WE GOT OUR OWN THANG ..WE GOT IT..
Personally; am the beginning
of blackplanet..and i remember
there were people who made choices to become
more than a chatroom fling or
waiting for my prince charming to arrive
I was about the activities..the groups..
music..entering a field of corporate means
finding what was the concepts of
entering a world can bring ..
I met some..went out on dates..had a good time
even came across some with nothing
in common w/me ..but it was an Online
first..for so many Blacks...to this day
It's still got a lot 2 say..
some have left..some came back..
like myself..the only instant
gratification..is believing
all things do come in time..IF
U need to express LOVE & HAPPINESS
though..it's not promised..
a bouguet of roses..it'a all up to the individual
and how...BLACK..looks back at
the solutions
GODBLESS U..THANKS
