True confessions

Ok, I'm about to say something out loud, well, type something on my blog. I've been thinking. Yeah, yeah, I know. I am a firm believer that when I say something and put it out there that whatever I say will come to fruition. This whole travel thing and the way I live my life right now is a product of my intentions. I've set goals and because I put them out there, they happen. So far my goals have focused on me and what I want to achieve personally, but as difficult as this is for me to admit, I am ready for the next step. What is that step, you ask? The step of sharing all this awesome, cool stuff with an awesome, cool guy. Since "the summer of Lisa" in 2007 I have focused on me, what I want, but now, almost 4 years later I am ready. So, here I am admitting something that is difficult for a feminist to admit. I am ready to be in a healthy, fun, adventurous relationship.

I've been thinking about this for a while, but given my past choices in men, I've been afraid to put this thought on "paper".

Now comes the hard part. You know that I consider myself a late bloomer, so it comes as no surprise that it's taken me until I'm 39 to figure all of this out. Now I just need to find another late bloomer (I'm kind of an age-ist), who loves to travel, likes adventure, is funny, honest, passionate about life and is not obsessed with watching sports or playing video games. Online dating creeps me out, so I'm going to have to put myself out there the old fashioned way.


Wish me luck...

We do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and remember being in a good relationshsip is never 50/50... it is mostly 90/10 . Sometimes you are on the 90 side and sometimes on the 10 side... and that is what makes it work.. I also know words can never be taken back so always think long and hard before you say something.. words hurt forever, but thinking is not a problem. I had a great friend who never reached this goal because she was lookign for Mr perfect.. he does not exist becasue no one is perfect.. not even us :-)
God Bless and may all your wishing come true ~
