No one in the world.




There are some songs that I love simply because of the memories they bring back to me.  I remember spending time with a family member, and it was my first time as an adult spending time at their home.  I got to know their spouse better and I ended up spending more time with them then I did with my actual family member.  We had a great time.  We watched movies, we ate good food and we talked.  This person began to open up and share some beautiful things about their relationship.

I could have listened to them share their experiences all night--and I sorta did.  Before we knew it hours had went by and it was too late for me to leave so it was decided that I would stay the night and plans were made for a big breakfast and more chatting.  I went to sleep tired but content and hopeful because I went to sleep full of beautiful love stories.





Well before morning came, I was woken up by loud music.  Anita Baker's "No One In The World" was playing loudly and it was on repeat.  Because it was not originally planned for me to stay the night, I ended up crashing on the couch and when I rubbed my eyes to better see there was the person that I sat with all night telling me these beautiful love stories.  They were up in the kitchen cleaning to Anita Baker and singing into the broom.  

By the second time of the song re-playing (since I'd fully woken up), that I was really focused in on the words to the song and how intently and passionately they sung it. I could tell that instead of that broom they were really seeing the person they loved and even in their imagination you could still see it on their face.



I decided right then that I couldn't wait until I felt that very feeling.  I wanted to sing in the kitchen to a broom about someone that "no one in the world" could ever compare to.


I look back on all those good timesWe once shared, and I must have been blindJust to think, I'd find someone newOne who'd love me better than youWell it may come as a surpriseLoneliness has opened my eyesI've tried every love I could findStill I can't get you out of my mind'Cause there's
No one in the world, to hold meNo one in the world's gonna move meNo one in the world can love me like you do babyEvery time I'm with someoneLoving you, yes I want to runI want to run back to your arms againAin't no one in the world (no one in the world)Loves me like you do
Are you happy now with your lifeWell for me, I'm breaking insideSo self-assured, that I could not seeI had it all when you were with me baby
No one in the world's gonna hold meNo one in the world can move meNo one in the world can love me like you do babyEvery time I'm with someoneLoving you, and I want to runI want to run back to your arms againAin't no one in the world (no one in the world)Loves me like you do
Please take me back (please take me back)Oh babe, I can't go on (I can't go on)I'm not happy in my life without youI'll do whatever it takesI've gotta get you back with me again (gotta get you back here again)I've realized I need you here in my life
No one, no one (no one in the world)Nobody loves me like you (no one in the world)(Like you do baby)(Every time)You've got the love that I needAin't nobody round here to love me
And no one in the worldIn this worldIn this worldOh (no one in the world)

Why You Might Be Paying More Than Your Neighbor for the Same Product

Surveillance Pricing: The Hidden Cost of Your Personal Data Have you ever noticed that prices seem to fluctuate depending on how and where you shop? Maybe you’ve used Instacart or another grocery delivery app and found that the price of your favorite milk online is higher than what you’d pay in-store. At first, these small discrepancies might seem like an unavoidable part of online shopping. But what if I told you that businesses might be charging you more based on who you are? Surveillance pricing is a practice where companies use personal data—such as your age, gender, income level, or even your location—to adjust the prices you see. Essentially, what you pay for everyday items could depend on what retailers assume you can afford. A recent Federal Trade Commission (FTC) study revealed how this type of pricing discrimination is becoming more common, with companies using advanced algorithms to analyze consumer behavior and set prices accordingly. For example, someone shopping in a low...

In the Last Days: The Church vs. The Black Israelites

In the Last Days: The Church vs. The Black Israelites Across social media, a recent viral moment has sparked intense discussion within the faith community. A prayer event led by Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchel was met with protests by a group identifying as the Black Israelites — reigniting long-standing debates about faith, race, and identity in the Black community. The confrontation, caught on video, shows the deep divide growing between traditional Christianity and movements that challenge its authority and cultural roots. The Black Israelites, also known as the Hebrew Israelites, are members of a religious movement that teaches that African Americans are the direct descendants of the ancient Israelites — the chosen people of the Bible. This belief system holds that through the transatlantic slave trade, African Americans were stripped of their true identity, history, and divine purpose. While not all Black Israelite groups are identical in their teachings, most share common beliefs: ...
