The daily quote says: "Suffering predisposes the mind to devoutness." He's got to be talking about dating! Especially dating once again. LOL
I'm guessing the suffering part comes from all the frogs you have to kiss to meet your prince or princess.
I'll tell you, when I first did online dating, I was AMAZED at how many guys there were just withing my 40 mile ranges! I was like a kid in the candy store.
BUT, then I quickly found out that it increased the odds of: meeting more wackos, meeting more guys to find one to go out with, and then it really did increase the odds of meeting that special one.
So, kiddos, we all have to "suffer" through the process to reap the end results. BUT, my suggestion is to enjoy the process. Don't let it be work. Don't let it be boring. Don't let it be a chore. Find the good in everything. Even a cup of coffee with someone you don't "click" with but who you do spend an hour with. There's got to be ONE positive you can take from the experience even if it's just: he paid for your tea or she paid for your coffee!

Lori, you are the most positive person I know. It is always fun to be around you and hear your take on things. Love the part about "enjoy the process." Glad you are keeping us posted on your latest adventures. Hope there are some exotic trips in your future, because I liked hearing about those, too. I'm living vicariously through you girl!! mary kennedy
ReplyDeleteAnd if you can't find the good in the situation, at least it provides fodder for the book...or this blog!
