Girls, We Are Worthy

Despite cougar women and the new millennium thing, or the seeming greater ratio of women to men, I tell my single pretty girlfriends that no matter what age you find yourself in, (biological clock, tick -tock), you deserve to be pursued, wooed, court-ed and given the time in the world. We are worthy, because:                                                    1. Nature willed it. I’m just not sure, if it was John Gray or Dr. Phil or Tyra , who said these:[/caption]

…in the process of procreation think of the legendary number of sperm cells running after one egg cell” or something to that effect.

• 1-1. So the next time a guy thinks he is such a hottie and you are but trash, think of the greater number of him, running after that just ONE part of you.
• 1-2. You are unique and special -even nature cannot help but agree, so let him court you and not you, him.

2. Greg Behrendt said that the guy should not be too busy to neglect you, should there be someone busy that would be you, because “you will be too busy being adored.”

• 2-1. “Where the heart is unwilling, it will find a thousand excuses, and where it isn’t, it will find a thousand ways.”
•  
• 2-2. Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone, YES?… then came the i-phone, you phone and they phone, so why doesn’t he?

3. My childhood friend’s lawyer husband’s words, stuck in my head , “It is always the thrill of the chase” was his answer to the question, on why men court the same girl, who sometimes, do not necessarily appear extraordinary, in terms of beauty, talent and physique.

• 3-1. ” Gentlemen start your engines”, give him that race…
• 3-2. Even cheques are not made available all the time, so do not be.
• 3-3. Just as it is of sugar and petroleum, be scarce, so he may hoard your kind and search for you, wherever you are.
• 3-4 The rosary has five mysteries, so why shouldn’t you have at least one?

The person who truly appreciates you, will give his best to make you happy, in the same way that you try to make him happy .

He will be very careful not hurt you. He will make you feel important, just as you, give him importance.

The person will come. He will. Most importantly, pray for wisdom that you may know what His plans for you are.

I was single for a long time, your proverbial N.B.S.B. And being single does not equate to being alone and lonely. Most definitely not.I had a very fun time.I was busy helping my family.

I went out with my girls…loving Segafredo, Italiannis, Red Box and watching movies at Glorietta 4 (hello Trix, Marica and Joy)..

…meeting up with my cuz Jas at the Coffee Bean…

…going to David’s for hair spa. meeting up with my best friend Iris at UP.

…playing badminton with the WIC girls. hanging out at Powerbooks Greenbelt.

…attending community with the Emmanuel Prayer Group at Greenbelt chapel.

…talking to my mom & sisters on the phone.

…or just piggin’ out, staying in the apartment with my flat mates and watching American Idol.

I met my man at thirty. I was highly elated to walk the aisle at thirty-one.

I was changing diapers at thirty-three.

Presently, I am planning to have some more of this joy that they call kids.

Those different milestones in my life gave me different kinds of ” HAPPY” .

So whether you are single or married, always put value on yourself and know what your worth is.

Besides, as my Lola Inday, in Catarman, Camiguin would say,

“You are a creation of God, your whole being, your knowledge, and everything that is you…so does God make something ugly and worthless?”

( her words actually were in Bisaya of course,
” Gi gama gud ka sa ginoo, imong pagkatawo, imong hibalo, ug tanan tanan nga nasa imo, ag himo ba diay ang ato Ginoo sa pangit ug walay pulos”)
