Well I've realized something... part of this quest requires my vision to be broad, but I have a tendency to be too broad. I am perfectly content with being single the rest of my life but I have a desire to live my life... in a way that I haven't really yet, and sometimes I confuse things surrounding that. For instance I want to have a career (like now), a house, a car (which I do), and this whole blog is about... a spouse. I realize though, that sometimes I feel that if I had a spouse it would bring me one step closer to living my life the way I've described (because with a spouse you have to have a house/living arrangements etc.). This brings in my thoughts of a "too broad" perspective, that in the past I have "fallen in love with every girl that has legs" which isn't good, and I have narrowed my perspective a little, but I have also changed what I see. in the past I see potential partners with excites the part of me that wants a spouse and so I jump the gun and after only one or two dates I want to marry them (or not even dates but just conversations lol :S). At this point, like I said, I am content being single but that doesn't mean that its hard not to fall. To try and help with this I have created a list of requirements, I know many may fit it, but only one will exemplify it, and only one is God's plan for me. When she stumbles into my life I would like to know it.
• Loves Jesus
o Her love for Jesus has to be an inspiration... that I am challenged to love Jesus more, not because of her actions but her love
• Caring heart (awww factor)
• “Suitable in Chicago”
o Would be ok living majority of their life in the City (Chicago)
o And would be willing to go wherever God leads
• Have a dream, vision, aspiration to drive them
• I have to think she’s beautiful
• Sense of opportunity ( a “dreamer”)
o What if? Mentality
• People oriented/outgoing
• “someone who's okay with you taking the lead, and that respects your authority and welcomes it in her life”
• Hopes of changing the world
o Understanding that the world as is, is broken, and that she wants to make her impact in whatever way she can
• Best friend
o She has to be my best friend, share things with me and me with her
if you read this and have questions... I would love to answer them. So that's it for tonight, later "y'all"
