After enduring a dreary 10-minute thought process, I came to the conclusion, for reasons I shall not divulge, to start a new blog. The main point of this piece is Ecclesiastes 3:1-8.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.
a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted
a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
a time to tear, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.
If everything under heaven has a season, that must include relationships. As a woman, I thrive on relationships. Even if I am in a tiff with an aquantence (if I got into a tiff with an aquantience) I would obsess about it until it resolves. Unfortunately, that seems to be a downfall. I apologize much to easily, even when I should'nt. But at least it keeps the clouds at bay. At my age (20) many of my friends are off getting planning their weddings or out on dates with there soon-to-be betrothed. And, as a single dame in a pool of white dresses and 3-tiered cakes, reality often feels a bit...real. At 20, I realize, this should not be a worry of mine. And, truth be told, its not! Because in reality, I AM married. I have the one who lets me cry on his shoulder when times are fragile and the one that I get to cook for each night (metaphorically). I could go to the heavens and back again. Although I am excited to meet the one God has made best for me, I am completely content with being a duo at the moment. Because "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under the sun." Every relationship has its season, and it is up to God when he was to match my heart with my earthly beloved.
