Congratulations, Tyler is so right!!! As if he needs anyone’s Praise!!!
I have been in the mist of Mr. Tyler Perry’s comings and goings, if you will from across the miles…Seeing his works manifest and bloom into a full grown “bush”, blue spruce. He is a blessed man, and has turned around the face of creation in a people. Being Black in America alone, has had it’s many trials, as Tyler Perry. Branching into the Hollywood industry has been a trying situation for him, as well as a belittling one. Refusing to except him for who he is, “A God sent Man”. With a message per every play/movie ever written, having a need to express the life theme of “forgiveness” to it’s ultimate being, love, peace, uniting, family, caring, giving from the heart in sincerity, to open the eyes of a people, unspecified by race or gender, whom has as “Jesus” carried a big Cross. Enduring his own life’s ups and downs, turning his experiences in the “positives”, so that we may all learn how one has to bare and carry one’s own cross, to make it through, in this life… Through homelessness, joblessness, family structure with dysfunction, how to overcome, forgiveness, with kindness, knowing vengence isn’t his. I say those that have undertones for Tyler Perry in the explorting him as being anything but a true Child of God, needs to be watchful of there actions, for there is a God, our Father, who sits High, and Looks Low, and knows who you are, and what you say and do, to Mr.Tyler Perry. He’s Brilliant, remarkable, stunning, and an eye opener for America. Beware, this number 1 spot won’t be his last, at 21.5 million!!! It’s just the beginning!!! Praise God!!! Continue to let Your Light “Lord” forever Shine!!! Through, the Unshakable!Undeterred!Blessed! “TYLER PERRY”
With Lots of Love…
