A Black Woman

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 puddle 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." I sat and thought about it. I said, "I don't know if it's possible but if I can...Lord, please let me come back a BLACK WOMAN. I want to come back with a mind so fierce and sharp, with a spiritual faith that never waivers or doubts, a smile that is warm, with 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', "lay-a-way", "overdue", or "post dated check" aren't in MY vocabulary.

I want to be a 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 a the same time.

I want to come back a BLACK WOMAN withself-esteem worthy of being treated like a Queen from my King. A woman with patience, love and wisdom for children.

A BLACK WOMAN with subscription to Essence, Jet, Ebony, Emerge, Black Enterprise, Heart and Soul 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 Rose Parks, the voice of Ella Fitzgerald, the political courage of Ida B. Wells, the determination of Harriet Tubman, the spiritual poise of Susan L. Taylor, the business savvy of Oprah Winfrey, the eloquence of Dr. Maya Angelou and best-seller books like Terri McMillian and Iyania Vanzant.

I want to come back as a BLACK WOMAN who can stay focused on the Lord regardless of the circumstances. I want to se SAFE fromt the penalty of sin. I want to never let what a person says or does change my demeanor; to be humble; love and be loved unconditionally.

I want skin that is flawless and soft, eyes of discernment, lips, which speak ONLY the truth, 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!! Thank God I'm Blessed as BLACK WOMAN!
