I'm Single and I'm Ok with it!

The only man I NEED is Jesus!

I'm Single and I'm Ok with it!
Breanna Waterhouse

It is no surprise that with summer comes romance, well for some. I am 19 years old and yes, I am single, but I'm ok with it!

There is no special guy in my life, for now, and that is completely ok. I do not need a guy to complete me, because I know that is not the way to be fulfilled. The only way I will ever be fulfilled, is to give everything to Jesus Christ. He is the only one that can fulfill me!

Now, just because I am single, and ok with it, does not mean that I'm not open to the possibility of romance. I am. I know that God has a plan for my life, and when it is the right time, the right man will come into my life.

I am so young! I am not going to dwell on the fact that I am single and let that define me... I have so much life to live, I do not need a guy ruining it! I am so beyond happy to live it up while I can, making memories with my friends and family. :)

While I wait for said special guy, I will pray. I will pray for my future husband, and for myself. I will pray that I can accept love when it comes my way and keep Jesus in the center of that relationship. But for now, I will be the supportive, single friend that I need to be, and one day my friends will play the same role in my life.

As for all of you single gals like me reading this, I just want to encourage you to wait. Wait for a guy that is going to respect you and your morals. He will come along, I promise, but for now, enjoy the single life! Most importantly, lean on Jesus Christ. He has a magnificent plan for each and every one of us, and He will lead you to the man of your dreams if you let Him have control of all of it. Trust Him, and girls the result will be better than you ever thought possible.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
