Rock This Single Life

Sometimes I look at my life & I think, "I can rock this single life." Then those times where loneliness creeps in & I find myself thinking, "What the hell did I do that was so bad that I deserve this kind of punishment?"

In life I meet people & I think, "Ok! Let's see where this goes." I know I am a woman & we don't see things near the same as guys. As women we tend to look too far ahead & over think things. We envision rings on our fingers before we even get a first date. We see the white picket fence in front of the cute country house before he even says those all too famous three little words.

As I go through this stage in my life I tend to sometimes question why God slams doors in my face. Why can't He just gently close them? Why must they always be slammed? Then as time goes on I realize that if some of these doors were gently closed I might not learn the lesson & try to walk back through them. I've caught myself trying to reopen some of those slammed doors just to have them slammed again. One day I might learn my lesson.

After I get over the stage of, "Why did you do this to me, God?" I come to realize that He knows some of what He's doing. So when "Let's see where this goes" comes along I have learned to pray about it & just ask Him to go before me on this trip & if I'm going to come out hurt to just close that door before I picture myself with the ring on my finger & living in the cute country home with the picket fence.  

Sometimes I just have to sit back & let Him lead the way down this path & know that one day He will bless Hayden & I with the most amazing man. And when he blesses me with this man, I will have learned so many lessons that I can be the most amazing woman to this man. 

So here is to "Rocking this single life" & trusting in Him when "Lets see where this goes" comes around. I know that the best things come to those who wait...So I will wait & pray that the most amazing man is out there somewhere! 


This is what Rocking the single life is all about while 
Creating Our Own Normal!
