Remember that 80’s song, Let’s Here It for the Boy? Deniece Williams belted it out as she sang about her “less than beau” that “doesn’t dress fine” and “sings off key” but she loved him, anyway?

I always felt bad for that character in the song, whether fictional or not. I thought, why does she have to sing to praise him up? If she loves him, that’s all that matters. I mean, the man is “watching every dime” and making her laugh, so, sounds like he’s on the right track.

I thought about this the other day as I was thinking about how little we celebrate the little wins.
