Mackgurl's Musings

Slow, warm, wet...what are your favorite kind of kisses? I mean do you have more than one fave? Like are you the passionate, OH LORD I THINK HE STOLE MY SOUL, fan? I have to admit that is DEFINITELY a good one. Or maybe you're the more quick brush of the lips type Hmmm, those are good too. What about the ones that seem to last for years? OH YEAH those are spectacular, too. But then there's the one kiss that seems to just stay with you.  THE FOREHEAD KISS. Sometime and in some cases, a forehead kiss can be a hundred times better than one of those everlasting SOUL STEALERS. Wait wait wait - hear me out Think of the last time when you were little and your mom or grandma gave you a hug and before you left her arms she planted a kiss right in the middle of your forehead. You remember how that felt? How did you feel? Warm?  In that moment you knew you were in their heart.  Now, think of the last time you got one of those kisses from the man/woman in your life? Seemed innocent a...

Out of the blue, you appeared in my life... Like the sun, peeking from the clouds after a storm So bright, you seemed to glow and radiate such  warmth. In your presence, well... I feel your care, your VOICE , your SMILE ... How can I possibly feel your VOICE ?! How can I feel your SMILE? ! Am I crazy? When I'm with you, well... I hear your heart, I hear your EYES ... I hear your EYES !  Am I crazy?! I thought that if I admitted... At least to myself, t hat I liked you - a little, it  would help. But, no, I still feel your SMILE caressing my lips - when I'm alone. Maybe I am crazy? I figured if I admitted... At least to myself, that I liked you more than a little, that would be enough. But no, I can still feel your VOICE surrounding me - when I'm alone. OH GOD, I must be crazy?!! I hoped that if I admitted... At least to myself, that I love you - a little, it would stop these crazies! But no, I can still hear your EYES talking to me - when I'm alone. So today, I stan...

Hi Baby...Hi Love...Hey Hun...Babe? Those words are bandied about a lot . To some, those words may seem casual but to me they mean much much more. They are words that  show how deeply you've ingrained yourself in my heart.  My constant source of smiles... You are a fountain overflowing with hugs, laughter, security and most of all love. I wish so much that you were here... Here with me... My hand in yours, your lips on mine.  It would be pure bliss... But you're not here...Not where I can hold you, cuddle with you... But you're not here...Not where you can hold me, snuggle with me... No... you're not here...you're there... Hmmm, I wonder...no I'm actually fairly certain... THERE...Wherever you are right now...In that place, in that moment of time... I know that THERE has no idea how lucky it is to have you.

A house built with straw A house built with sticks We know how the story goes Quickly thrown together A few flowers, a few kisses, a few sweet words And then the wolf takes a deep breath A house built with straw A house built with sticks We know how the story goes The wolf begins to blow Exhaling puffs of anger, huffs of misunderstandings Stirring your hurt feelings and making you run A house built with straw A house built with sticks Is no match for a house built with bricks It's foundation is strong Built on friendship, laughter Spending time together, learning one another It can withstand a hurricane of tears It can withstand the tides of raised voices A shelter from the huffs of disappointments But it takes more time to build It takes more care, more effort Ensuring that the foundation is set A house built with straw A house built with sticks A house built with bricks We know how the story goes Now, which house do you prefer? And which house will you choose to build?

Your hands… exploring… your fingers… searching and finding… t he gravity at the center of me that holds me down… one touch launches me… the second touch s ets me free… i nto the heavens… seeing stars and feeling moon dust.

Hey Hey Hey!!! Let's Play Play Play! Last week, I told you about a game I saw on social media -  WHAT'S YOUR CATCHPHRASE?  If you missed it, basically an artist is selected along with the titles of some of their songs. The object of the game is to use the titles to come up with your best catchphrase or something that you would use with your future boo (or current boo, if you're so fortunate). So let's play:  *I don't own the copyrights to any of the music or images posted* Today's artist is the fabulous Mary J. Blige 1. Be Without You 2. Not Gon' Cry 3. Just Fine 4. Family Affair 5. You Remind Me 6. Real Love 7. I'm Going Down 8. Love No Limit 9. No More Drama 10. All That I Can Say 11. Sweet Thing 13. 911 12. I Can Love You Alright, I will go first: Everyday, I love you more and more. It's the love no limit kinda love. It's a sweet thing to have a love that's just between you and me...not a secret, but it's private. It's not a frien...

Chivalry. ..what does that look like to you? Are you a fan of this mindset? Hey guys - do you still perform chivalrous acts or...? Huh? You're not sure what chivalry is??!! Alright, no worries. Without getting to webster-pedia-ish, chivalry is basically the acts, traits, characteristics that make a man a gentleman. Sure there's more to it historically (think knights, damsels, laying coats over puddles so ladies don't mess up their shoes...I'm not kidding. Men used to do that). But in a nutshell, it's the whole idea of what makes a man a gentleman. No not your shoes or your clothes, but how you act around a lady...how you treat a lady. Hmm, you're still not sure what I mean?   Ok, fellas, well when you go out on a date, do you open doors for her (car doors, restaurant doors)? When you go to dinner, do you pull out her chair and seat her first before taking your seat? Being chivalrous also entails performing acts of courage (getting between her and a speeding c...

I think at some point in our lives we have all experienced what it feels like to be in LOVE . Okay, maybe not EVERYONE but most of us have. Just one thought of that person and you are beaming the most beatific smile...you don't even have to be in their presence just the mere thought of them. You just thought of someone, didn't you? LOL I know you did. Any who, that person you thought of (stop lying you know you thought of them) how did you meet them? Through friends, work at a coffee shop (always thought that was so romantic when it happened...in the movies of course). And how did you know they were the one? That you were IN LOVE with this person? How long did it take before you realized it?  "Sheesh, why so nosy, Mackgurl?" I'm being nosy, I mean I'm asking because what I really want to know is this - Do you believe in love at first sight? You know, that feeling of being thunderstruck as soon as you lay eyes on them...a person you've never seen befor...
