Don't settle for just anything

Someone sent me and a number of others around the city, these photos and the captions with an encouraging message to all women not to settle for just anything, but to know that God has the best for you if you will only be patient.






A man named David Upchurch is now telling media sources about his stint as First Lady Michelle Obama’s first boyfriend. The then 18-year-old Mrs. O was escorted by him to her Whitney Young High School prom in Chicago (above pic). They grew up together, were neighbors in the Chi, and David now lives in Colorado Springs , CO .





He says the reason they broke up is because he didn’t have his life together and he was “a screw up”. He says: “I always knew Michelle was special and would make a difference in the world.” I guess the First Lady wasn’t taking any ish even back then. Seven years later she met a law student named Barack Obama. And the rest is history. Love it.


I was very impressed with how things had gone so well for Michelle. She certainly made the right choices. I was however very amused by a comment from one of the people on the circulation list. I'm sure she won't mind me sharing it here.


"Kati ex ali mukusitula buveera."

What an under statement!
