I am a woman of God, too. I have worth and value. I am more than my black skin. I am more than just a laugh. I’m not here to be an entertainer. I want to be a wife. I want to be a mother. I want to help. I want to be a friend. I try hard, too. I sacrifice. I love my family. I read the Word. I do my best. I want to be who you imagine when you lift up that veil. I suppose I haven’t been painted into those perfect pictures. I haven’t been the model of beauty. Why must I be written off? Why am I always the last one picked before the start of the game? I feel like Charlie Brown.
