As promised, here's some more ramblings...
Chick-fil-A. I really don't want to get into a big debate with anyone. And let me make it clear that the president of Chick-fil-A is entitled to his opinion, and so am I, and so are you. But, what makes me sad is the lack of love I am hearing from some people. Let's remember what Jesus instructed us, "Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” (Matthew 22:37-40). Pretty simple if you ask me.
Adultery - With that said, I hear outrage from people about the subject of gay marriage, but what about adultery? It happens often. It's one of the ten commandments. But, not many people are standing on street corners preaching that adultery is wrong. I feel like it is understood in our society. A fact of life. I don't like how weddings are glorified while marriages are made a joke. I'm not positive, but I believe only a handful of people tried to hold my ex-husband accountable for his affair (and to those people, I thank you). Some of his friends even encouraged it, welcomed it. It wasn't like he was cheating on his high school girlfriend, he left his wife and child.
I know my life is better without him. I know I deserve better. I know it's all part of a greater plan, but just something I wanted to get out.
Dating. OMG. Do you know how hard it is to date? I know I'm not old, but I am knocking on 30's door. I'm not exactly 22 anymore. Left to my own devices, the dating scene has not treated me well. Logically, there are not many opportunities for me to meet someone. I live in a small town. I know a good majority of the people. Where do I go? Bars? Church? Walmart? Online? Seriously, it's tough. I want to be pursued by a man. Not stalked, not ignored, but pursued. I'm pretty awesome. I just need a chance to prove it.
Control. So, dating is not something I can control. I guess I could, but do I really want to date someone that I have to force to go out with me? Maybe? No. Therefore, I am trying to focus on things I can control. Running, for example. My diet. My beauty routine. Just focusing on my overall awesomeness and improving said awesomeness.
This concludes my ranting for today.

Love the ramblings! And yes, you are awesome!
