Please allow me to be honest for a moment..
I read an article online about some girl who just got engaged to her highschool sweetheart and it put me in a sentimental mood..well, ok-maybe I was already in one, but still..I have always wanted to marry my highschool sweetheart. I have always been fascinated by stories of people who met in highschool and married later on in life. But alas..highschool is almost over and I don’t have a sweetheart-in fact, I don’t even have any options. I was talking to a friend the other night about the whole boyfriend/girlfriend thing..and I decided that while I don’t need a boyfriend, it doesn’t change the desire to want one. Esp. since my two best friends have boyfriends that I can totally see both of them marrying..Not that I am complaining..I am totally convinced God has the right guy out there and that he is going to be more then I could ever dream of..but there is still that part of me that hasn’t died yet. Still that part of me that refuses to be content in the current place I am. I would like to be like Paul, and say, “I have learned to be content in every circumstance.” But as my senior year dwindles down, I am learning to be content and learning to enjoy the moment-not spend it waiting for the next one. And I am learning to be thankful for the place God has me..It hasn’t always been easy and God has used some tough situations to get me to this place..but every situation God has used to mold me into His son..and someday..I will find my prince charming..and he will sweep my off my feet and ride me off into the sunset..
Just a thought..
