We Only Have One Life!

Recently I was introduced to someone new, she was young and full of life. Over the months we talked on the phone, passing comment on the weather and other chit-chatty things.  One day last year she mentioned she was pregnant.  Our conversations switched to one of babies, pregnancy and morning sickness as she enjoyed being pregnant and looked forward to the birth. She was sickeningly healthy throughout her term.  I remember joking one day that she was lucky, remembering how ill I had been with my first.

Last July she had a healthy little baby boy. He was born by cesarean section and unfortunately it was then that the doctors found out that she had an aggressive form of cancer which needed immediate treatment. The sad news is that 3 week s ago.she died. She never left hospital, the cancer was to advanced.  That little baby will never lie in his mothers arms.

Happy Single People Are Magnets To Their Opposite

I have many friends who are single. Some have been single for sometime others a little less and no matter whenever we get together you can guarantee the topic of conversation that they always get around to is, how miserable life is at the moment with no one special in their life. Seriously, it does appear to me that there is a common belief that being single is a transitional state and that finding a partner completes everything in life. Maybe it will although being in a relationship never guaranteed anything, especially when it comes from a need.

I believe that when you are single there is a reason for this. Just because you say you want to be in a relationship does not mean you are ready for one. Think about it if it was as simple as wanting you would be in a relationship by now. So what is stopping you and please don't say it's because there is no one out there. The last statistics I read said there are about about 7.6m singles over the age of 16 year of which 2.5m were aged 45-64years and the split of male to female was roughly half. So what is your reason?
