Sorry I haven't blogged in awhile... life gets busy and when it does, things like this tend to get away from you. I take it this is a good sign in my case :)
Two points for today:
1) In light of recent discussions, I would like to post this quote: “I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.”- Anais Nin.
Amen. Make sure you surround yourself with men (or women) who fit this bill because they are the only ones worth having. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. Those who cannot are cowards. Thank goodness I have one (well, many) in my life that get this.
2) I was comparing accepting invitations/dates from less than perfect candidates with a friend the other day, not as a means of lowering your expectations but as a way of allowing yourself to be surprised by people. The best and most wonderful people who come into your life are not always the most obvious right away. It's a matter of perspective. Then I got to thinking as I was driving this morning (and after reading my horoscope) that while nostalgia and memories can take up space in our hearts and minds, we shouldn't let them crowd out the new. There is not infinite space for both so every once in awhile some spring cleaning is necessary. Clear out old dreams, old flames, moments that exist in the past and cannot be repeated. This is not a bad thing... rather, it gives you a chance to focus on the present and future so that they too can one day take up space in your soul and give you a true sense of nostalgia and happiness.
That's all I have for today. Happy June, happy Monday, happy midwest heat wave.
