That’s The Way I Feel About Cha

So I have been absent from the blog world for a while. A lot has been going on. Most of which I won’t disclose in this public forum. Right now, I am listening to Bobby Womack “That’s The Way I Feel About Cha”:

“Ha, you know life is funny when you look at it
Everyone wants love
But everyone is afraid of love.
You know I am a true believer that
If you get anything out of life,
You got to put up with the toils and strife

Now listen (Hoo)
You’re pushing my love a little bit too far
I don’t think you know (I don’t think you know) how blessed you are
And your friend Annie Mae tell you all she sees
Have you ever thought she was trying to get close to me?

Think it over
Think it over (girl)
Think it over

Look, that is the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha

Please, please
Please answer love
If ever comes knocking at your door
‘Cause what’s out there knocking baby
The world won’t get enough of
I know you’ve been hurt
And so has others too
But all you have to ask about the changes of life has put them through

(Lord have mercy)
(That is just the way it is)

Listen, don’t take my love
As a sign of weakness
Check into the situation girl
Get a little bit deeper

Cuz thats the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha
That’s the way I feel about cha”

The opening lines of the song are so true. A man loves a woman but she, for whatever reason, doesn’t receive his love. The man sings this ode to her to let her know that despite his relationship with her good friend, he wants to be with and still loves only her. He tells her to reflect over certain things about love and their relationship. He knows that she is affected by her last relationship, but warns her not to let that cause the end of something that could be wonderful.

With some minor adjustments, that song describes my life. Given my actions, he may not believe me, but that is how I feel about him. I want to be with him and only him. I have refocused my efforts to reflect that. I know I have done some things perhaps I shouldn’t have. To all parties, I would like to apologize wholeheartedly for what I have done that was wrong and hurtful. Let me reiterate the fact that despite my actions, my intentions have not changed. The future is uncertain, I just release the situation to God and let His will be done and I do not force my hand in anything. Everything will become clear in due time. In the interim, I must do what is required to be happy, healthy and sane.
