Simply Beautiful

Ever have one of those days when you simply feel beautiful? Yeah, today is that day for me. I didn't do anything out of the ordinary. My hair is in the same ol' wash and go thrown in a puff with a headband. I have on a button up shirt and one of my same ol' skirts. My eyebrows aren't even done!! But I feel "simply beautiful." =) It's kinda like when you're chilling with your man and your hair is messy, you're in some old sweats and a t-shirt, and he looks at you and tells you how beautiful you are to him in that moment. =D That's how I feel right now. Perhaps it's God's love that I'm feeling. He's telling me that he thinks I'm simply beautiful.....

Someone who thought I was simply beautiful put me on to this song. I can't really listen to it because it makes my stomach turn. Not because he put me on to the song, but because of the way things turned out. I do that with friends too. Everyone has a song(s) that remind me of them. And if something goes wrong, it takes me a while to be able to listen to the song without going over the deep end in thought; wanting to pick up the phone and beg for rapprochement...

With that said, I give you "Simply Beautiful" by Mr. Al Green

He didn't make you a mixed tape did he? Best way to ruin a whole period's best songs is the mix tape froma bad breakup.

Great song, I first heard the song on a female blogger's blog. I had never heard it before then. Maxwell ripped it @ a recent awards performance.

Since he said that you were simply beautiful, I'd have to take his word for it. Those words are from one's heart.

Awww. Glad you are feeling beautiful. I have the Latifa version of this song. It is nice. Have a good one!
