so, its 31 degrees outside. i just got back from a walk. i didnt do much walking. mostly star gazing. absolutely beautiful. makes me feel kind of insignificant. i mean seriously, i am one kid in a world of i dont even know how many billions. what the heck can one kid living in this litte town do by himself? nothing. but the great thing is that i'm not by myself in this. no matter how lonely i feel, im not. even when i get that longing in my soul that i cant even put to words, the one that can only really be described as a groan from the deepest part of me, i know that im alright.
i think that its kind of funny, in a somewhat sad way, that people think that others can fulfill this loneliness. what they fail to realize is that everybody is just as messed up as they are.
ladies, guys cant fill that.
guys, ladies cant fill that.
now, this whole idea of "the one." i know a lot of people dont really know what im talking about when i say that, but a lot of people that i know do. so. yes..."the one." why is everybody so concerned about finding the one? im serious. if anybody can give me a good answer, please do not hesitate to do so. there isnt anybody out there that can make your life perfect. for example, i saw a movie the other night called fever pitch. if there are any hopeless romantics reading this, im sorry to break it to you, but thats not how things work. people dont complete other people. there is no such thing as a perfect relationship. it might get close, but two imperfect people cannot make something perfect. it just doesnt work. people tend to get this idealized picture of what they want their relationship to be, but it can never be. "but it was in the movies." come on. thats the movies. do you really think that people would go pay money to see a movie about two people who fall in love, then by some series of events end up hating each other when the movie is over? people wont pay to see that. but people will pay to see the generic happily ever after ending.
oui;ndnfauisnfuisanf <----thats frustration
all in all, people need to realize that the idea of "the one" as in the person who will complete them in all of their entirety isnt out there. people were not made to complete others. that does not mean that "the one" as in the person that God has destined you to spend the rest of your life with does not exist (yes, God destined. thats a whole different topic, i know).
why are so many people worried about the whole deal about "the one"? i want to know.
"Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard you hearts and minds as you live in Jesus Christ." Philippians 4:6,7
so dont worry about it.
