My Second Wind

Because I am a christian I have to attribute all of what I am about to say to my relationship that I have with God...

I can truly say at this moment, God has given me my second wind.  I must admit that I took a hard fall after my last failed relationship but what I have realized over the last 2 weeks is that I love myself so much more than that relationship.  I had to realize that God has his hand all throughout my life and things happen for a reason.  I am not bitter nor have I ever really been about no longer being in a relationship because the last one taught me how to love again... Not only to love another person wholeheartedly but love myself completely again. 

I say that because I believe that I was truly broken through-out the last 7 years...  I had a failed marriage and no solid foundation to stand on.  But now I have realized that I had to continue to stand on the word of God and things will happen in the order that he wants them to.  I am actually proud of myself for standing strong and allowing my walk to influence the walk of my two precious daughters.  I know that this blog is dedicated to my single life blunders and wonders but I had to take a moment and give praise where praise is due...

Be Blessed everyone and live life like there is no tomorrow.

Am I getting in my own way?

Long time no see... LOL...  Anyway recently I was asked out on a dinner date from someone that I have known for a while.  He asked me out via text on a Tuesday and I responded, after much thought, on a Thursday and agreed to go out.  When he responded he said "Wow! What a late response. Lol!" and I didn't respond to that.  So a few days later he sends yet another text and ask "Where you chillin at tonight?  Trying to figure out where I'm going.  Would be nice to run into you.".  I was in the house for the evening and advised him of that. 

At this point he hadn't even scheduled the dinner date so finally he asked *ME* when is dinner happening and I respond with you tell me.  So in my mind I think... HERE WE GO AGAIN...  I mean if a man ask a woman out on a date, shouldn't he have some idea of what he wants to do, when he wants to go, etc... I know I have children and you may be taking them into consideration but I have already told you that I am flexible...

So I suggest to go to a festival on Saturday to chill and listen to live music and you tell me that you are not "feeling" that... REALLY!!!  I will not let this one situation guide my feelings towards dating again but dang-it this is the second time this has happened to me... 

Dating is like finding a needle in a hay stack...
