being single means freedom!

this is for all the single out there. actually, i just copied this from my sister's blog...
just want to share it.Ü

All your life, you had specific dreams about
what your family life would be like when you
finally married.
You were so intent on what you wanted; you
even made a list of qualities and
characteristics you were looking for in a
spouse, in a home, in your job, in your
children.
But time passed, and that person you were
so intent on didn't come along. All of your
friends married, had children, had beautiful
homes. And still you were single.
You prayed and prayed and prayed for that
person to come along, but nothing
happened. You had a good job.
You served in your church. You spent daily
time with the Lord in prayer and studying the
Word.
You dedicated your life to serving God in
every way possible, but still nothing.
So you decided to take matters into your own
hands, and you began an active search for a
mate.
And within a short period, you met someone
who almost fit the bill.
Almost.
Sure, there were a few things missing, a few
rusty spots in that person's character.
But, after all, no one is perfect. Maybe your
goals were too high.
Maybe you'd been asking for the impossible.
Maybe this was the person God wanted for
you so your character could grow through
dealing with his or her failings.

To the single folks out there, this is for you.
Single means you have the time to grow and
be the person you want to be.
Single gives you space to grow. Sometimes,
it is harder to grow when you are too close to
someone. Trees are planted far apart so
they can spread their branches and become
strong as they mature.
Single means learning to live by yourself.
However, that is no more difficult than
learning to live with somebody else.
Single means freedom. You are free to
spend a week's vacation on the beach, to
take computer courses, to work late on an
interesting project, to spend the day in bed
with a good book or simply with a person
who has read one.
Single means learning not to need a
man/woman to make your life meaningful
but learning to live with a man/woman
because you want to be with him/her.
Single means that sometimes you will
wonder why you will bite your lip and feel
wistful and wonder if marriage is better.
Ironically, yet quite happily, single is feeling
good about being in control of your life.
It is liking and respecting who you are and
why you are.
Single is realizing that being married is not
necessarily better, it is merely different.
Single means that there could be something
wonderful around the corner and you can
take advantage of it.
Being single means you are free to love
again.
Are you?
