I have found the one whom my soul longs for..

I know it's been a while again...  My life has been amazing but also a whirlwind and I just haven't set aside the time to write.  But today, today I am inspired!

If you've read my previous posts, you've heard me talk about this mythical creature that seems to rarely exist in our society nowadays.  It's called a gentleman.  Wow, what is that you say?  Believe it or not, they actually exist!  In honor of this post, I saw this picture on pinterest and had to include it.

Debonair used to be sexy and now idiots are paid for reality shows

But ladies, guess what?  They do exist!!  I've seen other friends with them and just thought all the good ones were taken, but no.  At 28, I can finally say I've found him!  You know that saying? "Every woman deserves a man who calls her baby, kisses her like he means it, holds her like he never wants to let her go, doesn't cheat or lie.  Wipes her tears when she cries, doesn't make her jealous of other women, instead makes other women jealous of her, is not scared to let his friends know how he really feels about her, and lets her know how much he really loves her."  That's my boyfriend!  

Of course, I brag at all the sweet things he does for me and my girl friends are always asking if he can teach lessons to their husbands and boyfriends.  My friends are always like "I'm so jealous but I am so happy for you".  

He makes me a better person..  He holds me accountable..  He never stops trying to show me how much I mean to him.  I believe Frank Sinatra said it best, "I may sound old-fashioned, but I want to think all women should be treated like I want my wife, daughters, and granddaughters to be treated. I notice today that good manners—like standing up when a woman enters the room, helping a woman with her coat, letting her enter an elevator first, taking her arm to cross the street—are sometimes considered unnecessary or a throwback. These are habits I could never break, nor would I want to. I realize today a lot more women are taking care of themselves than in the past, but no woman is offended by politeness." THAT is my boyfriend.  He treats me like he would want a man to treat his mother and believes EVERY woman should be treated that same way.  He opens my door, opens the door for others, helps me across the street in heels and helps others too.  When I meet him some where, he and his friends stand up to greet me.

And to think I pushed him away at first.. To think I said "this isn't a good time" and I thought he deserved better.  Then I realized being afraid of happiness is complete nonsense.

Bonfire.   What began as a trash heap in 1909 grew into a massive wedding cake design, which at its tallest stood 109 feet, 10 inches. Bonfire symbolized A&M’s burning desire to beat the hell out of t.u. It was a task of a monstrous size instituted and executed almost entirely by students over the course of a near-century.  It brought to together the Corps of Cadets, non-regs, residential halls, men, and women to build this monument to Aggie dedication and fervor. Bonfire became emblematic of Aggieland and held a meaning greater than just the desire to win a football game. It symbolized the Aggie spirit and a dedication and drive for building something greater than ourselves.   Those who saw it burn on campus have said there was nothing like it. The heat and flame was so much that it even burned their shadows into the ground. Those who built it can attest to the sheer amount of strength and manpower it took to construct a project of that size and magnitude. ...

Follow Me

 Follow Me..   That's what God asks us to do.. and as believers we say, of course we will follow you!  But what if he tells us to go some where we don't want to go?  Like Jonah being called to preach to those who will persecute his people.  So he fled.  And you know how that story goes; the whale in God's mercy gets him back to dry land; and when Jonah finally followed his calling, on the first day in his journey the entire town repented.. For as long as I can remember, I've wanted to live in Dallas, 12 years now actually.  I love Dallas!  The food, the shops, the fashion... And since living here, I've fallen in love with one of the most important things, my church.  The people at Watermark have been AMAZING!  They've poured into me, encouraged me, and thanks to a bible study last March, helped me get over one of the darkest times in my life.  Helped me to receive forgiveness (:  God has been an extremely loving father my time...

Let Go and Let God!

"When the past is still guiding your present, it also shapes your future.  That is way too much power."  There is something bigger ahead and something greater in store for you.  However, the past has a pulling power that can distract, delay, and even destroy your destiny.  Instead of giving the past power, give it perspective.   You must press onward and refuse to look back by destroying the bridges that connect you to your P.A.S.T.  What P eople, A ssociations, S ituations and T hings are hurting you instead of helping you?  What do you nee d to leave behind in order to move forward? Who do you need to forgive in order to push forward? Last night at the Porch, my friend Dave Sterrett, spoke to us with a message on forgiveness and letting go of the past.  Now before I continue, let me clarify it is okay to reminisce and talk about the past and experiences. But when your attitude changes to resentment, "if this would have happened then..." or "if...
