Why You Are Still Single

Most of my good ideas aren't really mine; rather, they're from past-me, the best me there ever was. Granted, current me is pretty good, but you can never top the wisdom of a young person whose sole focus was an unjumbled and uncomplicated view of God.

One piece of wisdom from past-me is that there's one real definite definable reason why you are still single. You are single because you, as you currently are, are not the person for your future spouse yet. And neither is your future spouse. Your future spouse is also not perfect for you yet. She/he is currently dealing with issues that, frankly, would probably trip the two of you up. And guess what? You are dealing with similar issues. Or maybe you aren't dealing with anything at all, and that's the problem.

The point is, if you're single, you haven't met your future spouse because your future spouse doesn't exist yet. It could be what your best friend turns into, or what some Irish or French woman turns into (my hope). Trust in God and keep letting Him shape and form you, and let the sucky lonely times be sucky, but don't go thinking that you're missing out on something. That something is being molded into a hot-bodied perfection even as you read this.

nice reflection. from my point of view though being single has more than one reason: a choice, fate, etc. The best thing is people should always be ready to love and be loved.
