A Dream of Mine Came True Today

Today I became a PADI certified open diver. This had been a dream of mine since I was a teenager and today was the realization of that dream. And what a way for it to happen, too!

My friend Claire and I had a checklist of what we wanted to see during our checkout dives: a clown fish (a.k.a. Nemo), a school of fish, a shark, and a sea turtle. We got to see all of them and more! It was like the sea was celebrating with me.

Another dream will be coming true in a few months. To say I am grateful is an understatement.

Simple Pleasure

Hearing his voice when I least expected it. My heart didn't just skip a beat. It soared.

Writing what I Wonder

I've had many people violently reacting about why I'm still single. Each time I tell them - assure them - that I'm alright.

I then tell them how I turned down a marriage proposal to prove that my current singlehood is something I chose and not a status I had to accept due to circumstance.

That's not to say I want to be single. I would rather be single at this point in my life and be hopeful that I will find the right person.

I would rather be single and hopeful than trapped in an unhappy relationship.
