SEXYBLACK SHORT: Amazing Animated Short "Requiem for Romance" by Jonathan Ng

Loved this.

One of my favorite Brian McKnight songs of all time...

When the eagles forget how to fly,

And it's 20 below in July,

And when violets turn red,

And roses turn blue,

I'll be still

In

Love

With You...

THROWBACK PERFORMANCE OF THE MONTH (with meaning): Boyz II Men -- Please Don't Go

Sometimes when it gets to much, you just have to go back to the beginning, and ask yourself "When it gets close to the end, who's hand do I want to be holding?"

Boyz II Men - Please don't go

"The Beatles got it right..., love's not that complicated, sometimes it's just about... 'I wanna hold your hand.'"

What I'm trying to say, is that sometimes, it gets hard, it gets crazy, it gets complicated... but if we clear all that away, we can choose to press the RESET button and choose to take that same leap of faith that got us as far as we got in the first place (when we knew nothing or very little about each other and nothing was guaranteed -- we just didn't want to be apart from that special person).  Forgiveness is a miracle we can all perform, a gift we can all give.  Because when it's all said and done, we're better together, aren't we?... Aren't we?
