Hello all Just a quick update. I'm actively looking to buy my own place. I've decided to live somewhere I've never lived. A clean start, new surroundings, new life. Good-bye to my old self, hello to the new woman. "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me." I'm not looking for a man, a relationship, nothing. I'm looking to fall in love......with me! Once I'm there, then maybe I'll have room for a special person. But, they are going to have to be special. No more compromising myself or my beliefs. Looking back, I've had my eyes on man, which has been my downfall. Men have cost me my youth, money, energy and my individuality. I've always thought my job was to make sure the other person was happy and I always thought they were. But the problem was, they weren't happy with themself, which filtered down to me and made me unhappy. I will not fall for that trick anymore. My goal is to surround myself with positive and people of like mind. No more looking to make a relationship work. Either it's good or it's bad and nothing in between. Yeah, I know that this may sound a little unrealistic because all relationships have problems, but I think it's simple, either they are the type person that can work through problems, or they're not. And I believe it's easy to see what kind of person they are when you watch to see how they handle life's problems. I know that I've done a very poor job with that myself, but I'm growing every day. I'm detaching from my old life everyday. I'll get there, one step at a time. The first step is the hardest but I'm convinced with every step that I take, I'm one step closer to my goal. I feel good today!
