I have still so much to do.
So much to see.
So many more people to meet and people to love and adore.

I have so much more exploring to do.
Exploring myself, figuring out what makes my heart race or slow down.
I have so much to learn about me.
And at 20, I believed that whole heartedly, I had met that one person for me.
But as life always comes with surprises and turnarounds, fate was not on my side in that relationship.
It didnt last long and ultimately resulted in finding myself in another relationship.

But since graduating college, Ive been immersed, spun around, and entranced by the dating scene.
And you know what?
Its more than just an experience.
Its more than just going on dates.
Its lesson after lesson on what values and wants I need my future partner to have.
And I think thats a pretty awesome thing to know about yourself.
Of course, its not the same for everybody.
And it makes complete sense for them.
But not for me, and Im not mad about it.
I have still so much to do.
So much to see.
So many more people to meet and people to love and adore.
I have so much more exploring to do.
Exploring myself, figuring out what makes my heart race or slow down.
I have so much to learn about me.
So much to grasp onto and to soak up what life has to give me.
Of course, I want to get married in the future.
And who knows, maybe my soulmate will show up tomorrow.
But, for now, Im more than content living the way I am.
Im not saying Im against being in a relationship.
Im not saying everyone should stay single forever.
I would just rather wait than to rush it.
I would rather have some time on my own first, before settling down.
I would rather get to know myself and others on a deeper level.
I would rather be my best self, before I found the one.
It also takes a hell of a lot of courage and grit.
Its absolutely beautiful, and worth all of the pit falls and dips.
But, self love is just the same if not even harder.
Id rather work on myself, for myself and by myself for a little while longer.
Ive still got a lot of learning, leaving, and loving left to do.
