There is this new Beyonce joint that is growing in popularity amongst some females that I know. In this song she is lamenting about how she can upgrade her man through the use of physical possessions. She refers to this as an upgrade. I do not make a habit of listening to or entertaining Beyonce and forgive my arrogance but, quite frankly her music is beneath my level of musical cognizance. However, this song aided in sparking a flame that is now burning within me.

I have decided to do an upgrade in my perspective on women. That is correct I am upgrading my standards concerning the feminine persuasion. I am not the most physically attractive guy in the world (wink) but, I have been fortunate enough to meet some attractive women. Some I have dated, some I kept things platonic and yes some I kept things physical (past that stage). However, these so called attractive women have been merely that. Attractive. Almost like a shell or an empty shoe box wrapped in beautiful wrapping paper. Once it is opened one realizes that there was never anything there.

On the counter side of this equation I have also made the acquiescence of several "average" (quotes used to denote term as being heavily subjective and opinionated) looking women. Typically I kept things at a strictly platonic level because of things like ego and socialized notions of what beauty in a woman is supposed to be. This is where the anticipated dilemma of this blog unmasks itself. Lean in closely because everyone does not need to know this. The "average" women have had spectacular personalities.

Okay I am sure that comes as no surprise. That is a stereotype that is replayed repeatedly in our society. However, for someone like me this notion was foreign until recently. I realized this secret that the world was hiding from me in the contents of empty boxes wrapped in beautiful paper was one that I should have excepted a long time ago. Damn maturity is something else.
So now I am making a choice. This choice is to upgrade. I am upgrading from the Shallow Hal.is.him I have fell victim to. From this point forward I am making an effort to fully appreciate women of all types. This includes women that would not have been on my radar in the past. I want a dime of the mind not just of the flesh.

Peace
