I've had the same prompting a few times this last week, since my heart has reached some closure with the Jeff thing. Not sure if I ever mentioned it, but I did finally hear from him. A very short text telling me to stop calling him. That was all I wanted. Some recognition.
Anyways, back to the topic at hand. I've had this prompting to make a list of what I want in my husband. I used to have a list many years ago, filled with lots of physical attributes. Somewhere along the line that list was abandoned. I think because I felt it was to superficial and/or unattainable. Either way, if you don't have a standard to uphold, sometimes you end up settling for less. Part of the reason I think I've had this prompting is the person who I knew to be Jeff contained many qualities that I adored and enjoyed. He was essentially what I wanted and it was hard for me to imagine myself spending my life with anyone different.
So I made a list this morning. And I'll have you know, there's only three physical attributes listed; height, broad shoulders and good teeth. All the others are personality traits. I'm quite proud of myself. :) For not making a laundry list of the traits of Bradley Cooper, Johnny Depp, Gerard Butler and the likes of other similar men.
The rest of the list is for my eyes only. God knows what I want and I believe He'll be faithful in providing it at the right time.
