Hi, Y'all!

Your girl, Fedora C., here—throwin’ down my views and advice on mid-life singleness for us divorcees. (Or, as I like to call it, the gospel according to Fedora C.) Now, let’s get one thing straight from the get go. Your girl is not a shrink, nor am I trying to be one. If you need that kind of advice, skip my blog and check out Dr. P. If you’re not into Doc, there are hundreds of others like him to choose from, but I’m not one of them. I’m just on the single scene having fun and making a few “observations”. Aren’t you glad I cleared that up?

The other thing I’d like to clarify is what I mean when I say “single”. Small screen reality girls tend to use “single” synonymously with “no boyfriend”. For all intents and purposes, when I say “single”, I mean “without a husband” or not married. There’s a difference, my friends. Marriage is a serious level of commitment. Take a look at the marriage vows. All that talk about staying with the man in sickness and health . . . for better or worse . . . as long as you both shall live. Honey, please—you’d better pay attention to the words the preacher’s saying instead of wondering if you look cute in your wedding dress. It ain’t for play-play, it’s for real. When you go there in committing to your man, you have taken your relationship to a God level. And, it takes a sho nuff Godly commitment to promise to wash a person’s dirty drawers for the rest of your life.

Sorry, I stumbled a little off topic. Hm-m-m . . . where was I? Oh yeah--Now, hear this: Your girl has an opinion about everything . . . it is what it is—MY opinion. Good thing we live in the good ol’ U.S. of A, where it’s okay to have our own voice, right? When I speak my opinion, I’m not tryin’ to be politically correct, negate, or challenge how you choose to define anything or how you want to live your life. That’s you. This blog is about me and the other Fedora C.s of the world. Hope that point is clear . . . real clear.

Look how much we’ve accomplished in our first meeting—impressive, huh? It just gets better from here. In the next blog, find out more about Fedora C.. Until then, be blessed!
