My Girl

"My Girl" By the Temptations

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).


I don't need no money, fortune, or fame.
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
with my girl.
I've even got the month of May
with my girl

I've got my girl - do you?  These words are exactly how I feel yesterday, today and tomorrow about my wife.  Having someone in your life that makes you feel this way is a big plus toward your happiness.  It takes effort, compromise, positive attitude and willingness to remove your barriers to let that special one into your life.


The effort is in finding the right person.  Effort means you are willing to be the one who starts the conversation.  Effort means you don't let physical attributes of this special someone stop you from listening to what they have to say.  However, Don't settle for anything else than someone who makes you feel:

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May.

Don't settle for anything else than someone who makes you feel:

I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.

Don't settle for anything else than someone who makes you feel:

I don't need no money, fortune, or fame.
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim.

It takes compromise to stay with someone who will make you feel this way.  Nobody is perfect - especially you. It's easy to compromise with someone when the good they bring to you far out ways the not so good.  It's easy to compromise with someone when they love you just the way you are (the good and the bad).  It's easy to compromise with someone when:

It's required to have a positive attitude to find someone who will make you feel this way.  You should always believe this person is just one introduction away from becoming "my girl" (you do know it could also be "my boy"). You should always believe this person is just one bar stool, church seat, event seat, etc. away from being "my girl."  You should always believe this person is just one birthday, Halloween, Superbowl party away from you feeling:

I don't need no money, fortune, or fame.
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim.

It's required to be willing to remove your barriers to let that special one into your life.  Let her "see" you.  Trust he will like what he sees. Show your feelings for everything you feel passionate about.  Look inside yourself to find and feel those passions.  If you let it all "hang out," you will find that special person who makes you say:

I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
