Dear Jasmine &
Jabere:
I’m in desperate need of
advice. I’ve been dating this
guy for almost two years
now. We have a very crazy
relationship and I guess
that’s actually why I like
him. A- lot of the time we
argue but we always make
up and have a wonderful
time. We both have
problems that we’re trying to
overcome in order to make
this relationship work. I’ve
always planned to be with
him and perhaps get married
eventually. But then, out of
the blue, he asked me to me
to marry him. He was so
nervous I was scared to say
anything but yes. Now I’m
starting to get the jitters and
I’m wondering if I made the
right decision. What do I
tell him? I love him very
much,
Dear
Jasmir!^
& Jaber£
Crazy Relationship
Gets Complicated
but I think we may need
more time to prepare for such
a big move. I don’t want to
hurt him. What do I say?
Sincerely,
Nervous About Nuptials
Dear Nervous About
Nuptials:
Explain to your boyfriend
that you’re just not sure about
getting married and you need
more time to think about it. You
don’t need to be making a big
decision like that in a hurry.
Take your time and if after
you’ve thought about it you’re
still not sure, call it off until you
are sure. If your man loves you
as much as he says he does, he
should understand and be will
ing to wait.
Jasmine, this time you are way
off. Don’t you see that the
sister’s problem isjust pre-wed-
ding jitters. Nervous About
Nuptials, I think you should do
it. Don’t be turning down the
brother because you are having
pre-wedding jitters, that’s com
mon. You say no you will be
disrespecting your man. You
should be happy that you got
this brother to propose.

Just A Thought
By Robin A. Johnson
Contributing writer
One of my most valued moments was riding up the mountains of Windy Gap, North Carolina,
at 6:45 in the morning, to eat breakfast.
I remember that moment clearly. Some of the girls were scared while others, like myself, were
calm. I felt like the reigns of the horse were my life and I was finally in control. For the first time
in my life, I could actually feel a source of “inner peace”.
For as long as I can remember, I have wondered what it would be like to find my inner peace,
to finally be able to put up my mask and wear my own God-given smile.
For that one hour in the mountains, I had felt comfortable with myself and my own
surroundings. I had found comfort in nature. I could actually look at my reflection in the stream
and believe that I was special and it was all right to be me.
However, that moment didn’t last long. As I galloped down the mountains, back to reality, my
inner peace disappeared, my smile vanished, and so did my well-being.
Never in a million years would I have guessed that I would be in Atlanta, Georgia, studying
to be a journalist. Not because I didn’t have the money to attend this institution; but because,
emotionally, I didn’t think I was capable.
I never let anyone in on my true feelings. Before I graduated high school, everyone wanted to
know where I would be attending college. With a smile bright enough to light the world, I would
reply with precision, “Clark Atlanta University”. But once again I had worn the mask, not for a
moment believing that of myself.
The weeks before I came to Atlanta were hectic. I was almost ready to give up on everything
I had worked hard to achieve until someone very dear to my heart convinced me to give Atlanta
a try. And so I did.
Am I happy? I’m jubilant. Coming to Clark Atlanta University is the best decision I have ever
made. Though I haven’t made a lot of what I call “true friends”, I have found one that I can
definitely depend on - myself. The inner peace I have been searching for finally shines through.
