The 90s

So today I was reminded how great it was to grow up in the 90s! Today on the way to Blowing Rock my roommates and I were jamming out to some Spice Girls and Nsync. Two of my favorite bands in the world. The first concert was I ever went to was a Nsync concert, and believe me I thought that I was in heaven. It just reminded me how good the music really was back then and how different it is these days. I felt like back then every song I heard on the radio I could relate to somehow. I miss those times. The times when my room was completely covered in Nsync memorabilia and I lived for the days when a new cd of theirs came out. It just so crazy how much our lives has changed, but how the moment I hear one song it can take me back to being 14 years old and being with the person I loved the most at the time. All these memories come flooding back, and I think that I am finally at the point where I can look back on those memories and smile. I can remember how great they were and how at that time I didn't have a care in the world. Also the television shows during the 90s were so different from how they are today. Boy Meets World was one of my favorites because it was just so good and so realistic expect for maybe the love that Cory and Topanga shared that started when they were young. I remember watching that show and thinking I wanted a love like theirs. So here are so of the many reasons why I loved growing up in the 90's...

1) Boy Meets World

2) Beverly Hills 90210

3)Clueless-a classic

4)Dawson's Creek

5)Nsync

6) Spice Girls

7) Achy Break Heart-which my cousin and I wore that song out because we played it 100 times a day.

8)These were the days when children actually played outside. I remember my mom making us go outside almost every day after school if we didn't have dance or something.

9)Dance-one of the greatest memories of my childhood. Some of the best times in my life.

10)Life-in general just seemed much easier during the 90s.

Being a 90s kid was great and I am so glad to have grown up during this time!

This is so Good!

I thought it was so funny when I ran across this article the other day especially because I have been so depressed because everyone is getting married or starting new relationships. This article really opened my eyes and made me see that the only reason why there is not a man in my life right now is because I am not ready. God is not done making me the "right person." When I look at things from that point of view I am totally content. I would never want to rush into something and then it not work because neither one of us were who we should have been. God is preparing and He is preparing my husband! Can't wait to see it all come together one of these days! Just wanted to share this with all of you. Enjoy!

My advice for single people

Monday February 21st, 2011 – Permalink | Personal Development

There’s a lot of advice I could give to single and dating people.

How to be content in this season you’re in.
The kind of person you should be looking to marry.
Boundaries for when you’re dating.

All of those are good and necessary. But there’s something that most Christians completely miss that’s an essential principle for optimal relationships and marriages. If you don’t get this, it doesn’t matter who you date because it will be a fraction of the relationship God meant for you. And your marriage to them will be too.

Happiness is not finding the right person. It’s being the right person.

I’ve seen countless Christians sabotage their marriages not because they married the wrong person but because when they got married they weren’t the right person for the other person. Not in their chemistry, but in their character.

If two half people get together and they’re not complete in Christ, they don’t make a whole person. They subtract from each other rather than adding to each other and they become more miserable.

There’s only one half you’re responsible for right now. And that’s your half.

Stop looking for the person of your dreams and start becoming someone another person is dreaming about. Make someone else’s dreams become a reality.

A lot of single people make lists of what they want in the person they’re looking for. That’s fine. Just make sure that if the person you’re looking for had the same list, they’d find you.

You may be waiting in this season of your life for God to bring the right person.
Or you may be wondering if the person you’re dating is the right person.

He will do it.
He will reveal it.

In the meantime, be what you’re looking for.
