She continued, “I don’t like that ugly, bitter feeling ’cause that’s not mine. That belongs to you. You did what you did. But I have to move on and in order for me to feel good and to manifest all the good things in my life, I have to let go for me. Not for you, this is not for you. Trust me, this is not for you, this is for me.”
After Mary said that she wants to “walk in that joy” and “newness,” Sherri, 57, asked if she was dating someone new.
“You know already Sherri, everybody knows. Yes,” Mary responded before adding that the relationship with the mystery man is “going well.”
“I feel good about me. I look good TO ME. I feel good to ME,” Mary continued. “And so, I’m embracing me. So when you embrace you, everything is embracing you. When you want you, everything wants you. Everything good.”
Mary then added that the relationship is going well “because I’m not holding anybody accountable about making me feel good for me.”
Next month, Mary and these 7 other stars will be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!
