Everyone desires to beloved. The more I aged the greater that desire burned in me. I didn't want to end up an old maid. I met a gentleman I thought was God sent. He was much older, we started dating and he swept me off my feet. I knew this would last forever. Being with him I was fulfilled and happier than I have ever been. The sad thing was he had another side. Eventually it is revealed, but my dream colored reality. Then one night God manifested himself to me. He spoke, warning me not to proceed. I didn't want to believe what he was saying. With fear griping my heart I curled up in a fetal position. He told me, he is not your husband. He asked, do you want to be a nurse maid? He is to old for you. You will regret marrying him. That morning I grabbed my belongings and ran like a bat out of hell. Roberta Gibson is a wife, mother, and Nana.
