An Open Letter To My Future Wife

This is a tough one for any guy to write. Shoot, this is a tough one for anyone to write. The real shocker will be that I'm dating someone much less getting married to someone. I'll send invitations and people will be like,"This is an early April Fool's Day joke, right?" But all joking aside, I'm about to pour my heart out. Here it goes.

To My Future Wife,

This ain't gonna be easy. I'm annoying, I'm clingy and I'm super sappy. I'm secretly (not so secret anymore) an emotional guy. I love to hear things like, "You are looking good today!" and "Your singing voice is beautiful." I may not always seem that way because I get super awkward when someone compliments me, but I love it. I sing way too much and way too loud, I whistle all the time and I'm kinda messy when it comes to keeping my room clean. But all that aside, I will love you like no other. I'm a person that when I love, I love hard. When I fall, I fall hard. I pray every day for you to come into my life and for God to show me that you are the woman for me. Once that happens, well the next part will take forever cause I suck at flirting. Basically, I'm gonna just try to talk to you a lot and then randomly I'll ask you on a date super awkwardly in hopes that you'll say yes. Just trust me, give me that chance. I'm pretty good when it comes to dates.

I'll super nervous, but I'll compliment you over and over and have flowers and... well just trust me, I try hard when it comes to dates. Also, I'm super dorky. I laugh at everything under the sun, and I have multiple laughs... each one weirder than the next. Another thing, I know I'm not exactly the cutest guy, but what I lack in looks, I make up for in corniness (I'm hilarious, everyone denies it, but I know it's true).

I know God has you planned and waiting for me and when that time comes I'll know, but I'm definitely ready for you to be here now. I dream of a life where I live in a nice house with a wife, kids and dogs. (Dogs are a must, that's a deal breaker). Seriously though, I have pointed out so many insecurities to say this... the relationship I picture having is one centered in Christ, prayer, love through a building relationship and finding our place with each other.

I know you're out there and I'll be here patiently waiting and when you come along... well, you'll have your biggest fan, a shoulder to cry on, a listening ear, a heart full of love, a guy who will literally try to learn any song so he can play it and sing it to you, and, most importantly, a man who is seeking and striving after Christ and has found you on the way.

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.

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.
