I’m solid and I love that about me. It’s rare that you find someone on the same wavelength. One person that is the epitome of that is my father. I’m pretty sure that’s where I get it from. He’s a man of his word. So much that, he’s taught me that all you have is your word. Some years ago, he told me... “One day you’re gonna want a man like me. “When he said it, I was like “ewwww, what?!?! I don’t wanna man like YOU.”
And lemme tell you... I couldn’t of been more wrong. I want someone exactly like him. My dad is old school and ALWAYS keeps it 💯. He’s never lied to me. He’s ALWAYS come through when I need him x 10. He’s SOLID. That’s what I’ve wanted for a very long time. Now I have it... and I’m just in awe. He reminds me so much of my father that it’s scary. It doesn’t take a lot to appease me. But, I appreciate him so much. He’s hardworking, giving, funny, loveable, honest (sometimes too honest) and most importantly SOLID.
SOLID isn’t a word that is used to often these days, but, I wanna bring it back. For so long I used to think something was/is wrong with me because I’m too hard on the outside. I’m too mean or I’m not dysfunctional enough. I’ve always been in my own lane, which is weird for most men. Because they like women that have nothing to offer, hella drama, or are thot pockets; that’s the reality of it.
So in this present time... I’m grateful and always appreciative for the gift of being solid AND it being reciprocated by someone I care about. It’s an amazing feeling and I definitely don’t take it for granted. I wish we had more men in the world like this, specifically black men. However, I’ll admire my significant other, my father and the other great men in my life that exhibit the same qualities. You all are appreciated... in more ways than one.
love. all ways. always.
