No Complaints

I have nothing to complain about today. There is something I could complain about...I will tell you about it, but I am not complaining, and here is why...

So, living is a small town everybody knows everybody, so everybody, or most everybody knows my ex-boyfriend. Well, I have had issues with guys not wanting to go on dates with me because they know him/ friends with him/ grew up with him, whatever....at first I really let that hurt my feelings and get me down. It happened again this week, and for 6 months of it happening, its just gotten to the point that now I am like...FORGET ALL Y'ALL WHO THINK YOUR TOO GOOD FOR ME!! If something like that is gonna keep someone from giving me a chance then you don't deserve the chance to be with me. I think God did pretty good with me and so I am not gonna let myself get down about something like that anymore. I may not be perfect but to some man I will be perfect to him, and he is gonna realize what a catch I am. I am gonna spoil the heck out of him, and treat him like he deserves because he is gonna treat me like I deserve. No more settling. Last week the sermon was on marriage and preparation for it. Well, I have always prayed that God would send me my man, but the preacher said that you should pray that God be preparing you for your wife/husband so that when He does send them you are the best you can be. So that's what I am gonna do. I am gonna be working and praying to make myself better for whoever you are.

Lately I have been really working to make myself a better person. I have tried to take a step back and think about what I need to do to be a better me. I am working on lots of stuff. Some stuff, most stuff, nobody knows about. But I think part of maturing as a person should be about working to make oneself better. If you stop growing then you become stagnant, complacent. A life without forward movement is barely a life at all. What do you want for your children? Would you be happy knowing that they were settling for a "C Average" lifestyle? If you wouldn't want that for them, why is it ok for you? I have decided mediocrity is no longer ok for me...I am working to improve myself inwardly and my situation outwardly...and I encourage you to do the same. If we are all making strides to be better people, we will be happier and better to eachother...I think that's very worth the effort...dont you?

Have a GOODloe day!
