Ending 2013

Hard to believe that this year is almost over. Yes, another year gone and I am still single! Ugh!!  True, I had the chance to be in a relationship but when a person tells you that you are not what he wants, believe it.  Even if he calls or writes later and wants to "move forward" regardless, don't do it. That's just madness. 

While I wish I had met a good man this year, I'm still a work in progress.  Anxities were unusually high at Thanksgiving and desperation ran amok in my head. Thankfully, it went nowhere. Praise God for loving me enough to keep me out of dead ends. 

Praise be for good friends who laugh at my insanity and love me anyway.  And for the extra special people in my life who let me vent without ceasing as they listen without judging. Praise be for those who tell it like it is with nothing but love in their hearts and for those I trust with my life. Praises for those who are quick to volunteer their help in projects I have no business tackling and for being taken into another's family.  

Its ok that I'm not seeing anyone. I know when the time is right, he will find me and it will be good. No games, no hurtful sarcasm, no bad hygiene, no compromise. Until then, I grow one step closer to earning my grown up status. So far gone yet so far to go. 

As this year comes to a close, I have decided my buzz word for 2014 is LOVE.  It seems like the natural choice considering the previous two. And maybe its time.
