Being Single

Remember those Disney movies we watched as kids? The movies about the princess looking for Mr. Right? Or the movies about stumbling upon your future husband? Nowadays, we feel so much pressure from the media, friends or family to find our perfect fit before our 30's. Of course, I am on the look out for my future husband, just like anyone else, but I am also enjoying being single. Since, I am an optimistic person, here is just a quick list about the benefits of being single.

Benefits of Being Single:

• No late night phone calls - This means more time for my pillow and I to get better acquainted.
• Saving money - You only need to pay for yourself when you go out for dinner! 
• No controversy - You can hangout with friends male or female whenever you want, no special permission needed.
• You can focus on school - School is very important. If you are spending thousands of dollars for someone to teach you, you better listen up!
• You can be spontaneous - Go on a fishing trip with your best buds or fly out to Florida for some personal beach time.
• You can find yourself - While single you can find out who you really are. While you are single you can find out what your dreams and goals are. 

Pep Talk:

As humans want to feel loved and needed by another person. We want to find Mr./Mrs. Right. God already knows who we are going to marry, when we are going to marry them and if the marriage will last. There is no reason for us to obsess about finding our mate when God already knows this. So my advice, enjoy being single. Enjoy the fact that you are not tied down and you can have as much fun as you want, whenever you want. God's timing is perfect, and when he thinks you are ready, he will provide you with someone you can't live without.
