It's so strange...so many people are married or engaged to be married. Or they are in a relationship that you know is absolutely 150% leading towards marriage. I love weddings and I don't think there is a single couple getting married or who are already married that I would say aren't meant to be together. That's the incredible thing about it...we are a new generation and I know, especially with the couples I went to high-school with, that those divorce "norms" won't be norms anymore. God has had a hand in every couple that is together, you can just tell and I am so happy for all of them! Some I know very well others I don't, but you just get that feeling. Love is in the air and it's here to stay!! :-)
I was talking with Patti last week, one of our RTs, and she asked me why I was so standoffish to one of the rehab guys. I asked her what she meant and she said when he asked me if I was single I said "yes and proud of it!" then walked away in a huff. I did WHAT?! After that was brought to my attention I decided something needs to change here. I am constantly being pushed from within to get back to where I once was way back when I would be able to put my full trust in someone and not think "oh that guy's obviously a loser and a cheater and a liar!" every time I pass a random guy. I have become, when it comes to men, something I have worked my entire life not to become-judgemental. There are incredible, wonderful, loving guys out there. Now that I can say that out loud again (thank the lord for that one!) I think I can start believing it. Linda said I'm going to be one of the late-bloomers, the last one to "finally get married" but I don't see it that way. I'm twenty two years old for pete sakes! I haven't met my guy yet and when I do, by the grace of God, I will know it. And I think I can say that after a LOT of work and with the help of God, and my friends and family, I'm back to being open to it. My faith is restored!! Thus, a heartbreak that we all go through did NOT destroy me afterall! (I say years later...well hey it takes time!) :-) I think I am open to maybe going on a date soon...maybe! Well there go the nerves again. Ahhhh! Seriously though, my faith is restored and that is a start right? Right. And, for the record, I apologized to the rehab guy and he told me that it was ok, but that I should know that not all guys are losers. Exactly! Thank you rehab guy! :-)
Yikes! Sarah will be here for lunch soon! Which means I need to decide what we're going to have;-)
Love you all! God bless,
