Devil's Advocate



Have you ever heard the phrase, "God works in mysterious ways"?
Well even as common a phrase as this might be, many of us still seem astonished when he follows through!
By 'he' I mean God, of course.
That whole "he never closes one door, without opening another"...true story.
Our good savior knew my heart and he knew what I could handle, even when I had no idea.
This devil's advocate...bullied me into a corner.
I had to choose whether or not to tempt fate and pull my big guns out like a misbehaving child...or simply to wait it out and take the highroad.
When I saw her weave bouncing in the wind with her high heels on in a school where no one cares with that sassy look on her size 0 pants owning face..I almost lost it.
I ALMOST LOST IT.
But there ain't no rest for the wicked.
This sorry excuse for a human being spread countless rumors about me, much at my poor supervisor's dismay. When threatened with termination she pulled the race card. She snaked her way into the minds of my co-workers and started a one woman battle.
NO I DID NOT STEAL EGGS FROM THE KITCHEN.
In fact I have spent hundreds of dollars on the residents I care for at my job, everything from slippers to cholesterol lowering cheerios. I do not steal.
NO I AM NOT A LESBIAN.
Gay pride, yes. But no I am not a lesbian. I have been married to a handsome man for some time now. He has deep brown eyes and sweet summer freckles and the finest ass I have ever seen.
My first, my last, my always. I do believe in equal rights and love across the genders. Who cares? Pursue happiness! Live life! I am not ashamed to say that many of my family and closest friends are gay, bi-sexual, lesbian, or trans-gender.
Get over it!
NO I DO NOT STOOP!
I literally did not respond to a single one of the harassing text messages sent to my phone. Nor did I respond to the countless threats. And you know what happened?
I got an AMAZING job offer from an in-home care service. You lost your job and reputation.You are promiscuous. You are a liar. You are racist. You are close minded. You are anti-American.You have a restraining order keeping you from using your medical degree. You lose.

Thank God for giving me the strength not to knock your teeth into your stilettos Miss Kamara.
