He'll Be Thankful

The right man will know just how lucky he is.

He'll Be Thankful

Sometimes you just have to accept the things that you can't change. You have to realize that you can't make someone see your value or appreciate you for all the wonderful things you have to offer. The boy that walked away, he wasn’t right for you; he didn’t see your worth. But the right man will be so thankful that guy didn’t. He will go above and beyond to show you that you are worthy of love and he will be so thankful that he is the one who gets to do so.

Maybe that guy didn’t tell you how beautiful you were, and the right guy will be so thankful that the other didn’t. Because every day he will look deep into your eyes and that look alone will assure you that you are a precious gem. He will remind you that while you are beautiful on the outside, it’s your heart that makes you radiant.

Remember that dude that only wanted to “chill” with you when it was most convenient for him? Well, the right guy will do whatever he can to spend time with you and get to know you for who you really are. Wait for a man who would move mountains just to be with you, you deserve it.

The boy who played all those mind games won’t even matter anymore when the right guy comes along. He will be clear with his intentions and pursue you in a way that honors the Lord and doesn’t leave you lonely and confused.

The right guy will be so thankful that the other boy had no plans for his future, because he will be a hard worker and diligent in all he does, a stark contrast to the boy who sat in front of his Xbox all day long. He will understand that anything worth having is worth working hard for, especially when it comes to your heart.

Remember the guy you had to try to convince you were worth his time? The right man will cherish the moments he gets to spend with you and will count down the minutes until he can see you again. When you have to convince a man that you are worth their time, that is when you know they are no longer worth yours.

When you asked him what he wanted to do or if he had any fun things planned, he would always respond with “I dunno, you choose.” But, the right guy will take the time and put in the effort to plan places for you to go and things for you to do. And he will be more than happy to do it.

The wrong guy will barely scratch the surface of who you are, while the right guy will light up with enthusiasm when you begin to talk about things you are passionate about. He will ask you questions and be involved in conversation, rather than just being halfway interested.

The one who left you frustrated and wondering why you were always on edge was definitely not the guy for you. The right guy will bring out the best in you and you will do the same for him. You will encourage and support one another without hesitancy.

You never knew if he was telling the truth and you always wondered where he was… that boy was not for you, and the right one will be so thankful. He will be honest with you and never leave you guessing; he will have integrity and be trustworthy in all he does.

The boy that you have to settle for is the wrong guy. And one day you’ll laugh, with the guy that is just right for you, at how much you let this matter.

But for now, just realize that you are worth a man pursuing you the right way. Have the courage to wait for that, the right guy will be so thankful you did.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
