Why Hardworking & Independent People Are The Best Yet Hardest To Date
https://odysseyimages.s3.amazonaws.com/cropped_BJ81hwvwf.jpeg

First off, let's start with why we're difficult to date.. It takes A LOT for us to leave the house outside of work. Yes, we know it sounds crazy, but we love our job and we're compassionate about our work. However, sometimes we forget that we're supposed to have a life outside of work. That's what seems impossible for us.. We work a lot because we're single and it keeps us busy, so the minute someone walks into our life we have a hard time trying to adjust to that routine. It sounds so simple and small, but it's difficult for us to do. We literally have been single for so long that we become over the top independent. It's tough for us to rely on someone when we've been alone and living our own successful life. Don't let our tough ways fool you, we do want to love someone, care for someone, spend time with someone and build something! If you want to know a plus about us; it would be we're STABLE, we can make SACRIFICES and we put our EVERYTHING into things that mean the most to us. I understand we come with many layers like an onion, but once you peel this caliber of a person- you're the luckiest person on Earth.. Believe it or not.

Now, I'm going to get personal here about the work aspect of this. I personally wake up at 5:30-6:00 every day. I show up to work no later than 7 and work till 8-8:30 at night. Please look at the hours I spend at work and away from home or if I had someone in my life- look how much time I'm away from building with them. Majority of my friends that are married work 8-4. They get 4-5 more hours to spend time with their loved ones. Here's where I prove how we can sacrifice. We would gladly cut our hours back a wee-bit to be with you. Believe me, we come with many gears and we can go into tunnel vision to complete our tasks in time. 

We get it that we're difficult to date, hard to understand or live BORING compared to most. We love deeply, work hard every day to be the best we can be and try to be successful so that one day we don't ever have to worry if we're enough or can support a couple more mouths.

Sincerely,

The girl that's known for working too much.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
