Re: MIND BLOWIN! Pics of TDJAKES with Earrings!!!!
I love what he said about her choice in a mate - - very sweet and so true!
"I don’t like to share too many personal things, as privacy is only valuable to those who have forfeited it, but before I bore you totally, here is one morsel just to justify my own salty tears. As most of you know, I have two daughters, Sarah and Cora. I have for years complained about their choices in boyfriends. I guess many parents relate to that. In love one week, out of love the next, and on and on it went. I have ranted, raged, preached, taught, moaned, groaned, and prayed in hopes that they would find—and keep—the right one. Finally, I told them that I would mute my noise maker when I saw them with a guy who looked at them the same way that I do. I said when he sees in you what I see in you then I will shut my mouth and relax.
Well, when I walked her down the aisle and felt her trembling hand in mine, I looked up and there was her groom looking deeply into her eyes with tears unashamedly running down his cheeks and the same look of total enchantment that I have had since her mother birthed her! It was then that I almost lost it. I thought, “We do have something in common, we both love her and that is a good place to start!” So we were two wet-eyed dudes at the wedding, sniffing and snotty nosed. And it was a wonderful experience. It touched her mother and I in a profound way and hopefully they will weather well the vicissitudes of life!"
