      Resurrection is really a sure hope promised in the Bible at Isaiah 26;19; John 5:28, 29; Acts 24:15; and the time when nobody will lose loved ones in death no more, check please Revelation 21:4, 5.

I'm not into games or flirting,life is short and we need to make the best out of it. I like to cuddle up and watch romantic movies,love kissing both in private places or public places.I also don't mind spoiling her with gifts for no reason and generally just spending quality time knowing our heart desires. I hope you are someone who respects and treats men right because i will respect and treat you right as well.I used to buy the idea of being single since my last and first true relationship parted away from me five years ago but believe me it can be tiring at times as at now I'm even tired of being single at the moment.lol.

    I fell asleep late last night
    And I dreamed the night and almost half the day away
    I just got up so that I could hear her say
    She's still in love and no one could take her love away
    … Ooh, love wakes me up everyday
    And I thought no one could ever make me feel this way
    It fills me up every time I hear her say
    She's still in love and no one could take her love away
    … I wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love, to love
    … When I mean all these words I've said
    You don't have to guess what's going on inside my head
    Just try to know all the things that our heart says
    Listen to love and always get love to lead the way
    … Whenever you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    … you know for love I'd go anywhere
    (For love) I would go there
    (For love, for love) for love to the end of nowhere
    It's for her love (and for her love)
    I would go, I would go, I would go
    And I would love (would love)
    … To just spend all my time
    With the girl who makes me feel her love is mine
    Someone you see, who would only dream of me
    She'd be in love, just 'cause she'd wanna be
    … She'd wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love (the one ah, ah)
    … There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of? (Ooh)
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love (the one)
    … There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far

The mom of the group I went with was a very petite lady. We were fourth row from the front. When Marvin sang Sexual Healing, this little lady walked up to the stage with her hand out for a hand shake. He shook her hand, and she was so excited, I think she jumped higher than the stage.

    This is the song that was sung when my daughter got married, I won’t ever forget the look on my son in law face when he saw Jessica marching in , he was so happy and excited to marry her it made me cry happy tears, I knew that my daughter was in good hands, Maliek and Jessica Wilson ♥️❤️

    Two greats, that came together for a brief time. To sing this awesome song, that is better today than when it was first recorded. This is what true talent looks like then and today. RIP to both

      Running Scared was on last week & I couldn't believe how long Gregory Hines had been gone. Then a few days later, I watched Luther in a 1994 concert on PBS. So sad that we lost two tremendously talented & kind people too soon

      In 1990 or '91, I was at the Newark airport with my sister. We were walking along and there was Gregory Hines walking toward us. He walked by, but gave us a huge beautiful smile. I've never forgotten it!!!!
