*In front of them sat a beautifully adorned woman. Not much makeup, not to flashy, but this girl was sharp. Almost on instinct they caught each others eye. She smiled at him sheepishly, looking like an Egyptian goddess. She was his first lady. He smiled back with a little nod and a quick wink. That sent her ablaze. Her kisses and embraces from earlier shot through his mind, heart and soul. If he could, he’d rush out to her and grab her. Then he’d sweep her off of her feet and off they’d go.
*Cook and his wife, Sister Cook had built a successful chain of catering businesses. She was the brains behind it all. She was always trying to create something new. Before she began her own business, she worked on the creative meal team for a major food chain. She was making very good money for something she loved to do. And then one day some coworkers and her boss, who she thought were her friends turned on her. They attempted to sabotage whatever she worked on with them. After a while, she got fed up with them and left. When people found out that she had quit her high paying job, they thought that she was nuts. What the naysayers and busybodies didn’t know was, that she had been working on her own business for years. She had gone through the ups and downs as well as the failures, but she refused to let anything or anyone defeat her. The only other person she could confide in was her man.
*Once, he was a speaker at a men retreat and was asked a similar question and he answered, “I put her first in everything that I do, on this side of heaven. Period. The only thing that goes before her is God. I’ll describe my wife in a few words. She’s accommodating to my needs. She’s easy going, punctual, outspoken and very organized. Oh yeah, and she is very easy on the eyes.” He made it a point to stress just how important it was for them to treat and respect each other. They went together like a hand in a glove.
*As she was walking towards the door, she heard a loud commotion. When she entered the house, she entered just in time. Her two men were going at it pretty bad. They had gotten within arms length of the other. How had this transpired into such a bloodbath of words and anger? She stepped in between the combatants fearing the worse. Their son had put them in compromising positions before, but this was the straw that finally broke the camel’s back!
