I'm worth a lot

"In a brief conversation, a man asked a woman he was pursuing the question...... "What kind of man are you looking for?"

She sat quietly for a moment before looking him in the eye and asking. "Do you really want to know?"

Reluctantly, he said, "Yes."

She began to expound... “As a woman in this day and age, I am in a position to ask a man what he can do for me that I can't do for myself. I pay my own bills. I take care of my household without the help of any man. I am in the position to ask, "What can you bring to the table?"”

The man looked at her. Clearly he thought that she was referring to money.

She quickly corrected his thought and stated, "I am not referring to money. I need something more." I need a man who is striving for perfection in every aspect of life."

He sat back in his chair, folded his arms, and asked her to explain.

She said, "I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection mentally because I need conversation and mental stimulation. I don't need a simple-minded man.
I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection spiritually because I don't need to be unequally yoked... believers mixed with unbelievers is a recipe for disaster.
I need a man who is striving for perfection financially because I don't need a financial burden.
I am looking for someone who is sensitive enough to understand what I go through as a woman, but strong enough to keep me grounded.
I am looking for someone who I can respect. In order to be submissive, I must respect him. I cannot be submissive to a man who isn't taking care of his business. I have no problem being submissive...he just has to be worthy. God made woman to be a helpmate for man. I can't help a man if he can't help himself.”

When she finished her spill, she looked at him.

He sat there with a puzzled look on his face.

He said, "You're asking a lot."

She replied, "I'm worth a lot.""

Jupiter, moon, Venus

So last night I get a text from my brother to go outside, look at the moon and take pictures. I do it and voila! I see two bright stars flanking the moon and the two make a straight line-star moon, star. I just loved the sight. To me it was just beautiful seeing the moon crest and the two stars on the side in perfect alignment. I took what I hope will come out ok using my phone. Before doing that I passed on the message to a few friends I felt are on the same side of crazy as me. One called and we went on and on about it. It was just one of those things that sometimes get me sort of crazy when I marvel at the wonders of nature. So today someone I’d txd calls me to show me photos from the net of what we were looking at and whaddaya know! Those weren’t just stars, it was Jupiter to the left and Venus to the right. Depending on where u saw these three from yesterday night, it could be the line, triangle or would you believe it- a smiling face (sorry for those with a sad face.). Still on the same issue it’s amazing how we see things. For some it was just a good night out to be looking in the sky and some the smiling face said a lot. Actually the smiling face found a way of giving back hope to people after the Mumbai attacks. So depending on where u look at something from and what’s happening in your life – it’s a smile or just the moon and stars. I haven’t got round to downloading my photos so for now I’ll share these photos I took the other time my brother told me to look up. This was during the day. God at work.
