Finding Yonder

A Day of Movies

Today I watched movies. That's it, just movies. Including Ever After, twice.

You'd think that it would have made me feel worse. But, as stupid as this is going to sound, it reminded me of how much a man SHOULD love a woman. They were in the right place at the right time, fell in love, and in the end that was all that mattered...that they loved each other.

I can't help but think our breakup had a lot to do with the rocky relationship that his parents had. He saw some potential problems in our relationship and balked, scared that we would become his parents. And let's face it, maybe he's not strong enough to step out of his mold and be the man he needs to be in order to be my husband. To be honest with me not because it's easy, but because we need it to survive.

But in the end, I will find someone who cares so much about me he will fight to overcome obstacles. He will cherish me and protect me, and will be my match in every way. He will love me both as a woman and as a Christian. We will walk together in God, who will provide us with the fulfillment in relationship that only He can bring.

That is what I want and deserve. I won't settle for anything less.
