Almost Midnight 12-6-10

So, I've never really thought i had enough interesting stuff in my life to start a blog.... but out of boredom i think i may just give it a try. So here goes... Tonight I've been feeling very nostalgic. I keep thinking about the times when i was with someone... no one imparticular, just... when i had someone who was special to me. I suppose it has a lot to do with the holidays. The holidays do a wonderful job of reminding me that I'm single. Being single really is not a bad thing... but i do miss certain parts of being a "couple". I want someone to hold hands with, someone to take with me to my family Christmas get together. A best friend to talk to and that understands me. I'm really in no hurry to be in another relationship but once in a while, like tonight, it gets to me. There is something romantic about all the Christmas lights and the snowy nights that get me thinking. And i watched an old couple while out Christmas shopping the other day... The old man got out and walked around to the other side of the vehicle and opened the door for his elderly wife. Then even though he had to walk through a 3 in. deep mud puddle he kept holding her hand and walked right through it. The way this couple looked at each other just did a lot to show me what i want in the long term. I want to be married to someone for all of my married life. So what makes a healthy relationship? Is there something that I'm doing wrong? What does God have planned for me? Right now i have no idea... but, i think i like it that way.
