone who would meet this qualification.....but I don't as a matter of fact, I am not even looking. Now you are probably saying.....Hold Up, Wait A Minute.......Yes I said it, I am not looking. No more going out to the club to scope out fellas, no more going to church to see if the preacher's son is fine(I never really did this, but I am making a point here) and no more...dressing up just to go to the mall so a cute guy will notice.....NO MORE!!!

I have decided that I am going to be patient and focus on other things, such as my son, my music and my family. I have already met someone very nice by just simply being patient. Ladies, sometimes we are so wrapped up in finding a man...that we tend to lose ourselves. And astonshingly, there are so many women out there who will sleep with a brother on the first night and then wonder why he won't call you. The challenge is gone....the chase is over. With the way disease is flowing out there(I don't care if you wear a c*ndom) I am afraid to even touch anyone the very first time I meet them(just kidding). Honestly, there is too much at stake to sacrafice your body in that way. And this is not just about s*x.

Many of us face different types of temptations.....food, alcohol, drugs, etc. Now the later two may be hard to give up but if you truly are serious about receiving your blessings consider dying to yourself.

Stay Bleassed

One Love

I gotta agree with you on this one. s*x is definately a distraction. Since I am in the middle of nowhere, it's not necessarily that I have a choice, it is kinda made for me day by day, but as for you purposing not to, I think that is very commendable. We do lose ourselves. Although I tease with my girlfriends that I would love to be a little lost right now, I appreciate the encouragement not to be.
