its always good to feel the warmth of someone's arms around you.
hmm. putting yourself through the typical "high school relationships" seems so juvenile when out of one, yet so important when in one. Juvenile, yet you long for it. Important, yet you doubt it will last forever. I'm anxious, so anxious to see who God has in planned for me, for my friends, for my family. Im definetely not one to say that relationships are evil, not at all! And its not to say that relationships are all going to turn out horribly! However, it is to say that the "opportunity cost" (thank you mr. robinson) may make it not worth your time. How often do you see someone in a hallway crying, complaining, or upset over a relationship? Is the relationship really worth the pain? It's so frustrating for me to see people so constantly angry at each other but even more determined to make it work. Christ alone is the perfect example of how to love each other. How are we supposed to make a relationship work if we cannot even first learn to love Christ, who loves unconditionally? How in the world will we understand how to love each other if we cannot even love Christ? Christ is our Prince Charming, the one true lover of our hearts. I wonder, especially to myself, how in the world I will ever be ready to love my husband. Not just love, but submit and honor him as I should. Obviously no one is perfect, but shouldn't I at least be trying to love Christ as I want to love my husband? Christ loves me no matter what, and well, my husband will probably be a tad bit "biased" towards his own ways. I am (hopefully) going to marry someone and be married for about 3/4 of my life. So while I'm single, shouldn't I be learning how to love?
