Today it has been 6 months since I started dating John. This is longer than all my previous relationships combined. Needless to say, it has been a huge learning experience for me. It has shaken the very foundation of my identity. It has been scary, exciting, comfortable, and very therapeutic.
I used to be so impatient to find the right person. I was convinced God was keeping him from me just to test my patience... which he might have been. I don't think I succeeded in waiting patiently. I may have kept a calm exterior, but inside I was buzzing with annoyance. I'm glad I made it. He was definitely worth the wait.
I guess this gives me confidence that someday my career will follow suit. Just like I began to doubt whether the right person would ever show up in my life, I also doubt whether I'll ever find a good job or finish the education I need to get a good job. If my previous success has been any indication, this will definitely happen for me, however, sometimes its difficult to stay hopeful. But just like I trusted God and I was eventually blessed to find John, I trust that I will find rewarding work as well.
I dedicate this post to John: the love of my life.
