Daily Insight: Almost Doesn't Count

A wise man once said “almost made you love, almost made you cry, almost made you happy babe, couldn’t imagine why, almost had me thinking you had turned around…but everyone knows almost doesn’t count.” This song was written by Brandy when she was in her teens, but she was wise beyond her years.

I see it happen all too often. A half ass effort is but forth when pursing a love interest, and it’s never gonna count. You almost had me thinking you were serious about leaving girlfriend #2 alone, you almost convinced me you would actually follow through on a plan, you almost had me sitting around wating on your call everynight…but almost doesn’t count.

The most prolific line in the song goes “I can’t keep on loving you one foot outside the door.” Amen Brandy, I say to all the almost doesn’t count ass niggas in the world either bring the other foot in the door, or step your ass all the way out, and don’t forget to close it after.
