In the Meantime

I'll give you a brief background on my thoughts that got me penning this today. I was going over an old blog that believe it or not was my first unpublished post.


It had been a long time since I shared a thought on that blog of mine. Sooo long that I would have thought that from the night I penned "One of Those Nights", something magically romantic would have happened by now...but no sirree. The only thing that have come of this are the many dates that I've experienced. No chemistry, no committed relationship, and no ring. Just me trying to figure out if I have a sign somewhere on my body that's on display stating, "Beware", that only guys can see. A sign that makes them go the opposite direction or become unresponsive after I've given my phone number. You know...stuff like that!


As I sit here typing this, there is a part of me that is very reluctant to give up hope that there is someone out there for ME. In the meantime, I can continue to get my life together and keep LIVING. When I say living, I don't mean waking up in the morning and drawing breath. I mean making everyday count and enjoying my company while doing it. I read somewhere that the best time to get to know yourself is when you're single. Although I agree, it doesn't shake the feeling of wanting a romantic and camaraderie bond with that special someone.


It gets lonely sometimes. Yes! I said it! Now why all of sudden I'm thinking of that Lenny Williams song called, "Cause I Love You"? That song is the truth though. I'm willing to keep it real and be honest with myself. We are human and deep down inside, we desire a connection with someone regardless of how independent and carefree we are. Period. Regardless of the waiting, this is the time to go about being a better version of myself. This going about it includes self care, self improvement, and self enjoyment. From me to you, don't take this time for granted because we can't go back. This post is definitely a reminder for me to keep going and taking those steps to live up to my full potential. A reminder that the day we wake up, is the day to be better than the day before.

There is no pretense here. I want us to keep evolving and be the best version of ourselves. This doesn't always happen overnight but it's an effort that needs to be made on a continuous basis. The best part of this is the process of becoming...become that woman...become that man...become you.
