Something that every single person has given thought to at one time, if not much of the time... and the way you address it is with characteristic nuanced sensitivity and loveliness. Very inspiring! I'm sending this to a friend I was just having a conversation with about these very same things today- she will really appreciate seeing it laid out so simply and truly. <br />Just beautiful!Catenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-83062443136864028732011-07-01T01:14:24.272-07:002011-07-01T01:14:24.272-07:00Such healthy wise words.Such healthy wise words.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-33211515504622689512011-07-01T01:11:14.310-07:002011-07-01T01:11:14.310-07:00Thank you.

A partner should be an enhancement to your already full life, not what completes it. In order to attract a great partner, you have to be on your own and understand yourself first and that takes a tremendous amount of work.For Those About To Shophttp://forthoseabouttoshop.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-46100868773748074842011-06-27T20:47:17.662-07:002011-06-27T20:47:17.662-07:00Wonderfully written and I so agree.

I completely agree with you and have given my own friends the same advice in the past. I truly believe that it is SO important to work on completing yourself and be happy with who you are, and when you do that things fall into place. Before I found my charming prince, I spent a long time on my own and grew immensely. I was happy with who I was all by myself and when I least expected it I found my perfect complement. My favorite quote from your post today: "We should not be in search of someone who will complete us. Completing ourselves is our job, responsibility and in a grand way, a blessing". Amazing! Thank you for such a great post! :)DEva Weddingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03412898694051346277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-6433677759833726342011-06-27T16:23:57.641-07:002011-06-27T16:23:57.641-07:00Joy - Thank you for sharing your experience.

I truly believe that those who may not understand how it is possible to be comfortable without being attached ask such a question out of ignorance, not necessarily to hurt (at least that's is what I tell myself, but I do believe it). If nothing else it is that happy single people are perplexing and we pique a curiosity that people can't help ask about. It really is a shift in understanding, but as long as we handle the answer we give with integrity and not take it personally (as their question reflects their thoughts), we can take it as a compliment.<br />Thank you again for your comment.The Simply Luxurious Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06288681334499771945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-53982537429561378072011-06-27T16:19:47.061-07:002011-06-27T16:19:47.061-07:00This is a super breath taking read!

As much as I would like one, I don't want to compromise my personal integrity in a desperate search for one. I wouldn't mind having a boyfriend, but I have to say I love my "single-ness" and my own personal freedom to pursue and do whatever I want. I am happy just being, surrounded by wonderful friends and family.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09749027762662012409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-43181329794241422472011-06-27T08:37:15.459-07:002011-06-27T08:37:15.459-07:00Yonks - thank you for sharing your experience and ...Yonks - thank you for sharing your experience and advice - personal stories are always full of lessons.

The best advice I ev...I am 100% in agreement here! The best advice I ever had was when I was 33, feeling lonely and thinking I should have a man in my life. My friend Sandy told me to get on with my own life, buy a horse and take your mind of looking for Mr. Right. She said that owning a horse was all encompassing so I would not have the time to think about men. Boy, was she right. Within 12 months I was married. We have now been married for 20 years. I stopped looking so I think that made me seem less desperate and more attractive to the opposite sex. Pheremones are wierd things. As Shannon says, go out have a blast and stop looking. It will come to you!<br />Happy days :-)<br />Dianne<br />XOXOYONKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02659751063643621817noreply@blogger.com
