Season of Singleness

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE!

I don't really celebrate Valentines Day. Partly because there's no boo to celebrate it with *cries* but also because I believe in showing your love and appreciation for others, EVERYDAY. Despite that, I love the Joy that the holiday brings. Seeing other people happy, makes me happy. I hope you've had a great day whether you've spent it with a loved one; friends, family or by yourself.

Today's post is going to stick with the same theme that I'm sure you've read a lot about this month. LOVE. *Alexa play Minnie Riperton - Loving You*

As you can tell by the title, this post is going to be about my 'Season of Singleness'. You're probably thinking, what in the world is 'Season of Singleness'?. If you're a Christian, you'll know exactly what it is. A season of singleness is exactly what's on the tin. It's remaining single at a time in your life, whilst focusing on your personal growth and lifestyle. It's riding solo, completing the missions you want to complete before you meet your other half. Obviously there is no way of knowing WHEN you'll meet your other half but the aim is to remain single before you make any commitments with them.

Having a season of singleness can be so beneficial to both you as an individual and your future spouse. You have so much time to work on your weaknesses, strengthen your strengths and learn to be content with life, whether you have someone to share it with or not. I could make a whole separate post on that, but today we're going to be focusing on what I want to get out of my own journey.

I've been single my whole life. Yup, a whole 19-years. I've had my little flings and what not as a kid, talked to some guys here and there but obviously that doesn't count. I've never been in a serious relationship. Partly because I'm super picky but also because I know it's just not my time yet. Being single and having a season of singleness are different to me. Being single is just a status, but a season of singleness is an actual period in your life. That period for me has begun this year. I started my year with the intention to dedicate 2019 to myself. Sounds diva-ish but I promise it isn't. I want to actively go out of my way to focus on my character, lifestyle and mindset.

Since this blog is a documentation of my journey to and through adulthood, I thought it would be a good idea to share the goals I want to meet during this season in my life. I don't know how long I will remain single for. It may be a year, three years, even ten, but I know God's timing is the best timing. In the meantime I want to spend 12 months meeting personal goals and serving others.
