All the Single Ladies

I had a revelation today on the drive home from work. Matt was the first person I ever began dating because we both cared about each other and enjoyed being together. Every other dating relationship previous to him was started due to a desire for personal attention or in order to avoid being alone. But with my beloved, I grew to love him, could no longer imagine not being with him, and did the only thing that made sense anymore. So, to the question of How do you know he's the one? I now have an answer, though I know it's not the only one.

You know he's the one when...
          -It seems wrong to Not be with him.

See, it's not about comparing this guy to other guys or to the elusive Mr. Right. You know you're with the one, when you don't want to imagine your life without him anymore, and you know that you're willing to work things out with him when it gets hard.

Just a few words. Hope it's inspirational. KW

Back to Business

April this year was really busy for me. I turned the calendar one day and realized it was summer. Mid-June we decided to move from Mississippi to North Carolina, and suddenly it's September. It's true, I guess, that the years do pass by more quickly the older you get. Was it really nine months ago that I started this blog? . . .and five months ago that I updated? 


Well, the summer was a great time of reflection for me. My awesome friend Chesed reminded me how important it is to look back at your life and think about what God has taught you through the trials of life. I realized some lessons learned were only possible because of hard times I have endured. These lessons have improved my character and, furthermore, been the knowledge upon which later lessons were learned. 


There are a lot of things I learned over these last five months that I want to share with you, so I'm making a declaration here and now that I WILL POST ONCE A WEEK, starting now. Questions and comments keep me motivated, so tell me what you think (even if it disagrees with what I write) and share the blog with your friends! :) Here we go again...
