I've always wondered if I was ever gonna meet "The one." I thought that I would meet him in a coffee shop, or I would bump into him. And he would ask for my number, or I would go up to him and say.
"Hey, I think you're cute. Do you wanna go out with me?"
I've always tried planning my whole entire life. However, I've learned that it's not always like that. You have to take risks and be be able to manage them as they come along the way.
When I asked him to go to the coffee shop, I never knew it would have gone this far in our relationship. Honestly, I thought he was just gonna end it off or was not interested in me.
I had second thoughts in asking him out. Like I said I didn't know how this was going to go. But my mom always encouraged me and told me to take that risk so I won't regret it later in life. And I'm glad that she pushed me because I wouldn't be where I am right now if it wasn't for her.
Looking back I never knew I had that in me being so bold and asking him out. I guess it just came to me naturally it didn't seem bold at the time. It was more casual and obviously I was nervous but I did it. And I don't regret doing it.
As later months came by, I started to get to know him more. And then got me thinking that because I took that risk. And we're dating now. It was either gonna be the best happy ending ever. Or the worst heartbreak ever it was. I live my life with him or it wasn't gonna work out. It's scary. The world and reality is scary. But it doesn't mean that that should stop you from taking those risks and trusting God. In helping you take those decisions. I remember praying every night asking to see. If this was gonna be right for me..
That if this risk that I took was worth it or not..
I was patient, and slowly, but surely, things were starting to be a little bit clearer. The future wasn't so scary anymore because I knew that in my gut. I really wanted to be with him that even though I knew that there was gonna be struggles. And I knew that it wasn't going to be perfect. That I still wanted to do it with him. And he made my life better than it was.
And I didn't want to lose that because it was like. I found my other half...
