It
was a very hard decision to make. It took me at least four years to finally
make this decision that seemed so impossible. Yes! I have made the decision and
I have no regrets whatsoever. I know you are wondering what this decision could
be. Just follow me as we take it slowly. I am writing this to myself and every
other young man or woman who is still single out there as a way of encouraging
you and I do hope you pick something out of my thoughts.
I
know you have struggled over this subject severally for a very long time now
and the struggle may apparently be in motion. What you actually want is indeed
a good thing but I need you to understand that whatever is worth doing should
be done rightly.
Irrespective
of who you are, your age or where you come from, the focus on finding your
significant other is an all time discourse for everyone. Like one rightly said
it is the most important career decision anyone will ever make in life and as
such I believe it should be done properly.
You
will agree with me that the issue of being in a relationship is a topic that
never leaves the conversation among young folks and if you are not in one in
our today’s world, it begins to look like you need some medical attention. I really must say that the pressure that
comes with this is totally alarming and uncalled for.
People
act as if being single is a sort of predicament or disease and please don’t get
me wrong relationships are not wrong but I will encourage that rather than
jumping into something that you may lose your peace about, it will be more appropriate
when you are ready.
There
is so much to enjoy when you are single and alone and I want you to embrace it
as I have decided. It is a good time to learn, grow and prepare yourself for
the future and I wouldn’t want you to blow all that up.
The
singular reason that it’s happening for others does not mean it must happen for
you at the same time. The act of whining that all your friends are in one
relationship or the other and you are not is totally immature. Let me gladly
say to you that those other people are the most inaccurate measurement device
you will ever hold up to yourself.
I
have heard people say things like this is the best time to find someone to
start life with and while there may be nothing wrong with that thought, I
believe life is what we make out of it and not what someone else thinks we
ought to make it. Besides, do you really need anyone to be by your side before
you start living the life of your dreams?
Some
persons have also said you can find true happiness when you are with someone
but that is just a myth. If you can’t be a happy person when you are alone, am
sorry to say that you may never be happy with anyone. I think it is far better
to stay with no one than to stay with the wrong person. A wise man once said
that those who fly high most times fly alone.
I
have been a victim of this undue pressure and recently, I just felt that the
way am going about this thing may bring a result that wouldn’t go well like we
say in the local parlance. E no go go well at all!!!
I
began to say to myself that there is nothing to be stressed about my current
relationship status and it doesn’t in any way hold me back from accomplishing
great things. If you are single, you are
just where God wants you to be and like I have decided until HE prompts me
otherwise, I have no regrets and there is nothing to lose.
The
simple challenge all these years has been the inability to hand over the
subject to God so he can make the best decision for me and now I am willing to
trust him believing that he won’t disappoint me. Forget! When the time reach, you no go dull the package. Many young
people are willing to surrender every other area of their life but not this
one.
There
are many things to look up in our life so don’t let this subject consume you
and ruin what God has in store for you. Don’t let people pressure you into any
relationship no matter what. Don’t let anyone tell you that there is a flaw
with being single. There are many single boys and girls doing wonderful things
with their lives. Don’t let anyone make you think being single is inferior. The
fact that you are dating a boy or one girl doesn’t make you better or complete
in any way compared to someone who is single.
Let
me say that this is the best time as a young and vibrant youth or teen to use
your potentials to bless God and bless lives and you would be a failure if you
allow the pressure of being in a relationship ruin God’s agenda for you.
I
know that God will lead us to the right person at the right time but until then
keep preparing and garner some value to your life. I will see you at the top.
