(ThyBlackMan.com) Often times as women, we allow the primary focus of our lives to be caring for our children, lovers, family and friends. Oh, did I forget work? The struggle to be “successful” in the workforce is our life purpose, right? So many of us are driving recklessly towards achieving success and ensuring our family needs are met that we forget the importance of balance and inner peace. We overlook our natural desire be spiritually connected not only to Source/God/Creator/Universe, but also to self.
We forget that without being fully aware of self we open ourselves up to a host of dis-eases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer as well as depression. In order for us to be these super women, these powerhouses we crave to show society we are, we must first be at peace within ourselves. We must first return to our center, our whole selves: our spiritual selves.

As I stroll through blogs, articles as well as posts on social media I often find the threading trend to be ‘love’ centered. Everyone is talking about how to find love or how to keep it. Interestingly most information takes
the route of telling women how to make a man happy, what a man desires in women or how to attract the perfect guy. Have you ever wondered the motive behind all this insight geared towards making you change in order to get a man?
Why are we, as women still seeking out information on how to get a man in 2014? More importantly, why are so many women changing their lifestyle, personality, appearance and goals to secure a relationship? I’m amazed at how far we women are willing to go in order to get a man while lacking consistency and dedication when it comes to making changes within for our personal growth.

No you are not hearing the famous line that’s familiar to fans of the Maury Povic Show. This is regarding something that’s heard time and time again, especially within the black community. “I’m the mama and the daddy.”
Now what I’m about to say may upset some women out there once I’m done. But it won’t be the first time. First of all you are not your child’s father if you gave birth to him. You are his mother.
I won’t throw out the disheartening statistics that constantly bombard us and the many reasons as to why black fathers are absent. I’m sure that you’ve heard them all. I will only give my case of why fathers are desperately needed in their children’s lives.
