Because I love it...

I hope everyone went out this opening weekend to see Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married". The movie was excellent. Mr. Perry has taken his movies to that next level where the story line and over all premise of the movie transcends it just being a black movie, although I love the fact that all the main characters are black! If you haven't seen it yet please enlighten your life a little and head to the theater. I promise you will laugh, cry, and learn something that could either help you as a married person or someone that you know who is married.

Now I have another movie that I think is going to be great to tell you about called "This Christmas". Here is the trailer for the movie: http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/thischristmas/

Make sure you check it out.

Why Did I Get Married?

That is the title of Tyler Perry's new movie and the topic on Oprah's show on Wedensday. Oprah has 4 couples on and pose tha question to them and it was quite a surprise listening to all the different answers. Like most open dialogue shows it brought me to thinking "why did I myself get married?" I think the answer to that question is different now to my answer for why am I still married? I got married because I was in love and couldn't picture myself with anyone else. I am still married because God has allowed me to see a man that I didn't see before and the fact that God has opened our relationship to a level that I didn't really think exsisted. My husband is my best friend and I know I can tell him anything and I do. Even the things that I know he may not want to hear or things that I may be nervous to tell him. He's better than a girlfriend because I know his feelings aren't hurt when I just say things that come into my mind without sensoring them. God brought me a friend that I truely cherish.

I think this new Tyler Perry film is going to be a host to open up dialogue for many couples, friends, and married people. Check out the trailer here:

And let's go out and support Tyler and his truthful portrayl of regualr black folks and not the fools that THEY would like us to be seen as. But that's another post for another day.
