COMING BACK BLACK

COMING BACK BLACK

In a round table discussion about whether reincarnation was really
possible, a financially struggling single woman said,

"I want to come back as a rich white woman's poodle that's pampered
And rides around all day in her luxury car."

A tired waitress said, "I want to come back rich and make a lot of
Money and be a mega-super recording star".

The frustrated computer tech said, "If I can come back, I want to
be The President, so I can change a lot of things about this world near and
far."

Another woman thought about it and said, "I don't know if it's
possible, but if I can... God, please let me come back a
BLACK WOMAN.

I want to come back with a mind fierce and sharp,
with a spiritual faith that never waivers or doubts.
With a smile that is warm, and a body divine - with honey,
cinnamon
Or chocolate skin, draped in purple and gold. And, whether
young or old, always have enough money so the words broke, layaway,
overdue, or postdated check aren't in MY vocabulary.

I want to be a sister to my sister.
A woman wise when choosing my mate or a date.
I want to be able to cook greens, barbecue chicken, macaroni and cheese,
cornbread, a peach cobbler and a lemon pound cake all at the same time.

I want to come back a BLACK WOMAN with self-esteem, worthy of being
treated like a QUEEN by my King. A woman with patience, love, and wisdom
for children.
A BLACK WOMAN with subscriptions to Essence, Jet, Ebony, Black Enterprise,
and the Wall Street Journal.

I want to come back a BLACK WOMAN with at least one great
diamond from the Motherland on my finger.

I want to come back with the quiet courage of Rosa Parks, the voice of Ella
Fitzgerald, the political courage of Ida B. Wells, the determination of
Harriet Tubman, spiritual poise of Susan L.Taylor, the business savvy of
Oprah Winfrey,
the eloquence of Dr. Maya Angelou, and be the author of bestseller books
like Iyanla Vanzant.

I want to come back as a BLACK WOMAN, who can stay focused on GOD
regardless of the circumstances. I want to be SAVED from
the penalty of sin.

I want to never let what a person says or does change my demeanor.
I want to be humble, and to love and be loved unconditionally.
I want skin that is flawless and soft, eyes of discernment, and lips that
speak ONLY the truth.
I want hands of gentleness and feet of prosperity.
I want to be a lawyer to enforce the laws which man has broken.
If reincarnation is real, please let me come back as a BLACK WOMAN!!!"

I wanted to send this to all my sisters. We sometimes forget how
GREAT we really are.
Please pass this on to all the Sisters you know.
For the men that receive this, please pass it on to your wives, mothers,
grandmothers, sisters, aunts, significant others and any
other Black Sisters you know.
Believe me they'll appreciate receiving these words.
BLACK WOMEN ARE WONDERFUL !!!!
Thank you Renee
