The MAKINGS of ME.

Today is 26th birthday, and I am beyond blessed. less than a year ago, I was a lost soul I felt like, but now I have gotten closer to god, family and friends, let go of negative people and things, and everything has turned around for me. I was baptized Sunday, and the message before my baptism was "Fulfillment in Jesus", for a long time I continued to say I was missing something, but what I was truly missing was making Jesus number one.

It took me two years to at least feel comfortable enough to "date", and not feel like I was cheating on him. Honestly, I have tried my hardest to be in a serious relationship since then, I have never been the type to "casually date." 2014 , I "talked" to someone, I dated in high school, and the whole year and he did nothing but play the "be patient, we will be together we just need to work on ourselves" game, eventually I got tired of taking someone so serious who didn't do the same for me and cut all ties. 2015 , I did the "talking" to someone thing again, it seems I always more serious than they were. I was doing things as if I was in a relationship, they made me feel that way so I treated them accordingly. Once they got comfortable, things got c...
