The Pursuit of Happiness

Thursday, December 28th, 2006

I saw the movie, The Pursuit of Happiness.  It was really good.  I cried throughout the movie.  It was a bit hard for me to watch as a single mom. 

I am so glad that things turned out well, and I hope that I will have the same success story in the end too.  This past year has been such a whirl wind for me, and it’s been such a blessing at the same time.  I am grateful the life experience that God has given me.  It’s very gracious of God to give me the provisions that he has given me. 

I have been talking to Ken again, he finally called and I am not going to dwell on him as much.  I have way too much to do with my time. 

Waiting for him to call.

OK, I’ve been on a few dates with this guy, and he hasn’t called me in a few days.  I really like him because he is smart, funny, open minded and very understanding.  The problem with him is that he doesn’t call, and I realize that he is probably not that into me because if he was, he would be calling me more often. 

I am up very early, and my baby is still asleep.  I can’t go back to sleep so I just wait till she wakes up.  Before I used to be able to sleep in.  But now, I can’t stay asleep for anything. 

The Holidays are here and it’s been very hard for me emotionally.  I know that I chose to have Ayanna, and I chose to keep her.  Yet I keep feeling lonely because I want to have a husband for me and a father for Ayanna.  The one she has right now is very selfish and self centered and has abusive tendencies.  I tend to look at other people around me and become envious of their lives with their husbands.  But after a talk with a co-worker at my internship, she tells me that the grass is not always greener on the other side.  The thought of that in my mind makes me feel a bit better and my heart feels lighter.  I decided to do more walking than I already do.  I walk to my internship and I decided I would try to walk around town with Ayanna in the stroller or go to the park and walk around the tracks.  I’m still 135-140lbs.  I keep fluctuating between 135-140.  I just want to be 120.  (Sigh)  "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can."

Living life

Wednesday, December 20th, 2006

I guess I’m not really supposed to be with a life partner.  I must be meant to be single for the rest of my life. 

I’m in my winter break and have one more semester to go for school. 

When will someone come to sweep me off my feet and marry me?
