It would have been so easy, over the last few months, to dwell on "wasted time." Five years spent in a relationship that went nowhere sounds like a waste, right? I'll admit that, at first, that was my focus. I couldn't believe I let myself miss out on opportunities to meet great guys because I couldn't get past the situation I was in. But this quote really hit home for me. If it wasn't for everything I went through during that time--each moment, each unique circumstance--I wouldn't be where I am right now. I wouldn't know more about myself, I wouldn't know what I want (and very clearly don't want) in a relationship. Right now, at this moment, I'm in a good place. I feel positive about my future and am confident that God has something awesome in store for me, whatever that may be. I'll admit that I'm a bit nervous not knowing what the future holds when for so long I thought I did, but I'm excited to find out! My journey, over the last five years, over the last 24 years, has prepared me for whatever lies ahead. I don't have regrets, I'm not looking back. I'm looking forward, moving on, and taking with me the lessons that life has taught me so far. Now is right on time.
