reflections on a single female

Everyone reaches that age when all your friends are getting married and you're attending wedding after wedding. I wonder...what if you're the last one? Wouldn't you feel left out? Do people scramble to be the first to go? In this day and age, it seems like there's no real competition anymore. Most people are so caught up getting their careers together that there's no time to settle down, let alone "look&find" their significant other. Traditional Korean parents are learning to adjust to their second gen children and maybe even accept the fact that their child will never be wed. Sad? you decide.

As for me, I am in no position or age to get married now but I do think about it a lot. I don't think it's very good for my mental health. The answer: pray.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
Jeremiah 29:11-13


Good to know there's a plan. Believe it or not, your life is already planned out for you. SO stop trying to control it!
